Reality: Republicans control Congress and could haul Elon in for a hearing and file court briefings to contest DOGE
Alternatively, 2 house Republicans and 20 Senate Republicans could put an end to this crisis by joining their Democratic colleagues, enforce the 14th amendment & kick Trump out

Some GOP members feel helpless as DOGE cuts hit.
A growing number of congressional Republicans are desperately trying to back-channel with White House officials as Trump’s DOGE ramps up its slash-and-burn firings of federal workers.

Ditto here - as long as Republicans are a majority in both chambers of Congress and use zero of their formal power this means nothing
But I would be shocked if those checks ever get cut, and I think you only get a few months out of empty promises that are so easy to verify
$5,000 per adult is over $1 trillion dollars
In both cases I would say that Nancy Pelosi sent the checks, and Mike Johnson holds the gavel
Great! That would lift millions out of poverty and be the one good thing he did
I don’t think Congressional Dems should vote for it w/o taxes on the rich to pay for it
