Jeffries has been speaking for over five hours on the House floor about the One Big Bad Betrayal. He's doing a bang up job. According to the rules, as a House leader he has unlimited time to speak before the final vote. He's not looking or sounding fatigued at all.

The longest speech was 8 hours 32 minutes by Kevin McCarthy in 2021. Jeffries only needs another 3.5 hours to beat it. I've had my criticisms of Jeffries, but by god, he's an excellent orator. Not as good as Senator Cory Booker, but pretty damn good.

So democrat, this stunt.
Right behind that idiot was a dem rep, sound asleep in her chair and clearly visible in the camera shot.

The morons are just so bad at their performative politics. They’re like a grade school play at this point.

Dope1: So democrat, this stunt.

Well, at least it didn't cost taxpayers $45 million like the Trump Birthday Parade stunt... so there's that.

But, yeah, Congress on both sides has been reduced to pointless theater.

My two cents: Jeffries and Schumer should both step down.

I'd agree about Schumer, but Jeffries has never had a chance to be House Speaker.

First and foremost, it was called for by Trump, and it “just so happened” to be his birthday.

The US Army obviously gave him his birthday parade under duress. They followed their orders given by Trump via Pete Kegseth, but it wasn’t a rousing martial display of military prowess as Trump was hoping for.

He was so disappointed he went and bombed Iran, and then lied about the results of the bombing.That didn’t work out so well for him either.

So what does an aspiring dictator do to win back the respect of his base?

Time to play an oldie but a goodie for the MAGA faithful;


Alligator Alcatraz

Fuck these Nazis.

No, that was the lib interpretation, and we know that point of view is driven by ‘shroom consumption.

Yeah, from the looks of it they hated interacting with the people.

but it wasn’t a rousing martial display of military prowess

lol. Why do you hate the troops?

You know that mushrooms are bad for you, right?

Smart people on this board have told you how gas centrifuges work.
