Thanks to a Republican vote to stop California from setting its own auto emissions, Democrats can challenge virtually any Trump administration action, and eat up time on the Senate floor.

You know, it's not even about hitting the ball. Hitting the ball is great and all, but that's not fair to the other team. What if they weren't ready? This is about sportsmanship! It's about being the bigger person! And most importantly, it's about the players. Chuckie needs a new glove, and nothing inspires other people to buy girl-scout cookies more than knowing they can make a difference to help the runner-up win the next championship tournament.
