Aren’t they going to try to vote on this Friday? Maybe I didn’t hear it correct.

"InfoWars founder and notorious conspiracy theorist Alex Jones showed a phone in his hands while on camera which appeared to have open a web browser window displaying transgender pornography.
It happened during Jones’s promotion of a range of health and wellness products. The window in question contained a web page titled: “Naughty tbabe Marissa Mi…” Marissa Minx is an Australian transgender adult film actress and “tbabe” is a term for transgender porn stars.
Jones did not immediately respond to a request for comment."
This isn't news, but it is funny.

"NPR reached out to the 200+ schools that reportedly had school shootings in 2015 and found that more than two-thirds of these government-reported incidents never happened."
Lol...

I have no idea what this comment is in reference to. Did their rating increase or drop? The article is about NAFTA.
I also have no clue what you think my opinion is on congress or their polling. But thanks for thinking about me, I guess.

I saw that earlier. It’s the same nonsense that leads people to think a 3d printed gun is realistic, let alone useable. Ignorance is bliss and outrage is in.

No, they have to announce their intent to propose the deal 90 days out from a vote. I think it’s DOA because unless I’m mistaken, you need 2/3 of the senate to ratify it. No way you get 14 Democrats to put the country ahead of partisanship.
The bill could literally raise the minimum wage to $15 an hour and Warren or Harris would state they’re voting “no” because it doesn’t do anything to assist transgender people or some other inane policy position the country loathes but resonates with the far left wackos (see abolish ICE).

I know, Mitch. I’m a Carlson parrot. You can quit reading here.
Carlson had a great segment last night on the fake outrage from the left on McCain and Trump.
I personally wrote Trump off after he attacked McCain on the campaign trail. But the left and the same politicians and pundits who are attacking Trump for not showering Mccain with respect are the same people who called McCain a racist and warmonger for 20 years. John (I got my skull cracked 50 years ago, so keep me in Congress till I die despite lacking a single legislative accomplishment) Lewis as recent as several months ago said horrible things about McCain, comparing him to George Wallace when he ran against Obama. Yet they get to pretend they’re outraged that Trump didn’t keep the flag at half mast? GTFO

I think there's def enough votes, there are too many dems in places where this is immensely popular. If Canada signs on I think it's a slam dunk.
