    Steve Scalise says Republicans had disagreements with President Obama but that they "never disrespected the office" of the presidency.

    A man shouted "You lie!" at Obama *while he was in the middle of addressing Congress*.

    let me add, the "man" was a Congressman from SC.
    who was in fact invited to the White House the next day for basketball and conversation.

    BREAKING:
    Sen. Rand Paul (R-KY) has blocked an attempt to pass an extension of the

    September 11th Victim Compensation Fund, pointing to the country's growing

    debt and arguing that any new spending should be offset by cuts to other spending.

    NOTE: Rand Paul voted for a $1 trillion tax cut

    for corporations without any spending offsets


    Remind me again the noblesse of father and son Paul !!

    Rand Paul is a deficit hawk when voting against support for 9/11 victims.

    Rand Paul is a spendthrift when voting for billionaire and corporate welfare.

    Fiscal conservatism is a myth
    , an excuse to tighten the purse strings when it’s time to help everyday folks.

    Rand Paul is a dick
    This week alone, and it is only Wednesday, you have defended (or at the very least took the side of) a liar, cheat , racist misogynistic despot wannabe and ... a guy that gets in a fight with his neighbors about keeping his grass cut and trash picked up.

    So the Democrats are for open borders, late term operations, high taxes and high crime. Jokes

    REMINDER:

    Kentucky, whose voters have given us both Mitch McConnell & Rand Paul,

    is the state second-most-dependent upon federal dollars, the majority

    of which come from blue states such as New York.

    But please, Rand, tell us more about how we

    can't afford to help 9/11 victims.

    This is kinda like you jumping on Warren for saying we live in a democracy. It’s a silly and obtuse pedantic point (and so stereotypical that it’s a meme): aCtUaLly it’s a rEpubLic. Well, no ****. A constitutional republic whose representatives are democratically elected. So, likewise, the Fed Reserve board is not elected, but appointed by the executive branch, subject to confirmation by the Senate. So what’s wrong with that formulation, exactly?

    True, but on the flip side it would be fun to see some people’s racism and xenophobia battle with their anti-abortion sentiments here.

    I laugh when you complain about someone making a pedantic point.

    But I'm betting AOC doesn't know what the federal reserve is

    I get that you think that AOC is, like, actually stupid. That take is purely explained by the media you consume. Garbage in, garbage out. “Betting” that says a lot about you, frankly. Whatever you think of her politics, her work in hearings shows a lot more capacity than you’re willing to admit, for obvious reasons.
