Bingo!

Bad optics and fist bumps don't look so hot coming into the midterms.

Nah bro…

those guys failed the veterans.


What y’all call tribalism I call Set Tripping.


Which the Urban Dictionary defines as:

"Sets" are refrences to street gangs. Set tripping is violent results from the confrontation of two rival gangs or gang members. Gang members identify eachother by tattoos, hand signs, and colors worn. Gang members or gangbangers rarley hesitate to attack another gang member who represents a rival gang.
"Ready to pop the clip in, ready to start (set) trippin'" - T.I.

Bloods crips vicelords etc all behave in a similar fashion.

think about all the peace talks that fell thru in the 90’s… same shit at play here with the Dems and Repubs…

only instead of a street corner they’re playing with or lives and bank accounts.

Just in case anybody didn't see the 11-page thread that's been at the top of the War Room for the past week

There is like 80 billion in non discretionary spending in the defense bill every year not a single Republican has a problem with that one. Yet 40 billion a year for a decade they suddenly have a problem please.

You guys are a bunch of wet noodles.

Wet noodles are the tastiest noodles, dry noodles are barely even edible.

That’s not kosher.

It's not current pork per se, it's just a loophole to smuggle it in later. You should know by now they don't write bills that are just what they say they are. It's not even clever, but everyone has to pretend the bills are all "the hugs for puppies act" because they can't make a separate bill called "pork for donors".

Such an obvious factual truth yet the left pretends it’s not true.

Yet the bill specifies that all funds goes towards the treatment of veterans. This is made clear in Section 805 - Cost Of War Toxic Exposures Fund:

Spoiler: Sec. 805

“(a) Establishment.—There is hereby established in the Treasury of the United States an account to be known as the ‘Cost of War Toxic Exposures Fund’ (the ‘Fund’), to be administered by the Secretary.

(1) the delivery of veterans’ health care associated with exposure to environmental hazards in the active military, naval, air, or space service in programs administered by the Under Secretary for Health;

“(2) any expenses incident to the delivery of veterans’ health care and benefits associated with exposure to environmental hazards in the active military, naval, air, or space service, including administrative expenses, such as information technology and claims processing and appeals, and excluding leases as authorized or approved under section 8104 of this title; and

“(3) medical and other research relating to exposure to environmental hazards.

So your "factual truth" is made up. You don't get to invent it, and in this instance, you are both wrong.

 

[Sano]

The little coward shrinks when confronted.

What a coward. He's been spreading lies about the bill non stop and basically trying to defame Stewart as a means to do damage control. He's the worst. I'd like to see the full clip for sure, Stewart is a way bigger man than me calming down and trying to reach some common ground with that POS, simply for the fact that he cares more about the issue than personal slights.

Senate passes PACT Act, expanding health care for veterans exposed to toxic burn pits

Boom, the passed it. Finally, well done by Stewart and everyone else fighting for this.

Where are all the pearl clutchers at now?

You just can't help putting your footh in your mouth huh. The bill with the exact same funding, which is all spending towards veterans care and no pork, was passed by the Senate in June. Then the republicans tried to vote it down for political reasons, after it came back again. Then they were pressured and shown to be liars and cowards by their false objections, and a few days later they cave and pass it again. Truly showing that nothing was wrong with the bill in the first place and it was all political theater. Which it was.

Glorification of political violence and calling someone a molester. You should go for the trifecta and accuse someone of inappropriate behavior with children.

Not caring that wrestlers on your team were getting their balls fondled, by the team Doctor, is not a molester. A coward sure, but not a molester.
Dont worry HBO has a documentary coming out about Ohio State, cant wait for you to defend Gym Jordan because he is on your team. I know you cant help but to defend.
Also it was not political violence, Rand fucked around and found out.
Dude told him to keep his yard waste on his own yard. Rand did not heed the warning.

 

[44nutman]

Those same Republicans voted for Deficit Donny’s increased spending. Donny’s 1st budget increased spending and then pork was not a problem. Quit defending hypocritical assholes who would not spit on you if you were on fire.
what a clown world we live in where people actively defend politicians because of team politics.
The reason America is failing is because Rubes have been duped by the media they consume into thinking one side is better than the other. The War Room is basically a bunch of parrots saying talking points their masters taught them.
