Congress ordering food & drink while holding votes?

Why? Just saw on tv that they are sleeping and ordering breakfast while hearing amendments and voting. Isn't that wrong when one party has state legislatures passing laws prohibiting food and drink to be brought to long voting lines in general elections?

I'm due for a new bottle of whiskey and St. Patty's Day is coming up

So rather than my usual fifth of Canadian Club, I thought I would buy an Irish Whiskey.
Hey my stimulus is coming soon, so I can afford it, right?

I've had Jameson's and Bushmill's.
Are there any others you can vouch for as worthy of my stimulus money?

And if anyone is concerned about it, I had one Irish Great Grandparent, Miriam Kelly.
So I have a wee bit o' Irish in me.

Let me know what you think !

I know someone here can calculate how many Americans the 57 Convict votes represent ?

Millions more than the 43 acquit votes represent. I'm sure.

Todd Young R-Indiana redeems himself in two words, "SHE'S NUTTY." re MTG

I put this in Indiana first but it will get greater visibility here:

Has anyone heard of current major windows update ?

Know someone hosed on updates over an hour today. I rebooted my laptop but nothing in the way of updates happened. At least not yet.

Joe Manchin concerned re Covid Bill $$ amounts, but

In the press conference today it was noted that the FIRST state to receive a FEMA VACCINATION CENTER IS GOING TO BE, you guessed it, West Virginia.

Hell, by the end of summer Joe will get six lane highways running all over the state to the FEMA Center.

But he is CONCERNED. about all that money being proposed.

MSNBC brief mention: STAFF of 5th District of Virginia involved (?)

Looks like a huge gerry--mandered district. Stretches from bottom to almost the top of the state.
Incumbent was primaried last year and it has a new (farther right?) Congressman.
The dem still only lost it 52-47.
That's my quick take on the district.


Within last 20 mins, MSNBC said:
1. looks like involvement from inside the capitol.
then shortly after,
2. And I definitely heard them say Virginia 5th staff.

If the coup had killed Pence, Pelosi, and Grassley. Mike Pompeo would now be 2nd in line. Qui Bono?

Do you think Pompeo himself, with his huge ego, was not the main motivator for his move from defense to state? That moved him up two spots.

Jan. 6 would have moved him up 3 more.
Success of a coup on January 6 and one more outrage and he is President.
With Martial Law in place, probably.

Qui Bono. Who Benefits?
