I had read earlier he raised a little over $10,000 but had spent only $231 or something like that. Must have been even way more embarrassing to FAKE NEWS media so that's why the bigger number ? As I recall I even saw the spending form.
ROLL CALL REPORTS: Democrats Still Don’t Have the Votes 1:02 pm EDT
“House Democratic leaders were struggling Friday morning to muster the final few votes needed to pass their sweeping $2 trillion budget reconciliation package over cost concerns from moderates.
“Speaker Nancy Pelosi huddled in her Capitol Hill office early Friday with a group of centrists who’ve said they need to see a formal Congressional Budget Office estimate of the measure’s deficit impact and total price tag. Leadership can only afford to lose three votes among Democrats with all Republicans expected to vote ‘no’ on the huge bill, and early indications were that they hadn’t yet corralled enough support.”
CNN REPORTS that members have been in Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s office all day.
DEMOCRATS ARE ONCE AGAIN SNATCHING DEFEAT FROM THE JAWS OF VICTORY.
I AM DISGUSTED WITH THEM, AND NEITHER THEY NOR THIS DEPRAVED NATION ARE WORTHY OF THE PRESIDENT WHO IS NOW SIMPLY TRYING TO RIGHT GREVIOUS WRONGS AND DO WHAT THIS NATION TRULY NEEDS.
HILLSBOROUGH, N.J. — New Jersey state Senate President Steve Sweeney is not conceding in a race The Associated Press called for Edward Durr, a virtually unknown Republican challenger, on Thursday morning.
“The results from Tuesday’s election continue to come in, for instance there were 12,000 ballots recently found in one county,” Sweeney said in an email to POLITICO. “While I am currently trailing in the race, we want to make sure every vote is counted. Our voters deserve that, and we will wait for the final results.” https://www.politico.com/states/new-jersey/whiteboard/2021/11/04/sweeney-not-ready-to-concede-1392307
I think this is what you saw so not as bad as the first impression
Jonathan Last: “I keep banging on about how anti-democratic redistricting has become, where institutional leverage is used to magnify small majorities (or even small minorities) into distortions so that political power is not meaningfully related to electoral support.
“Both parties do this. But not in equal measure. And this week, Republicans at the state-level started showing just how far they were willing to go to exert their institutional leverage…
“Moving towards winner-take-nearly-all defeats the purpose of the House of Representatives. It creates a disconnect between electoral and political power. And it encourages extremism by making party primaries more important than general elections.”
AND MOVES US EVER CLOSER TO THE FASCISTIC DICTATORSHIP THE REPUBLICAN BILLIONAIRES WANT.
According to CNN News, A GOP Lawmaker Says Trump Will Try to Steal Next Election 12:45 pm
Retiring Rep. Anthony Gonzalez (R-OH) has a warning for his fellow Republicans: former President Donald Trump will try to steal the next election.
Said Gonzalez: “I think it’s all pushing towards one of two outcomes: He either wins legitimately, which he may do, or if he loses again, you just try to steal it.”
PREDICTION: TRUMP WILL NEVER, EVER, EVER, EVER, EVER BE PRESIDENT AGAIN.
“Dow is over 36,000. Unemployment has dropped from 6.3% in Jan. to 4.8%. Over 5 million jobs added, a record. 220 million vaccines in 10 months. And only 30% of country think US is on right track. The Democratic Party has a huge messaging problem.” — Former GOP strategist Stuart Stevens, on Twitter. _______ TRUE. BUT JUST REMEMBER:
Part of the people can be fooled all of the time. All of the people can be fooled part of the time. But all of the people cannot be fooled all of the time.
The U.S. economy added 531,000 jobs in October, a strong number that indicates a growing recovery as coronavirus cases declined across the country, the Washington Post reports.
The unemployment rate dropped slightly to 4.6 percent from 4.8 percent.
THE NEW YORK TIMES SAYS: Democrats Deny Political Reality at Their Own Peril
The New York Times editorial board issues a scathing warning for Democrats:
“Tuesday’s election result trend lines were a political nightmare for the Democratic Party, and no Democrat who cares about winning elections in 2022 and the presidential race in 2024 should see them as anything less.
“Familiar takeaways like ‘wake-up call’ and ‘warning shot’ don’t do justice here because the danger of ignoring those trends is too great. What would do justice, and what is badly needed, is an honest conversation in the Democratic Party about how to return to the moderate policies and values that fueled the blue-wave victories in 2018 and won Joe Biden the presidency in 2020.”

THE HILL REPORTS: Jayapal Says Spending Bill Is Worth Losing the House
Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) said that it’s worth Democrats passing the party’s sweeping social spending and climate change package even if they lose the House in next year’s midterm elections.
Said Jayapal: “What’s the alternative? To do nothing. I mean, that’s not gonna that’s not gonna get us anywhere… part of what we have to do is really understand the economic frustration that people have right now. And I think that is really important for us.”
B.S. JAYAPAL! No, doing the right thing should get things humming and the Dems may NOT lose the house.

MORE IMPORTANT: How Ultrawealthy Politicians Avoided Paying Taxes
ProPublica: “IRS records reveal how Gov. Jim Justice, Gov. Jared Polis, former Education Secretary Betsy DeVos and other wealthy political figures slashed their taxes using strategies unavailable to most of their constituents.”
THAT NEEDS TO STOP, I DON'T CARE WHICH POLITICAL PARTY THEY BELONG TO.
“Dow is over 36,000. Unemployment has dropped from 6.3% in Jan. to 4.8%. Over 5 million jobs added, a record. 220 million vaccines in 10 months. And only 30% of country think US is on right track. The Democratic Party has a huge messaging problem.” — Former GOP strategist Stuart Stevens, on Twitter.
- Nobody other than investors has ever cared about the DJIA - Unemployment is not at issue because anyone who wants a job has been able to find one for months. This number now only really reflects how many people choose to work. - Inflation is still digging into people's disposable income. You pay $4.00/gallon to drive to work and places, pay more for milk, butter, bread, meat, etc and you have less money left over from your paycheck. That has a tangible effect. - We are experiencing empty shelves at grocery stores because of supply chain issues at a national level. People are worried that they will not be able to find X-mas gifts even.
Covid is stubbornly not going away and last night at the NHL Kraken game I went to you need both a vaccination card and a mask just to watch a fucking hockey game. That is irritating at so many levels and liberals who push it really don't get it and I suspect never will.
We are still hearing about stranded Americans (hundreds at last count) in Afghanistan and the administration seems to have no plan.
We have record number of illegals crossing the border, and rather than stop it, Biden is paying out settlements to the criminals and lying about doing it.
Virginia showed us that the woke CRT cancel culture crap is really really really done in the minds of a majority of Americans. But liberals don't get that. They believe it's about messaging or lies.
I could go on and on, Reverend.
But the fact is that this is not a messaging problem no matter who says it is. It's a reality and policy problem.
Aaron Rodgers was gaslighted by people like you Scott Aaron Rodgers confirms he is unvaccinated, says he is 'disappointed' by media by Jacob Lev, CNN Updated Nov 5, 2021 (CNN) - Green Bay Packers star quarterback Aaron Rodgers confirmed he is unvaccinated against Covid-19 and is disappointed with the treatment he's been receiving in the media while appearing on The Pat McAfee Show on Friday. "I realize I'm in the crosshairs of the woke mob right now," Rodgers said. "So, before my final nail gets put in my cancel culture casket, I think I would like to set the record straight on so many of the blatant lies that are out there about myself." Rodgers said the media was on a "witch hunt" to find out which players were vaccinated and blamed reporters for him saying he was "immunized" back in August. The 37-year-old Rodgers said if any reporter would have asked a follow-up question, he would have explained he's "not an anti-vax flat earther," but that he's a "critical thinker." Rodgers added he has been following the strict NFL protocols for unvaccinated players to a "T." Rodgers described the daily testing he is subjected to every day, even on off days, and believes the rules are in place to shame unvaccinated people. Rodgers says he has been tested over 300 times before testing positive this week. Rodgers said he experienced some mild symptoms for roughly 48 hours but currently "feels really good" He wasn't certain when he would return to the field or what protocols were in place for him now that he tested positive for Covid-19. Rodgers said, "The vaccines do offer some protection for sure but there is a lot we don't know about them. ... There is a lot to natural immunity. ... If you have gotten Covid and recovered from it, that's the best boost to immunity you can have." In August, Rodgers was asked whether he had received the Covid-19 vaccine. Rodgers said he had been "immunized." "There's a lot of conversation around it, around the league, and a lot of guys who have made statements and not made statements," Rodgers said. "Owners have made statements. There's guys on the team that haven't been vaccinated. I think it's personal decision. I'm not going to judge those guys. There's guys that have been vaccinated and contracted Covid. So it's an interesting issue."
The real headline is that Bidenomics is the best in history.
Bidennomics is the most successful in history.
In the late 70s we experienced stagflation, and the Reagan administration introduced top down economics. And the former President who inherited the longest economic recovery in history.
This recovery is the exact opposite solution. Bottom Up Economics
In the last expansion, the United States achieved 4.8 percent unemployment in January 2016 — but didn’t reach 4.6 percent until more than a year later, in February 2017.
Indeed, there are lots of signs that this is a hyper-speed recovery compared to the last one. The share of the 25- to 54-year-old workers who are employed jumped 0.3 percentage points in October.
In the last year that share has risen from 76 percent to 78.3 percent. That same shift took about four and a half years in the last expansion, from September 2012 to February 2017.
Put simply, for all the discussion of labor shortages, and the fact that the share of adults who are part of the labor force has remained well below prepandemic levels, employers keep managing to find people to take jobs. The latest numbers undermine any narrative that the pandemic has caused large masses of people to leave the work force permanently, whether because of government stimulus benefits or personal factors.
Employers are paying more to get those workers, it’s worth noting. Average hourly earnings for private-sector workers were up 0.4 percent in October and are up 4.9 percent over the last year. That is high by recent standards, but probably a bit below the inflation rate in that span. (October inflation numbers are not out yet, but for the 12 months ended in September the Consumer Price Index was up 5.4 percent.)
The wage story looks better for rank-and-file American workers. Average hourly earnings for production and nonsupervisory employees have risen 5.8 percent over the last year, which is likely to be higher than inflation was over that span. That is the steepest one-year gain since 1982, other than a couple of months early in the pandemic that featured unusual statistical aberrations.

