JUST IN: Trump says Labor Secretary Acosta has become a distraction and that deputy Pat Pizzella will become acting secretary 162 8:46 AM - Jul 12, 2019
All those displaced people have to go somewhere. They aren't just going to stand still as the waters slowly drown them.Miami/etc is unfortunately going to flood before the red areas of Florida like the panhandle that we need to make part of Alabama.
I just realized most people probably didn't look in the spoiler because they expected the tweet text to be copy pasted there, but I used it for the punchline:
Also there is a very key word 'may'. He may survive. Sure. Any honest read of polling and trends gives him a none zero chance of winning next year.Arnold is not only the villain in Terminator, but he is crushed to death approximately 8-10 minutes later by a woman.
Yeah this has been my sticking point even as I am increasingly frustrated by Pelosi's lame-ass messaging (or lack thereof). They've got 80 confirmed votes, and while I'm sure there are a number of sideline-sitters who would ultimately vote for impeachment if it came up, it would almost surely fail.There isn't even a majority in the House that will initiate articles of impeachment.
If a floor vote is called it will fail.
Is that supposed to be a good look?

MOULTON: "No. I think we hung out w/ different groups of friends. Not at all, I was not hanging out w/ Harvard Dems."

And I think the second thing that I saw ... the big headline was just Harris vs. Biden. And, you know, like, I don't know why Biden didn't just say — and look I value him as a mentor and a friend, he's a great guy — but why didn't he just say, 'Look, if I offended you, I'm sorry.
I suggest we refer to this scandalous state of affairs as "Pizzella-gate.""Acting secretary"
Meaning he'll not nominate anyone now, despite the fact that he has essentially a rubberstamp in the senate.
Glad Acosta is gone, now hopefully this gains even more media attention and the focus is entirely on Trump's association with Epstein.
Why does how many people would vote to impeach now matter? There is evidence gathering and public testimony before you get to that point. Whether you think of it as making the case to the house members or their constituents doesnt matter.Yeah this has been my sticking point even as I am increasingly frustrated by Pelosi's lame-ass messaging (or lack thereof). They've got 80 confirmed votes, and while I'm sure there are a number of sideline-sitters who would ultimately vote for impeachment if it came up, it would almost surely fail.
And of course Pelosi has significant sway over the caucus, but I don't think aggressive impeachment talk from her is gonna get them from 80+ to 218 alone.
That doesn't mean I'm satisfied with her being so passive about it, though.
And this twit wonders why he's at 0%Translation: "Fuckin' nerds!"
And look at this fresh take on how to apologize:
I'm sure these detention centers had no warning and have not staged everything to look perfect?

I don't know if that's possible. Sure, they could take efforts to protect key economic centers, but the greater Miami area is a basically a collection of islands, marshes and sandbars. It's just too big a problem to tackle logistically.
You can't make a seawall to protect the city like New Orleans. Florida has porous bedrock and will flood regardless
They should have started impeachment hearings the second the Mueller Report came out and hammered everything in that report home and out in the open
No one was gonna read it anyways and the longer we stay silent on it the less tolerant the ignorant masses are gonna be of the constant media blitz

It's clear that Alex Acosta lied repeatedly about the sweetheart deal he struck with Epstein. My bet: When Barr invents some fake new theory to defend Acosta's refusal to testify in Congress about those lies, Acosta will resign rather than be torn to shreds in cross-examination.

Will any cabinet position have stayed filled throughout Trump's presidency?
I guess Elaine Chao, Rick Perry and Ben Carson will have been there from the beginning.
