The chair needs to have the power to shut off microphones.  Or else to declare permanent "technical difficulties" that prevents MTG's microphone from working at all.
The future is all around us, waiting, in moments of transition, to be born in moments of revelation. No one knows the shape of that future or where it will take us. We know only that it is always born in pain.   -G'Kar

Bayraktar!

I haven't follow this closely. Would you say this made MTG and the GOP look like tools and the Democrats reasonable, or is this more of a "Look at all these clowns in congress! Both sides!" thing?

More of a MTG yammering constantly and AOC and Jasmin Crockett tossing back zingers while the chair haplessly tries to restore order.

I couldn't tell what AOC said that might have set the Georgia Troll off, but everything after that she acted like an adult.  Crocket was definitely talking serious smack, but in the context of asking Committee Chairman Pseudoscience what was allowed and what was not.  I'm fine with that.

MTG manages what I thought would be impossible by making AOC look reasonable.

Saw a middle aged guy with a "Let's Go Brandon" t-shirt on the subway the other day. Unsure if they knew what it was actually referring to.

Let's see, best of times, no, worst of times, no, age of wisdom, not at all, or here it is: "It was the age of foolishness."



That third lady's intervention at the end, while hilarious in a way, certainly didn't help things either. They should know better than to engage that retarded blonde bitch at her level.

Anyways, feels like we are one more step closer to this:

I'm pretty sure if Dwayne Comacho was actually running for president he'd win in a landslide.

President Dwayne Mountain Dew Herbert Camacho was a steely-eyed technocrat who recruited the smartest man alive and empowered him to do whatever was needed to solve their biggest problems.  :hmm:

I dunno. Its a curious thought.
America is America so maybe its different. But in Europe our fasc tend to love it when there's a minority on their side. Lets them point and go "See! Its not racist to say muslims are all pigs and should be killed! Here's an Arab guy saying it!".
Even a bit away from the extreme, some of the most prominent and despicable Tories in recent years have been ethnic minorities.

No I think you're right.  MAGA would happily vote for a black man who shared their values.
