Inverting the “tragedy plus time” formula Late night comics weighed in on the Republicans’ 15-round House Speaker fight (New York Times): “Things really started to spin out on the floor of the House. It got so out of control, I thought I was watching the Oscars.” — JIMMY KIMMEL “Ahead of the last round of voting for House speaker, Alabama Congressman Mike Rogers appeared to charge at fellow Republican Representative Matt Gaetz. And, out of habit, Gaetz yelled ‘I’ve never even met your daughter!’” — SETH MEYERS “That’s a face mask violation — 15 yards.

Or the changing climate Dr. Ian Malcolm : Oh, yeah. Oooh, ahhh, that’s how it always starts. Then later there’s running and um, screaming.

Keep in mind that cutting spending is just owning the libs. They are all too stupid to have the most rudimentary understanding of what any of this means. The good news is that they can’t accomplish any of this stuff because they only have one house of congress and if they strong arm their swing state members into voting for this loony nonsense they’ll lose their seats in 2024. Of course, they will take the debt ceiling hostage at their earliest convenience to try to blackmail the Senate and the White House into going along with this ridiculous bullshit so that will be fun. But in the end they are cutting their own throats. And America is going to “go through some things.”
