    All those people who were just elected need to step up and keep their eyes on the ball. Because there’s still at least two quarters of antifash left to play.

      Meanwhile the two likely Democratic spokepeople for the house and senate just came out and said their priority is finding ways to work with Republicans. They’re like the dog chasing the car that finally got ahold of the bumper. They can no longer talk big from the position of an underdog and don’t yet know how to spin the fact that they have zero interest in holding these people accountable or cutting down on all the blatant corruption.

        Or he’s just flailing and Miller’s the only guy that wanted it, nobody else wants to join/move up. Or he’s going to need Miller to do something heinous that causes intense backlash and an excuse for emergency rule or whatever you want to call it to not seat the new Congress

        Someone’s gotta sit outside the bunker and grab the grub hub off the porch when they refuse to leave.
