(who allows bills to be considered ONLY which the Orange Menace will 'sign') [anti our sacred Constitution; that is: negates the check/balance function of a "working Senate" ... now an oxymoron.] (As might somewhat ameliorate the "I'm Alright, Jack [and Fuck You!]" aspect of the {inner-voice} obtuseness of Your talking-heads?) Hmm? I mean: many of us dis-USAians have looked Eastward to the Mother Country for stability within a World now placed just about like that ascii-art depiction [re "Windoze Stability" ..way-back] ..remember? (too lazy to find the actual file..) A Cone poised on its tip on a shaker-table with lots of {{ ... }} marks around the flat-top. So what's Not-happening --> There? ..Armageddin wonky about the species-survival shtik as seems most Every-when and where; it appears that there aren't enough Cats to provide the close-up solace needed by the internally-convulsed masses (all breathing out CO₂, plastic-bagging all their shit.. oceans, air, Minds!) ... heap-baad Zeitgeist. ;^>

We simply don't have a position analogous to that occupied by the chinless shitehawk McConnell - a man, who amongst many richly-deserving candidates, is particularly worthy of a firm smack in the gob. What we do have, however, is the apolitical position of Speaker of the House of Commons - John Bercow. Who has displayed some massive balls lately in ensuring that the interests of the House (i.e. the sanctity of Parliament) are not subordinate to the interests of the Government. https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-politics-46818428

I'd argue that Johnson, Farage and that "Ghost of a Dickens villain" Jacob Rees-Mogg are just as morally bankrupt as McConnell. Bercow is(?)/should be considered a national hero in Britain. bcnu, Mikem It's mourning in America again.
