    People who run the country- "I have no idea how this is done, it's not like it's my job to know" also if you are not hyper competent ambitious and lucky you deserve to be homeless and live as a 3rd class citizen or die.

        It's a game the real bourgeoisie play. They're in fake make work jobs for the heirs of our ruling class. They work on social promotions that are too big to fail or too rich to fail I mean.

    Apparently her “it’s too late, we never seen it coming“ bullshit pissed enough people off that she is now just trying to blame any and every thing not her.

    Normal libshit.

        “We only learned of this yesterday,” Pelosi told reporters Friday evening after the failed vote. “There was not enough time to socialize it within our caucus as well as to build a consensus necessary.”

            Don't attribute to incompetence what can be clearly seen as depraved indifference.

            Just remember what every shit lib on twitter says. These people are in charge because they're so smart and competent. That being the case, this is clearly malice or indifference

            to pass a law you must bring a yoshi doll to get a ribbon to get some dog food to get some bananas to get a stick to get a honeycomb to get a pineaple to get a hibiscus to get a letter to get a broom to get a fishing hook to get a necklace to get a scale to get a magnifying lass to get a rejection from congress

        That's why it was important to elect Biden since he immediately expanded the supreme court once in office.

    If an elected body is saying an unelected bureaucracy is actually responsible for x, that means that elected body is scapegoating

      Then they’ll complain about presidential overreach under Trump. Do your fucking JOB and stop pushing off responsibility onto the executive bureaucracy and they wouldn’t be able to do this shit. Congress doesn’t even need to rubber stamp declarations of war anymore. We just deploy first and ask questions later.

    Could somebody give me a link to a Schoolhouse Rock Youtube vid or something? I entirely forgot my middle school civics lessons. The CDC is one of the major branches of the federal government?


    Reply tweets...

    Congress has more power than the CDC. Why didn't you all do something instead madam speaker of the House?

    They didn't have the votes.

    Tweet

    The "They don't have the votes" liberals are making me insane. God give me strength not so say what I want to say at this site. Digital is forever and eventually we will be under a microscope. But holy fucking fuck does she need to be d████ and q████████ and then ███ ███████ █████ just to be sure.

      Sorry. Enjoy your underpass!

      I love the one shitlib going "oh they didn't have the votes because a bunch of congresspeople were out of town when they voted," like that's supposed to make fucking anything better. "Yeah the dems have a majority but they just, like, weren't there that day when it counted, bro, don't hold it against them, dawg."

      fuck it, link: https://twitter.com/BrianMGreen/status/1421938897546891265

      oh and the shitass replying to them to suck them off in agreement and call people stupid and "ignorant of procedure", fucking bell-ends.

        Psssst politicians are very purposeful about which votes they do and don’t miss. Gives them plausible deniability about how they would have voted and let’s them block bills without explicitly voting against them

        The democrats need to utilize a timing device that they might not be entirely familiar with. It's called a "calendar".

        Seriously, from any rational, ethical, humanitarian perspective - the democrats are garbage. Biden didn't wanna use an executive order. And Pelosi didn't wanna be responsible for actually starting a process. So they actually went ahead and did nothing. And then they started to point fingers and lie.

        This would be funny if the deadline was for "critical" military funding like money has to be available immediately for some already insanely bloated Pentagon money pit. The dems would have simply cancelled the vacations for both the house and the senate until this terrible problem was solved.

        But it's not the military - it's just 6,000,000 households that are in danger of eviction so - fuck them. Oopsie​! Biden and Pelosi and go back to their ice cream.

    The supreme court ruled that the CDC couldn't extend it. https://friedmanvartolo.com/supreme-court-finds-that-the-cdc-exceeded-its-authority-with-nationwide-eviction-moratorium/

      Now why would this ghoul not tell her truth? God I hate her so much. The other day she said Biden can't forgive debt and now this.

    she can't straight up say "I hate poor people," because then she would be indistinguishable from her differently colorschemed allies, so she just has to lie.

    It seems like manufacturing some bullshit tbh. Like this is the most pointless gesture to say something like this in order to appease her yaass queen base. It accomplishes nothing while appearing to seem like she cares or in their minds, is somehow fighting for something. Just :liberalism: propaganda

    Reading the comments of absolutely pea-brained but condescending shitlibs trying to back her up and talking down to people about how they don't understand the political process, all under this comment from this old fucking lich hag calling on the CDC to do what the SC specifically stated they couldn't do -- it's too much. Brain rot, all the way. Absolute moronic assholes.

    These rotten knobs are pulling the same fucking nerd trivia about procedure they did under Obama, which can not only be directly contradicted by facts about our trash political procedure and what these turd politicians can actually do for us (but refuse to), but also doesn't mean a fucking thing to anybody when the end result is still massive failure and millions of people added to our already massive homeless population.

    I hope Nancy Pelosi has a stress-induced heart attack or some shit from everybody who still has a brain laying into her for failing the country.