The Jobs Numbers Take the ‘Stag’ Out of the Stagflation Scare
https://nyti.ms/3q9csBf
The only thing missing is the approximate 4 million jobs that have not yet recovered but in six months they will be back and high enough money to balance the temporary inflation rates.
But Aaron Rogers is an adult who has had a bit more success in life than you have. The fact that you believe that he is not entitled to his own opinion on his own health is why you come across the way you do.
Personally I am not threatened by those who have opinions different than mine. I am vaccinated and that is my decision. If Aaron Rogers does not want to get vaccinated that is his decision and it does not affect me in the slightest.

If all you have to contribute around here is an endless stream of plagiarized leftist opinions that you barely understand but are quick to agree with, you probably ought to just stop, and ask an orderly to wheel you down to the beach.
All you accomplish here is the consumption of electrons with no point, no logic, no intelligence, and no clue.
Rodgers is a big boy. He chose to blow off the vaccine. Period, full stop.
Personally I've never liked the guy, have always considered him a bit of an asshole, but that's neither here nor there. I'm 3 shots into the vax regimen including a booster a couple weeks ago and feel I have little to fear from anyone vaxxed or unvaxxed.
Freedom and liberty remain paramount to me. Get the shot or not. That's a personal decision that is no business of mine.
And no, you don't have a right to be "safe" from covid if that includes infringing upon my freedom and liberty.
Crawl under your fucking bed and stay there until your last breath.
Sympathy, constructed from the Greek sym, meaning "together," and pathos, referring to feelings or emotion, is used when one person shares the feelings of another, as when one experiences sadness when someone close is experiencing grief or loss. Empathy is a newer word also related to "pathos." It differs from sympathy in carrying an implication of greater emotional distance. With empathy, you can imagine or understand how someone might feel, without necessarily having those feelings yourself.
So when I say I don't take issue with someone's healthcare decision because in spite of being vaccinated myself, I can understand why they choose to bypass it.... that is showing a form of empathy.
When you demand that anyone who disagrees with you has been gaslighted... then that is a complete and absolute inability to see things from anyone else's viewpoint. Meaning that you have zero empathy.
If you had empathy, you would listen to what Aaron Rogers actually stated, why he has made his decision, and then accepted that this is a reasonable decision for him to make given his own personal believes.
The fact you attack him shows a lack of both empathy and sympathy.
But Aaron Rogers is an adult who has had a bit more success in life than you have.
And you would think he would be smarter than lie like trump about taking the shot.....What is your claim to fame Lil Schitty.....a failed marriage....cleaning toilets and marrying a child????????? BWAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! He who lives in glass house.......asshole!!!
Please tell me you're not boasting about wages going up without including tbe raye of inflation in your analysis. What good is a 4% wage increase when inflation is rising 6%?
That's like when do was youbg6. My paycheck would go up $20/month yearly but my rent went up 30/mo. That's not getting ahead.
WOW, Lil schitty now an expert in etymology another hidden talent of Mr Know it All!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! You really should stop sucking the gas out of trumps fat ass......I know its plentiful......but you haven't learned shit!!!!! LOLOLOLOLO<

Bidenomics "100,450,000: More Than 100 Million Not in Labor Force for 14th Straight Month; No Job, Not Looking
By Susan Jones | November 5, 2021 | 7:19am EDT
(CNSNews.com) - The Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics announced on Friday that 100,450,000 people in this country were not in the labor force in October, up 38,000 from the 100,412,000 in September.
This is the 14th straight month that this "not in the labor force" number has remained above 100,000,000."
When someone refuses to get vaccinated despite overwhelming evidence that by doing so they endanger great portions of our society, including the elderly and the young, that does not bother Ch.
Seems he has "empathy" only for the rugged individual, not for all others. Typical.

