How does anyone expect these complete and total idiots to keep the government open when they couldn't even keep the GOP open???

Far be it from me to defend Rich (which I’m not) but there actually are pro-hamas voices at universities, and probably more than you think. We also all may be shocked that the people of Dearborn may well send Rashida Tliab back to congress next year.

You know me well 😅 I doubt I read much of the OP.  isn’t there some law forbidding cruel and unusual punishment?

Does anyone on the right ever really listen to Donald J. Trump? Btw the J stands for genius.

That guy is totally delusional. But what is worse is that so many of his followers actually believe him!

Most of them just hate Biden\Demonrats (as my insane MI classmates like to call them). The only strategy the GOP has used for 7 years is to try and make Biden look worse than Trump. That ANYONE  could think Biden is more corrupt or dishonest than Trump is a testiment to how effective they have been - Goebbels would be impressed.

I simply cannot fathom that Trump is a viable possibility to win the Presidency back next year and is leading in some polls...

Yes, they voted to Censure the lying Leftist Democrat Anti-semitic Bitch, with 20 Democrats who have a semblance of a spine, voting with the Republicans to Rebuke this disgusting vile cretinous slime named Rashida Tlaib.

Personally, I hope Rashida Tlaib is not reelected, but I don't live in that district and like you said it is mostly middle eastern and very religious with both Chaldean and Islamic communities with recent immigrants and first, second, and third generation Americans. 

I live in the district next door and if you ever find yourself in Detroit I can steer you to a few really good middle eastern/Mediterranean restaurants. Take a drive down W. Warren Ave. in Dearborn and you'll see you aren't in Kansas anymore.

Ike's in Auburn Hills - it's the bomb. Turned me on to fresh Kibbeh nayeh. Amazing stuff. I'm blessed to have some Lebanese relatives in my family there.

And to be on topic Tlaib's district includes most of Telegraph Road.


Only a true local calls it Pine Knob! I understand they are changing the name back to it again. I grew up in Rochester Hills not far from there.

ABC News: Sen. Joe Manchin, moderate West Virginia Democrat, won't seek reelection

It'll make it tough for the dems to hold onto that seat, and Manchin could F it up even more by running as a third party candidate which would probably syphon off votes for Biden and then we could have Trump 2.0 with a GOP congress.

Thanks, Joe.

I hope all the Dems that bashed Manchin are happy - they are about to get a GOP replacement.
