"House GOP pulls budget resolution, signaling Republicans lack votes"
“Their effort, however, appears to have failed, an embarrassing development for Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.) and his leadership team as they look to enact #Trump ’s domestic policy priorities.”
3/ And it passed. Sigh.
@GottaLaff I was stupid to even think this wouldn't pass...
@GottaLaff
O fuck.

Fear is a horrible way to lead.
Enabling that fear is worse.
OMG!

"Remember that this is the beginning.
This sends the cuts back to the committees, then they will have to vote on it again.
THEN they have to reconcile it with the Senate bill. Then vote AGAIN.
We may have lost this battle, but they haven't won the fucking war yet.
LFG!"
@GottaLaff Kinda surprised they're still bothering with such antiquated notions as "Congress" passing a "budget" that "controls" spending...
@GottaLaff jfc … well, shit is gonna get real very fast for those MFers who voted in 47 and all his lackeys in Congress. #FAFO #LeopardsAteMyFace
Trump et al are diabolical. I'm wondering if having actually passed this bill will, alongside of all the horrific and unnecessary pain it will cause so many innocent people - be the kick in the face that wakes up and moves to action the willful idiots who believed they would be immune from it all because they were members of the cult.
The passage indicates the role that billionaire donors now play in the legislative & budgeting process.
That kind of goose-stepping conformity is only possible when people are being strong-armed by someone.
@Npars01 @GottaLaff I have said for years the Russian Mob has them by the balls. The fear set in early and deep. They are not afraid of Trump. McConnell always looked terrified to me, even in early 2017.
Trump is also terrified.
@GottaLaff Conservative politicians don't care about debt. Voters and most of politicians don't understand economy. This is what they really want.
@GottaLaff Honestly, I thought people were being overly optimistic about the possibility that enough Republicans would go against Trump. I'm surprised even one did. When he says jump, they say how high. And this country is going to have to get a lot more fucked up and people get a lot angrier before that can change.