THE ASSOCIATED PRESS: Pelosi Confirms Vote on Infrastructure Bill 3:19 pm EDT
Speaker Nancy Pelosi postponed plans to push a massive budget reconciliation bill through House, but will hold a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure package.
BUT Jayapal Rejects Pelosi’s Plan to Vote on Infrastructure 3:31 pm EDT
Just minutes after Speaker Nancy Pelosi called for a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill later tonight, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) rejected the plan on behalf of House progressives, Politico reports.
Said Jayapal: “If our six colleagues still want to wait for a CBO score, we would agree to give them that time — after which point we can vote on both bills together.” _____
Modern biblical scholarship has shown that the historical Jesus was mistaken in his echatological, Christological, and soteriological expectations. So was there anything that he was right about? _____
If the flesh and blood man Jesus of Nazareth were with us here today, and had time to study all that has happened in the world since his death, I think he would want to admit to us that he was mistaken about three important expectations, and would encourage us to join him in admitting that he was mistaken about them.
First, eschatology, the belief in the ultimate outcome of all things.
Like many Jews of his time, Jesus was convinced that within the lifetime of his own generation there would be a great apocalyptic destruction of all the wicked empires of the world, to be followed by God’s establishment of a new and wonderful eternal kingdom throughout all the earth.
Surely if Jesus were to come among us today, he would be willing to admit to everyone his disappointment that two thousand years later, his Kingdom of God expectations still remain unfulfilled.
Second, Christology, the belief in Jesus’ Messiahship.
Many excellent historical Jesus scholars are convinced (as I am) that Jesus himself (and not just the later church) firmly believed that he was the Christos, the Messhiach, Spirit-anointed, much loved messianic Son of God destined to rule the world in glory.
On this point, however, I have to agree with our Jewish sisters and brothers when they ask Christians, “If Jesus was the Messiah, why is the world in such a mess? The Messiah was supposed to bring the glories of the messianic age – and we certainly are not living in the messianic age!”
I think Jesus would have to agree with that, and would be willing to admit to everyone that it raises valid questions about his own powerful conviction that he was, in some absolutist sense, the Messiah.
New Virginia governor's son tried to vote this week -- despite not being of legal age: elections officials
Brad Reed
November 05, 2021
The 17-year-old son of Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin tried to cast a ballot this week despite not being of legal age.
The Washington Post reports that Fairfax County officials said Friday that the 17-year-old tried to vote twice this week in an election that saw his father defeat Democratic rival Terry McAuliffe by two percentage points.
"The statement, which identified the teen as Youngkin's 17-year-old son, emphasized that he did not end up voting and stated that he did not violate any state election laws," writes the Post.
Jennifer Chanty, a precinct captain who was serving in the district, tells the Post that the young Youngkin walked into the Great Falls Library on Tuesday afternoon, presented his drivers license, and asked for a ballot.
Chanty turned him down and offered to register him to vote in the next election.
He walked out and returned later and again asked for a ballot, while claiming that a 17-year-old friend of his had been allowed to vote despite not being of age.
"I told him, 'I don't know what occurred with your friend, but you are not registered to vote today. You're welcome to register, but you will not be voting today,'" Chanty tells the Post.
When someone refuses to get vaccinated despite overwhelming evidence that by doing so they endanger great portions of our society, including the elderly and the young, that does not bother Ch.
Well the opinion that the unvaccinated pose a harm to our society is simply an opinion. One you are certainly allowed to partake in. But to be perfectly clear, it is just an opinion. It certainly is not a fact. Other opinions are certainly also allowed.
The allowance of other opinions is what allows for empathy or sympathy. Literally impossible to have either when you demand that all of your opinions are 100% correct and everyone who disagrees with you is either being gaslighted or a racist.
But let me give you a completely fact based logical opinion on the Aaron Rogers situation
1) Technically only someone who has Covid can pass the virus. 2) Either vaccinated or not vaccinated. You catch Covid you can pass it. 3) A vaccinated person who doesn't test themselves once a week can catch Covid, not know it, and then pass it to someone else. 4) An unvaccinated person who (like Rogers) is testing every week (or more) will know immediately that he/she has Covid and can isolate themselves.
Therefore... it is logical that an unvaccinated person who is consistently testing for Covid is less harmful to society than a vaccinated person who is not testing consistently. This is pure logic and common sense.
At least in my opinion. You can choose to ignore it.
Third, soteriology, the belief in how salvation comes about.
Unlike numerous contemporary historical Jesus scholars, I am convinced that Jesus himself did believe that he was going to be put to death, and that his death was willed by God to bring about a wonderful purpose, the salvation of “many.”
According to the earliest gospel, Mark, Jesus repeatedly stated that he would have to go to Jerusalem to accomplish God’s will by being put to death there, and on one occasion he indicated why he believed his death would be necessary, as follows:
His disciples had begun arguing with one another about which of them was going to be the greatest in God’s soon-to-be established glorious Kingdom. Jesus called them together and reprimanded them, telling them that they should not be thinking like that because, he said, even he had come “not to be served, but to serve” and to give his life “as a ransom for many.” And, he told them, they should emulate toward others that servant attitude.
Repeatedly in Mark, Jesus stated that what was about to happen to him was in accordance with God’s will as revealed in the holy scriptures of his people. And yet, no one before Jesus had ever suggested that the triumphant, victorious Messiah was ever going to have to die some sort of ransoming, redemptive, or sacrificial death.
So where did Jesus get such an idea? Where in all the scriptures could he have found any kind of indication that the victorious, ruling, conquering, kingly Messiah would ever have to die redemptively?
The only place in all the Hebrew scriptures that describes a significant person dying in order to bring forgiveness for the sins of others is the servant-figure passage in Isaiah chapter fifty-three. Could that have been the source of Jesus’ conviction?
I am convinced it was.
At this point, however, many modern scholars will point out to us that Isaiah 52:13-53:12, when it was written during the Babylonian exile, was not intended to predict the fate of any future messianic figure. And that, if true, would mean that Jesus’ understanding of the passage was erroneous, at least as to its original meaning.
If Jesus were here among us today, I think he would advise us to consider what those scholars say, for he would understand the validity of their position. And yet, I think he still might want us, even within the new-won honesties that all such scholarship brings – I think he still might want us to ask ourselves: “Which, if any, among all his teachings – including perhaps even his teaching about the necessity of his death – which, if any, among his teachings still remain somehow relevant for us today? Or should?” __________ Boswell is a retired pastor who is scrupulously dedicated to being honest and truthful about contemporary biblical scholarship regarding the historical Jesus.

BTW....RODGERS BLAMED WORRIED ABOUT INFERTILITY FOR HIS REASON NOT TO VAX.....YOUR OPINION NOT ONLY BEING STUPID, BUT COMPLETLY BULLSHIT LIKE EVERYTHING YOU NOW POST!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAA
Well the opinion that the unvaccinated pose a harm to our society is simply an opinion. One you are certainly allowed to partake in. But to be perfectly clear, it is just an opinion. It certainly is not a fact. Other opinions are certainly also allowed. ___________
Sorry, Ch, but it will go down in history as a fact that MULTIPLE deaths and hopitalizations could have been avoided if only more people had simply been vaccinated, and not listened to the blather of Trump and the reactionary lie that a desire for government CONTROL was the reason for encouraging people to get vaccinated.
"Host Tom Keene said, “In Sturgis, Michigan, it is $2.89 a gallon. I guess that’s better than in California. What is the Granholm plan to increase oil production in America?"
Our present economic difficulties are being felt all over the world, not just in America, because of the pandemic.
But America is especially hard hit because of the inept response of the fomer president to the outbreak of Covid-19.
Long ago Trump saw that he had really messed up with regard to the virus, and so--- ______

