Political shenanigans by both parties are nothing new in Washington, but I have a sense that this level of dysfunction is exceptionally destructive. As I read this morning's litany of madness it became clear to me that this is a sample of how Donald Trump finds endless ways to throw sand in the gears of the system, even when he is short on funds and facing criminal indictments.
Trump's Florida residence has become to Republicans what the Vatican is to Roman Catholics, the place where even those seeking more than they will get still make the pilgrimage to kiss the man's ring, if only for the benefit of being seen going thru the motions.
These are the exercises of an aspiring mob boss. I hope everyone is paying attention.
On Phil Gramm, I have had to learn to like him as well as Warren Rudman and Fritz Hollings. When you have a pilot slot in AFROTC and you get injured, that act was the reason given to excuse your service in 1987
My question is this: If Democrats actually want FISA to be renewed, why did they all vote “NO”. So much reporting that the 19 GOPs derailed the action but actually so did the Dems.
The minority party almost never helps pass 'rules' to set the terms of debate. Also, this rule allowed debate on several others measures which attacked President Biden on immigration, and policy on Israel. The majority party has to carry those items forward, not the Democrats. That's why the divisions within the GOP are the salient issue.

Glad to find out I was not the only Ultraman fan. You can make your children relive your childhood on YouTube. https://youtube.com/playlist?list=PLT7obiC2E-oBY9P-R_lUOBlSvJNrMaaJU&si=943TCfmcRLlqbqaW
Fond memories of rushing home from elementary school to watch Ultraman, Speed Racer, and Spiderman on channel 20 in the DC area. Long live Captain 20!
Ultraman on WTBS channel 17. Those were the days!

Thank you! It’s great to have a guy in DC to make clear the chaos!
