Those are just the ones who donated more or less directly.

There are a lot of others who received Russian money from the NRA, which laundered a lot of it.

Agree.
And remember Deripaska is the Russian money behind the Rudy Giuliani fake Biden/Ukraine conspiracy theory.

This may be a quaint notion these days, but congress cannot cede it's constitutional powers to the executive branch by statute.

That is as good a reason to vote against it as any.

Congress needs to be involved in these decisions.

Hmmm. Congress voted to give its war-making powers over to Presiden Bush.

Hmmm. Congress voted to give its war-making powers over to Presiden [sic] Bush.

Hi, j brown's body!

We have a national anthem. Various other organizations, notably our colleges, have songs. I submit that one be selected for the Congress of the United States of Amrica.

My suggestion: Sidestep, from The Best Little Whorehouse In Texas, Larry L. King, Peter Masterson, and Carol Hall.

Regards, stay safe 'n well.

Hmmm. Congress voted to give its war-making powers over to Presiden Bush.

First of all, I did not justify that decision.

Secondly, the war powers act of 1973 did that (wrongfully IMO) as well.

One wrong decision does not justify another, agreed?

That would be my point - knowing congress as I do and how they routinely pad bills - PLUS ogre Nancy's infamous "We must pass the bill to know what's in it" inanity...

No different than when McConnell was asked about his platform if they won back the senate. He said, when we win back the senate, we'll let you know.

On to the Senate...

WHY don't the first three names surprise me?

Speaking of that idiot Boebert, did she ever figure out which Prince John she was fantasizing about yet?
