Bend Mayor Sally Russell commented that she doesn’t support ICE, saying, “I am very worried for everyone in our community, and especially our Latin community. ICE is a Federal agency and frustratingly we have no power over the Executive Branch of our country.”

 

So, she thinks local governments should have power over a federal agency. Not exactly a MENSA member, Mayor Russell. By the way Sally, you do have that power. It’s called a vote.

 

But but muh illegals…..

Only One Minute For AOC

 

Business Insider reported on Wednesday that Ocasio-Cortez will only be given sixty seconds to speak at the DNC, a big snub to the congresswoman and the socialist wing of the party. AOC will record her comments to the DNC, which will then be broadcast as part of the virtual event.

 

Reacting to the story, AOC posted a short poem entitled “God’s Minute” from Dr Benjamin E Mays, a civil rights leader.

 

“I only have a minute. Sixty seconds in it. Forced upon me, I did not choose it, But I know that I must use it,” the tweet reads. “Give account if I abuse it. Suffer if I lose it. Only a tiny little minute, But eternity is in it.”

 

“I only have a minute.

Sixty seconds in it.

Forced upon me, I did not choose it,

But I know that I must use it.

Give account if I abuse it.

Suffer, if I lose it.

 

Only a tiny little minute,

But eternity is in it.”

 

– Dr. Benjamin E. Mays

The Senate left Washington on Thursday and won’t return until September, according to Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.).

 

Speaking on the Senate floor on Thursday, McConnell said that he wants the Senate to act on a widely anticipated COVID-19 relief package in the near future.

 

“We will have our regular pro forma meetings through the end of the state work period. If the speaker of the House and the Minority Leader of the Senate decide to finally let another package move forward for workers and for families, it would take bipartisan consent to meet for legislative business sooner than scheduled,” McConnell stated.

 

He added that if a deal is met, senators would receive at least 24 hours notice before any “unanticipated votes” on a pandemic relief deal. The “state work period” that he referred to ends on Sept. 8.
