United States of Anarchy

Welcome to the United States of Anarchy .

Health - care legislation languishes without presidential leadership . The Senate fails to pass a measure crafted by Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, fails to pass an outright repeal and even fails to pass a proposal to go back to the drawing board .

Huge majorities in Congress , declining to bless President Trump ’ s love affair with Vladimir Putin ’ s regime, vote for new sanctions against Russian officials; legislation passes the Senate , 98 to 2 , and the House, 419 to 3 . The veto- proof rebuke to the president seizes a foreign- policy function from an unreliable commander in chief .
As the deadline looms to avoid a default on U . S . debt, Susan Collins (R-Maine ), a Senate committee chairman , is heard on a hot mic saying she ’ s “ worried ” about the president ’ s stability and calling his administration’ s handling of spending matters “ just incredibly irresponsible. ” She says she doubts Trump even knows how the budget process works .
Trump, baffling and alarming allies, goes on the attack against his attorney general , Jeff Sessions , who was an outspoken supporter of Trump’ s candidacy. Trump clearly wants Sessions to resign , but Sessions is ignoring him . Sessions ’ s former colleagues in the Senate back him over his boss — and they hope Trump isn ’ t crazy enough to start a crisis by firing Sessions and then special prosecutor Robert Mueller .

Meanwhile , the president continues to sow chaos with perpetual distractions. He fires off a tweet Wednesday morning announcing he is banning transgender people from serving in the military . The tweet apparently catches even the Pentagon by surprise and draws rebukes from pro - military Republicans who argue that all able -bodied, patriotic Americans should be allowed to serve .

And the ship of state sails on , rudderless . This is what it might look like if there were no president at all: stuff happens , but nothing gets done . Actually, the majority in Congress has great difficulty even doing nothing.
McConnell and his team scheduled a vote on repealing Obamacare for 11 :30 a . m . Wednesday — a proposal that was , by all accounts, destined for failure . But when the appointed hour came , Sen . Mike Enzi ( R- Wyo. ), sponsor of the repeal measure , requested a quorum call — a Senate procedure to stall for time .

Sen. Ron Wyden ( D- Ore . ) rose . “ Mr . President , I think there was some confusion —” he began .
But Enzi objected , Wyden was forbidden to speak , and the quorum call resumed — for 43 silent minutes.

Senators arrived for the scheduled pre- lunch vote. Sen . Bob Corker (R-Tenn. ) went to the clerk ’ s table to give a thumbs up and Sen. Heidi Heitkamp ( D- N . D. ) went to give a thumbs down , and both were told the same thing : “ We ’ re not voting. ” Senators milled about the chamber and huddled in clusters while aides and Senate leaders came and went to resolve the impasse, an arcane dispute about points of order and procedures for amendments .
Finally, Enzi spoke : The vote would be postponed for four more hours .

The Sisyphean act , all for a proposal that was going nowhere, encapsulated the whole Dada enterprise of health - care legislation . McConnell, thwarted in his quest to round up votes for the House- passed version of Trumpcare , or for his own Trumpcare alternative , or even for a repeal of Obamacare without a replacement, decided instead to risk everything on a “ motion to proceed ” — a parliamentary maneuver that allows debate to begin .

McConnell won that vote Tuesday by the thinnest possible margin , a 50 - 50 tie, broken by Vice President Pence . But then McConnell was the proverbial dog that caught the car . Hours later , he brought up his health - care legislation , and it went down, 43 to 57 , losing nine of his fellow Republicans and falling 17 votes short of what he needed .

On Wednesday came Enzi ’ s repeal proposal , which wouldn ’ t have taken effect for two years to buy lawmakers more time to draft an Obamacare replacement. After the four- hour delay , it went down , 45 to 55 , with seven Republicans defecting . Senators then voted down , on party lines , a Democratic proposal to send the whole thing back to committee .

Republicans , after complaining for years that they had been jammed by Democrats on the passage of Obamacare , brought their alternative forward in a secretive, rushed , Republican - only process without hearings . Far from giving lawmakers time to “ read the bill, ” GOP Senate leaders had them vote to begin debate without knowing which legislation they would be debating .

Soon comes a vote on “ skinny repeal , ” which , if it became law , would sabotage Obamacare by eliminating individual and employer requirements to provide health insurance . But it won ’ t become law ; it would merely become an excuse for more negotiations that would pit Senate GOP moderates against House GOP conservatives .

