And the polls  reflect that right?

I thought you guys didn't believe in polls?  Anyhow, W's approval rating peaked at 92% after 9/11. So, take that, for what it's worth.

no.....he is doing the right thing by not sounding like a doom merchant...ie. you.

The absolutey worst thing that could happen to Trump is that 200 million people so engaged in eeking out a living, who had no time previously  to witness this shambolic presidency, are now tuning in.

I think the strongest is "It's alright ma.." but i fully agree with the rest of your post.

I think the message of "stay observant"  ties into the song very well. Beware the agents and the superhuman crew.

The problem is lack of  flights to take the mail.

 

Read somewhere that DHL still works as they have their own planes but many other couriers might not

 

I may go into withdrawal for lack of my New Yorker magazines!!!

Thanks Sheryl. I would send it by DHL but the USPS has it now. I guess Ill pull out my tracker receipt and see what's going on.

So apparently air mail service between the USA and Thailand has been stopped. Three months by ship? So what's the expiration date on the checks?

When did this happen? Have you got a link confirming details?  I sent a letter air mail to Thailand from US on Wednesday and no one informed me of this and they certainly didn't charge me the surface rate. Thanks.

I'm counting on one of his more racist sycophants taking him out because they're worried he isn't destroying the democracy fast enough.

kudos to zimmerman

Bobby dropped his first song in 8 years today. Yeah, the voice is shot, but who cares? It's a jewel.

It's just one factory. They either have been making them or something similar in the plant. Clean jobs for 1000. Should have never bailed them out. Make horrible cars and mediocre trucks.

GM sold that plant last year.

In his mindset, they're Communists. I mean, to him, Bernie Sanders is a Communist.

I'd love to give him a pop quiz on that.

Senate vote was unanimous so no roll call was necessary.

In the House a quorum of 216 congressmen blocked the rule change for a roll call and passed the bill by voice vote. Perfectly normal legislative procedures. Good on both Republican and Democrat congressional leadership in the House to bypass Massie's rogue behavior in a bipartisan manner!

Trump even tweeted of Massie's "third rate grandstanding": "He just wants the publicity. He can'stop it, only delay it, which is both dangerous & costly."

It is not good. MANY members of the House from both parties had problems with this package because of it's weighting that overwhelmingly favored large corporations and underweighting the needs of the people and small businesses. Pelosi pushed for a voice vote in the House so no Congress member's vote would be recorded.

gm had already announced they were planning to make ventilators with one of their suppliers.  it would be at one of ventec's component manufacturing plants.

 

trump however wants to git 'er done at the stupidly closed lordstown cruze assembly line.

 

Yeah, that is going to be a tough one, as GM sold their Lordstown plant last year.

Quick, let’s Fund the Kennedy Center for the Arts and give Congress a 25% Raise in Pay.

That gig as a Buddhist monk didn't really take, huh?

Forgive me for not providing a fully itemized list.

 

 

I don't need a list. I know what's on it. $500 Billion amounts to less than 1/8 of the corporate bailout, not the line items.

Pelosi did s great job here.

 

Fought off the attempt by the executive to award itself a $500,000,000,000 secret slush fund, ensured frontline medical services would get the cash they need, batted off an attempt to strip

funding from women’s health and stopped any of this money going to businesses owned by Trump or his family.

 

As for Trump excluding Democrats from the signing of this bipartisan bill, I’m quite certain they are very pleased not to be in a room with him right now.

That's not even a 1/8th of what the Democrat and Republican leadership forced through without consulting Congress and allowing a roll call vote. The headlines are extremely misleading. Several segments here will explain it.
