It's one thing when Democrats endorse the 14th Amendment as a solution to the debt ceiling crisis.

It's something else when a prominent Republican senator does the same thing.

Large numbers of people don't understand what a billionaire is.

If you, like most of us, ONLY make $1 million a year, it would take you 1,000 years to make $1 billion.

Or, if REALLY lie most of us, you make $50,000 a year, it would take you 20,000 years.

TWENTY THOUSAND YEARS!

If you tax someone who makes a billion a year at a 90% top rate, they would "only" take home $100 million a year.

When law enforcement was racially profiling Philando Castille or breaking down the door of Breonna Taylor's home, my Republican colleagues didn't bat an eye. But when the FBI investigates conservative white men, Republicans want to defund the police.

Plaskett: "But when the FBI investigates conservative Christian white men who are actually threatening violence, suddenly my Republican colleagues are rushing to defund the police."

#Syria President Bashar al-#Assad lands in #SaudiArabia for his first Arab League summit in over a decade: state television

https://breaking.iavian.net/article/336914

REPORTER: Today's hearing is about how the FBI is politicized, but do you think it's appropriate for some of these whistleblowers to be paid by one of Trump's former advisers?

JIM JORDAN: They got a family! How are they supposed to feed their family?

Your occasional reminder that the GOP's 'weaponization of gov' BS started with Trump claiming that Obama was spying on his campaign thru its microwaves.

It was a big joke on late-night TV. Folks like Lindsay Graham and Devin Nunes (!) scoffed at it.

Then, thru sheer repetition it became an actual fake scandal that's horrified millions of gullible wingnuts and resulted in these ludicrous hearings in the House.

(It's also some very obvious projection.)
