Good.

This issue is the biggest example of Congressional inactivity from Republicans in the two years they had a majority to support the person occupying the executive branch that I can think of. There was no reason to even delegate authority to the DOJ, precedent on withholding federal funds for States in non-compliance with federal law (or attaching reasonable conditions on federal funding at the very least) was set thirty five years ago in South Dakota v. Dole.

Paul Ryan is the absolute worst, and I'm glad 2018 happened to clear out the riff raff. As a psychotic movie clown said; you get what you fuckin deserve.

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

A story in 2 parts:


https://twitter.com/ccadelago/status/1233555558524841984?s=21

https://twitter.com/ndrew_lawrence/status/1234630808394182656?s=21

He touched on it but some sexual misconduct allegations was probably a huge factor. That and he's a senile old freak who has no idea what he's saying most of the time. I can't believe people actually watched him. And I don't mean this because of his politics (ie someone like Keith Olbermann was at least funny and charismatic) but he's just absolutely freaking terrible

Except that wasn't actually the story.

I don’t know the story but that’s how a toxic berniebro portrayed it as such

Obviously there's no context. But I don't think that's a completely unreasonable question for a person with no medical background to ask his medical task force
