They got the votes finally — 219 to 213. Moving right along. They just now started the one damn hour of debate on the BBB as amended by the Senate. It’s 3:30 AM in the Capitol, wheeeee.

ETA: Johnson sitting in the front row like the bride’s dad holding the shotgun at a shotgun wedding, making sure the Rs follow through.

Full floor vote is happening soon.

When the BBB inevitably doesn't pass, you all owe me an apology.
 
You're stupid if you honestly believe Americans aren't already doing those jobs. When the chicken plants near me lost over half of their work force thanks to ICE there was a line of whites, Blacks, and Vietnamese ready to take their place two days later. Hell one of my sisters even got a job there.
If you oppose the importation of replacement shitskins you’ll avoid Chobani products, with roughly 30% of their employees being ‘refugees’ and the Turk that owns it agitating for more to be let in.
 
If that actually happens, I'll get in the burger suit.
Happily.
I'm tired of being black pilled bros, I really am.
Well, first it would have to make it to SCotUS, and then they'd probably say, "It's clearly a tax measure. The Senate should have overruled that cooze." Besides the NFA fails much harder on the common use standard.
 
Which one would you rather have in a self defense situation, Mr. Redditor?

Why do i say guns are funkopops for conservatives? Because they are an excuse for conservatives to do nothing.

"Organising is for faggots and communists. I have a gun, therefore I wont do anything because my guns will make me free"

Meanwhile the faggots and communists keep winning w/o firing a shot, because they organise to win while you are polishing your AR-15 and thinking you are free.

Did gun stop the trannies? No
Did guns stop the Mexivasion? No
Did guns stop big tech from turning you devices into intel gathering devices? No
Did guns stop the niggers from driving you out of your cities? No

Your guns are just a collectible. Something to shine and polish and brag about online. An excuse to do nothing in the belief that as a last resort you can use them to overthrow the government. But that never happens. That wont happen. And every year they find more ways to make using and owning a gun harder.
 
I think the ACA took a year and a half to pass, and that was with dem supermajorities.
It went through a major overhaul, too. The first version of it was a nightmare and rightfully scared the hell out of boomers who relied on or planned to rely on Medicare as they were promised.

They turned that fear into action with the Tea Party, which died a quiet, undignified death at the hands of Lois Lerner later on by unfairly taxing them to death.

That was most of Obama’s 1st term, he blew through so much political capital just to pass a castrated version of a bill he wanted. Then he just sat on his ass for 6 years after as a lame duck. Very weird decision on his part
 
I m gonna disagree. See there are countries the boarder Ukraine, Russia's willingness to cross an agreed upon boarder (for whatever reason) broke norms established since the end of the 2nd world war. Ukraine and russia dont exist in a vacuum,

Ukraine shares its boarder with seven other countries

  • Russia
  • Belarus
  • Poland
  • Slovakia
  • Hungary
  • Romania
  • Moldova

Those other countries would then have russia on their boarder, yes yes russia would never invade any of those countries as long as they are good little vassals and opose the corruption of the west and NATO.

Sigh my personal thoughts are if russia was truly strong they wouldve won years ago.
No fucking Ukraine sperging.
 
Losing 2020- and January 6th- was the best thing that ever happened to Trump and his movement. Massive loyalty test, four years to regroup, Israel chimping out under Biden and not Trump, post-covid economic woes under Biden and not Trump, etc.

Regardless of what happens in the future, if you were trvsting the plan and refilling yuor popcvrn in mid 2021 you were a better political analyst than people with six figure degrees.
On the other hand they almost won for good with 2020 and have seriously damaged the US, and could have destroyed for good it if not for their own stupidity- there are still 10 million ‘protected’ illegals from that term alone to deal with FYI, let alone the innumerable uncounted illegals that have streamed across the border.

If you oppose the importation of replacement shitskins you’ll avoid Chobani products, with roughly 30% of their employees being ‘refugees’ and the Turk that owns it agitating for more to be let in.
Kurds, the owner is a Turkish-born Kurd.

The problem with American healthcare is that it’s the worst of both worlds. Private corps turning profits AND a massive government bureaucracy that tells them exactly what they can and can’t do.

Every nation that has some kind of public insurance started it in the 1950ies at the latest. That was the time to do something like Medicare for all.

Basically America constructed a giant, expensive eyesore of a public/private skyscraper, and the change that people are pushing for is the equivalent of going: “You know, maybe we can make it art deco and out of granite instead?”

(Not saying that a public option is totally impossible in America, but not an America that also spends a trillion dollar on defense. Math ain’t mathin.)


@Hollywood Hulk Hogan get the fuck in here, someone far less amusing is stealing your schtick.

Shit, I laughed at @Fatpacks too back during the election when he was gloriously wrong but… The guy has a point.

The BBB that’s actually passing is like 10% of what was promised. And instead of going “OHMAHGAWD!!! TRUMP MANAGED TO GET 10%!!!” Maybe more of y’all should be pissed at how neutered it was.

Shit, Trump has no problems threatening Massie with a primary, when all the guy wants is a SANE budget. But he lets the Senate piss all over him and takes it with a smile?!
