I wish we were more outspoken like the British Parliament, that would have been much more fun. I think more would want to watch the process too. lol

Most famously, in 1856, Representative Preston Brooks of South Carolina caned Senator Charles Sumner of Massachusetts on the Senate floor so brutally that Sumner had to be virtually carried from the chamber — and did not retake his seat for three years. Clearly, wielded with brute force, a cane could be a potent weapon.

Trump has gotten inside their decision making process.
Each step is just that much behind the curve.
Honestly, it was a win-win situation for the president
in any event. What the heck was Nanzi thinking to go
on a junket with the government shut down???
Frankly, he should have let her go and then shut it down
leaving her in Kabul.

I think they knew the Republicans had them when one Republican Congressman asked them to have the stenographer read back what she had transcribed.

When is the voter fraud that occurred during the midterms going to be exposed. I, for one, don’t believe the RATs took the House!!

"Hoyer denied that “games were played,” saying the request was simply not heard."

How the hell would Hoyer know what was going on? Yesterday he spoke out of turn by assuming what was in Pelosi's letter to President Trump. The guy is a clueless moron.

You can trust Chad more than most, but I’m not claiming he’s ALWAYS right...

“Dems are growing desperate to change the narrative that they are not doing anything to end the shutdown.”

They might be desperate, but they’re not VERY desperate. Vacationing in Hawaii, boogieing on the beach in Puerto Rico, and this upcoming overseas “excursion”, while secretaries, janitors, and other little people aren’t getting paid. Talk about tone deaf.

Why not? Bush would've let her go. Clinton and Obama definitely. These folks think it's still the same ol', same ol'.

He also came in saying, “I don’t know what is going on. But I object.”

If he was off doing something else and did not know what is going on, how could he then claim say he didn’t hear the request?

Ask your friend, if Pelosi had cancelled the trip two days ago, why were Schiff and the rest of the Democrats riding around the Capitol Building in circles today on an Air Force bus? Were they going to a pajama party at Nancy’s house?

Yep. Tip them off, like that Oakland Mayor tipped off the illegals.
