Nothing To See Here...Just Another Biden Win.
House Republicans were not able to convince the two-thirds majority they needed to overturn President Biden’s veto of a resolution that would have shot down his proposal to cancel up to $20,000 of a borrower’s student debt.

Adam Schiff: “I want to thank Kevin McCarthy and the MAGA Republicans for censuring me. My Senate campaign has just raised over $20M.”

Obama Says Press Intimidation, Efforts to ‘Silence Critics’ Are Not ‘Unique’ to One Party in America

The Titan Sub Imploded On Sunday

The U.S. Coast Guard says a missing submersible imploded near the wreckage of the Titanic, killing all five people on board.

Coast Guard officials said during a news conference Thursday that they've notified the families of the crew of the Titan, which has been missing for several days. Debris found during the search for the vessel “is consistent with a catastrophic implosion of the vessel,” said Rear Adm. John Mauger of the First Coast Guard District.

‘Titanic’ director James Cameron on the ‘catastrophic implosion’ of Titan submersible: “I’m struck by the similarity of the Titanic disaster itself, where the captain was repeatedly warned about ice ahead of his ship and yet he steamed at full speed into an ice field."

Republicans Are Giving Golf A Bad Name

After Ron DeSantis, an avid golfer, moved into the Florida governor’s mansion in 2019, workers installed a golf simulator worth tens of thousands of dollars in the private pool cabana so he could practice his game.

But DeSantis did not pay for the simulator. Neither did the state government. Instead, it was funded by a wealthy donor and prominent businessman, Morteza Hosseini, according to four sources familiar with the matter and state government records.

We need a law that says both elected and appointed members of government may not accept gifts of any kind, no plane flights, no accommodations, no money, no favors, no dinners, nothing,

Also full financial discloser and a strict code of ethics. - Stonekettle tweet

Republican Shenanigans

House GOP members not happy with Lauren Boebert for forcing a vote to impeach Joe Biden. In conference, Speaker McCarty argued against it, per attendees. Many are opposed. And even a backer, MTG, criticized Boebert for copying her impeachment resolution, calling her a “copy cat” - Manu Raju, CNN tweet

Is There Such A Thing As A Mass Impeachment? Because The U.S. Supreme Court Sure Needs It.

In early July 2008, Samuel Alito stood on a riverbank in a remote corner of Alaska. The Supreme Court justice was on vacation at a luxury fishing lodge that charged more than $1,000 a day, and after catching a king salmon nearly the size of his leg, Alito posed for a picture. To his left, a man stood beaming: Paul Singer, a hedge fund billionaire who has repeatedly asked the Supreme Court to rule in his favor in high-stakes business disputes.

Singer was more than a fellow angler. He flew Alito to Alaska on a private jet. If the justice chartered the plane himself, the cost could have exceeded $100,000 one way.

Clarence Thomas: "I am the most unethical justice in the history of the Supreme Court."
Sam Alito: "Hold my expensive bottle of wine!"
