When is this stimulus package being passed? This was one of the major campaign promises was it not?
It is not paid for by cuts to medicaid that all comes from the weird paygo rules. But those also do huge cuts to farm aid and defense spending. This is the reason basically every time in the past that has come up they insert a single line in some bill to negate paygo from coming into effect. The dems playing hardball on this is fine as long as they are willing to push the messaging hard about why do the gop want to defund our military and farmers hard.

It’s sad that republicans are fighting over one time payments FOR MONTHS. shows you how much they don’t care

He is ignoring it, because the person he linked as his example of not being right wing, was pushing the idiotic ‘force the vote’. Which had potential of splitting the DNC vote for speaker, resulting in either a drawn out, repeated vote, or GOP minority leader winning. Their punishment for democrats not doing their will, is to primary every progressive in congress.
I guess Briana has to justify getting paid 30k per month...

I know this won't change any minds, but it may win a few hearts.
Biden plays Mario Kart, yo. Granted it looks to be the Switch version (I think? I only go as far as the N64 version) in an arcade cabinet, but that's probably cooler.
You may hate his policies, but his choice of game is just fine.

Words to live by.
It's even worse, because we're using your own words against you - you set the bar by having your dear leader compare himself to the past president. It's not our fault Trump came up short in almost every category, I guess that's why we voted him out of office. Biden is already light years ahead in COVID and actually helping Americans. Comparing Biden to Trump is like comparing Da Vinci to kindergarten finger painting.
But do let us know when Mexico cuts that check for the wall.

Never got around to this but it doesn't really look like he is ending support but instead just reframing it around defence in stead of offence which... could lead to exactly nothing changing as he said..
"We are ending all American support for offensive operations in the war on Yemen including relevant arm sales"
Which isn't to say we Arne't arming them... we aren't going to arm them with weapons relevant to offence, but what about defence? Those operations will continue as well as American support of those operations.
When you note that the pentagon already considers most of the action around Saudi Arabia and Yemen to be defensive what changes?
So the question then is what does Biden think of it and how does Biden view it? If the pentagon views it as defensive and ergo arm Saudis... is that going to happen or will Biden deem it offensive and stop it?But Biden and other administration officials also stressed the United States would continue defending the Saudis from attacks, as well as continue counterterrorism operations inside Yemen against al Qaeda and ISIS
Jake Sullivan also confirmed this will not stop Americans bombing Yemen war on terror and all that.

I like how all the right wingers are bitching that he is playing Mario Cart, with his first days off since taking the presidency, and didn't say a fucking word when Trump literally took the first weekend off after his inauguration, to go spend millions of dollars at his own fucking golf course, that went directly to him from tax payers.
Since we can't call out Trolls and Bad Faith posters and the Ignore function doesn't actually ignore it. Add
"mmo-champion.com##li.postbitignored"
to your ublock or adblock filter to actually ignore ignored posters. Now just need a way to ignore responses to them as well.
