This is by far the most independence that Cornhead has shown toward any of the Felon's terrible policies or proposals

I believe he means the felon's "settlement" which Blanche said was now "dead"

Unfortunately, he has yet to follow it up by voting against any of the Felon's policies or proposals. I am not holding my breath expecting him to suddenly develop some bravery in this case.

(29,138 posts)4. The supposed 'settlement '
Was twofold i believe
first it created the $1776 fund , and it absolved the Pisswig and family from IRS audits forever
the settlement is why the Pisswig attempted to dismiss his lawsuit against the IRS for releasing his taxes .
As Judge Williams ruled that, there was NO case to begin with ( the Pisswig cannot sue himself) so any settlement is moot since there was no valid suit to begin with .
