The Highway Trust Fund must be fixed with a multi-billion dollar investment. If the United States Senate allows infrastructure to go unacknowledged another ten years, we will be risking American families as well as our national security. #RebuildTheRoads

In addition to our roads, we NEED a federal investment in our water infrastructure. Texas levees, dams, & flood controls desperately need to be modernized, which will create 1000s of jobs! (1/2)

Alas for the bright cup! Alas for the mailed warrior!
Alas for the splendour of the prince!

Democrats are only going after the Attorney General because he has found their corruption. It's a pure political move! Caroline Simmone and Ibrahim Simpson must testify before Congress over Democrat corruption, or face impeachment!

Speaker Carrie Simone
@MadamSpeaker

Moving to hold the Attorney General in contempt is a regrettable but necessary move to uphold the rule of law and the Constitution. Michael Jones spited the investigatory powers of Congress; made vulgar, unevidenced allusions; and has conducted himself in the manner of a partisan, unbecoming of the DOJ's long nonpartisan tradition. The office of Attorney General of the United States deserves greater integrity from its holder.

Speaker Caroline Simone
Washington, District of Columbia
Friday 8th May, 2020


Caroline was focusing on campaign matters for these next few weeks, as she entrusted the House to her lieutenants and so far, there had been no hitch in leaving the House in Phillip Crawford's capable hands. She had no reason to doubt that Nez or Ziegler would meet the challenge when it came their turn too. After the success of her fundraiser earlier in the week with bigshots and helping rake in something for the warchest along with Mayor Baines, Govenor Long, and Vice President Diehl, she wanted to get her engagement up. She'd been long aware, of course, that the Minority Leader in the House - her rival for the House - was active with Twitter town halls, and so she had arranged for an Ask Me Anything on Reddit to match that energy. To meet younger voters, be frank with them, and engage online.

Settling in the spacious living room at her New Mexico Avenue residence (opposite the Walgreens), she set her laptop up on the coffee table, set her coffee down on the coaster beside it, and got settled in to start. The question, of course, was whether anyone would actually want to ask questions of the Speaker of the House of Representatives on r/AMA. Or whether that was too cringe, or something.

Finally, an actual question.

Caroline typed out her reply:
I share your disappointment that the previous relief bill was pared back so heavily by Leader Warrick and the White House, and few of us in the Democrats are surprised that the previous relief effort failed to meet the moment. Bob Warrick talked the talk about abandoning economic conservatism, but refused to walk the walk.

Democrats are imminently going to be launching a new effort to get relief through Congress, particularly substantial individual stimulus, and you can expect it to be past the House well before the end of next week.

Hello! A bipartisan bill (the Vohoffsky-Atang bill) to legalize marijuana did pass both the House and Senate in this Congress, but unfortunately, it was pocket vetoed by President Wolf during the summer recess of 2019.

It is very likely that we will proceed with a fresh push to end the disastrous War on Drugs in the next Congress, hopefully with a Democrat as President.

Caroline blinks a little as she looks at the name. This wasn't the actual Governor of Nebraska, surely? Then again, Jack Chambers was hardly known for being the most... gentle of political communicators. Getting up, she heads over to the drinks cabinet, going to pull out a little bottle of whiskey. Bringing it over to the table, she decants a shot of it into her coffee, before setting it back. One sip of coffee and settling back down on the couch, she goes to answer.

You'll have to ask the President, the Trade Representative, and the Secretary of State, Governor. We're still yet to hear back from them as to what the overarching US strategy on China is going to be.

Governor Chambers was a bit depressed and angry. His crowning achievement, balancing Nebraska’s budget, was history. His goal of trying to end the trade war, also gone. There was no way anyone in Washington would listen to reconciliation. The Representative from the state to the North likely represented the thought process in most Republican circles: protectionism and trade wars. There were so many people to blame, so many people who wronged him, it seemed like the entire world was aligned against him. Despite this, he attempted to pass one piece of important legislation: The Second Amendment sanctuary laws. That would give him plenty of political capital and mark him as a true Republican. Chambers worked on trying to convince moderate Republicans that the law was fully within Nebraska’s rights, that if California could refuse to enforce immigration law, then Nebraska certainly could refuse to enforce unconstitutional gun bans. Chambers wanted the law worded in a way that it would declare that Nebraska would not enforce any bans on a specific class of weapons that did not exist before January 1st, 2020. He also wanted the law worded to refuse to enforce bans on any size of magazine and refusing to enforce laws requiring trigger locks. The Governor hoped to have the bill signed very soon. It would give him substantial capital with the national Republican Party.

Washington, District of Columbia

Caroline was focusing on campaign matters for these next few weeks, as she entrusted the House to her lieutenants and so far, there had been no hitch in leaving the House in Phillip Crawford's capable hands. She had no reason to doubt that Nez or Ziegler would meet the challenge when it came their turn too. After the success of her fundraiser earlier in the week with bigshots and helping rake in something for the warchest along with Mayor Baines, Govenor Long, and Vice President Diehl, she wanted to get her engagement up. She'd been long aware, of course, that the Minority Leader in the House - her rival for the House - was active with Twitter town halls, and so she had arranged for an Ask Me Anything on Reddit to match that energy. To meet younger voters, be frank with them, and engage online.

Settling in the spacious living room at her New Mexico Avenue residence (opposite the Walgreens), she set her laptop up on the coffee table, set her coffee down on the coaster beside it, and got settled in to start. The question, of course, was whether anyone would actually want to ask questions of the Speaker of the House of Representatives on r/AMA. Or whether that was too cringe, or something.

Listen here New Yorker I've got just one thing to tell ya:

I own a musket for home defense, since that's what the founding fathers intended. Four ruffians break into my house. "What the devil?" As I grab my powdered wig and Kentucky rifle. Blow a golf ball sized hole through the first man, he's dead on the spot. Draw my pistol on the second man, miss him entirely because it's smoothbore and nails the neighbors dog. I have to resort to the cannon mounted at the top of the stairs loaded with grape shot, "Tally ho lads" the grape shot shreds two men in the blast, the sound and extra shrapnel set off car alarms. Fix bayonet and charge the last terrified rapscallion. He Bleeds out waiting on the police to arrive since triangular bayonet wounds are impossible to stitch up. Just as the founding fathers intended.

NOW I ASK YOU, WILL YOU RETAIN MY GOD-GIVEN RIGHT TO SHOOT UP THE DAMN COMMIES AT MY DOOR?!?!?!?!?!?!?!!?!?!

Resistance is the only path to freedom under tyranny. Power to the people and down with those who would subvert their will. In the name of justice, we must fight.

What are you’re plans for foreign policy in the coming months?


Areas where the Congress acts in particular on foreign policy are limited, however we're eager to move forward with taking sanctions action against Myanmar for the Rohingya genocide, and to finalize bills that were drafted in response to the ongoing crackdown in Hong Kong. Democrats believe the United States must continue to lead and set the example on the world stage.

Why haven't you done anything to get China's import controls lifted?


Caroline blinks a little as she looks at the name. This wasn't the actual Governor of Nebraska, surely? Then again, Jack Chambers was hardly known for being the most... gentle of political communicators. Getting up, she heads over to the drinks cabinet, going to pull out a little bottle of whiskey. Bringing it over to the table, she decants a shot of it into her coffee, before setting it back. One sip of coffee and settling back down on the couch, she goes to answer.

You'll have to ask the President, the Trade Representative, and the Secretary of State, Governor. We're still yet to hear back from them as to what the overarching US strategy on China is going to be.

Hey Madame Speaker, my brother is disabled, and is unable to type. He has a very important question, and we recorded a video here, to ask you!
