I was at a military industry conference a month or so ago, with several flag level officers giving talks. The total amount of lost years of experience and senior leadership in the military and intelligence agencies is staggering. It is going to take generations to recover.
The same Congress that let Trump unilaterally levy a tax on every American business and citizen?
They could be manufacturing prototypes or examples for apprentices. It’s also replicas were made for trade to demonstrate the shape to others, or tokens of appreciation, or adapted into toys / primitive dice. <shrug>
To play the devil’s advocate, it’s certainly possible Trump publicly supports the House voting to release the original documents because he either 1) has ironclad assurance that it’ll die in the Senate, or 2) will just pocket veto the bill. There was substantial political downside to them opposing their release, and many many ways for them to kill this whole thing in the future.
Trump doesn’t want the files released, but their Legislative Affairs and Communications Director finally woke up to a strategy that wasn’t political suicide.
This is a monumentally dumb and deadly idea. Want to watch the US cease to exist as a global super power? Good luck maintaining our nuclear arsenal without paying people.
Oregon has been entirely state-wide mail-in voting for decades. Good luck shutting down an entire state’s mail for more than a month.
Their stance is Trump came out of his two impeachments politically stronger than he went into them, and unless 14 20 GOP Senators decide to switch their allegiance all of a sudden the act of impeachment is practically useless.
Edit: I fucked up the math, thanks commenter
Nah, they are going to say, “this is perfect evidence why we need even less government”
Well, it took private equity over a decade to eventually kill Toys ”R” Us. Two years would be speed running their demise.
Yeah… their team won. The idea that Trump voters will be ousted first is more fantastical than an actual day dream.
They have moved it indoors to the Capitol Rotunda.
Oregon has entirely mail-in voting, since the 1990s. Good luck getting us to give it up.
It’s neither here or there, but there’s no “D” in “consequences” either….
