Secret donors and Trump allies: Inside the operation to push noncitizen voting laws in Florida and other states
So does "only a citizen" include "every citizen", or just some citizens? The current wording is a statement of rights; the new wording, of restrictions.
Considering the source, my guess is that it’s very inclusive — all native born free white male property owners without restriction or discrimination??
and 5/8ths of all others.
Everything's fine. Move along…
WAKE UP, WILBUR – “Because he tends to fall asleep in meetings, they try not to put him in a position where that could happen so they’re very careful and conscious about how they schedule certain meetings. There’s a small window where he’s able to focus and pay attention and not fall asleep.”
‘It’s a disaster over there’: Commerce reaches new heights of dysfunction
Are we back in the Reagan administration? I remember when the staff tried so hard to conceal how fragile the old man was, and that was before anyone knew his cookies were sliding off the platter. Are Wilbur's where they belong?
Trump tweets budget deal has been struck
That's quite a gift to give (what you hope is) a Democratic president in their first year in office…
The Democratic President inaugurated in January 2021 will have SO much cleaning up to do – a cratering economy, environmental and humanitarian disasters, a total loss of faith in the federal government, and on and on. The debt ceiling will be a minor issue on the long list of things to do.
Sure. Just look at 2011.
Yup, if a Dem wins, it'll be Deficits are going to destroy us! Cut taxes for billionaires and give them bailouts, and pay for it with austerity for all the heathens (or those that make less than $350k per year). Oh, and don’t forget to give the Pentagon budget another $100 billion boost!
What happened to the weekend open thread? Alva?

I give up.
What happened?
Why Sanders and Biden both suck:
Biden and Sanders, Behaving Badly (A bad-faith debate over health care coverage.)
https://www.nytimes.com/2019/07/22/opinion/biden-sanders-health-care.html?smid=nytcore-ios-share
. . . or how Joe and Bernie brought their particular take on that disgusting, and too familiar, “Bob and Curmy” routine, to the healthcare debate.
. . . Dog spare us all from the fragile bruised egos of posturing privileged septuagenarian white males . . .
The sooner folks toss off both these bellicose way-past-their-“best-by-date” old fools (i.e., Bernie and Joe, that is . . . maaaaybe?), the better.
10th Circuit reverses TABOR ruling, says lawsuit can challenge Colorado law’s constitutionality
Knock on wood… but if the plaintiffs do get to court and TABOR is found unconstitutional, expect great weeping, wailing, teeth gnashing, etc from the righties. Recall fever be damned – TABOR is the hill they’ll die on, no matter how many potholes and underfunded schools they have to pass to get there.
And there won't be a thing ol' Doug Bruce can do about it. Ain't that grand?
Lack of standing is the strawman which will empower courts to advance the right wing agenda.
If only someone had told us.
