I was wondering the same thing.
Maybe the people who were scrubbing out the covid after the
last administration forgot to turn the desk around
If they could put these tears in a can, I would buy one and put
that sucker on my mantle... This is so sweat!
Lloyd Austin
For the Australian linguist and literary scholar, see Lloyd James Austin.

United States Secretary of Defense
The secretary of defense (SecDef) is the leader and chief executive officer of the United States Department of Defense, the executive department of the Armed Forces of the U.S.[5][6][7] The secretary of defense's position of command and authority over the U.S. military is second only to that of the president.

It looks almost like it is a double desk. Like someone would sit on the other side.
This shit is infuriating.
What if they do? Will they upset the sensibilities of the communities that send thousands of their citizens to the capital to kill legislators?
People are hurting now. They don’t have 6 weeks for politicians to play this fucking game.
Poverty has many side effects.
Unity means absolving those folks of accountability. Dems might feed into it too. And niggas on that wait & see shit again. 
The drawers are not on the wrong side. It's a dual sided desk.
It's similar to this desk:

They make about $7,500 every 2 weeks before taxes, so her next pay
check will be for $2,500 before taxes; and if she does this again, she
will not be able to cover the fine from one paycheck as it will be at
$10, 000. If she continues to flout the rule, they will reprimand her ass;
and if she continues to resist, they will throw her out- if this does not
happen by itself given questions about how her mother knew the layout
of the capitol building well enough to be able to direct the other rioters
using a megaphone

Lauren Boebert Faces $5,000 Fine after Setting off Capitol Metal Detector: Report
http://a.msn.com/01/en-us/BB1cZKT7?ocid=sf
Pro-gun Republican lawmaker Lauren Boebert reportedly set off a metal detector and refused to comply with US Capitol Police Thursday, leaving her facing a possible $5,000 fine.

Boebert's meteoric rise into politics began in September 2019 when she confronted US Democratic presidential candidate Beto ORourke at a campaign rally and stated "Hell no, youre not!" to his proposed mandatory buyback of both AR-15 and AK-47 semi-automatic weapons.
The newly elected Colorado congresswoman, an ardent support of former President Donald Trump who campaigned on a conservative platform that included fierce opposition to gun control, was said to have ignored a new requirement for representatives and senators to pass through a scanner inside the Capitol building.
Journalist Hugo Lovell tweeted: "House Republican Lauren Boebert now sets off the metal detector and refuses to comply with US Capitol Police, waking into the chamber [sic].
"USCP not making a big deal but $5,000 fine comes out of member's pay."
Newsweek contacted Boebert's team for comment.
Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced earlier this month that lawmakers would be fined if they refused to go through metal detectors to enter the House chamber after an angry mob of extremists supporting Trump's false claims that the presidential election was "stolen" stormed the building.
A first offense will result in $5,000 deducted from a lawmaker's Congressional pay, while a second offense comes with a $10,000 fine.
Several GOP lawmakers have been accused of flouting the new rules, including Boebert.
GOP Representatives Louie Gohmert and Van Taylor from Texas, Steve Stivers from Ohio, Debbie Lesko from Arizona and Larry Bucshon from Indiana were among those who refused to comply with the screening or vocally protested its implementation, NBC News reported.
Although members of Congress and aides are legally allowed to carry weapons on Capitol grounds, House rules prohibit them being taken inside the chamber.
Boebert, owner of Shooters Grill, a restaurant that made headlines for letting staff openly carry weapons as they serve customers, has pushed for congressional staff to be permitted to carry a gun anywhere in the Capitol.
After Pelosi's metal detector measure was announced, Boebert tweeted that lawmakers "were not in need of more metal detectors when we were locked in the Chambers" during the Capitol riots.
On Thursday, she received support from Florida Republican Matt Gaetz, who tweeted: "They're trying to disarm @laurenboebert on the floor of the House of Representatives because, ultimately, they're coming to disarm many, many more."
Boebert responded: "If Members of Congress won't take a stand for our Constitutional rights in DC, you can bet they won't take a stand back at home either."
In a video released by the Colorado congresswoman on 3 January, she was seen chambering a clip for her Glock pistol and placing the gun in a concealed holster underneath her jacket.
Boebert was then shown walking down a city sidewalk, stating that even though she works "in one of the most liberal cities in America, I refuse to give up my rights, especially my Second Amendment rights."

That's not the same desk she has. Hers has handles on it, not the center design.
Might? While people aren’t going to go hard on other white people. They’ll save that energy for the non-whites.Unity means absolving those folks of accountability. Dems might feed into it too. And niggas on that wait & see shit again.
I think this is where we as black people step back and really start to think about our hierarchy of needs.
She’s has a GED. Anything above Walmart wage is cake.
The problem is that McConnell is way more skilled than Schumer at this shit and is playing this pretty well politically unfortunately. Democrats ran on taking "control" of the Senate but a simple majority doesn't really matter as long as the filibuster is in place. Because of the way the GA Senate races were framed, most people assume the Democrats have the "power" and are not doing anything when in reality you need 60 votes to end debate and get to a vote on anything. McConnell knows this and is exploiting it to his advantage.
Like I said in another thread, McConnell is trying to fracture the Democrats because only the progressive elements of the caucus want to "go nuclear" and get rid of the filibuster. Everyone knows that they will eventually agree to the rules that were put in place in 2001 but in the meantime, McConnell is basically exposing Schumer and also doing his best to frustrate/fracture progressives.
I honestly believe that if we had Leader Reid instead of Schumer, we would see the nuclear option used to get some of this stuff through. I am not convinced Schumer has it in him so we will see...
These old weak Dems have to go asap. They will never fucking learn. We want the type of strenght and action Republicans take but for good. Not more of this kumbaya fuck shit.
You and I are of two different minds..Keep it moving! I don't entertain the bullshit...
Yeah there are several desk that are used in various locations

Mitch is pretty much asking AOC to run.
I think they do understand and that is why as of right now they're are saying fuck you to Mitch. They seem to be in a different spirit after going the through the Mitch and Trump years of flat out hypocrisy and complete partisanship. Biden doesn't seem to have any fucks to give because I don't think he even wants a second term and will more than likely (we shall see) drop his load in the first term. Especially if dems maintain and/or expand control of congress. Trump and McConnell were a curse and probably will now be a blessing.
It is crazy because that is the only thing that progressives and the GOP would both love.
I don't think they forgot at all and that is why they are ready to get to work and pass legislation that Mitch the bitch held up all these years.
People also forget how they rammed through the tax cut bill without a super majority.

You need 60 votes unless the nuclear option is used. Then you just need a simple majority.
Damn!!!
