President Biden: The NEW one and only politics thread

Great line here ...

House Democrats are laughing off Marjorie Taylor Greene's plan to force a vote ousting Mike Johnson.

"She is about to realize her inevitable irrelevance," one said.

Subtweeting murder wishes has been gross for a hot minute now.

Fatfuck's sudden embrace of the state's rights smorgasbord approach to abortion of course totally abandons the Shiite anti abortion wing among his own base, who want a life at conception SCOTUS ruling which will unconditionally outlaw abortion everywhere in the nation (and probably set up border and airport checkpoints to control and probably imprison Vagina-Americans attempting to flee to other nations for abortions)

And of course don't forget the incontestable certainty that Fatfuck himself has ordered hundreds of abortions of his own spawn (and grandspawn!!)

 

It'll drive you crazy.

 

This guy...this f*ckin' guy's gonna solve all your problems

 

Surprise: if you work for Fatfuck, you wind up getting fucked!!

Although the pregnancy drama stuff is hilarious on its own merits, I suspect the law firm severing its relationship with Fatfuck himself comes down to nothing more nor less than his widely publicized frequent failure to pay bills.

 

Has Jason started paying his child support yet?

 

Fun with politics. The Alabama lege is back to trying to pass a gambling bill, which involves a lottery, sports gambling, casino gambling, and electronic bingo (slots in sheep's clothing). Hilarity ensues. Click on Josh Moon's page and scan to get the full effect.

 

Fed holds interest rates at 23-year high, citing 'lack of further progress' on inflation

 

It's a bill that will make poor people poorer, of course. Not that people shouldn't have some freedom to make that choice.

 

Unfortunate but expected. And had been so telegraphed for weeks/months the market actually went up on the announcement.

Three interest rate cuts that were once seemingly a given seems highly unlikely. One, maybe two in the late summer/fall.

 

Sure it will. OTOH, the lottery stations on the state line of bordering states harvest millions of Alabama dollars every year. So do illegal sports books. It might as well be properly regulated and taxed.
