Why in the world would this be what you burn the filibuster over. Let SNAP lapse. The Republicans have the best argument they are ever going to have for a budget bill being this is just continuing the existing budget. Why break out the nuclear option to save the Democrats from falling on their sword.
 
Again, unless you utterly obliterate the dems from taking power again, its not worth getting rid of. Its a good thing overall.
As Cocaine Mitch prophetically warned Harry Reid RE: judicial appointments, attempted power grabs like nuking the filibuster routinely backfire.

Because A: federal employees are like on paystub 2 of no pay. Which is bad for moral/loyalty. And B: while EBT is fun to make fun of, it is not good optics for normies.
 
Happy Halloween everybody, let’s pointlessly argue over something that doesn’t matter.
What is the best candy
Skittles, by far. (Reeses Pumpkins are a close second)

And what is the worst candy.
Candy Corn, again, by far. It's not that it tastes "bad", it's just... so "meh" for how bad it makes you feel and for how much randomly shows up around Halloween.

Mitch is a fucking ghoul, but he knew exactly what would happen then when they nuked the judicial filibuster; this is no fucking different. Once its gone it is NEVER coming back.
 
Peanut butter cups are my guilty pleasure...

Worst are tootsie rolls. No fucking clue how anyone can like that shit.
Good: Kit Kat, Snickers, M&Ms, Reeses pieces or cups.

Medium: Twix and 3 Musketeers

Worst Licorice or Tootsie rolls or candy corn. Don't like Milky Way any either. Snickers minis, while I like them, aren't the same as full size ones either.
 
the candy I bought for tonight is packs of haribo gold bears, because I rarely get any kids around so I get stuff I like
 
She's giving the admin the weekend to write a term paper explaining how wrong they were and what they'll do to make sure the gibs flow, due Monday
Judge:"By Court Order Trump I'm forcing you to be a King."
Fucking peak lunacy from the bench

It's hard to go wrong with a good chocolate bar. Whenever I decide to treat myself on occasion I struggle to pick because I like almost all of them.

A lot of people are gonna say Candy Corn but I honestly like it as long as it's not by the handful. Mixed in something else I think it's good.

Worst candy is the shitty Mexican candy that's weirdly spicy. Anyone who grew up near the border knows what I'm talking about.
