The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: No smocking guns. - Page 1060 - Politics and Economics

Diane Feinstein and Tulsi Gabbard are D cosponsors. Can't make this **** up. It's as if they decided on the basis of just not being hated enough on 2p2 Politics.

Feinstein was already hostile to gaming that's not a surprise to me. I think she's retiring after her current term is up, and she won't be missed.

Looking around I see this posted on a paywalled website looking like it belongs to a gambling trade group or something:

Quote:

Gambling lobbyists in Washington, D.C. are abuzz with speculation that U.S. Attorney General Jeff Sessions is on the verge of announcing plans to overturn the 2011 legal opinion which cleared states to regulate internet gambling.

Ian Prior, principal deputy director of public affairs for the U.S. Department of Justice, on Friday declined to comment on rumors that Sessions intends to say as early as this week that he disagrees with the controversial 2011 opinion and will reverse it.

Sorry, I used the link provided by Namath12, which is apparently old. Thought it was strange that they listed a current senator in my state as a representative.

HAHAHHAHAAHAHAHAHAHA

Reminder that both Sklanskys and other admins were all, and continue to be pro Trump. Most posted how he would be better for poker. 2p2 is run by morons.

I think Mason started some stupid ass pro Trump thread in NVG or something, then deleted posts he didn't like (or maybe his own stupid posts?), this after GOP passed the Frist debacle and everyone here has spent a decade laughing at him.

Bill Frist might be personally responsible for taking millions of Sklansky dollars out of Mason's pocket, but Mason sure has his priorities straight when he makes a thread about why you shouldn't vote for Obama in 2008 because the damn Kenyan Muslim wants him to get healthcare for his employees.

Seriously wtf? It's a referendum, not an election. It's like calling Britain up to congratulate them on a new restaurant regulation AND international observers said the referendum was completely dirty.

A few web guys, an editor (specifically, an enthusiastic golden retriever who's been trained to operate a rotating lottery drum containing rubber stamps of random punctuation marks, the phrase "Do you see why?" and a typesetting instruction to "use the big cards!" and stamp manuscripts with whatever stamp he pulls out of the drum), maybe some back-office/accounting guys, but who else? Are they running an actual printing press or something?

Yea he just deleted the posts that disagreed with him and after dozens (maybe hundreds?) he gave up and locked the thread.

Not to mention how incredibly selfish POTUS is. We shouldn't ever have to question whether or not the President would blow up the world to avoid an FBI investigation closing in on him, but for some ungodly reason...here we are.

Sen. Dianne Feinstein (D., Calif.) said that she was "not there" on single-payer health care at a town hall on Monday.

The San Francisco town hall booed Feinstein when she said that she doesn't currently support the socialized system that is strongly supported by former Democratic presidential primary candidate Sen. Bernie Sanders (I., Vt.).

...

If single-payer health care is going to mean the complete takeover by the government of all health care, I am not there," Feinstein said.

Feinstein's response drew loud boos from the audience, with some in the audience holding up signs that read, "Retire Feinstein."

Manson and the Sklansky's are an embarrassment to poker and they should be rightfully shunned.

I absolutely cannot wait to read the idiotic Sklansky post about how this is all good for poker.
