WASHINGTON Senate Republicans blocked a Democratic bill that would both fund the government and raise the US  borrowing limit, escalating a political showdown over  government finances just days before it runs out of money.

From the ABC piece

Wolf responded last September during a speech that any effort to paint recent DHS actions as examples of mission drift or politicization could not be more wrong.  James Wareham, Nielsens attorney, told ABC News at the time that Murphys allegations would be laughable if they were not so defamatory.



And like I said - I have zero problem with members of the party doing things to ge re-elected.  Politics can get dirty.

Gary had better knees than me

But I was much much faster and certainly more versatile.

Politics does not belong in the agencies tasked with national security.

You do not cheat to get elected.

I once saw Carter standing on the trainers table with a couple tiles of the drop ceiling removed to make room for his head.

They were wrapping his legs from ankle to hip and I most remember his legs were purple, red and black because there were so many bruises. They wrapped his knees so tight I wondered how could he crouch?

He was holding a small press conference before the game because he was the guy who always said, OK you can ask questions while I get ready to push my body way beyond its limit... again.

You sully his memory and you have no knowledge of political history except for what was created by Aaron Sorkin.

On that topic, you know Jed Bartlett would despise you.

He was known to have a big head.

Carter was as fake as Steve Garvey and Tommy Lasordid.

And now for something completely different...

The two sites, one in Kentucky and one in Tennessee, will employ a total of a total of about 11,000 people, and between them, the sites will include three electric vehicle battery manufacturing plants and a factory to build electric pickup trucks.
The Tennessee site, to be called Blue Oval City -- a reference to Ford's logo -- will cover 3,600 acres, three times the size of Ford's famous River Rouge Complex in Dearborn, Michigan. It will employ 5,800 people and will include a battery manufacturing plant, battery materials recycling facilities, areas for various parts suppliers and an assembly plant for building electric F-series trucks.

Thought there was some hope of Missouri's becoming civilised and washing away the *bloodstains* of human beings deliberately killed in its death chambers.
But no, they'll now be killing *claimed to have an intellectually disability* Ernest Johnson on Oct 5.

*
Ohio seems to have entered modern civilisation from the darkness of death chambers...the two remaining inmates on their death row and scheduled to be killed by the state on Sept 15 and Dec 9 have been reprieved.

Not so Texas and Oklahoma ... they still seem to be operating a *conveyor belt system* in the darkness of death houses.
I toured Auschwitz today...it was barbaric killing by the state too.