Pelosi Says Vote Will Happen on Infrastructure Bill 4:45 pm EDT

The thing about wood heat is , it takes work, tools, skill and a self-reliant streak to get it done. My wife loves to run the house up to 75 °F on really cold days and high winds. I love wood heat , have for 30 years. Same wood furnace that we bought when we built our home.
Sorry, Ch, but it will go down in history as a fact that MULTIPLE deaths and hopitalizations could have been avoided if only more people had simply been vaccinated, and not listened to the blather of Trump and the reactionary lie that a desire for government CONTROL was the reason for encouraging people to get vaccine
Well since liberals write their own history these days... no doubt someone will write this as history.
But others might write a more factual history that ties to the more factual concept that Trump championed the vaccine, pushed and assisted US companies in coming up with the vaccine in record time, and got the vaccination ball rolling before he left office.
And a factual account will show that in the same time in 2021 when 50%, 55%, or even 60% of Americans are vaccinated that we had more cases and more deaths than in 2020 when nobody was vaccinated.
History might even judge the idea that while 80% of the world was successfully treating Covid when people caught it, the United States fought (for whatever reasons that history will not be able to explain) tooth and nail against any treatments what-so-ever. They may even cite President Biden limiting the amount of antibody treatments red state were allowed to purchase from the Federal Government.
But hey... that would just be a factual account of history.
Nothing compared to the history where we pretend something else.
Pelosi Says Vote Will Happen on Infrastructure Bill
You have to wonder what that would mean for the BBB bill. Progressives will have zero bargaining power on that. Joe Manchin will set the price and he might set it at zero!
The investigation into the January 6th Insurrection just seen the tip of Insurrection and slow motion coup by Trump.
How (and why) the Jan. 6 committee is making 'real progress'
On the surface, the Jan. 6 committee is fighting with Team Trump for cooperation. Below the surface, the investigation is making surprising strides.
Nov. 5, 2021, 6:24 AM PDT
By Steve Benen the producer of the Rachel Maddow show. One of many gay people we see every single day on commercials. That never happened in history.
In light of the coverage surrounding the Jan. 6 committee and its fight to hear from Donald Trump's allies, it may be tempting to think the bipartisan select committee has been stymied in its work.
As NBC News reported, there's fresh evidence to the contrary.
Members of the House panel investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol have interviewed more than 150 people so far, ranking member Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., said Thursday. Cheney, the top Republican on the select committee, said that the panel spoke to "a whole range of people connected to the events, connected to understanding what happens."
The select committee's co-chair added, "It is a range of engagements — some formal interviews, some depositions.... There really is a huge amount of work underway that is leading to real progress for us."
It led Politico to note, "The public has just seen the tip of the iceberg.... [Cheney's reference to more than 150 interviews] is an indication that the vast majority of the committee's work is happening out of public view."
This isn't like the Benghazi investigation.
It's more like the 9/11 invasion
We will prevail and the former might be Al Capone.

PUNCHBOWL NEWS SAYS: Democrats In Stand Off on Infrastructure at 6:06 pm EDT
“This is a huge roll of the dice by Pelosi if she actually goes ahead with this vote. There’s a chance she may lose. She’s been forced to stand down on an infrastructure vote twice already due to progressive opposition. This time, she’s counting on President Joe Biden’s direct intervention to help bring progressives around.
“But Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, reportedly told Biden that she would continue to oppose the bipartisan infrastructure bill unless it’s paired up with a vote on BBB… This is a position progressives have taken for months.
“We have been told that there are more than a dozen progressives ready to vote against the infrastructure bill… There are more, but these seem to be the firmest no’s, as far as we can tell.”

Nikki Haley was trying to ‘undermine Trump’ when she called for 'cognitive tests': political analyst
When former UN ambassador Nikki Haley said this week that a "cognitive test" should be required for older politicians, most people interpreted it as an attack on President Joe Biden.
However, MSNBC political analyst Nick Confessore says Haley — rumored as a 2024 GOP presidential candidate — may also have been attempting to undermine her former boss, Donald Trump.
Confessore, a New York Times reporter, noted that Haley has been "trying to figure out how to run for president against Donald Trump without seeming to run for president against Donald Trump."
"I actually saw this comment — you know, it's being taken as an attack directly on Biden, and perhaps it is — but I see it in a way as a subtle undermining of Donald Trump," Confessore said, noting that Haley compared a cognitive test requirement to the expectation that candidates release their tax returns.
"She mentioned taxes, she mentioned an IQ test basically — a senility test — and her message overall was really, 'It's time for the next generation to take over, it's time to pass the torch,'" he added. "So I see her as sort of trying to undermine Trump and Biden at the same time."
She should be defeated in the next election. “But Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, reportedly told Biden that she would continue to oppose the bipartisan infrastructure bill unless it’s paired up with a vote on BBB… This is a position progressives have taken for months.”
Critical Race Theory was a dog whistle. In fact, some progressives have argued that CRT stands for Creating Racial Tension. I agree. But cynical, divisive racial appeals find more fertile soil when Democrats can't deliver. The middle-class American Dream is why God created the Democratic Party.
If they don't get their shit together they will lose everything in history from TDR to Biden.
But a similar delay threatened House Democrats yet again on Friday, first, because of the recent demands issued by centrists, who have said they want to see an official analysis of the bill by the Congressional Budget Office to determine its total cost and whether it would add to U.S. deficits. “We’re waiting for the CBO score,” said Rep. Jared Golden (D-Maine). Asked if there would be a vote today, he replied: “I don’t know,” and signaled he would not supply his support without the budgetary document. Pelosi and her Democratic leaders had worked late Thursday to assuage moderates and address a wide-array of unresolved policy issues in the bill, including outstanding fights over immigration and tax policy. The president also engaged the process, calling Democrats directly, in his latest burst of outreach to try to shepherd the two measures across the finish line in the chamber. And House leaders further presented reams of new data illustrating the bill would not add to the deficit. By Friday night, the impasse remained unresolved. Moderates were unconvinced. About a half dozen, at one point, signaled they would not support the measure, known as the Build Back Better Act, without that score. Pelosi then tried a different tactic, hoping to approve infrastructure, send it to the president’s desk and at least start debate on the rest of his spending agenda — with a final vote perhaps likely to happen once they had a fiscal analysis in hand. But that idea quickly encountered steep opposition as it infuriated some left-leaning lawmakers.
Showdown: Pelosi dares liberals to sink infrastructure bill BY MIKE LILLIS - 11/05/21 05:49 PM EDT
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Friday escalated the tense standoff over President Biden's domestic agenda, daring liberals in her own caucus to oppose a bipartisan infrastructure bill that's languished in the House for months while negotiators haggled over a larger social spending package.
Progressives, behind Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), have blocked the infrastructure proposal for fear that Senate centrists — Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) — would reject the bigger "family" benefits bill if the more popular public works bill had already reached Biden's desk.
In response, Pelosi has kept the infrastructure bill off the floor, even despite urging the liberals to reconsider their objections for the sake of giving the unpopular Biden a big legislative win.
That is, until now.
On Friday, after hours of negotiations in which Pelosi failed to convince a handful of moderates to back the social benefits package, the Speaker abruptly announced that the infrastructure bill would come to the floor for a vote along with the rule governing the larger benefits package — but not that package itself.
The move was immediately hammered by liberals, and Jayapal quickly issued a statement demanding that the two bills move in tandem and suggesting she had enough lawmakers behind her to sink it.
"As we’ve consistently said, there are dozens of our members who want to vote both bills — the Build Back Better Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act — out of the House together," Jayapal said.
Pelosi didn't blink. Shortly afterwards, the Speaker staged a press conference, alongside her top lieutenants — Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) and James Clyburn (D-S.C.) — to say she's sticking with the plan to bring the infrastructure proposal to the floor, while suggesting she's already secured the support to pass it.
"I do believe there are a large number of members of the progressive caucus who will vote for the bill," Pelosi said. "I have Speaker's secret whip count."
The comments amount to the launch of a high-stakes game of chicken: Pelosi says she has the liberal votes to pass the infrastructure bill without the larger package; Jayapal says she has the liberal votes to block it.
The bill is scheduled to hit the floor Friday evening. And in a sign of how much is on the line, Biden called Jayapal Friday evening to make his case for Pelosi's plan.
Some liberals are already saying they're ready to back that plan, even if it's not their preferred strategy.
"If that's the way it ends up, what am I going to do?" said Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.), a former head of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. "The risk of doing nothing, to me, is more profound than the sequence."
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), another prominent progressive and close ally of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who has urged against a stand-alone infrastructure vote, also suggested an openness to vote for infrastructure.
"I'm open to giving the leadership a hearing," he said.
Pelosi's surprising move marks a sharp departure for a Speaker who's built a reputation around securing support before staging votes on the floor. She has said repeatedly throughout the debate over Biden's agenda that she won't consider any bills that can't pass.
"I've never seen her bring something to the floor and dare people to oppose it. Have you?" asked one surprised Democratic aide.
Moderates who have been pressing for months for the stand-alone infrastructure bill are cheering Pelosi's decision to stage the vote on Friday — even if it fails.
"Let's let 'em vote no; let's see it," said Rep. Filemon Vela (D-Texas). "If they want to vote 'no' against $1.2 billion in their own congressional district, well let 'em go do it."
Democrats who want the Republican Party to pay for the events of Jan. 6 — to suffer at the ballot box for their allegiance to Donald Trump — have to tie those events to a language and a narrative that speaks to the fear, anger and anxiety of the public at large. They have to tell a story. And not just once or twice — they have to do it constantly. It must become a fixture of the party’s rhetorical landscape.
And yet, while emotional appeals can move voters, they cannot work miracles. Even the strongest message can’t turn lead into gold. And there’s no rhetoric that can make up for poor performance on the job. A bloody shirt won’t save a party that can’t govern.
WASHINGTON — Facing resistance by a group of moderates in their ranks, Democratic leaders put their $1.85 trillion social policy, climate and tax package on hold on Friday, instead pushing to pass a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package whose fate was uncertain amid progressive opposition.
The retreat came after centrist Democrats balked at supporting the social policy plan without a formal estimate of its cost and economic effects. Hoping to convey movement toward approving it, House leaders said they would hold a procedural vote that would allow consideration of the measure in the future, with hopes of passing it by Thanksgiving.
But the delay and uncertainty were a setback for President Biden and Democratic congressional leaders, who had hoped to pass both measures on Friday and instead risked ending the day empty-handed, as intraparty feuding between moderates and progressives imperiled their agenda.
An off-year electoral drubbing this week further raised the stakes for anxious Democrats eager to prove that their party could deliver while in control of both chambers of Congress and the White House.
George W Bush adviser Karl Rove: “There are suspicious partisans across the spectrum who believe widespread election fraud is possible. Some hanky-panky always goes on, and there are already reports of poll watchers in Philadelphia not being allowed to do their jobs. But stealing hundreds of thousands of votes would require a conspiracy on the scale of a James Bond movie. That isn’t going to happen.”
“Did I hear a laugh over there? Did I hear a laugh from those who added $2 trillion in tax cuts for the richest people in America?” — Speaker Nancy Pelosi to Republicans, in response to snickers over her suggestion the budget reconciliation bill will cut the debt.
“The whole day was a clusterfuck, right? But beyond that, you know… I thought everyone was working in a very congenial way. I mean, rank-and-file members figured out how to get shit done. — Rep. Mark Pocan (D-WI), quoted by The Hill, after a fruitful closed-door meeting between Democratic progressives and moderates.
Multiple sources tell CNN that progressives and moderate Democrats are getting closer to a deal to have a vote tonight on infrastructure in exchange for more concrete commitments from moderates on the Build Back Better bill, which would be voted on at a later time.
Not everyone in the progressive caucus is on board but they are moving closer to an agreement.
A GOP House member tells The Hill that between 10 and 15 House Republicans are expected to vote for the infrastructure bill.
WASHINGTON—The House passed a roughly $1 trillion public works bill, sending to President Biden’s desk a generational investment in roads, bridges and rail that had languished for several months as Democrats feuded over the terms of its approval.

