Two guys getting deported. One asked the other what he did. Dude replied, "Grabbed some l*dy by the p*ssy. You?"

Other guy replied, "Took a piss in an alley."
“Taking a trip? Where to?”  -“Wherever I end up, I guess. -“Man, I wish I was you." -Well, hang in there.”

Some House Democrats thought the bill was superfluous and duplicative, basically “immigration messaging” legislation.  Illegal immigrants who commit sexual offenses are already subject to deportation under current laws and regulations.

https://www.newsweek.com/illegal-immigrant-child-sex-offender-1979872

Other Democrats were concerned the legislation could make victims of sexual violence eligible for deportation on the grounds that they defended themselves using violence, thereby making it less likely that sexual violence will actually be reported.   

Here's Rep. Nadler's explanation of why he voted against the bill:  https://nadler.house.gov/news/documentsingle.aspx?DocumentID=395187

Hopefully the Senate can sort things out.  I’m all for making the immigration enforcement process work better and closing any loopholes.

This is from June.

This you ?
"Why bring this up now.?  The vote was last September."

I brought that up because Musk is bringing this up now. I thought that was pretty fucking obvious. Nice try though.

I can't find any updates on the lawsuit, but those things tend to move slowly. I don't know if it's still pending. It could be.

Meanwhile, why is a how Dems voted on a probably flawed bill being brought up now?  How we deal sex offences is flawed, but oh no, we can't talk about that. We just keep doubling down, making the same mistakes, over and over.

From today's fishwrap story about the climate change devastation in LA.

The only mention of the LA Mayor, who was in Ghana for a Presidential inauguration but allegedly will not be in Washington DC for a Presidential inauguration.


Her press handlers may have gotten to her just a tiche too late tho.

Not surprised that I read a lot of anger and criticism here about the hurricanes and Florida government and people living in a flood zone deserving to die, but haven’t heard a peep about the people or the government of the arid fire zone that’s on fire.

Apparently you haven't been paying attention to the proper news sources.

Ahh.

Just celebrating that this will now spare all of us of a Newsome presidential run, not that Murph won't still talk him up as being (allegedly) competent.

Noted MAGAt James Wood on CNN crying about losing his home. There is so much to unpack in this.

He had just spent 4 years and millions rebuilding his home in a narrow inferno zone. And then he didn't have homeowners insurance. Oops. He notes that pretty much everyone in Palisades was dropped by their insurers, our Tahoe place has been dropped like 5 times, and each time we go find another (more expensive) insurer - HE chose to go naked.

Puts Trump in the vice - if he pushes back on FEMA aid for Southern California, he does so at the cost to his ardent notorious supporter James Woods.

Of course he posts "It's not climate change, it's Kamala and Gavin, the reservoirs are empty". CA reservoirs are well above historical averages, but that has nothing to do with fighting a fire on his hillside. He complained about the brush near his house, but it wasn't on government land, it was his neighbor - does he think that the government should impinge upon his neighbor's freedom?

Also of note: Woods goes to great length talking about how everyone boogied out when the fire hit. Because we - even James Woods - aren't Florida. Nobody "deserves to die" but i have less sympathy for people who ignore a 5 day+ advance notice of a Cat 4 hurricane who don't evacuate, if Californians can evac from a fire with minutes of notice.

The latest from the MAGA Truthsayer:

Just like in Florida, state and federal officials need to get more creative about incentives for encouraging residents to move from high-risk wildfire areas.

So the bill was performative art. That checks out. Would doubly check out if we still had fact-checkers.
"He commented more than once that, 'You know, Hitler did some good things, too,'" Kelly recalled to The Times. Kelly said he would usually quash the conversation by saying "nothing (Hitler) did, you could argue, was good," but that Trump would occasionally bring up the topic again.
