Then the GOP waits until the last minute to put the bill together thinking that would give them some leverage over the Democrats, but couldn't even agree among themselves what should be in it once they finally started.


That's governing.  It's not always agreement within party.

Which is why they should not have waited until the last minute to try and find consensus.

And why you should try addressing my point, instead of taking a piece of a sentence out of context just because that is the only part you have a response to.

Watch for more favors being granted to Putin as the election gets closer:

About time someone speaks up.

Are these same riots that were instigated by White Supremacists pretending to be BLM protesters?

Yeah:

Funny how kiidcarter8 said nothing when this story broke.

"About time someone speaks up."

Heh.

After.

Nope.  Trump needs the help going into the election.  And will make sure Putin knows that help will be rewarded.

Kind of like how he says nothing while Putin pays to have our troops killed:

And if Trump loses?

Does he use the remaining 2.65 months to do everything to fuck Russia over?  Or does he need to keep it smooth for when Jared runs?

But CNN's Kaitlan Collins doubled back on the topic of Immanuel, who also touted the zero-evidence claim that hydroxychloroquine is a “cure for Covid.”

"The woman that you said is ‘a great doctor’ in that video that you retweeted last night said that masks don’t work and there is a cure for COVID-19—both of which health experts say is not true," Collins said to Trump. "She’s also made videos saying that doctors make medicine using DNA from aliens and that they’re trying to create a vaccine to make you immune from becoming religious. So what’s the logic in retweeting that?"

Trump questioned whether it was same woman. “Well maybe it’s the same, maybe it’s not," he said, "but I can tell you this. She was on air, along with many other doctors, they were big fans of hydroxychloroquine. And I thought she was very impressive, in the sense that from where she came—I don’t know which country she comes from—but she said that she’s had tremendous success with hundreds of different patients and I thought her voice was an important voice, but I know nothing about her.”

But when reporters persisted in asking Trump about his push for mask wearing last week, he abruptly ended the briefing—as in, ran for cover.

To be fair,  I think we have to acknowledge that the incubus and succubus minorities have been ignored for too long and felt... voiceless.   Trump's progressive move,  acknowledging their existence,  will surely help him garner more votes from the incorporeal bloc.

Well, to be fair, the idea that Trump's mother had dream sex with the devil while she was pregnant with Donald would explain a lot about our current situation.

US officials: Russia behind spread of virus disinformation

some of the coverage appeared to denigrate Trump’s Democratic challenger, Joe Biden, and called to mind Russian efforts in 2016 to exacerbate race relations in America and drive corruption allegations against U.S. political figures.

"We don't retreat here in Detroit. We're just not gonna do it," Craig told host Tucker Carlson. "You saw the images ... of streets where there was lawlessness, looting, burning. No sign of police officers. We weren't giving up ground to the radicals. We just didn't do it."
