Committee. They put it on the schedule. It was going to the floor of the house for a vote. They pulled their own bill. The next one was a border bill. A Border Security bill. Securing the border was all they wanted to talk about in the campaign for the last election. They ran it through commute. Scheduled a vote on the house bill and then they yanked that one too. They couldnt pass their own legislation with only their own votes. They couldnt do it. There is this manufactured crisis at the Homeland Security department. They know Homeland Security is due to run out of money at the end of february. They knew that was the case. So far the republicans, even though they are in complete control of congress they have not been able to pass a bill. Right now apparently there is no plan to do that.

Pictures and vowed to respond but stopped short of saying what and when that would be, only that he would do it at a place and time of his manner. But his harshest marks were not about north korea. It was more about sony. Sony is an organization. Im sympathetic to the concerns they have faced. Having said all of that, yes, i think they made a mistake. We cannot have a society in which some dictator someplace can start imposing censorship here in the United States. Because if somebody is able to intimidate folks out of releasing a satirical movie, imagine what they start doing when they see a documentary that they dont like. It is a fair point. And that is pretty blunt. The president of the United States coming out. If you are Sony Pictures, coming out and saying you made a mistake. That is not mincing words.
