Periodic reminder--

Kevin McCarthy’s political committees spent at least $250,000 at Trump's properties while he was president.

Via AOC:

Here’s what went down: we just won a clean 45 day gov extension, stripped GOP’s earlier 30% cuts to Social Security admin etc, staved off last minute anti-immigrant hijinks, and averted shutdown (for now).

People will get paychecks and MTG threw a tantrum on the way out. Win-win

I'd love to see Elizabeth May serve as the next #Speaker of the House. She has a long history of working with all parties, demonstrating an impartiality which is supposed to a major part of the Speaker's job. And she also demands civility within the House whenever she is given an opportunity to speak. Both qualities I'd like to see in the next person to sit in the Speaker's chair. #cdnpoli #gpc

What a miserably small characterization of a human the #speaker is.

He rejected a request from Zelensky to address a joint meeting of Congress.

Republicans are far more upset with John Fetterman wearing casual clothes in the Senate than with Donald Trump's attempted coup, inciting the Jan 6 terrorist attack and committing 32 counts of ESPIONAGE. Tells you everything you need to know about today's MAGA GOP.

#Republicans are "inventing" stuff to keep them busy until the #Shutdown Friday so they don't have to address it.

Remember last week they were ready to recall #Speaker #McCarthy, and then Nothing.

If they recall him, the House can do nothing else until he's replaced.

I believe they will recall him on Thursday or Friday to ENSURE a #Shutdown.

“He was someone with that boardroom presence. He’d walk into a meeting and the conversation would stop." Mike Madrid

Reupping this New Yorker article from December 2022, which predicted two years of unrelenting investigations and threats of impeachment. How did Kevin McCarthy get to this point, and what will he do to gain power?

Well it took quite long but it's a really nice and clean print, even with some broken supports. Will assemble it tomorrow or so and if it sounds good I will print a second one 🤓🔊

Thinking 🤔 about putting a .6mm nozzle in this printer because I will only use this one for larger prints.

What was your first experience using Linux? How old were you? Stick around or did you go back to windows before eventually circling back to Linux?

I’ll go first, I took my mom’s college textbooks which came with discs for a couple distros and failed to install RHEL before managing to get Fedora Core 4 working. The first desktop environment I used was KDE and despite trying out a few others over the years I always come back to plasma. Due to being like 12, I wanted to...
