He probably just took one of Trump's diapers


Well, the majority of welfare recipients are die-hard MAGA cultists like yourself who blame all of their problems on brown people instead of the billionaires robbing them blind, so yeah, it's pretty likely
Cute, so you're an addict that will fight to the death to keep his slaves just like a heroin addict for his smack and just for the record I earn more than you in a LCOL, even counting for W-2 vs capital gains taxes.
 
A clean budget bill will literally never pass. Ever. It violates the way Congress works. Being obstinate about it when this bill is the best chance to actually get illegal immigration not just under control, but reversed, is cutting off your nose to spite your face. Balancing the budget is a meme, and Trump's tariffs are still doing more than enough to offset the spending increase.
Not to mention that Massie himself ended up voting Yes (at least during the most recent round of voting).
He apparently switched it back to a Nay.

And what does he have to lose? Trump is already trying to primary him. Gee, maybe Trump should have primaries some neocon scumbags instead?
 
The Supreme Court just announced that they will hear two cases next session challenging two state's bans on troons in female sports. Keep an eye on that 41% number next summer!
get me a job as a supreme court justice asap, I mean for petes sake we are in arguable one of the most consequential times in our nations history not just in general but certainly in relation to the nations judiciary and what does the most powerful court in the land deign to weight in on in the midst of unprecedented wealth inequality, poor health, lack of basic freedoms and rights as outlined in the constitution? A question that the ape creatures of the Indus Valley could answer and they arent planning to be to hasty with it neither im sure.

marbury v madison was a mistake and I want trump to pass an EO that says the supreme court needs to have atleast 12 decisions a year until the federal debt is gone or all sitting judges are immediately fired and disbarred in all 50 tstaes
 
Ahh yes here it is, the unwritten document that can be changed at will. What an enlightened and democratic nation you are
I pointed out the problem with our system - supremacy of the legislature - in the paragraph below which enables that functionality. I'm not trying to be hostile towards you, calm down.

The documents that make up the nebulous constitution of the United Kingdom require strict adhering to but they're unfortunately susceptible to loopholes and amendment by parliament. It's like how guns aren't "technically" infringed on in the USA, even though even if they get priced out of viability via import taxes, see restricted importation due to sanctions on foreign states, or have proprietary additions illegalised or signalled out like short-barrelled shotguns, suppressors, extended magazines or bump stocks.

England had a civil war in the mid 1600s over the king violating the constitutional rights of parliament at the time, which offered protections for members of parliament from arrest, even if said crime was proven to have occurred (treason). Without guarantees of certain rights and privileges you'd have anarchy. Most states have constitutions and afforded rights, most of them are just shit, and most of them only became shit rather recently too. Most of the "hate speech" laws that justify the obscene arrests nowadays are a product of the 1980s.
 
Despite LARPing as budget warriors neocons lavish hundreds of millions of dollars worth of pork on the districts they represent which is why they keep getting reelected Despite a 3% approval rating.

Lindsay Graham is notorious for this sort of thing.

American have tendencies to vote down party line when they receive a ballot. So it’s less about what he does and more that his constituents are as retarded as the rest of the country. Will not change until he is seriously primaried

You guys see that funny little red number all the way on the right? That scary guy is kinda new, atleast at this size. Defense has always been number 3 expenditure after healthcare and social security but now EVERY YEAR we pay more money, over a trillion dollars, on just the fucking interest to our debt
Surely you must be wrong!

I have been assured by the most trust-and Chad-worthy of KFers that government debt doesn’t matter and that America can just print more money anytime, without any ill effects whatsoever.

No, Fitzpatrick was the only R nay on H. Res. 566.
Ah, good!

Oh, neat. Bryan Kohberger pled guilty to those Idaho murders. Turns out, when the police arrested him, he had the ID of one of the victims on him. Or something like that.

:story:

I remember /pol/ incels raging to defend the guy for weeks.
What's the story with this guy and the Idaho killings? never heard of it until the news he plead guilty.

A big issue I see is that alternatives are rarely offered. Like, you're a Republican, a Conservative, so you don't want to put a Dem in power because that gives the Dems as a whole more power over the country and you don't like what they're selling. However your only option for a Republican candidate is a Neocon Shithawk RINO whose only real purpose is to vote along party lines on occasion but otherwise offers zero value. You could wait for the coveted "Primary Challenge" for a chance to get in someone better, but it's risky, since the politician getting elected for your area might be the whole reason your area hasn't flipped Dem. Also unless you have overwhelming support too from higher up in the party, primarying someone might be viewed as a sort of betrayal or act of selfishness, so prompting one without consent from above might earn you the cold shoulder and see you forced to campaign on a couple dimes and some lint during the next major election, which we have seen the Republicans do out of sheer spite before.

Psycho Jew tried to be a sick nasty murderer, got caught red-handed immediately, and tried to muster a defense claiming it was actually three other people before the state told him he'd get the death penalty if it went to trial. So he plead guilty. Kohberger caught the attention of true crime hoes who thought he was sexy and also of incels who were happy that young, cute college chicks got murdered.

There were some discrepancies in the police investigation in the beginning that fueled the idea that the guy was innocent, but we're now finding out that the police have the dude dead to rights: tons of his DNA at the scene of the crime and also an ID card belonging to one of the victims that he kept as a keepsake.

its alright tommy im just yanking yer chain. I think your misinterpreting what im trying to say, its widely acknowledged as a point of trivia and fact that the UK FAMOUSLY dosent have a constitution. That sentence is true but that dosent mean you dont have constitutional law, its kind of a weird difference but it does matter. I encourage you to read more about it because I had to do a paper on it back in the day for a polysci class, the quick and dirty verison is that your nation is so fuck off old with so many traditions that it was and is just engrained in you all to adhere to certian parts of that tradition unflichingly.

Take for example your prime minister, this is no law or anything that says that it HAS to be the leader of the party who wins the elections, by law its whomever the sovereign selects but because of tradition that has simply never taken place and even beyond that they have the power "constitutionally" to appoint ANYONE to the position regardless of election results as its HIS majesty's government
