Some of the GOP members will stand up for measures that are even more wicked. They have the courage of their convictions. The others just have the courage of their convict.
“They want deeper budget cuts, and Republican leaders will have to scramble to find changes that can placate them and more centrist members of the conference.”

I’m sure they won’t change their mind when the dog's attack and deranged mentally inept old guy starts giving you the 5yr old nicknames. I will not touch social security or Medicare/Medicaid that’s what he ran on. Go figure the guy who is a pathological liar would lie. You voted for this. Thank you.
We really need more Springsteen’s who have a huge platform to get his message heard. Anyone with a national stage and see’s what is happening to America right now. And agree with Springsteen’ take. Make it your own to help the people on the streets trying to Cause good trouble. RESIST NOW! It’s here
They aren't doing anything for us. They want deeper cuts to services. They want less time for people to find a job to remain qualified for Medicaid. They want to eliminate all clean energy tax cuts. They aren't stopping the bill out of moral compunction to help us, they want something even worse.
Amazing to think that in the first 100 days of FDR’s first term he got 15 significant bills passed and this Congress can’t get a single significant bill done in more time than that.
Republicans are trying to cut Medicaid to fund tax breaks for corporations (and the Billionaires who own them). These cuts will increase the wealth of a few of our richest citizens and kill thousands of our poorest citizens. Trump’s criminal tax, tariff, and crypto schemes are destroying the USA.

It just seems crazy to me that anyone thinks the problem is that we are spending too much to help the poor while taxing far too much from wealthy people.
Protip here folks: The first dollar you make is far more important to you than the millionth dollar.
Quite a few people did. But the vote reveals that a middle-ground will be reached between the far-right Republicans and the farther-right Republicans, not by negotiating with Democrats.
It is sad that Republicans are split between horribly unnecessary cuts that will hurt millions of Americans and their alternative plan, even more ridiculously harmful cuts that hurt more Americans even more. There is a much better choice they could make, to raise taxes on the billionaires instead.
Do not look at this as a win. Democrats say it is too much and Chip Roy and his ilk say it was not enough. Expect the next budget to cut even more in order to attract the far, far, far right congressmembers.
The “Alien Enemies Act”, pertaining to “invasion” and used during periods of war, make those crimes committed by the US Fed gov and their political and civilian supporters war criminals for their Anti-American, Anti-US Constitutional overall actions.
The should ALL face imprisonment in El Salvador.
Demonstrating faux courage, 5 republicans show performative 'independence'. By now, we all know that they do not really have any independent power or imagination, being fully owned by Dear Leader. I imagine all will be shortly back under control.....

These people are insane. If they hate government so much why do they keep running for office?
