35 Rex had no constituency at all - and yet he failed to realize he was totally dependent on Trump for any support at all while he was in office. No one on either side ever cared about whether he stayed or left, he was just useful at times to use to poke at Trump with. Which is why no one even notices he's gone.

The word "Nazi" is an abbreviation for the word "Nationalsozialist". The full name of the political party was the "Nationalsozialistische Deutsche Arbeiterpartei" - the National Socialist German Worker's Party. It's worth noting that, within Germany at the time, the word "Nazi" was a homnym for ...

You will note, that everything that makes the Senate dysfunctional... are rules they imposed upon themselves.

Rules that can be changed with a simple majority vote...

Rules which were NOT in place for the Founder's of this country....

In fact... it was in 1975 that the rule was changed, so the Senate could conduct OTHER business during a filibuster.... making them more the norm, than the exception...

Chris Coons (D) voted present because Johnny Isakson (R) wasn't able to be on the floor till later since he was giving the eulogy at a friends funeral.

Corker acted like he was a hero.

244 109 because his last underground test effectively destroyed the Nork nuclear testing facilities.

Oh, that would be hilarious. "Sir, the good news is that we'get wildly exceeded our expectations!"

There's a good chance that's what happened. The Norks do all of their testing inside a tunneled out granite mountain, near the Chinese border. Seismic monitoring showed that the test blast 2 months ago was significantly more powerful than anything they had done before, surprising the US monitoring stations. And then, several seconds later, there was a large secondary seismic shock, completely unexpected. Satellite measurements show that the mountain peak has now dropped by some significant number of feet - the conclusion is that there was a significant underground collapse in the facility, due to the power of the explosion. It's also likely that the collapse led to a loss of containment, and that the entire facility is now heavily radioactive.

Oops.

He won the 1963 Heisman Trophy and was then drafted as the 129th overall pick of the 1964 NFL draft by the Dallas Cowboys. He began playing professional football in 1968 after serving a four-year military commitment in the #USNavy as a supply officer, ultimately attaining the rank of lieutenant.
