I imagine they want to add some measures to the bill that allows them to frame it that the democrats are choosing immigrants over first responders.Re 9/11 bill
A spokesman for Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell didn’t respond to a request for comment on whether McConnell would support the bill coming to the floor.
The White House also didn’t respond to comment when asked if President Trump would sign it.

Forget reconciliation, they'll just kill the filibuster completely...It's more than tenuous, I don't think the existing proposed bills can be passed through reconciliation.Yeah, I mean, the retort from the left is, just get to 50 in the senate, and ram M4A through reconciliation. Which would obviously be quite tenuous.

One of the members of the committee did comment afterwards why there was such a small number of members there. The chamber was set up for the full committee (41 people), but this hearing was just for the sub committee: 14 people. Of those 14 people, 6 were missing. 3 democrats and 4 republicans.There could well be legitimate reasons why half that committee was absent for that hearing.I'm a big fan of piece of **** politicians being held to task.

Not sure what's significant about June 12th in the Apollo program, and why this one aviation social media channel I follow posted this today. But it gave me a lol

I find conspiracy theories interesting on so many levels, but more on the human side of the believers.
My wife has gotten into reiki recently and befriended the coach she was having sessions with. One time after hanging out with this woman, my wife came home and asked me what "Q" is, obviously this reiki person believes all this stuff. Explaining the Q theory to your politically disengaged wife is a blast.

I know a woman who is a highly educated professional, and her son has numerous degrees in chemistry, and both believe 100% that Flight 93 was trying to take out some building in Johnstown, PA where DEA info was housed. And I'm talking, they believe it like they believe water is wet.I find conspiracy theories interesting on so many levels, but more on the human side of the believers.

If people are actually offended or concerned about this, I don't want to live in this country any more.The Boston Globe reported that Biden met the voter at a coffee shop before the event. When Biden met the voter's granddaughter, he asked her age. After she replied that she was 13 years old, Biden turned to her brothers and said, "You've got one job here, keep the guys away from your sister."
The interaction adds to a growing list of encounters Biden has had with women and girls on the campaign trail

The general public has allowed it to go this far already. They've controlled the narrative this entire time with ease pretty much.I would hope this "wouldn't fly" with the majority of the public but we'll see.
What boggles my mind is that there are people who can't believe he won't cry foul and try and stay if he loses. He's pretty much been allowed to escalate this.

If he loses I think he'll go but he'll make a huge stink on the way out.

Trump base: makes no differenceI would hope this "wouldn't fly" with the majority of the public but we'll see.
Anti-Trumpers: dig in more, which in turn provides more resolve for his base
Libertarians: he’s no worse than anyone else, he’s just open about it
Net result: no change
