Yea, I think you are correct. The BBB will be voted on July 4th, not the budget. I had my facts backward. That said, I still don’t anticipate a lot of DHS pushback. Although I hope congress does change it considerably. It’s a mess as is.

It’s already passed the house. The senate plans on voting on it by July 4th. So far, no push back from senate republicans on the DHS side of things.

According to Wikipedia:

“The Republican-led Senate is expected to amend the bill.[63] Fiscally conservative Republican Senators (nicknamed “deficit hawks”) such as Ron Johnson of Wisconsin, Rick Scott of Florida, Mike Lee of Utah and Rand Paul of Kentucky, have pushed for deeper spending cuts.[63][64] Moderate Republicans such as Susan Collins of Maine, Lisa Murkowski of Alaska and Jerry Moran of Kansas, along with populist Josh Hawley of Missouri, have expressed concerns about Medicaid cuts.[63][65] Other moderates such as John Curtis of Utah and Thom Tillis of North Carolina, along with Murkowski and Moran, have also expressed concerns over the end of green energy tax credits.[63] Defense hawks such as Mike Rounds of South Dakota are opposed to spectrum auction provisions in the bill.”

I keep seeing posts like this, but the sad truth is they are going to be just fine. The DHS just got a 65% increase in their budget for 2026 to go to 60 billion dollars. I believe this is the largest percentage increase since it began. That is almost 4x the budget of NASA and includes 40 billion in discretionary spending.

Even if they run out of money before September, Congress will trip over themselves to give them more money. There are zero checks on Noem at this point.

Hmmmm….

From Wikipedia:

“Witkoff, who is Jewish, was born in the Bronx in New York City, and was raised in Baldwin Harbor, New York and Old Westbury, New York on Long Island.[8][9][10][11] He is the son of Martin and Lois Witkoff.[12] His father was a manufacturer of ladies’ coats in New York City.[13][12] His paternal grandfather and grandmother were both born in the Russian Empire.[14][15]”

Got you covered!

“A 2013 global study on homicide by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime found that men account for an average of 95% of all persons convicted of homicide”

They can, but you are 7.5 times more likely to be murdered by a man.

There is no profit in securing customer data and there is no drawback for the company when data breaches occur. Without regulation, there will never be motivation for companies to give a shit.

They will apologize like Old navy does every few years for sweatshops, claim they really care and promise to improve (they won’t).

What the apology really means?

“Enjoy your free year of credit monitoring and fuck off.”

I think you mean Lauren Boebert. Sarah Palin had a pregnant daughter who was 17 at the time. Same difference though.

Meanwhile, I can’t even get to the interview stage…

Not just athletes, but politicians, CEOs, rock stars, pretty much anyone that has money doesn’t have to abide by laws.

Here is the link to the report. It wasn’t in the article.

I completely agree with the conditioning, but the crazier part is even if his base knew some horrible tapes were real, I don’t think they would care. It’s sunk cost fallacy at this point. There is nothing that will get people off the Trump train.

I’m nearly certain it is true that Russia has dirt on him. But serious question: what possible dirt on trump could even slightly alter his base in the United States? I’m not convinced anything could. They could have videos of him raping an entire kindergarten class and his cult wouldn’t care. So at this point, what power does Putin actually hold? Trump (in theory) could tell Putin to fuck off and that would be the end of it.

I think it’s admiration and not blackmail that keeps trump sucking Putin’s dick. I think Trump looks at Russia and wishes he could have the same unchecked power that Putin has and so he looks up to him.

Regardless of how crooked and obvious of a big deal this is, absolutely nothing will be done about it. The time for consequence in America for politicians has passed.

According to U.S. code:

Whoever, owing allegiance to the United States and having knowledge of the commission of any treason against them, conceals and does not, as soon as may be, disclose and make known the same to the President or to some judge of the United States, or to the governor or to some judge or justice of a particular State, is guilty of misprision of treason and shall be fined under this title or imprisoned not more than seven years, or both.

He is taking money from Russia, who is an enemy of United States, and has the intent to undermine the current government and this year’s election. He didn’t report it and benefited financially from it. Sounds like it fits the code well to me.

In a normal world he would be in prison for treason. There is no way he wasn’t aware of what was happening when he was being paid 100,000 a week.