Republicans Push Limits on Gerrymandering Again
Jonathan Last:
“I keep banging on about how anti-democratic redistricting has become, where institutional leverage is used to magnify small majorities (or even small minorities) into distortions so that political power is not meaningfully related to electoral support.
“Both parties do this. But not in equal measure. And this week, Republicans at the state-level started showing just how far they were willing to go to exert their institutional leverage…
“Moving towards winner-take-nearly-all defeats the purpose of the House of Representatives. It creates a disconnect between electoral and political power. And it encourages extremism by making party primaries more important than general elections.”

“Familiar takeaways like ‘wake-up call’ and ‘warning shot’ don’t do justice here because the danger of ignoring those trends is too great. What would do justice, and what is badly needed, is an honest conversation in the Democratic Party about how to return to the moderate policies and values that fueled the blue-wave victories in 2018 and won Joe Biden the presidency in 2020.”

- Nobody other than investors has ever cared about the DJIA
- Unemployment is not at issue because anyone who wants a job has been able to find one for months. This number now only really reflects how many people choose to work.
- Inflation is still digging into people's disposable income. You pay $4.00/gallon to drive to work and places, pay more for milk, butter, bread, meat, etc and you have less money left over from your paycheck. That has a tangible effect.
- We are experiencing empty shelves at grocery stores because of supply chain issues at a national level. People are worried that they will not be able to find X-mas gifts even.

Aaron Rodgers confirms he is unvaccinated, says he is 'disappointed' by media
by Jacob Lev, CNN
Updated Nov 5, 2021
(CNN) - Green Bay Packers star quarterback Aaron Rodgers confirmed he is unvaccinated against Covid-19 and is disappointed with the treatment he's been receiving in the media while appearing on The Pat McAfee Show on Friday.
"I realize I'm in the crosshairs of the woke mob right now," Rodgers said. "So, before my final nail gets put in my cancel culture casket, I think I would like to set the record straight on so many of the blatant lies that are out there about myself."
Rodgers said the media was on a "witch hunt" to find out which players were vaccinated and blamed reporters for him saying he was "immunized" back in August.
The 37-year-old Rodgers said if any reporter would have asked a follow-up question, he would have explained he's "not an anti-vax flat earther," but that he's a "critical thinker."
Rodgers added he has been following the strict NFL protocols for unvaccinated players to a "T." Rodgers described the daily testing he is subjected to every day, even on off days, and believes the rules are in place to shame unvaccinated people. Rodgers says he has been tested over 300 times before testing positive this week.
Rodgers said he experienced some mild symptoms for roughly 48 hours but currently "feels really good" He wasn't certain when he would return to the field or what protocols were in place for him now that he tested positive for Covid-19.
Rodgers said, "The vaccines do offer some protection for sure but there is a lot we don't know about them. ... There is a lot to natural immunity. ... If you have gotten Covid and recovered from it, that's the best boost to immunity you can have."
In August, Rodgers was asked whether he had received the Covid-19 vaccine. Rodgers said he had been "immunized."
"There's a lot of conversation around it, around the league, and a lot of guys who have made statements and not made statements," Rodgers said. "Owners have made statements. There's guys on the team that haven't been vaccinated. I think it's personal decision. I'm not going to judge those guys. There's guys that have been vaccinated and contracted Covid. So it's an interesting issue."
The real headline is that Bidenomics is the best in history.
Bidennomics is the most successful in history.
In the late 70s we experienced stagflation, and the Reagan administration introduced top down economics. And the former President who inherited the longest economic recovery in history.
This recovery is the exact opposite solution. Bottom Up Economics
In the last expansion, the United States achieved 4.8 percent unemployment in January 2016 — but didn’t reach 4.6 percent until more than a year later, in February 2017.
Indeed, there are lots of signs that this is a hyper-speed recovery compared to the last one. The share of the 25- to 54-year-old workers who are employed jumped 0.3 percentage points in October.
In the last year that share has risen from 76 percent to 78.3 percent. That same shift took about four and a half years in the last expansion, from September 2012 to February 2017.
Put simply, for all the discussion of labor shortages, and the fact that the share of adults who are part of the labor force has remained well below prepandemic levels, employers keep managing to find people to take jobs. The latest numbers undermine any narrative that the pandemic has caused large masses of people to leave the work force permanently, whether because of government stimulus benefits or personal factors.
Employers are paying more to get those workers, it’s worth noting. Average hourly earnings for private-sector workers were up 0.4 percent in October and are up 4.9 percent over the last year. That is high by recent standards, but probably a bit below the inflation rate in that span. (October inflation numbers are not out yet, but for the 12 months ended in September the Consumer Price Index was up 5.4 percent.)
The wage story looks better for rank-and-file American workers. Average hourly earnings for production and nonsupervisory employees have risen 5.8 percent over the last year, which is likely to be higher than inflation was over that span. That is the steepest one-year gain since 1982, other than a couple of months early in the pandemic that featured unusual statistical aberrations.

