šŸ–• šŸŠ 🤔 A Continuing Round-Up of Trumpian Events šŸ–• šŸŠ 🤔

Looks like some formulations of Sudafed in the UK use xylometazoline which isn’t in available in the US, and I’m not familiar with it. (You can also get Sudafed in pseudoephedrine or phenylephrine formulations just like the US.)

Anyway, today I learned.

More obstruction:

The House needs a police force. Stat!

A pain in the ass sinuses when they removed all the good decongestants when some kitchen chemists managed to turn it into something else.

(As if a real drug operation is going to start with a pallet-load of Neo-Citran from the store.)

They have one, and at least hypothetically have the power to order Paul D. Irving to raise a posse and effect an arrest. It’s not been done since the 1930’s, but it could be. Given Congress’s plenary power over the District of Columbia, the posse would likely consist of the DC Metropolitan Police.

The guy who helped bring the Humvee to the domestic car market had some interesting thoughts about the GOP and environmentalism

No. No. No. The GOP has never been about environmentalism. The one exception was teddy Roosevelt. But he was not a traditional Republican and in fact left the party, partially in frustration over Taft’s reversal of some of his environmental policies.

He invokes Reagan, TR and Lincoln as if those three guys agreed with each other about anything
