Duffy: "She wants to take people off the road and she's taxing people to do it, raising money for the subway system in New York. But then, to put people in the subway -- the subway is dirty! There's violence. There's criminals. It's not safe ... By the way, I like freedom. Let me drive my car."

The Lilac-breasted Roller is always dressed for spring. This bird mates for life, with courtship rituals that include swooping, diving, and rolling through the air. Lilac-breasted Rollers are so at home in the sky that they also breed in flight!

The anger Democrats are getting in this moment is a product of them, magically, always being just a few votes short.
When Dems controlled the House, Senate, and White House: “we don’t have the votes!”
When they hold the political leverage over the GOP: “we can’t do anything!”
