President Donald Trump - J.D. Vance Administration

[dovervolz]

Of course, the loons on the left celebrate this 100% bc they're radical lunatics.
Radical democrats like seeing further destruction of the USA bc Trump's in Office.
Radical loons on the left have ODD opposition disorder on of whatever POTUS is for.

Trespassing?

I'm betting someone paid to have those shirts printed that aren't part of the group.

Paid operation, like many of the ones before (been failing for quite some time now)... Evil just doesn't get that she is the butt of the joke at this point.

I read somewhere it was a clean CR.

If so it needs to be passed and this can only backfire on them even more.

 

[lawgator1]

Guess it depends on who you are listening to, and how they define "Clean CR." Surprise.

Edit: My reading would be "no," but I don't think the cuts planned in the CR are so egregious as to warrant a shutdown.

Further Edit: If the Rs really did include cuts, that seems sensible, as a clean CR would keep in place the Biden spending levels, which I doubt many Rs (or their constituents) were in favor of. I would prefer Congress do their job and set a budget, but we gave that up some time ago. (Both budgets and Congress doing their jobs.)

House Passes Budget CR in Final Days Before Shutdown

A day after the House Rules Committee reported a six-month government funding stopgap to the full chamber, the House engaged in further debate on the federal budget proposal from Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA), which now goes to the Senate after clearing the lower chamber.

There was a GOP Senator on CNBC this am, don't ask me who, who said the plan was to keep the government funded through September and by then have a fully briefed spending bill in place. Makes sense.

Then I heard a Dem admin official say that this CR in some way grants power to DOGE that otherwise would not be there and this is a sticking point, ie it's not really clean.

I dont know, just recounting what I heard.

I have not been able to follow this closely, is it a clean CR? If so, the Dems should pass it, I agree.

I actually agree with the Dems on this. Shut the MFer down until they can pass a real budget. No more CRs

Trump threatens France with 200% wine and Champagne tariffs

"This will be great for the Wine and Champagne businesses in the U.S.," Trump wrote.

Purchase wine from Cali wineries.

It will get real now. I’m sure all of our Ukrainiacs are celebrating this move.

Radicals on the left have ODD (opposition defiant disorder) of whatever POTUS is for.

White liberal women have been trying to find a cause ever since blacking out their Instagram for a day didn’t end racism.

No falsehoods detected.

Isn't this something like arsonists claiming firemen have a "weird and bizarre" obsession with putting out fires?

See immediately above yours, it may be more complicated than that.

I’m sure it is but nevertheless we should not accept funding the government by CRs.

A number of Dems in leadership have hitched their train to social issues that affect a very small part of the population, and which are very off-putting to the larger population. The much larger problem for them is that an even larger number of Dems in leadership were completely asleep at the switch as the GOP in the last cycle successfully portrayed the entirety of the party as obsessed with paying for like a dozen surgeries and letting, what, 10 males, compete in women's sports.

Its not in my view a very fair characterization, especially of the entirety of the party, but the Dems in terms of messaging have seemed to have a hard time distancing themselves from these issues.

Everyone in the country says they want a budget with line items. And the party in control says they want it. Each time. And blames the other for it not happening.

Until it is time to write it, and then it goes off the rails and too many well-heeled interests then want to cloud the picture and we are back to the CR approach.

I put it in another thread but if the D's can't figure out a way to get their liabilities stuffed in the closet before '28 it's going to be a problem.

Not a single democrat in the senate voted for the protection of women and girls in sports act. They continue to put themselves in this position. GOP is just pointing it out. And the characterization is accurate

I’m blaming the Rs, they own this crap.

Both do.

This pattern of demanding a fully fleshed-out budget, gnashing of teeth over a CR, and then never doing the budget, is a fault of both parties for a long time. Here is actual footage of the first one.

 

[swampfoxfan]

Yeah that'll show Trump a thing or two. TDS is still running rampant w/the loon party. .
Democrats are wanting to cut their own throats further. Their approval is at 25%.

Are they still eating dogs and cats in ohio?

Of course, we are in a recession haven’t you heard.

Trump takes his plan to end birthright citizenship to the Supreme Court

The administration wants the court to limit the scope of lower court rulings against his executive order that would end automatic birthright citizenship.

www.nbcnews.com

Trump administration going to the Supremes to try to make headway on the birthright citizenship issue.

Its really hard not to view this position as reflecting a racial bias against Latinos. While you can argue that illegal immigrants coming into the country should be deported because they are here illegally, and the administration may claim some illegal immigrants have criminal histories, a child born here is not at fault, at any level, nor has he/she committed a crime.

It just seems designed to penalize young people for something over which they have no control.

Corrupt dirty filthy democrats are everywhere.
They're just like the rats living in a sewer.