So it goes when a president doesn't act like one : all fury , no function

So how does the car changes the fact that pmb and the govnors were in the several pictures, also if that car was the last car parked, cldnt they have been dropped off, som 1 pls explain wat the dude is trying to say

In a recession o?! When pple are screaming for forex! buying of foreign products has been drastically reduced too!

Imagine when imports now revert to those 2014 levels

She truly was struggling! Stress n hunger makes u age!

Is it all downhill here? Can Trump's rule of chaos, truly be brought to an end?

Can a man with no care for convention be displaced?

ivolt:
My comparison is apt.

This isn't about choice, the woman referenced by the OP had a choice!.
The problem is that you are justifying an evil act because everybody is
allegedly a perpetrator.

A wrongdoing is not defined by the perpetrator or the victim but
by the very act itself.

Hmmm....

Comparison apt ke? Comparing a fresh babe to a world travelled looter? Wehdone Sir

Over d years, we've had several instances of ladies escaping d clutches of islam?! Janet Jackson, a case in point.

If someone like u had to work in dubai, it would be a crime for u to run foul their laws. Would u now term it being forced? They same way u'll expect a visitor to adhere to ur laws, in ur home.

U dont have to support a view point to respect it!?

ivolt:
Is the bold an excuse to support barbarity ?
"All" Nigerian politicians embezzle state funds so let us stop complaining about it.

Nigerian politicians, have a choice. Babies have no say in which religion they're birthed!

Both situations are incomparable! U can decide not to become a politician! Infact, many of us decided not to be a politician, because of d violence involved, can a baby decide not to be given birth into a war zone?

Pls shift from my cyberspace. Lying altaquiya Muslim. Educate yourself.

What manner of creature are u?!

Can u just sdfu! I was born a xtian n presently dont practice any form of religious worship. But, u cant just be objective! Ur hate as a supposed xtian isnt surprising, hypocrisy is inbedded in all.

Ur Jesus walked with d samaritans, but u're here hating?

What happened to, loving ur neighbour as ur self? What happened to turning d right cheek? I dont even think u understand what ur religion entails, talkless of understanding a rival religion.

Our very own, Aremu Obasanjo, taking potshots at Trump n Americans;


Trump has come so that America can be humbled – Obasanjo

ON July 22, 2017 1:04 PM / IN News ,
Politics / BY Tony / Comments

Americans are humans too like Africans in choosing Donald Trump as president, former Nigerian president, Olusegun Obasanjo said in a rare reflection that appeared to have mocked the US election last November.
‘‘The fact that America can produce a Trump in this day and age, it means Americans are as human as we are,’‘ he was quoted to have said.
The octogenarian who ruled Nigeria in 1976-79– first as a military ruler and then a civilian leader in 1999-2007 said he was happy about the turnout of events in the U.S.
‘‘I am not justifying what African leaders are doing. If our leaders are doing wrong, we should say that they are doing wrong. Trump has come so that America can be humbled, and we can also learn that lesson,’‘ he added.
Obasanjo’s comment was made during an event earlier this week at the French Embassy in Pretoria, the News24 portal reports.
The event in question was the launch of the French version of a book titled ‘Making Africa Work.’ The book described as ‘‘A trenchant analysis of the continent economic faultlines and a handbook of best practices to redress them,’‘ was authored by Greg Mills, Jeffrey Herbst, Olusegun Obasanjo and Dickie Davis.
According to him, even though Africa still needed foreign direct investment, it was time for the continent to show the rest of the world that it can take charge of its own future. ‘‘Nobody can do it for us, and it is all of us, and if we do it, we will get it right,’‘ he added.

By d time 2019 comes around, a lot of wailers would rather not vote, than vote in pdp

We have been married 4 - 5 years with so many ups n down but by the God's grace we are gaining balance now. But my husband just got a habit of always pressing his phone, while eating, talking evening wake up at midnight just to operate phone.

This habit has limited communication, sex, in fact anything at all couples can do. He goes to office in the morning, comes back by 6 or 7 :oo but all he will do for the rest of the day is phone.

l have talked to him several times about it but no change, I don't want to suspect anything but am getting tired of this union pls advice a sister tnx.

I'm an addict too!