The only thing missing is the approximate 4 million jobs that have not yet recovered but in six months they will be back and high enough money to balance the temporary inflation rates.
Sorry Roger...
But Aaron Rogers is an adult who has had a bit more success in life than you have. The fact that you believe that he is not entitled to his own opinion on his own health is why you come across the way you do.
Personally I am not threatened by those who have opinions different than mine. I am vaccinated and that is my decision. If Aaron Rogers does not want to get vaccinated that is his decision and it does not affect me in the slightest.

Alky,

All you accomplish here is the consumption of electrons with no point, no logic, no intelligence, and no clue.
Rodgers is a big boy. He chose to blow off the vaccine. Period, full stop.
Personally I've never liked the guy, have always considered him a bit of an asshole, but that's neither here nor there. I'm 3 shots into the vax regimen including a booster a couple weeks ago and feel I have little to fear from anyone vaxxed or unvaxxed.
Freedom and liberty remain paramount to me. Get the shot or not. That's a personal decision that is no business of mine.
And no, you don't have a right to be "safe" from covid if that includes infringing upon my freedom and liberty.
Crawl under your fucking bed and stay there until your last breath.
Idiot.
Empathy is impossible for you Scott.
Sympathy, constructed from the Greek sym, meaning "together," and pathos, referring to feelings or emotion, is used when one person shares the feelings of another, as when one experiences sadness when someone close is experiencing grief or loss. Empathy is a newer word also related to "pathos." It differs from sympathy in carrying an implication of greater emotional distance. With empathy, you can imagine or understand how someone might feel, without necessarily having those feelings yourself.
So when I say I don't take issue with someone's healthcare decision because in spite of being vaccinated myself, I can understand why they choose to bypass it.... that is showing a form of empathy.
When you demand that anyone who disagrees with you has been gaslighted... then that is a complete and absolute inability to see things from anyone else's viewpoint. Meaning that you have zero empathy.
If you had empathy, you would listen to what Aaron Rogers actually stated, why he has made his decision, and then accepted that this is a reasonable decision for him to make given his own personal believes.
The fact you attack him shows a lack of both empathy and sympathy.
But Aaron Rogers is an adult who has had a bit more success in life than you have.
And you would think he would be smarter than lie like trump about taking the shot.....What is your claim to fame Lil Schitty.....a failed marriage....cleaning toilets and marrying a child????????? BWAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! He who lives in glass house.......asshole!!!

That's like when do was youbg6. My paycheck would go up $20/month yearly but my rent went up 30/mo. That's not getting ahead.
WOW, Lil schitty now an expert in etymology another hidden talent of Mr Know it All!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!!!! You really should stop sucking the gas out of trumps fat ass......I know its plentiful......but you haven't learned shit!!!!! LOLOLOLOLO<

"100,450,000: More Than 100 Million Not in Labor Force for 14th Straight Month; No Job, Not Looking
By Susan Jones | November 5, 2021 | 7:19am EDT
(CNSNews.com) - The Labor Department's Bureau of Labor Statistics announced on Friday that 100,450,000 people in this country were not in the labor force in October, up 38,000 from the 100,412,000 in September.
This is the 14th straight month that this "not in the labor force" number has remained above 100,000,000."
When someone refuses to get vaccinated despite overwhelming evidence that by doing so they endanger great portions of our society, including the elderly and the young, that does not bother Ch.

Pelosi Confirms Vote on Infrastructure Bill

Speaker Nancy Pelosi postponed plans to push a massive budget reconciliation bill through House, but will hold a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure package.
BUT
Jayapal Rejects Pelosi’s Plan to Vote on Infrastructure
3:31 pm EDT
Just minutes after Speaker Nancy Pelosi called for a vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill later tonight, Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) rejected the plan on behalf of House progressives, Politico reports.
Said Jayapal:
“If our six colleagues still want to wait for a CBO score, we would agree to give them that time — after which point we can vote on both bills together.”

The Mistaken Expectations of Jesus
Modern biblical scholarship has shown that the historical Jesus was mistaken in his echatological, Christological, and soteriological expectations. So was there anything that he was right about?
_____
If the flesh and blood man Jesus of Nazareth were with us here today, and had time to study all that has happened in the world since his death, I think he would want to admit to us that he was mistaken about three important expectations, and would encourage us to join him in admitting that he was mistaken about them.
First, eschatology, the belief in the ultimate outcome of all things.
Like many Jews of his time, Jesus was convinced that within the lifetime of his own generation there would be a great apocalyptic destruction of all the wicked empires of the world, to be followed by God’s establishment of a new and wonderful eternal kingdom throughout all the earth.
Surely if Jesus were to come among us today, he would be willing to admit to everyone his disappointment that two thousand years later, his Kingdom of God expectations still remain unfulfilled.
Second, Christology, the belief in Jesus’ Messiahship.
Many excellent historical Jesus scholars are convinced (as I am) that Jesus himself (and not just the later church) firmly believed that he was the Christos, the Messhiach, Spirit-anointed, much loved messianic Son of God destined to rule the world in glory.
On this point, however, I have to agree with our Jewish sisters and brothers when they ask Christians, “If Jesus was the Messiah, why is the world in such a mess? The Messiah was supposed to bring the glories of the messianic age – and we certainly are not living in the messianic age!”
I think Jesus would have to agree with that, and would be willing to admit to everyone that it raises valid questions about his own powerful conviction that he was, in some absolutist sense, the Messiah.

