Just another reminder that the Republicans have the power to stop this ride at any time they want.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Spoiler alert: “Top Republicans” will bottom for Trump and take it with zero resistance like they have for almost a decade. They have no pride, loyalty to country, or actual power.
They sold their souls to the devil and won’t do anything but complain about it privately while supporting and voting for treason publicly.
Are you saying top Republicans are power bottoms?
"Trump is keeping us out of the loop!"
- An actual complaint from literally the only people in the country with the power to do something about it.
It's just a lie anyways, it gives them plausible denial when the public screams.
If only you’d grow some balls and compel the Executive Branch to somehow keep you IN the loop. I wonder what that might look like?
But some would like a heads-up on office closures, staffing cuts and other changes that affect their constituents.
That's just so they know when to stop taking calls.
But this has always been the plan. The GOP have wanted this for years. If they still bother pretending to care, any outrage you see will be purely for performance.
Dang maybe they should just fucking die already
Liars.

But our lord and savior, he doesn’t speak BACK. We can’t infer or take ANY kind of actions.
Does that sound like a typical Bible thumping Wingnut? Not knowing what’s going on hasn’t stopped them before. Fucking spineless.
Believe me, we are aware of all sorts of things about this "Signal," the best people tell me, really smart people, they're talking. I don't know it, never met it, but I hear it's out there, maybe doing things, maybe not. But let me tell you, we have the best encryption, the greatest, nobody does encryption like we do, and that's what's important..
Old fucks tuned out thenews for so long they didn't hear about how the new administration operates without them.
