They are mostly cut from the same cloth - very focus on the immediate petty materialism

Bob Gates is one of the wisest politico in many decades. Our country is at an impasse is b/c of one singular reason and that alone.

Platinum coin means stocks go higher
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
14th amendment not coin
@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
14th amendment will be struck down by the court. Coin will be necessary
@rubecube12 @plutus @johnserwach Not sure how SCOTUS strikes down a Black Letter element of the US Constitution.
They will eventually face the same situation they did when both Jackson and Georgia ignored them, in 1832.
@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus
The issue is whether the debt ceiling law is constitutional. The 14th amendment says the debt shall not be questioned. That just means that the debt has to be paid first before other payments. Not that we have to issue more debt. That other interpretation is ludicrous
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
Yellen already said explicitly "No Coin", while Biden has said he's open to the 14th. We shall see...

@rubecube12 @johnserwach @plutus I'm thinking if they go the platinum coin option ... they ought to make it a quadrillion dollar coin.
@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach
No you do it by enough to extend the debt ceiling for a few months (100 bil) and then tell republicans you can devalue the currency (something they hate more than debt) or you can pass a clean bill. And keep doing until they pass a clean bill
@rubecube12 @plutus @johnserwach IMHO, devaluation, or even the threat thereof, would be a political mistake of historic proportion. It's something any demagogue would love.
@ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 @plutus what about making a shoe ? This shoe is legal tender for all debts public and private. Value, 900 trillion dollars - they could be ruby slippers.
I would support that.
@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @plutus
Get vol to post his shoes first
@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
Can someone please respond to why teabaggers are being so compliant on this debt ceiling vote? There is no way there isn't more bottom-feeding drama or ulterior motive about letting Biden have this win and it is a win.
@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12
That's the thing there's no way McCarthy doesn't have a sense of what they are doing
@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
McCarthy will be forced out of speaker if he gave away too much
@rubecube12 @plutus @johnserwach Will be interesting. He can tell the loons, "Look, I'm in your corner, but notice what we have to work with. You can force me out, but who do you think is next? Someone who thinks you're rubbish."
The people who can take him out don't have the votes to put one of theirs in.
@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach
They put a motion of no confidence. Dems join. He's out. And the then they get more concessions from the next speaker. Just like what happened with Paul Ryan getting elected
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @rubecube12 yeah but they have to get someone that’s electable- no one’s gonna grovel like Kevin did
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
That's up to moderates to figure out. Nobody has the votes without their support
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
They are just after concessions. Moderates have already said they won't make a dem backed (problem solvers) speaker
@rubecube12 @plutus @johnserwach This is the type of problem that could even see an open split in the party.

@plutus @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance so, just spitballing here- how many years until a terrorist group successfully launches a drone strike on a U.S. City ?
@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance
I have a sneaky feelin they may start with Cleveland. Seems like an obvious target.
@johnserwach @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance
There are only 2 things from Cleveland Danny - steamers and dreamers, which one are you?

I can’t believe Yuk didn’t crosspost this over here or at the very least tag me!! You don’t love me anymore, do you ? 😂
@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @plutus
Total disrespect for the decorum of the house. Republicans should be ashamed
@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
My take - I know you will disagree with me but so be it.
@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus
No voting for cuts unless majority of republicans vote for cuts. Just like TARP
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
Let's take the win for Biden and stop AOCing...
@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus
If you vote for cuts and republicans don't vote for cuts. It will be labeled democrat cuts and will be a nuise around Dems next election. These are good cuts. Let gops vote for them
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
You think dem constituents care that much - no bro
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
Every add. Dems voted to cut this program. Dems voted to cut that program. Need republicans to vote for cuts and then hang the cuts around republicans. Run against the cuts and say we will bring these programs back I. Reconciliation
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
Dragging it on will be blamed on dems more - that's how shite works - soccer moms always blame dems first
@plutus @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
Has to pass house. Republicans have majority of house. If they can't get the votes that's on them. A la TARP
@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance
They have a majority of republicans?
@rubecube12 @johnserwach @ForeignSubstance
Why tech is selling off
@ForeignSubstance @plutus @johnserwach
Dems won't vote for it unless republicans vote for it
@johnserwach @ForeignSubstance @plutus
If they don't have the votes McCarthy gets fired. Dems shouldn't tie themselves to these cuts without republican support. They want to have their cake and eat it too. They want to cut and blame Dems. I'd rather McCarthy stay in and tie these cuts around republicans
@ForeignSubstance @johnserwach @plutus
Stupid. Bad strategy. McCarthy gets fired then
@plutus @rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance
Who cares bro? I’m so tired of winning 😂🤣😂
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
Less entitled older people make do with what they have not youngsters who want everything
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
I've seen this play out before. Every advertisment will be about how Dems voted to cut these programs and how Dems are heartless
@plutus @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
Every add will be about how Dems voted to cut 6% of the budget for our troops. Leaving them without body armor
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
You think McCarthy is that dumb that he doesn't think by seeing this through he doesn't have the support to stay on as speaker - plz Danny plz.
Teabaggers are all show
@johnserwach @plutus @ForeignSubstance
Just need 5 republicans to vote to vacate and McCarthy is out
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @johnserwach
He cares about being speaker than passing the debt ceiling by a country mile - no way in hell this hasn't already been pre-planned with everyone.
@rubecube12 @ForeignSubstance @plutus
It’s over, Dan—
For all those whose cares have been our concern, the work goes on, the cause endures, the hope still lives, and the dream shall never die.

Short termism is never a good strategy. The easy win gets traded for the long term loss
