Every Democrat should just stand up and declare, “I am a Republican and immune from investigation.”

I’ve read similar that it is per subpoena, but I haven’t found an article with a more detailed analysis yet.

Now technically in the article I linked Speaker Johnson says he’ll hold a vote to remove that clause, but even if he’s being genuine I’m guessing it won’t pass in the Senate or will be vetoed by Trump.

The whole this just kicking someone (the United States) while they’re down. Longest shutdown. SNAP benefits halted. ACA subsidies expired. Hemp outlawed. Senator payouts… And this current “victory” only lasts until the end of January. Just long enough for the wounds to start healing before we all get kicked down again.

Also,

According to the bill text, senators may seek up to $500,000 in statutory damages if their phone records are subpoenaed without their knowledge.

The language is inside one of the three full-year spending bills that the Senate included in its government funding package.

“Any Senator whose Senate data, or the Senate data of whose Senate office, has been acquired, subpoenaed, searched, accessed, or disclosed in violation of this section may bring a civil action against the United States if the violation was committed by an officer, employee, or agent of the United States or of any Federal department or agency,” the bill reads.

So 8 Senators who had their phone records subpoenaed as part of the Jan 6 investigation get a $500,000+ payout.

So I think Catholics use a particular brand of Jeez-it that is the wafer that you’re thinking of. Everyone else just uses whatever (like in this post).

The same is also true for the wine. Growing up we had grape juice instead of wine and honestly the bread and grape juice combo was pretty good. Like bread is bread, which is almost always a great choice, but I’ve never been a big fan of grape juice. But a little dip of grape juice in bread… Not bad.

I also don’t know how strict any of this really is. Like would a grape jelly sandwich made with Wonder Bread count as long as you gave it the proper blessing? I feel like it would.

Sadly it’s possible she signs the petition requiring a vote, then votes against it.

The little info (i) box on Billboards website actually cites their data, “The week’s most popular downloaded songs, ranked by sales data as compiled by Luminate.” Which I assume refers to luminatedata.com

Sadly their data (the numbers specifically) aren’t publicly available.

I think it’s worth clarifying that it’s #1 on Billboard’s Country Digital Song Sales. That’s a specific category.

According to https://tasteofcountry.com/breaking-rust-explained-ai-country-song in order to reach number one would only take ~3,000 purchases.

That’s a shockingly low number, so if anyone can confirm that or has better numbers, I’d love to know.

But last time I brought a digital song, they cost $1. So for a couple thousand dollars any song could be number one in this category.

If I were an AI company swimming in money, that’s a drop in the bucket for some free publicity.
