DEVOS IS ONE VOTE FROM GOING DOWN https://twitter.com/frankthorp/status/826870458066821121 Current vote tally likely 50-50, as two GOP senators have said they'll vote no and I believe Manchin is also a no. She's on the edge.

Counterpoint: It's UC Berkeley. They do this kind of thing and will continue to do this kind of thing, because they're UC Berkeley. I don't mean that as an insult, I mean that in a literal historical perspective, it's in textbooks and everything. I just listened to the Austrailian PM talk and he's citing US officials, Sean Spicer, and Donald Trump as truthful sources. Man, the world is going to be hosed when they realize that all of those sources are total liars.

WAR CRIME SYNDICAT posted:Spicer really is loving Baghdad Bob Jesus Christ https://twitter.com/AlexanderEmmons/status/827234544860401664 Yep. As for McCain, he's a Senior Statesman. So for people that don't know that much about the American system, like very angry Austrailians, an Important And Influential United States Senator can smooth over some fuckups. That's also kind of why random senators and representatives will sometimes go to other countries to boost their own standing. Sometimes it goes wrong, like Tulsi Gabbard visiting Syria and getting played like a fiddle by Assad. Most times, it's just a way to improve relations and it's very, very hard to actually make things worse.

The government can't figure out how many visaholders are affected by the executive order.