What u need to do? Develop interests in what he spends time doing n chat him up on it. If u're lucky n its just news updates he follows, then u can pick ur phone too, read n share stories. Creates a connection.

If na dating sites, ........ OYO u dey(though, if u show enough interest, he will have to reduce any infidelity.)

slimghost:
I am not confused bro. Go and read Mourinho's lamentations about this summer transfer. It's a known fact that Ed sucks at negotiations, I am surprised you are claiming ignorant of that fact.

Chelsea went in, got Bakayoko and left, Shitty went in , got Silva and left. The clown has been stuck on Fabinho for sometime now.
Let me paint a picture of a good negotiator for you. Remember how Gil and SAF signed RVP from a direct rival? even though Arsenal never wanted him to move to a rival club.
The same thing is playing out with Matic now but I can bet my networth that the clown Ed can never negotiate that transfer successfully.
I am sure Mourinho knows how skillless he is at negotiations , that's why he gave him 4 different options for the 4 positions.
Yet this clown will end up overpaying for The Croatia Ikedia soon.
I rest my case please.

If u had truly listened to Mou's lamentations, u will read where he said; man u is expected to pay over d odds for a player?! Ed was quite successful last season! Why not give him d benefit of doubt this season?!

raumdeuter:
Mourinho that was sacked at his last 2 jobs didnt come to prove himself?

Both of them are in the same league, same city similar clubs. and Pep finished aead of Mourinho

WHy are you scared of sticking your neck out that Mourinho will finish ahead? Do I sense some fear in you, No wonder you are scurrying all over the internet looking for youtube clips all over.

This season 2 of them are in 2 major cups CL and League and 1 minor FA cup

CL, League and FA cup in that order are the measure for both of them

What u dont realise is, should Mou not get another job in his life time, he remains a legend, esp in d epl!

Pep is a legend too, but unfortunately, a flop in d epl, for now!

Mou is a serial winner, in europe n any league! U can take that to any bank!

Amberon11:
How can anyone make statements like "are they complaining"?

Seriously? How do you expect them to complain publicly when it will definitely cost them their lives?

There was a girl named Dina Ali, few months ago she tried escaping from Saudi to Australia but was forcefully sent back against her will. Apparently she was tired of the slavery of islam and wanted out. Today, no one knows whether she's dead or alive.

U're one, who is yet to attain any degree of enlightenment!

All children are forced into d religion of their parents!? Most are maltreated n discriminated against, whenever they try to leave!?

I can imagine ur reaction, if n when ur kid/s decide, ur religion doesnt speak to their inner self!

peteregwu:
Then why the killings of Christians in the north all the time?

There are killings all over d world! Some men enjoy killing other men, for profit, for power or to satisfy their blood lusts. To win acolytes, they put on d toga of religion, revolution etc

If u get to India, the muslims too, are being killed, all d time!

Amberon11:
We know about the crusades already and they were a resistance to your Islamic jihadists who were slaughtering and forcefully converting people to Islam.

Your lies won't work here.

F!

Twist it anywhichway u want, d truth remains d truth! Bloody hypocrites! U can conveniently forget about d inquisition too!


Through d ages, both religions have been forcibly propagating their beliefs! Thats what happens, when men claim to have d ears of God!

"You got tired of Samsung copying Apple's iPhone". So Apple don't copy Samsung's Galaxy or other phones?

Keyone is a great phone and I hope you bought the new one sent by TCL / BlackBerry cos they previous bathes seems to have a problem with the material used.

You surely gonna enjoy the phone. I love the idea of fingerprint on the spacebar and the keyboard is outta this world.

Btw op, you can't just take few pictures and copy paste the specs online then label this thread "unboxing". Do a better job sir

Note 8 or Note FE be fast. I need to retire this S6 Edge

I really dont think, op bought anything! Check out d shadows, where he held d phone!? No shadows of his hand, related to d light source!

A lot of wealthy biz men will pay to have ur sleep pattern!?

As long as u dont experience any side effects(fatigue, dizziness, easily exhausted), instead of wasting years looking for unnecessary solutions, why not put ur insomnia to good use?!

Get into educational pursuits(msc, parttime, phd)

Check out online stuffs that can fetch money but need time

And, if u're already rich enough n educated enough, start feeding ur mind with written texts(articles, novels, documentries etc)

Put it to use n stop wasting time n money, seeking useless solutions!
