As much as I don't want to plug Ro Khana here, this seems newsworthy. They called them all back to the Capital to cast a vote on FISA reauthorization. Why in the hell do they do shite like this in the middle of the night? What a bunch of frickin snakes.

Don’t overthink it…..he literally thinks in three letter bursts. OMB, FDT and such. But mostly just OMB.

At this point, let’s see the slush fund recipients and let it burn.

Bag of freaks in DC. That’s why TMZ is setting up shop there. Pedos in Hollywood are yesterday’s doughnuts.

Of all bills to do in the shadows it shouldn’t be this one.

But if Trump uses it in kind the way they used it against him, a debt or two could get settled. Needs to expire in 2028.

Holy shite. I thought HHTM was in a bad way back when he was broken by Trump, but you are every bit as eaten up with stupid as he was back then, probably more. Pull your head out of your arse and actually start thinking rather than just melting and believing every OMB retard on X.

Trump certainly has some issues, but whipping up Congress to hold secret votes is not one of them. If he had that much sway on Capital Hill, the SAVE Act would have long been passed.

They extended it till April 30.

Educate yourself. Trump now supports it after explicitly campaigning against it.

Trump supporting this after campaigning on it is a really bad look. He is struggling delivering domestic headline wins. We know the media is going to be bias and lie and bury things but he shouldn’t be having this many missteps. Hey Israel is happy though so maybe eventually we can get back to domestic wins

Trump is who was pushing for it. He and Tulsi both flip flopped.

The “I don’t like him, but I like his policies” crowd is having a rough year….
