You’re up Hakeem. Discharge Petition.
Only does anything with a two thirds majority. He’s not going to get that many Republicans to agree that the sun rises in the east, let alone go against their own petty tyrant leader.
The House doesn’t have filibuster rules like the Senate; nothing in the House requires two-thirds.
Must have gotten wrong information then, my apologies.
What a fucking wanker.
Problem is that the Speaker has a ton of power to set the legislative agenda in the House.
The other problem is that he’s a fucking wanker; meaning he’s producing a new generation of fucking wankers.
I do believe he was sent to us by God…
As a test, to see how long we’ll put up with bullshit before dragging our politicians into the streets and defend our freedom.
And we’re failing.
If anything, he’s an excellent example of Epicurus’ paradox. No omniscient, omnipotent, and benevolent god would ever allow creatures like him to wield such immense power.
They don’t care about the border. “The border” is a dog whistle for racism. If they cared, they wouldn’t have voted against the most recent bill. They would have spent actual money on illegal crossings. They would have earmarked funds for better holding facilities. The list goes on.
Illegal crossings really aren’t a huge issue. Most illegal immigrants enter legally and just don’t leave.
Yea, bigger problem is how fucked our ports of entry are at the moment. Not enough space or staff to process everything that crosses.
If this really is an invasion like the GOP wants to claim, let’s move some of that national “defense” budget into more ICE agents and more lawyers/judges in our immigration courts to process people. Let’s weed out these supposed invaders. (Psssst I’m willing to bet a lot of money that there won’t be any)
