Why would they do this? From the Hill. link“GOP senators block bill expanding care for veterans exposed to toxins”From the article… ”Republican lawmakers blocked passage of a bill in the U.S. Senate Wednesday that expands healthcare coverage for military veterans who were exposed to toxins and burn pits during their service. All Democrats and eight Republicans voted for the Sgt. 1st Class Heath Robinson Honoring Our PACT Act, but the 55 yes votes fell short of the 60 needed to end a filibuster in the Senate. Three Senators did not vote.” |

I think Twitter comments are almost as bad as the comments on Yahoo 'news' stories. I really hate people sometimes. "what do you want, it's summer- get over it." |

I am putting this here and not the YouTube thread because it is political. This is what is wrong with social media and YouTube. These bloggers have followers who blindly believe everything they post. And many of these YouTube aren't the smartest people and believe this crap then post it like it is truth. She is kind of a prepper I guess. A friend shared this with me, don't know much about her. So of course she has to feed into people's fears to earn money. Thar is how it works. Fear based advertising so you click her links so she can earn money. 🤦♀️ I hope she realizes that Trump and his gang are the ones who damaged the pillars of democracy not Biden.  |

From the Weather Channel…. link“The Hottest Temperatures Recorded in All 50 States”From the article… At a Glance *Every state in the U.S. has an all-time maximum temperature of at least 100 degrees. *Most of the state temperature records were set from late June through August. *Washington is the most recent state to set a new all-time record high temperature. Intense summer heat is no stranger in the United States and all 50 states have recorded a high temperature of at least 100 degrees, with many well above 115. We compiled the hottest temperature on record for each state, according to the National Oceanic and Atmospheric Administration (NOAA), and the results are shown on the map above. July and August typically have some of the hottest temperatures in many areas of the U.S., and it's also when a majority of states have recorded their all-time record highs. An example of an exception to the July and August records is Washington, which is also the most recent state to set a new all-time record high. During the historical heat wave in June 2021, the temperature soared to 120 degrees at Handford on June 29, 2021, which beat out the previous record of 118 in Wahluke on July 24, 1918. Oregon also tied its hottest temperature record of 119 during the June 2021 heat wave. The record of 119 was originally set twice in 1898 and then tied in two different locations on June 29, 2021.” |

McConnell threatened to filibuster the semi conductor bill, but they passed that earlier this week. heathercoxrichardson.substack.com/p/july-27-2022www.politico.com/minutes/congress/07-27-2022/burn-pits-retaliation/ |

McCarthy is 'miffed' about the Senate voting on the bill... He says :they' lied... McCarthy is now miffed it's moving forward saying that he was told it was going to be a regular bill and now it's a reconciliation package. *** They lied about reconciliation. It's very concerning to me why they would — they said they were going to do something without making sure — reconciliation bill and on the day they voted for it they said they've got a deal on reconciliation?" McCarthy stammered when talking to reporters.www.rawstory.com/kevin-mccarthy-budgetbill/ |

Why are they paying his legal fees in the first place? I mean, he keeps telling us he's "really, really rich." If I were an RNC contributor, I'd be ticked off about that. |

The vast majority of folks who own any type of assault weapon have no real need for one regardless of what they want one to believe. They have them because they have to have a “toy” they think makes them look cool.
Any decent person who has an assault weapon, without a real need, would look around and see how they are being used and decide maybe it’s better for the greater good is to get these guns off the street and ban them. For everyone.
Then maybe 13 year old girls can safely play video games in their own home.
It really amazes how more then a few gun owners have so little value for others lives.

After all of the dirty tricks McConnell and McCarthy played - no vote on Merrick Garland, no vote on Jan 6 commission after conceding to McCarthy’s demands etc, I wouldn’t object if the Democrats tricked the Republicans on the reconciliation bill. Time to beat them at their own game. And let the Republicans defend their no votes on help for veterans or the semi conductor bill.

But so what? I’m hard pressed to care. In fact, my belief is that we have Ds who are still laboring under the delusion that if we act honorably, the other party will. Lol. Where’s the proof of that? We get rolled every time we decide to take the high road. |

says Murdoch in Kushner's book .. After Fox News called Arizona for Biden, Murdoch, according to the book, told Kushner, “The numbers are ironclad. It’s not even close.” Subsequent vote recounts in Arizona demonstrated that Murdoch, in that case, was absolutely right: Biden, not Trump, was the clear winner in Arizona. *** Breaking History” has an August 23 release date on Amazon, and previews of Kushner’s book have come from the New York Times’ Maggie Haberman and The Guardian’s Martin Pengelly. In an article published by the Times on July 25, Haberman reported that according to the book, Kushner was secretly treated for thyroid cancer in 2019. www.rawstory.com/not-even-close-rupert-murdoch-told-kushner-that-bidens-arizona-victory-was-ironclad-on-election-night/ |
