House GOP loonies introduce bill to abolish the IRS.

Total waste of time. It will never ever ever happen. But, it makes the crazies happy. This will be the new normal in the US House of Representatives.

The truth be known…probably zero legislation is going to get passed — due to opposition with the Senate and President.

They have to spend their time doing something.

…besides a few good investigations.

Hopefully, a budget will also be crafted. Albeit, it will never be used either

Well, either that or because the legislation proposed by the House will be ridiculous....like the topic of the OP. Designed to get attention and votes from the loony GOP base, not to actually accomplish anything.

You're correct about the investigations though. It's all we will hear about for the next two years. Just like the last two. I hear the republicans want to investigate the investigation of trump. When the dems take the house back in 2024, I guess we'll have an investigation of the investigation of the investigation. Total waste of time.

I am finding I’m agreeing with Mike quite often today… don’t know if that will disturb him…

This is a total waste of time.

We will have a tax collector regardless of name or who.

The fight should be how much and how, not whether or not we tax folks.

There is virtually zero that the House, the Senate, and the President can agree upon.

Might as well have a bit of fun.

Why in the fuck are they getting paid for 2 years? In the private sector their asses would get booted in jig time.

Paying them to accomplish nothing for two years is better than paying them to insert us into another Vietnam/ Iraq/ Somalia.

That is what they are getting paid for — to keep the Democrats from doing stupid crap. Nothing they could support can get passed the (D)s. Thus, no legislation.

So the FAA is operating on 30 year equipment that has a single fail point allowing one person to ground Domestic Flight, and this stupidity is what the House does.

Of course, the Faction, like Dr. Easter, finds this level of obstruction and worthlessness is funny.

Hopefully, the Senate will act to update.

This House is not responsible for this failure. They are responsible to fix it.
