I’m proud of the Dems too, for calling R’s out specifically. Turns out, Rethuglicans do not like being called Trump’s little bitches, so…make a meme, use that phrase often, bc that’s what they ARE. And Murkowsky, who could have stopped this horror, is just plain a bad person.

Oh I know!! He brought me to my knees it was so good!! I can’t wait till maga Mike Johnson goes back to the Keebler elf farm, and Hakeem Jeffries becomes speaker of the house. He’s more than earned it!!

He did amazing work. Forcing these people to listen to just a fraction of the lives they are about to destroy, exposing their rotten hearts to America, and throwing sand in the gears to give us time to call the SOBs to remind them of the bloodbath coming in the midterms. Future House Speaker.

Love you Texas Paul, but I’m not proud of anyone for just talking for 8 hours. When the Dems stood around smiling and applauding his speech while we watched the most inhumane and disastrous bill get passed that tells me they lost the message. There was NOTHING to celebrate.

Yet republicans didn’t do a god damn thing to save us from this bill. They 100% all voted for it. 100% of the democrats voted AGAINST the bill. In the end all the democrats could do was use their single vote. It’s the republicans that don’t give a fuck about what their voters want.

Now that the House has passed the bill. Can Blue states withhold their own federal dollars to use in their states? Government doesn’t want to help people. Let each state do its best. I’d like my Blue state $$$ to help my fellow citizens here.

that long speech helped the GOP and they are bragging about it because it allowed Johnson to poll and repoll the vote and T more time to pressure Reps to make the vote. So Jeffries helped them quite a bit. Not sure that was the intent, but the reality is what it is.
