NEUTRINOS: The Smallest and Most Baffling Particles in the Universe

How screwed up the House of Representatives must be.  They tried, and   could not even impeach Homeland Security Secretary Alejandro Mayorkas.   Why did they even try?  Well, Donald Trump told them to do so. Speaker Mike Johnson doesn't want aid for Ukraine.  So he also yesterday tried to sneak though only aid for Israel.  That vote, too, failed to pass.  He said he would next week still attempt to impeach Mayorkas.  In the Senate, thanks to Donald Trump, it looks like the immigration part is holding back their aid package.   Senate President Chuck Schumer  now plans to bring to a vote only the Israel/Ukraine/Taiwan financial portion.

Korea  1433 #3      Australia  1160 #4      New Zealand  891 #5       Taiwan  881 #6       Singapore  859 #8      Italy  625 #12    France  481 The  Inflation Reduction Act of 2022  negotiated by Senators Joe Manchin and Chuck Schumer is a pale version of the bullish $3+ trillion original package, and $2+ trillion Democrat wish-list legislation, that nevertheless