New Virginia governor's son tried to vote this week -- despite not being of legal age: elections officials
Brad Reed
November 05, 2021
The 17-year-old son of Virginia Governor-elect Glenn Youngkin tried to cast a ballot this week despite not being of legal age.
The Washington Post reports that Fairfax County officials said Friday that the 17-year-old tried to vote twice this week in an election that saw his father defeat Democratic rival Terry McAuliffe by two percentage points.
"The statement, which identified the teen as Youngkin's 17-year-old son, emphasized that he did not end up voting and stated that he did not violate any state election laws," writes the Post.
Jennifer Chanty, a precinct captain who was serving in the district, tells the Post that the young Youngkin walked into the Great Falls Library on Tuesday afternoon, presented his drivers license, and asked for a ballot.
Chanty turned him down and offered to register him to vote in the next election.
He walked out and returned later and again asked for a ballot, while claiming that a 17-year-old friend of his had been allowed to vote despite not being of age.
"I told him, 'I don't know what occurred with your friend, but you are not registered to vote today. You're welcome to register, but you will not be voting today,'" Chanty tells the Post.
When someone refuses to get vaccinated despite overwhelming evidence that by doing so they endanger great portions of our society, including the elderly and the young, that does not bother Ch.
Well the opinion that the unvaccinated pose a harm to our society is simply an opinion. One you are certainly allowed to partake in. But to be perfectly clear, it is just an opinion. It certainly is not a fact. Other opinions are certainly also allowed.
The allowance of other opinions is what allows for empathy or sympathy. Literally impossible to have either when you demand that all of your opinions are 100% correct and everyone who disagrees with you is either being gaslighted or a racist.
But let me give you a completely fact based logical opinion on the Aaron Rogers situation
1) Technically only someone who has Covid can pass the virus.
2) Either vaccinated or not vaccinated. You catch Covid you can pass it.
3) A vaccinated person who doesn't test themselves once a week can catch Covid, not know it, and then pass it to someone else.
4) An unvaccinated person who (like Rogers) is testing every week (or more) will know immediately that he/she has Covid and can isolate themselves.
Therefore... it is logical that an unvaccinated person who is consistently testing for Covid is less harmful to society than a vaccinated person who is not testing consistently. This is pure logic and common sense.
At least in my opinion. You can choose to ignore it.
Third, soteriology, the belief in how salvation comes about.
Unlike numerous contemporary historical Jesus scholars, I am convinced that Jesus himself did believe that he was going to be put to death, and that his death was willed by God to bring about a wonderful purpose, the salvation of “many.”
According to the earliest gospel, Mark, Jesus repeatedly stated that he would have to go to Jerusalem to accomplish God’s will by being put to death there, and on one occasion he indicated why he believed his death would be necessary, as follows:
His disciples had begun arguing with one another about which of them was going to be the greatest in God’s soon-to-be established glorious Kingdom. Jesus called them together and reprimanded them, telling them that they should not be thinking like that because, he said, even he had come “not to be served, but to serve” and to give his life “as a ransom for many.” And, he told them, they should emulate toward others that servant attitude.
Repeatedly in Mark, Jesus stated that what was about to happen to him was in accordance with God’s will as revealed in the holy scriptures of his people. And yet, no one before Jesus had ever suggested that the triumphant, victorious Messiah was ever going to have to die some sort of ransoming, redemptive, or sacrificial death.
So where did Jesus get such an idea? Where in all the scriptures could he have found any kind of indication that the victorious, ruling, conquering, kingly Messiah would ever have to die redemptively?
The only place in all the Hebrew scriptures that describes a significant person dying in order to bring forgiveness for the sins of others is the servant-figure passage in Isaiah chapter fifty-three. Could that have been the source of Jesus’ conviction?
I am convinced it was.
At this point, however, many modern scholars will point out to us that Isaiah 52:13-53:12, when it was written during the Babylonian exile, was not intended to predict the fate of any future messianic figure. And that, if true, would mean that Jesus’ understanding of the passage was erroneous, at least as to its original meaning.
If Jesus were here among us today, I think he would advise us to consider what those scholars say, for he would understand the validity of their position. And yet, I think he still might want us, even within the new-won honesties that all such scholarship brings – I think he still might want us to ask ourselves: “Which, if any, among all his teachings – including perhaps even his teaching about the necessity of his death – which, if any, among his teachings still remain somehow relevant for us today? Or should?”

He put other people at risk.
BTW....RODGERS BLAMED WORRIED ABOUT INFERTILITY FOR HIS REASON NOT TO VAX.....YOUR OPINION NOT ONLY BEING STUPID, BUT COMPLETLY BULLSHIT LIKE EVERYTHING YOU NOW POST!!!!! BWAAAAAAAAAAA
With Aaron Rogers - he was literally testing himself every day. Symptoms or not.
When is the last time Roger, Denny, or the Reverend tested themselves out of concern for the people around them or for the greater good of society?
Keep putting those dead babies on your books James.

Well the opinion that the unvaccinated pose a harm to our society is simply an opinion. One you are certainly allowed to partake in. But to be perfectly clear, it is just an opinion. It certainly is not a fact. Other opinions are certainly also allowed.

Sorry, Ch, but it will go down in history as a fact that MULTIPLE deaths and hopitalizations could have been avoided if only more people had simply been vaccinated, and not listened to the blather of Trump and the reactionary lie that a desire for government CONTROL was the reason for encouraging people to get vaccinated.

Our present economic difficulties are being felt all over the world, not just in America, because of the pandemic.
But America is especially hard hit because of the inept response of the fomer president to the outbreak of Covid-19.

Pelosi Says Vote Will Happen on Infrastructure Bill

Speaker Nancy Pelosi told reporters that she has a “Speaker’s secret whip count” and that she believes a “large number” of progressives will fold and ultimately vote on the bipartisan infrastructure bill tonight.
Said Pelosi:
“I have a pretty good feel.”
Pelosi is likely counting on a number of Republican votes to make up for any defections.
WE WILL BELIEVE IT WHEN WE SEE IT.
I support Democrats first.

The thing about wood heat is , it takes work, tools, skill and a self-reliant streak to get it done.
My wife loves to run the house up to 75 °F on really cold days and high winds.
I love wood heat , have for 30 years. Same wood furnace that we bought when we built our home.
Sorry, Ch, but it will go down in history as a fact that MULTIPLE deaths and hopitalizations could have been avoided if only more people had simply been vaccinated, and not listened to the blather of Trump and the reactionary lie that a desire for government CONTROL was the reason for encouraging people to get vaccine
Well since liberals write their own history these days... no doubt someone will write this as history.
But others might write a more factual history that ties to the more factual concept that Trump championed the vaccine, pushed and assisted US companies in coming up with the vaccine in record time, and got the vaccination ball rolling before he left office.
And a factual account will show that in the same time in 2021 when 50%, 55%, or even 60% of Americans are vaccinated that we had more cases and more deaths than in 2020 when nobody was vaccinated.
History might even judge the idea that while 80% of the world was successfully treating Covid when people caught it, the United States fought (for whatever reasons that history will not be able to explain) tooth and nail against any treatments what-so-ever. They may even cite President Biden limiting the amount of antibody treatments red state were allowed to purchase from the Federal Government.
But hey... that would just be a factual account of history.
Nothing compared to the history where we pretend something else.

You have to wonder what that would mean for the BBB bill. Progressives will have zero bargaining power on that. Joe Manchin will set the price and he might set it at zero!

The investigation into the January 6th Insurrection just seen the tip of Insurrection and slow motion coup by Trump.
How (and why) the Jan. 6 committee is making 'real progress'
On the surface, the Jan. 6 committee is fighting with Team Trump for cooperation. Below the surface, the investigation is making surprising strides.
Nov. 5, 2021, 6:24 AM PDT
By Steve Benen the producer of the Rachel Maddow show. One of many gay people we see every single day on commercials. That never happened in history.
In light of the coverage surrounding the Jan. 6 committee and its fight to hear from Donald Trump's allies, it may be tempting to think the bipartisan select committee has been stymied in its work.
As NBC News reported, there's fresh evidence to the contrary.
Members of the House panel investigating the Jan. 6 attack on the Capitol have interviewed more than 150 people so far, ranking member Rep. Liz Cheney, R-Wyo., said Thursday. Cheney, the top Republican on the select committee, said that the panel spoke to "a whole range of people connected to the events, connected to understanding what happens."
The select committee's co-chair added, "It is a range of engagements — some formal interviews, some depositions.... There really is a huge amount of work underway that is leading to real progress for us."
It led Politico to note, "The public has just seen the tip of the iceberg.... [Cheney's reference to more than 150 interviews] is an indication that the vast majority of the committee's work is happening out of public view."
This isn't like the Benghazi investigation.
It's more like the 9/11 invasion
We will prevail and the former might be Al Capone.
It still might happen today!!!!!!!°°°°

BWAAAAAAAAAAAAA!!! Bullshit goat fucker!!!!!
asked in category: General Last Updated: 27th January, 2020 Is wood clean burning?
Wood must be burned to release its energy, which also releases its climate-changing carbon. Pound for pound, burning wood releases less energy but more carbon than a fossil fuel. And burning wood releases an immediate pulse of carbon dioxide.
Plus creosote and particlutes that are very dangerous,....

