If it was not early morning, with 60 armed SWAT officers and live streamed on CNN was it a real arrest?

There was not a single post on the first main Off Topic page with Trump's name it so I thought I would bring one to the front.

I have always noticed that Trump appears to wear hair spray to keep his mullet under control. I wonder if he wears Hai Karate, too?

I'm joking. It's all in good fun.



He even talks about hairspray!

The Democrats’ worst nightmare is that the warm weather (as I write this the forecast for New York City in three days is 84 degrees) will cause this cold virus to disappear, as all others usually do once the cold-and-flu season ends in May or early June every year. Even if this occurs, their stooges in the “mainstream media” will spend the next several months continuing their reign of terror about a theoretical return of the deadly virus (the death rate of which even Dr. Brixx now says is exaggerated by the CDC by 25%). In short, any kind of economic recovery before the election is the Democrats’ worst nightmare; they will do anything they can to avoid it.
This is Tump’s right (political) achilles heel. Taking away his ability to boast of his economic accomplishments and to display his popularity through those monster campaign rallies will make it almost impossible for him to win.
Of course, it is likely that after the election will come stagflation – rising price inflation and unemployment, the latter caused by the inevitable bursting of another round of Fed-created bubbles in the economy. That’s a story for another day.

Inner DC Workings

I may have previously posted an article about the inter-workings of our government, but here is another one I found interesting:

https://theconservativetreehouse.com...s-running-out/

Pay particular attention mid-way through the article about the process of how legislation is initiated.

Then why would the Democrats propose and pass a 3 TRILLION dollar stimulus plan (with admittedly quite a bit of uneccessary pork attatched)? That will help alliviate some of the economic problems in the short term.Doing nothing would have been more advantageous for the Dems in November.

Pelosi knew here faux stimulus package was DOA to the Senate and POTUS, but she did it to say "We passed this in the House and it was shot-down by the GOP/Trump, so look who wasn't trying to help the people"....She's a real clever bitch, lost her soul long ago...."Let them eat cake....err.....ICE CREAM"...

Well NY is dead, no bail out for north east socialism. They can sell Central Park or something. It is said that there is more oil under times square than there is in the middle east, Iran's reserves are around 30 %, when they get out from under the virus in the fall just let them start something.

That bills is an insult to us all.
Dems taking advantage of the pandemic to push it their pathetic agenda and further delay help from those who need it.
Couldn't even get all the dems to vote for it.

It is nothing but a political attack.

This bill the reason congress has such a low approval rating - it is a disgusting play that embarrasses our entire nation.

Pelosi is a useless bitch.

Pelosi was rightly blamed for delaying the other bills trying to get stuff in like money for the Kennedy Center and Planned Abortionhood, so she got this one in 'early'.

IMO...the whole thing is a Congress setup to delay paying out the money as long as they possibly can. This is the classic "good cop/bad cop" situation...played out in the political arena.

Senate Intel Committee votes on DNI John Ratliffe today.
That would leave outgoing Richard Grenelle the perfect choice to replace Christopher Wray as the head of the FBI.
