Trump: The other white meat

December 28, 2020

Avoiding giving more money to citizens in need.

THAT'S the hill most Republican's are ready and eager to die on to a degree that you'd think the money was coming out of their own pockets.

Why is McConnell so dead set against payments to help state and local governments?

It really a hill he is determined to die on and was apparently willing to trade direct payments to citizen (albeit reduced from the previous ones) to keep off the so called compromise. What's up with Turtleman?

Hey, I thought

it was the radical, crazed and violent out of control Left that would bring rule by mob.

Vaccine skeptic testifies before Senate

Did this go as 'well' as might be expected?

December 8, 2020

Dr. Fauci just mentioned that a friend of his was being awarded:

A Nobel prize for his work. So how much of a chance that Trump remarks, tweets, etc about how he deserves one for the vaccine Or given how high on his supply he seems to be ATM, even claims to have won one or to have been 'robbed' of it by Fauci's friend (and a whole slew of phantom enemies)?

IIRC, its not like he hasn't claimed similar things before.

What is the statute of Limitations length for Interfering with an election?

Since Trump has been committing it fairly openly but, of course logically a sitting president can't be indicted , it will have to wait, 44(?) days or someone has some pardoning to do?

Stimulus checks for the general public.

I've become fairly sure those will not be repeated even if the democratic party gains the small Senate majority that is tentatively in reach as it really seems to be a hill Republican want to die on.

Hell, IIRC, there were a good number of GOPers that were against the original Stimulus arguing either that was too expensive and/or that it would disincentivize Poors from the working on any pitiful job they could get out of sheer desperation (same for boosted unemployment!) and thus breed laziness among the serfs

'Dead Man Walking' nun says Trump administration trying to rush through executions in 'shameful kill

‘Dead Man Walking’ nun says Trump administration trying to rush through executions in ‘shameful killing spree’

Criminal justice advocates argue the Trump administration is trying to “rush through” as many federal executions as possible before Joe Biden, who opposes capital punishment, takes office.

Sister Helen Prejean, a long-time death penalty abolition advocate whose story is the basis for the film Dead Man Walking, said on Monday the Department of Justice is planning new executions for federal inmates soon and called it a “shameful killing spree.”

The DOJ did not immediately respond to a request for comment.

So DeJoy cannot be removed by Biden?

Is that for real? How many other stink bombs has the dark times of Mad Prince Mango left hidden in the future administration's path?
