Delivers Brutal Response After McCarthy’s Acting Replacement Orders Her to Vacate Her Office Immediately

“This eviction is a sharp departure from tradition. As , I gave former Speaker Hastert a significantly larger suite

“Office space doesn’t matter to me, but it seems important to them,” added. “Now that the new Leadership has settled this important matter, let’s hope they get to work on what’s truly important to the American people”

Well, Hastert did need the extra room for all the child raping

The GOP is fracturing in the House (the first time in history that a Speaker has been removed.) MAGA Republicans almost shut down the government out of pure petulance. Trump is in court facing fraud allegations. The judge in another Trump case just issued a gag order on Trump. GOP presidential candidates are talking about invading Mexico. Lauren Boebert is still serving in Congress despite groping and being groped by her date in public. (Al Franken was forced to resign for much less.)

Consensual groping <> nonconsensual.

A paper from University of Utah researchers in the journal Obstetrics & Gynecology found that 1 in 5 OB-GYN residents altered their intended practice state following the Dobbs decision.

Not surprising.

, when we already have a teacher shortage and an Ob-Gyn shortage, passing laws to make things worse will eventually translate to those corporations you love to woo refusing to move to

The senate finished voting around 9pm, which gives the president about 3 hours to receive, sign, and return the bill before funding for the federal government expires at midnight.

How does this actually work? I'm imagining there's some clerk on the Senate floor furiously re-installing drivers for a frozen-up printer, or perhaps searching for an unexpired cyan toner cartridge in time to get a printout ready to drive down to the White House before the deadline.

Why not just send it virtually to be printed at the White House?

    Oh, so the window wasn't at home? That makes a bit more sense rules wise. I still don't see how it'd keep attention for a full hour.

    BBC says they saw the announcement on twitter.

    What independent channels does the governor of New York have to communicate with residents? In Sweden it would be the public FM radio system.

    Or does getting an emergency announcement in New York depend on you having access to some kind of commercial media?

    katrinakatrinka,

    There's still AM radio.

    katrinakatrinka,

    @Loukas
    My parents have always had at least a transistor radio that played AM channels. NPR, local public radio, college radio, all those channels are on the AM radio band.

    That's always been a reliable source for the emergency broadcast system, and it still is.

    If you have the internet, a car with a radio, or just a radio, you have access. Most emergency generators have radios, too.

    On Nov. 27, 1978, the late Dianne Feinstein, then the 45-year-old president of the San Francisco Board of Supervisors and two-time failed mayoral candidate called a press conference to announce her retirement.

    That afternoon, a supervisor killed Mayor George Moscone and Supervisor Harvey Milk.

    Feinstein handled the moment with poise, and went on to serve 9 years as mayor and 3 decades in the U.S. Senate.

    It's funny how Eric Moustas (the former police officer who first became public after quitting over his refusal to police the Pride parade and later promoted anti-mask protests) comes into the story.

    I wonder if he sees weakness and is hoping to sweep Ballard followers into his group instead.

    Natalie Cline and her supporters are nothing more than bullies with power. That they would use that power against a very few children (while pretending that those children are anything more powerful than just individual human children) is monstrous.

    She is preaching eliminationist, genocidal ideology and too many people are treating her as credible and tolerating her rhetoric.

    Her job isn't to determine which kids deserve rights. All kids in Utah deserve full human rights.
