Lex Anteinternet: And here we go.

And here we go.

Yeah, how I feel about how things are going, and yes, I'm repeating the poster.

A classic by Butter Bob.

🚨 House Republicans just voted unanimously to repeal the Democrats' army of 87,000 IRS agents 🚨

This was our very first act of the new Congress, because government should work for you, not against you.

Promises made. Promises kept.

Good for you. Now that you’re loose, how about voting for something that might actually pass congress?

There's going to be a lot of this feet stamping nonsense this Congressional session.

Why, I wonder, is the party of fiscal responsibility encouraging tax irresponsibility.

Welcome to the 2023 GOP House of Representatives Hootenanny.

Addendum:

CSPAN

NOTE: C-SPAN cameras are no longer in the House chamber. We have resumed using the feed from House/government-operated cameras.

Lex Anteinternet?

This blog has been around since 2009. In the very first post, we asked the question: "What the heck is this blog about?"

Our answer to the question was: "The intent of this blog is to try to explore and learn a few things about the practice of law prior to the current era. That is, prior to the internet, prior to easy roads, and the like. How did it work, how regional was it, how did lawyers perceive their roles, and how were they perceived?"

We also noted: "Part of the reason for this, quite frankly, has something to do with minor research for a very slow moving book."

All of this is still true, but the focus of the blog has changed somewhat. It now focuses on the era from 1890 to 1920 in general, rather than on the law and lawyers specifically, although that may be far from obvious. It's also become the location where we comment on anything we feel moved to comment on.

We hope you'll feel moved to comment as well. While we moderate every comment, so as to weed out Spam, we greatly appreciate the comments where they are offered, and hope to see more.

Thank you for stopping in!
