To get around the law on national emergencies, the Republican-controlled House of Representatives declares that the next 171 days will not add up to even one calendar day

Remember when the Obamacare provisions in March 2010 were deemed to have passed when they hadn't?

Remember how the Big Ugly Bill which passed last summer under reconciliation rules deemed that the Trump tax cuts of 2017 which had had a cost in 2017 no longer had a cost in 2025?

Remember how your mother told you "Saying doesn't make it so?"

That's how all this works now, including son saying to mom, "Mom, I'm a girl now". 

Our rotten society views reality as the enemy.
