    Nevertheless - the Republicans should simply cease pretending to have any function and not show up if this bill is present, or after it passes.
    And the states can simply refuse to be bound by an rulings of a tainted Supreme Court.

    Maybe the price of lumber is so high because the gvt is buying it all up to make new internment camps for the far right extremists...

    This is just pandering to the rabid base, and also (I suspect) a veiled threat to SCOTUS in regard to potential cases they may choose to take up - or not - over the next 2-4 years. This goes nowhere in the Senate, although it might get dicey if they try to ditch the filibuster too. At the moment, however, the filibuster *seems* marginally safe.

    Kind of like the 'reparations' bill they're planning to bring in the House. Not going anywhere.

    The House has become the ridiculous side of Congress.

    Eventually it WILL go through at some point. That's the way they work---maybe it doesn't now but it will with these radicals. Their masks are completely off and they don't give a crap----they will eventually push this through and more. It will happen---when? That I don't know

    Point in RED---"The U.S. House Judiciary Committee approved a bill Wednesday that would create a commission to study reparations for black Americans for slavery. The vote was along party lines, 25 Democrats voting yes and 17 Republicans voting against".
    This too will pass....

    To be fair, the House was designed as the ridiculous side of Congress. Elected by the idiot people, on 2 year terms. The Senate was intended to be the serious side, appointed by the elites, with six year terms. But they fucked all that up with the 17th Amendment.

    Read a piece today that even Justice Stephen Breyer, who is a liberal, stated that packing the SCOTUS is not a good idea and could backfire on those who want it rather easily.
