It still tickles me that the Democrats created the cloture rule that is preventing them from passing anything. It's loving hilarious.

lmao that the House is off for the entire month before, as well as week of, the elections.

six weeks of paid vacay over two months lol, and coming after five weeks off in aug/sept.

I know it's bc they'll be campaigning (and, more importantly, fundraising) but just lolol at their lack of even pretending to care about passing anything.

I met a woman from Rwanda on bumble, maybe she'll marry me and take me to a country that isn't poo poo.

Real talk though I was trying to learn how they've been doing in the 21st century. All I had heard before hand was that they had recovered remarkably well considering, and that they were pretty welcoming to refugees which is pretty neat.

I do give the Rwandan government some credit for at least investing a lot of that blood money into stuff that actually helps the people. More than a lot of other governments do. But y'know, it's still at the expense of the people of some other country.

the “to be fair” here would be that congresspeople have two offices - one in their district and one in Washington that they split time between so the calendar only shows when they are working in Washington as opposed to their district.

Hear me out, but I hope the Democrats win in November.

I want to see those thousand yard stares as they realize they made a bunch of promises they are now on the hook for. I want to hear the wilder and wilder excuses for their inaction as the country continues to burn. I want more irate cries of $600+$1400 except even stupider.

I want at long last for the world to see them as they truly are, with nothing to hide behind in the end but themselves. Only then will their destruction be truly complete.

She's the Emma Watson for olds. She is an icon to them and supposed to always be on their side and if they don't agree with them on issues it's a betrayal.

It's a stretch to lay the blame anywhere but on Obama who promised then refused to codify it in 2008 and failed to fight for a justice nomination in 2016. Obviously RGB being a racist collection of cancers powered by hubris is a close second, it's still crazy to put it anywhere but on Obama since you can secondarily easily make the case that the entire (first lol) Trump administration was also a direct result of Obama.

the 2009 bill was a copy of a bill proposed in 1989 and 1993. the 1993 bill cleared committees but a Democratic majority in both houses (57 senators, 258 in the house) didn’t pass it for the democratic president to sign.
