  1. I accepted that I was wrong. Doesn't answer the question why the Speaker of the House doesn't call them to session.
  2. I stand corrected. Why doesn't Maga Mike Johnson do it?
  3. Typical tact of the Trumptards. Can't make an case on your own, call for the mob to bail you out. Funny how he said Biden could have gone to Congress but ignored the fact that Congress is not in session because of Mike Johnson.
  4. Sorry that basic english is beyond your comprehension.
  5. Yep. I tend to think he is a bot.
  6. Meh. I've gotta wonder how popular the cyber trucks are in the deep red south. I haven't seen many Teslas when driving through that area at all and the cyber truck is a butt ugly POS that southerners probably wouldn't want.
  7. This video was debunked earlier today. Sorry you can't keep up.
  8. Well the basic premise is that warmer waters lead to stronger cyclones. Seems reasonable since cyclones don't form closer to the arctic.
  9. It is Congress that directed FEMA to administer the funds for border security and immigration. I'm not sure FEMA ever asked for it and certainly would not have done so it a "Disaster Relief Fund Funding Requirements" request.
  10. The full year has not be appropriated. There is a continuing resolution until December 20. From what I've read, they are saying they have enough money for operations for now. Whether of not that will last to December 20 is doubtful. I answered your question regarding how money was spent. What I think doesn't much matter since it is Congress that decides how to spend the money. Your argument is with Congress, not me. Pity you can't figure that out.
  11. The money Congress appropriated was spent in the manner Congress intended. Nothing was practically stolen. Donald Trump is manipulating you.
  12. You really have no clue how the appropriations process works. CONGRESS appropriated funds for specific purposes. They don't just hand $6 trillion over to the President and tell him to spend it however he likes. I notice you didn't find any fault in the links I provided.
  13. Reposting what I wrote earlier today. Disaster relief money was not spent on illegals. Everything you point to says "FEMA money" but FEMA does not get to decide what to spend all the funds on, Congress does. Congress set money aside for disaster relief and that money was not spent on illegals. The Republican controlled Congress also set money aside for Customs and Border Protection to help communities that received influxes of migrants. FEMA administered that money as well, but those are two different tranches of money. Was it FEMA money? Yes. Was it "practically stolen" as Trump said? No. Trump is conflating the two to rile up his base but this does nothing to help the victims of Helene.
