43 deceased is the current count. 28 adults & 15 children. At least 27 more missing (girls at Christian camp) with an unknown number of others that may have been there for the 4th long weekend. Saying Guadalupe River rose 26 feet in 45 minutes. -
Once again you are right lol
-
Believe that's 25 for 25 in save opportunities.

[Hidden Content] Yeah⌠better hope youâve checked out by 2033 or expect to see those benefits automatically cut by 23%. Weâre running a deficit on SS spending since 2021. The trust fund runs out and then cuts happen. Why not take 5% cut now that enables more people to draw for longer? -

No offense, but the Simpletons are gonna vote for whoever Trump tells them to. -
From the article: "Over the last several years, dating back to before the COVID-19 pandemic, a trend has emerged in the labor market: a divergence between employment levels of natural US citizens and foreign-born individuals. The gap widened substantially during the previous administration, favoring newcomers. In the early days of President Donald Trumpâs second term, however, American workers have gained all the new jobs this year." Why would the left be proud of this? I thought Dems were for the working people? I guess I didn't realize they were not talking about American working people!

The BIG BEAUTIFUL BILL - PASSED THE HOUSE

Parliamentarian rules arenât binding. The position was created because Senators spent more time arguing procedure than policy. Itâs an advisory position created in 1935. Supposedly non-partisan. But, the current Parliamentarian was appointed by Harry Reid in 2012. Parliamentarians can be fired at the whim of the Senate Majority Leader. Some called for her firing over some of these rules. But, they backed off for some reason. If Musk is so frustrated he wants to start his own Partyâwhich is nigh impossible because of rules created by Dems & Reps (the UniParty I think he calls them)âheâd be better off funding the Libertarian Party. His thoughts seem to align with them the best anyway, and they already have ballot access & Party structure set up. A few more Rand Pauls wouldnât necessarily be a bad thing in my mind. Make the 2 major Parties have to form a consensus with a third Party. Pretty sure some of the fiscal conservative Reps could be convinced to join as well. Wouldnât take many. Eleven total would probably do it in the Senate. Just where neither side could get 50. -

I doubt the Parliamentarian is constitutional. We need answers on this! -
Hope it is a good thing. I used to call him Nervous Neris.

Better believe Dems will harp on people losing healthcare while never mentioning that 14 of Dem led States can still provide insurance of some level to illegal migrants, and we all pay for it because of the Senate Parliamentarian. That part will never come up. -

Some items the Senate Parliamentarian shot down. Were going to be cost saving offsets. But, she thought they violated the Byrd Rule. (There were a lot more. But, this article had $$$ attached and the other varied articles didnât.) [Hidden Content] I bet these rules are some of what Musk doesnât understand, and leads to his frustration. Canât say I blame him. To avoid the Byrd Rule, must have 60 votes. Donât see that happening anytime in the near future. -

Astros sign relief pitcher Hector Neris. He will be available for today's game. Houston sent down RHP Alexander to AAA to make a roster spot for Neris. This is Neris third stint with Houston. He pitched for the Angels and Braves this season.

Would have been good. But, didnât accomplish it. 14 states plus D.C. offer Medicaid to illegal immigrants. All of them are Democratically led States. The Senate Parliamentarian stopped the Bill from not paying for any because of procedural issues. All the Bill was able to do was to cut Fed matching from .90 of every dollar to .50 of every dollar for uninsured ER visits. (So, taxpayers in Texas will still be paying for medical care for illegals in CA and 13 other states.) Thus, one of the major reasons the Bill costs more than originally planned. That, plus some last minute pork they always find a way to slide in. Dems or Reps. Both do it. [Hidden Content] [Hidden Content]
