That person is not incorrect in his assessment of the Senators who would vote to make their constituents suffer food insecurity & ill health all for the benefit of the super wealthy that have zero financial worries to begin with.
Voting to avoid Trump’s very real threat to RINO-label them & end their careers, is not voting w/constituents in mind. They’re voting how Trump demands them to vote.
Trump has a 1%er tax haven in mind leaving constituents holding his $5 trillion added debt + lost medical, food, other life needs.
This is Mu$k’s 2nd run at Trump’s BBB. He backed off earlier when Trump postured cancelling Mu$k’s $800 million/day federal subsidies & contracts. Trump writes it off as anger that Trump ended EV rebates. Earlier Mu$k said, “You can have big, or you can have beautiful, but not both”.
Bernie is too old to still be working. He lost his edge and his mind a while ago. I feel bad but damn, man, you sold out so hard I think your soul might've be repossessed.
The People have had it - and Congress is just ignoring the will of the People. Not smart - let's hope the upcoming peaceful, but powerful protests are even larger - especially in red states!!! 🗽
We're in this situation because in the first place, the leftists attacked Kamala Harris in the last election, calling the Democratic Party elite, establishment, and they helped get fascist Trump elected as they did in 2016.
fiscally irresponsible and profit-cut economic policies of the leftists increase deficits and debts in already dangerous American cities, lead to bankruptcy, and, in the long run, endanger welfare, rights and democracy for citizens.
Russia's agenda and plan is to install radicalism like the far right and the leftist in the United States, weakening liberalism, globalization and democratic solidarity, and expanding the culture of authoritarianism. The leftist theory is not a way to preserve American democracy.
Judges are not elected by the people. Their role is to interpret the laws passed by those who are elected by the people. It is therefore not the judge’s role to listen to the “will of the people.”
“If the policy of the Government upon vital questions affecting the whole people is to be irrevocably fixed by the decisions of the Supreme Court... the people will have ceased to be their own rulers.”
could not agree more! Wish more people had this reaction.
I'd put it farther back. At least to overturning Roe v Wade. That was based on the right to privacy & look how much privacy has been invaded since. Or it started with allowing dark $ into politics. I'm so frustrated. I want to DO something
Everyone’s getting used to that. But the article talks about Roberts being wrong when he says if the public doesn’t like what the court decides, we’re out of luck. He’s wrong and we’re wrong if we think the court knows something we don’t, and we’ve been conditioned to think so.
As I said before, the Supreme Court should be abolished because the Constitution is no longer functioning. It has become corrupt, dishonest. There ought to be term limit of ten years
I wouldn't abolish it. The constitution is still a good document, these people aren't following it.
Totally agree the radicals are corrupt. They should be impeached. There'd be a good case against them.
There should be term limits.
Republicans have been preparing to rewrite the Constitution. See "Convention of the States" for more info.
When our present Constitution was drafted, the states thought the convention was just to amend the Articles of Confederation. Instead, they got a whole new form of government.
We can de-condition ourselves. These corrupt radicals could be - should be impeached and their decisions reversed. Everyone should know these things are possible.
To get these decisions reversed, cases need to be teed up. Republicans enacted scads of anti-abortion bills over a decade in order to get a case to SCOTUS and get Roe reversed.
But first we need another Democratic POTUS and control of Congress. Then change the composition of SCOTUS.
Many Southern white people didn't agree with Brown v. Board of Education. They fought integration, set up segregation academies, and now want state tax money diverted to private schools.
That part of the public didn't like what the court decided, and they still haven't run out of luck.
And worse, they’re making up their own version of the constitution. They’ve sided with Trump almost every time, giving him immunity and allowing him to do all the despicable things he wants.
We're in this situation because in the first place, the leftists attacked Kamala Harris in the last election, calling the Democratic Party elite, establishment, and they helped get fascist Trump elected as they did in 2016.
I guess that I don't know what a leftist is. Sounds like a Democrat to me but I haven't been voting for Democrats for very long. I switched when trump proved to be an idiot in his first term.

If this was a Dem president and Dem controlled Congress doing this I’m guessing shots would’ve been fired by now. I think Trump really wants a civil war 3. More chaos for him.

