He already promised this, then reversed it. In any case, they might not get a migrant hotel worker at their job, but they will just pick up that same worker somewhere else, so the effect will be almost the same.

Hexbear, is this true?

It is still kind of funny that Hillary Clinton had to be told that. Like I knew AQ is on their side, while "policy wonk" Secretary of fucking State Hillary Clinton had to be informed about it.

THIS JUST SHOWS THAT WE HAVE TO STRENGHTEN THE FILIBUSTER!

It would be cool if this was auto-sorted by new? Anyway;

Senate votes 53-47 to adopt “current policy baseline” to treat $3.8 trillion in Trump tax cut extensions as costing $0. Every Republican votes YES. This hasn’t been used before in filibuster-proof process to meet targets, and will change how future Senate majorities use it.

My understanding is that the budget passed through reconciliation CAN'T be filibustered as long as it is budget neutral. If parts of it aren't budget neutral, they can be filibustered. The GOP Senate voted to declare that the $3.8 trillion that isn't budget neutral actually is budget neutral. So instead of dealing with CBO scores and the Parliamentarian (and voting down their opinion pieces, something that the COULD do), they are just declaring that their bill meets the imaginary target and moving on. Like I always say, if you actually have 51 votes in the Senate, you can do anything you want.

Our technologies permit us to manipulate time and space. They leave distance annihilated, cause things to grow, and improve productivity.

There are posts? Maybe you aren't sorting by "new"

 

This is rarely mentioned. Because of its design, Starship can't just go to the Moon, it first requires orbital refueling (from other Starships). NASA estimates they would need at least 15, but that was before the Starship payload capacity was downgraded.

 

She wants to debase herself in order to embrace genocidal monsters and then get nothing in return anyway!

Maybe Harris is more than a president. Maybe she is an idea, a world-historical heroine, light itself.

Kamala is Athena. She did everything right in this campaign… She cannot be faulted, criticized, or analyzed for even one more second.

 

He is the Dem nominee running against Hawley. His profile says: "Marine vet, arms control negotiator, antitrust advocate, real populist".

"The work we (US) have done has resulted in Israeli actions that were very much prompted by and a result of US advocacy for what needs to happen in the region."

This is completely the opposite of what she is supposed to say, she is saying that Israel is not uncontrollable, but is following US orders.

 

TBH, that is just a mainstream centrist position now.
