"She thinks we have no impact on the climate but somehow control the weather," scoffed another House Republican.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

Well its a house Republican that's too cowardly to have their name affixed to the idea that MTG, and a whole bunch of the Republican base by proxy, are pants-shittingly stupid.
So maybe spike that cookie with some exlax.
A pookie
You know, that works, but I've heard that word only in two totally different contexts before.
As a term of endearment used by grandmas... and a self given nickname of a friend I used to have...

Did you live in New Jack City?
You give a conservative a cookie and they're going to want a glass of milk. You give them a glass of milk and suddenly life saving health care is illegal.
You give them a glass of milk and they throw it at you after tasting it, because it isn't raw and unpasteurized, and your glass of phony processed milk is trying to poison them.
I am so done with the misinformation and the lying and attacking. Republicans need to clean their shit up. I hope they get smacked fuckin hard this election. If not, they'll just say it's stolen. So everyone has to vote. We have to win in a landslide.

I think it's pretty clear by now that Republicans, and certainly Trump, will say they won regardless of the election results.
I'm tired of pretending like democracy means anything in this country when someone like Trump could have been considered a trustworthy candidate for any office since, what, the 80's?
"FFS Marjorie, we're PRETENDING not to know how things work as a strategy. " -- Some house member probably
You just need to decouple your tachyon emitters from the positronic relay and reroute some of the hyper-coolant from your warp core to the phase compensators. Pretty sure that either controls hurricanes or creates a black hole, one of the two.
That's actually a dangerous misconception. Decoupling the tachyon emitters from the positronic relay without first isolating their quantum harmonics could destabilize the entire subspace field matrix and cause an exponential thermal feedback loop. Best case scenario is a massive thermal overload. Worst case is a catastrophic core breach resulting in a high energy failure. Are you TRYING to get us all killed?
I have a theoretical doctorate in physics, obviously
This person it correct.
I have a username on Lemmy, before you ask.
I actually already asked.
Damn. I'm always timing things wrong.
=P
Just slow down a bit maybe.
I did. And ended up in yesterday.
Man, I miss r/vxjunkies
Thanks, Geordi
Scotty would say it would take 4 hours but that he'll be able to get it done in 2 and then finish up in 1 hour and have an hour to himself.
That's how you know he's a miracle worker
Spoken like a true engineer
This is clearly not a Starfleet approved procedure because at no time did you reverse the polarity
They didn't even bother with a phase shift smh
You gonna do all that without even reversing the polarity of the deflector dish? Your funeral, man.
Hey you! Back to TenForward!
I'm pretty sure they just need the Rockwell Retro Encabulator to reduce that side fumbling.
Do you mean Guy? He doesn't even have a last name!
"UNCLE OWEN! ..... This one has a bad motivator!"
**What they're saying: **Rep. Carlos Gimenez (R-Fla.), who represents a Hurricane-prone district in South Florida, replied to one of Greene's posts writing, "NEW FLASH —> Humans cannot create or control hurricanes."
- "Anyone who thinks they can, needs to have their head examined," he added – a biting direct rebuke of a fellow House Republican.
Why yes please examine all of our Congressional heads. Also what da fk have they been ingesting? In the word of AvE, focus you f#k!
