With the DoD, FDA, & DoJ employees all threatening to quit b/c of the Hegseth, Kennedy & Gaetz appointments, and the impending shutdown of the DoEd.  The DOGE’s job got a lot easier.  Change is needed and change is coming.  The people voted for this.

Dept of Ed won’t get eliminated because it’ll require 60 votes in the Senate. Maybe they’ll be some budget cuts so some kids with disabilities lose services and low income students get less Pell Grant money. So…yay? 

It’s in Project 2025 so it has to happen right?

Trolling doesn’t really work with me. I replied to a comment about dismantling the Dept of Ed, which republicans have been talking about doing two years after it was put in place. Trump wanted that the first go around. That won’t happen, but with all the excitement about budget cuts, I’m sure republicans will try that route for some fodder for the base and so they can act like they’re doing something that they think is helpful. 

unless thune kills the filibuster

Thune is a rino, which means he is beholden to the DC establishment and uniparty.  So don’t worry, he want erase the filibuster.  Trump can still radically change the dept though and essentially neuter it and give back control to the individual States, and I’m good with that outcome as well.  

Only the protectors of Democracy would kill the filibuster and pack the Supreme Court. Fortunately they can’t for at least 4 more years. Hopefully longer.

which suggests the gop are the detroyers of democracy and the party that actually did pack the court. on to phase 2 I guess.

Tesk was being sarcastic 😂 b/c the DEMOCRATS under Harry Reid already did away with the filibuster way back in 2013 for judicial and executive nominees.  You can thank DEMOCRATS for the Gorsuch, Kavanaugh and Barrett confirmations, b/c these confirmations would have failed otherwise.  😂😂😂

mcconnel killed it for scotus. reid dor liwer court appointments. 

facts matter

You are correct sir, but regardless Harry Reid opened Pandora’s Box and that was my point.

for a rule that was weaponized by mcconnell. reids failure was not forcing the speaking filibuster and simply accepting the threat...

Trump’s campaign pledges was to eliminate the Department of Education.

trump and his idiot brigade came out at the beginning of the PPV portion of UFC 309. First the music being played was of course Kid Rock, but then it switched to BTO's Takin' Care of Business. I have a hard time believing my fellow Pegger Randy Bachman signed off on that.

Agreed, highly unlikely Bachman was OK with this.  It's not the first time the Felon has tried to rip off someones music.  I can picture Randy calling up us old buddy and band mate Neil, saying, "WTF, man?  Got a lawyer up here I can call?"  I hope he gets it straightened out.

Meanwhile, I'm just finishing up a good tale here, a fine antidote to despair that reminds me that sooner or later, good news comes around again.

Some great sites at UFC 309.  Jon Jones gave Trump his heavyweight championship belt. There are some other great pics of the Trump team on Trump's plan. Hope they can keep it together.

California is still counting ballots. PA is still counting ballots and are counting illegal ballots. Nothing to see here. Nevada may still be counting ballots, too.

I know. He’s the last person I thought would eat that garbage. I also don’t understand Trumps obsession with publicizing McDonald’s so often. What is the point of that photo?

 Also Mike Johnson appears to be sitting at the kids table.

Honest thought, maybe he’s being paid by McDonald’s somehow? Every one of his actions seems to be about self-aggrandizing or self-enrichment.

Yup it’s gonna be tricky when they say to eat better and then they will be eating McDonalds 3 meals a day for 4 years. Do as I say, not as I do. Musk said “difficult times ahead” just not for anyone in Trumps inner circle. Too bad for the Magats that think they are in his inner circle and believe he’s their best interest when making decisions.

Bill Maher had a doctor on this week explaining that US doctors dont understand heath,  that true health can only be obtained thru proper metabolics, primarily thru proper diet and exercise. Their point was RFK wasn't so terrible. She went on to say all her years of college, med school and residency, she was never taught how to be healthy.

If they believe as we age we can avoid all the thousands of horrible diseases thru metabolics, there's a bridge in Brooklyn I can sell them. 

Go McDonald's!

HughFreakingDillon

there is something to be said about treating the root cause, not just the symptoms, the latter being a cornerstone of western medicine for ages. the quick fixes like ozempic for weight loss. how about we throw money at basic food prep education in school? bring back mandatory phys ed class. stricter food quality standards so places like mcdonald's can't sell the garbage they sell. 

josevolution

Go ahead eat your way to coronary death! Let the MAGA just eat all that junk food they are what they eat total garbage!
