There's a stunning provision tucked into the budget bill that would limit courts' ability to enforce contempt orders, and therefore to uphold the rule of law. This deserves real alarm. If the Senate values the separation of powers, it must remove the provision.

These SpaceX failures are being financed by taxpayer dollars. So far, over $7,000,000,000. So this is actual government waste, unlike the alleged waste at Social Security that DOGE was unable to find.

The Rules Committee meets at 1 AM on Tuesday night/ Wednesday morning to ram through this disastrous bill. Why? Because they don't want you to see them ripping healthcare from millions of Americans. You do not hold a hearing for a bill at 1 AM unless you're completely ashamed of it.