Well the Congressional Republicans are awful, horrible people. After all they had the Capital police used zip cuffs on disabled protesters, including the elderly in wheelchairs.
They are. These are literally the worst people in the world. These people are worse than Isis, child molesters, serial killers, arsonists. Because they’re all of the above. Many of them are child molesters and now murderers, they’re extremists burning this country to the ground with one bill.
They are Isis only the Christian variety and you can get better them to the Taliban too and no doubt that they are fascists with a love affair for Hitler
Many are awful. They are giving our country to our felon President. This is a nightmare. Thank you to this man shouting the truth as our civilization is ended by Congressional Republicans.
Because John Thune works for the Kremlin and has since 2018. @reed.senate.gov Because this senate ignores the US Constitution to "take care of" its friends.
Ffs stop blaming shit on Russia. OUR system is corrupt, WE allow OUR billionaires to pour unlimited money into our OWN sham elections. “Both sides” are fully bought and paid for and instead of being mad at billionaires you’re content to do Red Scare 2: Electric Boogaloo.
Exactly, they've been dumping money into politics for hundreds of years to carve out cozy little spots in our economy, give the rich a little credit for all their hard work.
How is it, the people vote these individuals inn, get removed from showing their anger, the politicians work for the people, as such, fire the politicians
Convict drump told his cult followers he only wanted their votes and didn't care what happened to them, they laught and voted for criminal and now the world is paying for what they did, including destroying the relationship with Canada
The U.S. once regarded as a blessed nation, clearly no more: robbing its own to give to the rich; to financially support foreign war criminals the likes of Netanyahu to ensue the “business” of constant war!
Murkowski: Under the right circumstances I would switch to independent and caucus with the Democrats. Lady, when are the right circumstances if NOT NOW. Your ship is sailing.
They are to receive a 25% increase in the fed share of medicaid aid the Federal Government, exemption from snap work requirements, tax exemption for fisheries, tax deductions for whaler purchases, 2 year exemption from higher snap contribution, higher medicaid reimbursements. Hawaii got similar deal
I heard the parliamentarian ruled all of that as under the bird rule. Non-reciation. It would take 60 votes to override that ruling by the parliamentarian. So they have to take out all of those Provisions that murkowski supposedly got. She should be a no vote now?
Murkowski is such a useless politician—her time is over. All she does is stand on the fence and then votes in favor of all the horrible things they do to people’s lives.
Even if allowed by the parlimentarian, what good would the carve outs do for Alaska as the lower 48 states who pay for them disintegrate under the effects of this bill?
I didn't want the cheeseburger with the side of dog shit
oh wait I can't just get the burger? I have to eat the dog shit with it?
oh okay sure I'll have the burger with the dog shit
More and more I think when she says she's independent, she's talking about her interpersonal attachment style. Way more plausible than describing her voting history as Independent
That's called cynicism, this is hardly the first time she's done this, she always holds out for a favor for her state but will vote yes to send the rest of the states to hell
He's not wrong. With all the BS they're doing I'm surprised the gallery is still open. Thought they would have closed it to spectators once the people lost control of our country.
We’re running out of times, places and manners. At some point we’re all gonna be marching on these capital steps or to the supreme court to fight for the future of this country. Right now we’re just frogs slowly boiling away in the pot not realizing what we’re being robbed of

Seems to me that now is when we need the next huge massing of people and a march on Washington. It will be so hard to recover from this, maybe impossible. I called Murkowski and Collins today but I kept starting to cry.
Nope, will hit the majority of red states very hard. They are willfully voting against their constituents and believe they can still get re- elected. That’s how Arrogant these F*cks are.. that’s how hateful these bastards are. They literally don’t care about the People. The majority don’t want this

haha George Carlin said "Everyone always says, 'i know they're UP THERE, and he's pleased'! HOW DO WE KNOW they're not DOWN there and if they are, I doubt they're pleased! Chances are they're screaming in uncomprehendible agony"!
I’m so very sorry. My mother is also in a nursing home. Thankfully, we are Canadian, but I absolutely couldn’t imagine the stress you are feeling. I truly hope this bill dies.
There's a nursing home a 5-minute walk from my house. Most of those people have nowhere to go if it closes. Their families can't take care of them for a variety of reasons. This is a poor rural area. They will die if Medicaid is cut.
I have been telling people over and over again dementia patients will be thrown out into the streets or they will be forcefully sent to their children with no plan or no help.
This should have been clear to everyone at the latest when the Republicans, even after the attempted coup on January 6, refused to act as the Constitution required. If there are no more elections, the dems will only write protest notes again.

Roberts' wife gets jobs for former SCOTUS clerks in law firms with business before SCOTUS. The court rules for those firms' clients, allegedly.
