She reminds me of "That Girl" starring Marlo Thomas but I believe Marlo had more sense. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=zv1lnOry4XY

She forgot to mention the Chamber of Commerce.

“The good thing is, she never shuts the h*ll up, and her breath-taking stupidity is constantly on display.”

Yep. She make Creepy Uncle Joe Biden sound as intelligent as Einstein and as eloquent as Shakespeare.
It takes turbocharged industrial grade stupid to do that.

And those Marty Feldman eyes are a dead giveaway as to her low IQ.
(Apologies to Marty Feldman who was actually quite intelligent and talented)

Like I say, you should see the complete and utter MORONS cheering for her at Yahoo. I wouldn’t trust these people to open a jar of peanut butter.

She was an unemployed bartender when she ran for Congress. Suspect mixing drinks was too complicated as well.

If you include the deep state she was correct.

Remember as well...she attended college and has a degree. I doubt if she took more than one or two classes in government. But this is what we are producing now at the college level....incompetent people with a piece of paper to recognize their incompetence.

Yup. I’ve been right all along. This thing needs to be their Speaker of the House.

>> We could use a third one though. One that only decent AMERICANS who aren’t on welfare get to vote for. Call it the House of CITIZENS or something. <<

As much as I love my own concept of the world's first tricamerial legislature (at least at the national level), I'd say the odds of it happening are even less than the anti-17th amendment loons getting their wish to repeal the 17th. That is, it ain't happening.

Putting term limits on the tenure of federal judges is more feasible and desirable, if only we had the will power to do it.

One really off-the-wall idea that IS theoretically possible is getting the new Congress to elect Osacio-Cortez as the first freshman Congressman Speaker in history. Pretty much all you'd have to do is convince the entire GOP caucus to NOT put up Kevin McCarthy as Speaker (since they don't have the votes and they'd lose anyway so it would be a merely "symbolic" gesture to nominate him for Speaker) and instead vote with about two dozen or so rogue moonbat RATs (I'd be lobbying every member of the Democratic Socialists of America) in supporting Osacio-Cortez over Pelosi as Speaker because the latter is "not progressive enough".

On paper, that's pretty easy to do. But convincing Congressmen to actually do it is something else.

Her head “chambers” are vacuous to say the least. She’s going to be the Hillary Clinton of the new congress.

Time for “Popcorn and Circuses”.

South Afrika was tricameral towards the end, mon. One chamber each for Whites, Coloreds (mixed race), and Indians (tons immigrated there, Gandi lived there for a while, that’s where he learned how to be a rabble rousing pseudo-marxist). The plan for Blacks was self-governing Bantustans.

As for judicial terms limits, I used to think that was a great idea but I don’t know, depends how long we control the White House/Senate. I bet a lot of rats would get behind the idea right now. If we get a couple more 45-55 year old conservatives on the Supreme it wouldn’t make a ton of sense for us in the medium term.

She graduated from Boston univ
Her degree was in economics and international bus
Not like she majored in womens studies. Her dad was an architect. She may be book smart but dumb mouth so sure of herself. She just might implode.

If they created some type of "maximum of 25 years on the federal bench or whenever you reach the age of 75, whichever comes first" rule, and applied it RETROACTIVELY to ALL the sitting federal judges, it would force scores of Clinton & Obama appointees (a combined 16 years of leftist judge appointments currently in office) into early retirement, and be a boon for all our side. We could then fill all those vacancies while the GOP controls the Senate.

Of course, making it retroactive would also likely result in the law being blocked. I don't think they got term limits for Presidents until making the law explicitly say it didn't apply to the CURRENT President, thus getting the Truman administration to endorse the idea.

Still, I'd try for a retroactive "25 years on the bench/maximum age of 75" law first. Can't hurt to try.

This nutroot is GIFT I'm telling you. An avatar of everything that is wrong with Progressives.

You take the Progressive "Let Me Top That" mentality which she has in spades + absolute blissful ignorance = GOP GIFT.

If I'm Hannity I invite her on NIGHTLY, and the only caveat is that she has to say "I'm a DEMOCRAT" 3 times during every interview.
