Update: Senate shelves the BBB Act
Jwheel86 replied to b_m_b_m_b_m's topic in The Political Re-Education Camp
Why not break the bill up into pieces that can be voted on individually? Force them to vote down the Child Tax Credit, then Climate, then SSI, then HCBS. Make the issue the policies not the price tag. -
Raleigh has housing? A family friend in Raleigh just sold their house after getting 17 offers, winning bid threw in NFL season tickets.

Yes please. -
The troops that were pulled weren't holding Kabul AFAIK, they were most at Bagram. Once the government collapsed, it took 7 infantry battalions (plus the Turks and Brits) to hold the airport. Preventing looting in Kabul would have taken WAY more and without the perimeter to keep suicide bombers back. The only thing I think that could have been done differently was using Bagram as leverage. Tell the Taliban that we'll be finished when we're finished or we'll retake Bagram and keep it indefinitely (look at all the pressure our President is under on CNN).

That thing is probably already on it's way to China to test out their missiles against.

Right, because MacArthur and Patton NEVER talked to the press. Did Trump fast forward those parts of the movie?

Which could take days since a bunch of helicopters have to be broken down and loaded into cargo planes.

The long term success of my relationship is very much contingent on this bill passing, very weird feeling. -
