The law doesn’t treat them the same. One would provide unemployment benefits, the other wouldn’t.

House Democrats pleaded with Republicans on Thursday to hold an emergency hearing on the appointment of Matthew Whitaker to temporarily run the Justice Department

Considering it is the SENATE that confirms appointments, Mt Whitaker should Immediately empanel a Grand Jury to determine if this FELONY EXTORTION on behalf of the HOUSE Demonrats.

“Don’t any of these people read the Laws and Constitution?”

Nope. But they can say “constitutional crisis”.

Sure, but what's that got to do with the price of tea in China?

As if the Dems would do that for us (even if it mattered, which it doesn’t - the President, ANY President, can do whatever he damned well pleases in this regard).

F’em! They can have their meaningless, showboat hearing when flocks of flying pigs darken the noonday sky.

blue collar and lower management get fired or terminated. Executives get asked to resign and if they don’t they might get terminated.

The biggest reason for this is that executives have money for a good lawyer. Another reason is that they don’t want to kick them out of the executive arena, just want them to leave the particular company.

That's Yoona, from the Korean girl group SNSD (Girls Generation). Lovely lady.

I know. I have been informed of that by multiple freepers who seem to have a mad crush on her (and other Korean women). She became the Boo Hoo girl when I found the GIF and posted her everywhere on FR but she has taken on a life of her own here. ( A side-gig for her real life!)

Sessions was a political appt. The Pres has the Constitutional right to appt who he wants. I worked in state gov’t in AZ and our Gov can employ political appointees even at a state level.

Someone needs to remind Pelosi she will not be Speaker of the legislative chamber that approves presidential appointments.

"I know. I have been informed of that by multiple freepers who seem to have a mad crush on her (and other Korean women)."

I've been retired and living in Southeast Asia for a decade now and SNSD along with other Korean and Japanese groups are quite popular here.

Personally I find the clean cut, wholesome appearance sans tattoos, body piercings and extreme drug focused behavior with the foul language which is endemic to the American music scene, quite appealing. Of course feminists in the west dismiss them as being too submissive and not empowering to women as they "should be" in their minds. They are not foul-mouthed, drug addled, ball busting women: that's certainly part of what we like about them.

It’ll probably be just 51 or less. Montana went to Jon Tester, the incumbent Democrat. Arizona just switched, and the Democrat now leads that race. In Florida, the Democrat declared victory despite a negative margin, but his operatives continue to seek or manufacture the ballots if anyone dares to view them. In Mississippi, the Democrat won a legitimate slot in the runoff on 27 November, so we can presume that unless Republicans vote for their candidate, the Democrat will prevail.

If only one other Republican dies, resigns, or falls victim to a terrorist group, then we have only fifty.
