JUST IN: U.S. troops bracing for retaliation after airstrikes

posted by majorsparkThere are already more than enough laws on the books to handle domestic issues. No need for anymore. History teaches us that these type of knee-jerk reactions end up being used by those with maliscious intent.
First thing I thought.

They may have to put him into assisted living this summer ; sad state of affairs.

I'm not pleased that we have all of these old people in positions of power (Biden, Pelosi, Schumar, etc) and that's been a problem for awhile. It seems like there's always a collection of geriatrics in the Congress. Our last presidential election offered us two guys older than 75. Not good for bringing new perspectives.
But if this video is your threshold for Joe needing assisted living, then you should add every president we've ever had to your list. They all do stuff like this and some do it often. I think Biden it too old for the office. But your argument (well, the argument you're repeating from your usual suspects of daily talking point sources) that he's in late stage dementia is not very solid.
But hey, I know you're an open-minded guy and you'll consider other points of view.
He is not in "late stage dementia", I don't believe; but he has early onset, at a minimum. He will not be doing any real press conferences.
Not sure what the details are here, but seems like maybe lowering the threshold for eligibility from $75k to something lower?
It was already a massively awful deal for taxpayers. $1.9t/330m is almost $6k per person. Not per adult. Not per taxpayer. Per person.

I think it moves the "phase out limits". So it starts at $75k, but ends at $80k. Joint filers start at $150k but phased out by $160k. No idea what the original phase out limits were. But yea, the bill is trash.
Got it, thanks for the clarification.

It's disgusting .........about 9% of the $1.9 trillion can be construed as true covid relief; the rest is a gift to poorly managed blue states and other left-wing causes.

In Alabama, we're as poorly managed as they come and we're arguably the most red state their is. Proportional to population and GDP, we're getting a huge gift.
What time was the insurrection in DC scheduled for today? Did I miss it?

Now, I'll be interested to see what this new AUMF is and the exact language. Still, a good first step.

Like the complaints from one party about passing an enormously wasteful and pork-filled "stimulus" package remarkably similar to one they passed?

I complained about both. Wasn’t the last one an actual budget though? Vs one touted as a Covid Recovery bill that has barely anything to do with Covid Recovery?
Edit to add, this is Trump’s fault for fucking up Georgia by being a dipshit.

That's partisan politics in a nutshell. If your side has control, you need to do everything you can to run through everything you want to run through regardless of minority party opposition. If the other side has control, they need to negotiate and compromise and cater to the feelz of the minority party.

Reminds me of your video of the "disinfectant cam" showering people. Instead of the pump bottle, it's Biden.
