She moved to the most conservative part of the state she could find to try to pick a more favorable constituency, and it wasn’t enough.
He knows he’s going to be primaried from the left next time he runs for reelection. Best chances for him are to run as an incumbent independent or Republican.
I understand the pushback over a digital only release, but as a PC gamer, I’ve sold my soul to the Steam store long ago. My complaint is that Rockstar is not doing a concurrent PC release AGAIN.
The nice thing about a 56 member majority is you’re not held hostage by John Fetterman.
Now you play a pretty good straw cup, son, but let me tell you what, I bet these arches of gold against your soul because I think I’m better than you.
He’s trying to frame it as a national security asset because the courts tend to give the president more latitude in that area. I’m assuming the court will be smart enough to see through the sham.
“Listen. Strange writers lying in Hollywood distributing nanites is no basis for a system of government.”
“Fiddler in the Audience”
Good on the incumbent, Senator Cindy Hyde-Smith, for not dragging this out in court.
"While this is not the outcome we worked for or hoped for, I respect the decision of Mississippi voters. I want to congratulate Scott Colom and wish him well as he takes on the tremendous responsibility of representing our great state."
Normally, the election boards don’t need to dig into absentee or provisional ballots because the winner has built a large enough lead with the “normal” ballots that they’ve mathematically eliminated their opponent. (They’ll still count them eventually, but they aren’t the deciding votes.) The margins of this race were so thin (less than half a percent) that no one was ready to call it until every vote tallied.
I hate to engage in what-aboutisim, but what about the Benghazi investigations focusing on Secretary of State Hillary Clinton?
The best part about being one of his constituents is I never need to write him a letter urging him to vote the way I want him to, he just does it.
When 60 Minutes edited Kamala Harris’s interview to make her look good, Trump sued them for $16 million. I’m sure he’ll apply the same standard here.
Ohmergerd, it dah Berg!
I feel like Kirk near the beginning of Stark Trek VI:
[on whether to help the Klingons]
Kirk: They're animals.
Spock: Jim, there is an historic opportunity here.
Kirk: Don't believe them. Don't trust them.
Spock: They're dying.
Kirk: Let them die!
I probably should have Spock’s reaction to this, but we’re talking about a party, not people.
“Will have” being the important part. I wouldn’t put it past the GOP to try to seat as many judges as they can during the lame duck period, knowing it’s their last chance.
He’s remaining a Congressman, he’s just no longer looking to be in a leadership role within Congress. In parliamentary terms, he’s becoming a back bencher.
They’re not wrong. This has been the most so-nothing Congress I’ve seen in my lifetime. Whenever the House was faced with a tough vote, Johnson would put them on recess. Most of the problems we’re having are because Congress has just let the President do whatever he pleased.
He was only ahead by 43 votes three hours ago, so he’s starting to break away.
They brought the Gorn back in Strange New Worlds. They’re CGI horror movie monsters now, instead of a guy in a rubber suit fighting Kirk in broad daylight, which may or may not be your preference.