Nikki Haley was trying to ‘undermine Trump’ when she called for 'cognitive tests': political analyst
When former UN ambassador Nikki Haley said this week that a "cognitive test" should be required for older politicians, most people interpreted it as an attack on President Joe Biden.
However, MSNBC political analyst Nick Confessore says Haley — rumored as a 2024 GOP presidential candidate — may also have been attempting to undermine her former boss, Donald Trump.
Confessore, a New York Times reporter, noted that Haley has been "trying to figure out how to run for president against Donald Trump without seeming to run for president against Donald Trump."
"I actually saw this comment — you know, it's being taken as an attack directly on Biden, and perhaps it is — but I see it in a way as a subtle undermining of Donald Trump," Confessore said, noting that Haley compared a cognitive test requirement to the expectation that candidates release their tax returns.
"She mentioned taxes, she mentioned an IQ test basically — a senility test — and her message overall was really, 'It's time for the next generation to take over, it's time to pass the torch,'" he added. "So I see her as sort of trying to undermine Trump and Biden at the same time."
She should be defeated in the next election.
“But Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA), chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, reportedly told Biden that she would continue to oppose the bipartisan infrastructure bill unless it’s paired up with a vote on BBB… This is a position progressives have taken for months.”
So Madam Pelosi is marking up the bill for a vote, unhitching buildbrandonBill.
Critical Race Theory was a dog whistle. In fact, some progressives have argued that CRT stands for Creating Racial Tension. I agree. But cynical, divisive racial appeals find more fertile soil when Democrats can't deliver. The middle-class American Dream is why God created the Democratic Party.
If they don't get their shit together they will lose everything in history from TDR to Biden.
But a similar delay threatened House Democrats yet again on Friday, first, because of the recent demands issued by centrists, who have said they want to see an official analysis of the bill by the Congressional Budget Office to determine its total cost and whether it would add to U.S. deficits.
“We’re waiting for the CBO score,” said Rep. Jared Golden (D-Maine). Asked if there would be a vote today, he replied: “I don’t know,” and signaled he would not supply his support without the budgetary document.
Pelosi and her Democratic leaders had worked late Thursday to assuage moderates and address a wide-array of unresolved policy issues in the bill, including outstanding fights over immigration and tax policy. The president also engaged the process, calling Democrats directly, in his latest burst of outreach to try to shepherd the two measures across the finish line in the chamber. And House leaders further presented reams of new data illustrating the bill would not add to the deficit.
By Friday night, the impasse remained unresolved. Moderates were unconvinced. About a half dozen, at one point, signaled they would not support the measure, known as the Build Back Better Act, without that score.
Pelosi then tried a different tactic, hoping to approve infrastructure, send it to the president’s desk and at least start debate on the rest of his spending agenda — with a final vote perhaps likely to happen once they had a fiscal analysis in hand. But that idea quickly encountered steep opposition as it infuriated some left-leaning lawmakers.
It's almost 8;00 PM EDT
Showdown: Pelosi dares liberals to sink infrastructure bill
BY MIKE LILLIS - 11/05/21 05:49 PM EDT
Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Friday escalated the tense standoff over President Biden's domestic agenda, daring liberals in her own caucus to oppose a bipartisan infrastructure bill that's languished in the House for months while negotiators haggled over a larger social spending package.
Progressives, behind Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-Wash.), have blocked the infrastructure proposal for fear that Senate centrists — Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) and Kyrsten Sinema (D-Ariz.) — would reject the bigger "family" benefits bill if the more popular public works bill had already reached Biden's desk.
In response, Pelosi has kept the infrastructure bill off the floor, even despite urging the liberals to reconsider their objections for the sake of giving the unpopular Biden a big legislative win.
That is, until now.
On Friday, after hours of negotiations in which Pelosi failed to convince a handful of moderates to back the social benefits package, the Speaker abruptly announced that the infrastructure bill would come to the floor for a vote along with the rule governing the larger benefits package — but not that package itself.
The move was immediately hammered by liberals, and Jayapal quickly issued a statement demanding that the two bills move in tandem and suggesting she had enough lawmakers behind her to sink it.
"As we’ve consistently said, there are dozens of our members who want to vote both bills — the Build Back Better Act and the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act — out of the House together," Jayapal said.
Pelosi didn't blink. Shortly afterwards, the Speaker staged a press conference, alongside her top lieutenants — Steny Hoyer (D-Md.) and James Clyburn (D-S.C.) — to say she's sticking with the plan to bring the infrastructure proposal to the floor, while suggesting she's already secured the support to pass it.
"I do believe there are a large number of members of the progressive caucus who will vote for the bill," Pelosi said. "I have Speaker's secret whip count."
The comments amount to the launch of a high-stakes game of chicken: Pelosi says she has the liberal votes to pass the infrastructure bill without the larger package; Jayapal says she has the liberal votes to block it.
The bill is scheduled to hit the floor Friday evening. And in a sign of how much is on the line, Biden called Jayapal Friday evening to make his case for Pelosi's plan.
Some liberals are already saying they're ready to back that plan, even if it's not their preferred strategy.
"If that's the way it ends up, what am I going to do?" said Rep. Raul Grijalva (D-Ariz.), a former head of the Congressional Progressive Caucus. "The risk of doing nothing, to me, is more profound than the sequence."
Rep. Ro Khanna (D-Calif.), another prominent progressive and close ally of Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.), who has urged against a stand-alone infrastructure vote, also suggested an openness to vote for infrastructure.
"I'm open to giving the leadership a hearing," he said.
Pelosi's surprising move marks a sharp departure for a Speaker who's built a reputation around securing support before staging votes on the floor. She has said repeatedly throughout the debate over Biden's agenda that she won't consider any bills that can't pass.
"I've never seen her bring something to the floor and dare people to oppose it. Have you?" asked one surprised Democratic aide.
Moderates who have been pressing for months for the stand-alone infrastructure bill are cheering Pelosi's decision to stage the vote on Friday — even if it fails.
"Let's let 'em vote no; let's see it," said Rep. Filemon Vela (D-Texas). "If they want to vote 'no' against $1.2 billion in their own congressional district, well let 'em go do it."
I think that was from The Hill.
Democrats who want the Republican Party to pay for the events of Jan. 6 — to suffer at the ballot box for their allegiance to Donald Trump — have to tie those events to a language and a narrative that speaks to the fear, anger and anxiety of the public at large. They have to tell a story. And not just once or twice — they have to do it constantly. It must become a fixture of the party’s rhetorical landscape.
And yet, while emotional appeals can move voters, they cannot work miracles. Even the strongest message can’t turn lead into gold. And there’s no rhetoric that can make up for poor performance on the job. A bloody shirt won’t save a party that can’t govern.
WASHINGTON — Facing resistance by a group of moderates in their ranks, Democratic leaders put their $1.85 trillion social policy, climate and tax package on hold on Friday, instead pushing to pass a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package whose fate was uncertain amid progressive opposition.
The retreat came after centrist Democrats balked at supporting the social policy plan without a formal estimate of its cost and economic effects. Hoping to convey movement toward approving it, House leaders said they would hold a procedural vote that would allow consideration of the measure in the future, with hopes of passing it by Thanksgiving.
But the delay and uncertainty were a setback for President Biden and Democratic congressional leaders, who had hoped to pass both measures on Friday and instead risked ending the day empty-handed, as intraparty feuding between moderates and progressives imperiled their agenda.
An off-year electoral drubbing this week further raised the stakes for anxious Democrats eager to prove that their party could deliver while in control of both chambers of Congress and the White House.
The infighting is not good news.

George W Bush adviser Karl Rove: “There are suspicious partisans across the spectrum who believe widespread election fraud is possible. Some hanky-panky always goes on, and there are already reports of poll watchers in Philadelphia not being allowed to do their jobs. But stealing hundreds of thousands of votes would require a conspiracy on the scale of a James Bond movie. That isn’t going to happen.”

House Passes the Bipartisan Infrastructure Bill
November 5, 2021 at 10:56 pm EDT By Taegan Goddard 261 Comments
The House of Representatives passed the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure bill, 228 to 206.
The bill, which passed the Senate in August, will now go to President Biden for his signature.
It is a major legislative accomplishment for Speaker Nancy Pelosi and the Biden administration.
The BBB will pass soon after we laugh at you Scott.
Congrats on passing a bill that costs $1.65 Trillion.
