What is brilliant about the government giving hospitals money to stay open instead of giving people who qualify money for healthcare that they give to the hospitals (and other rural healthcare providers like doctors and clinics) when they need healthcare? |
Omg. Republicans were going to pay $85 million to transfer the space shuttle from the Smithsonian where visitors can see it for free to a non-profit in Texas. Where presumably they would pay to see it. Why do republicans hate America so much?

Ted Cruz wants it. He asked for it and they tried to give it to him. Simple as that. |
Republicans plan to waste billions by forcing the USPS to sell off brand new EV mail trucks just because they are “green”. You can’t believe the stupidity.

There is no market for slightly used USPS trucks. This is so stupid and performative, and it saves almost nothing. |
Worse. It costs millions because they have to buy or refurbished new gas powered trucks, while auctioning the EVs for pennies on the dollar. |
They are also going to make if even more difficult to ret justice if you are wronged by the government.

Looks like the museum they want to transfer it to charges $30 admission. So Republicans want to spend $85 mn to give the shuttle to a museum in Texas that will charge admission. Sounds typical of Republican math. |
Democrats keep winning challenges and striking parts of the bill.

Looks like we are getting unregulated AI States can’t do anything about it |
the Parlimentarian isn't a democrat. Let's be honest about what is happening...the Senate Parlimentarian is trying to ensure that the bill complies bith with senate rules and the law. |
What could go wrong? /s |
Democrats are bringing these challenges. Non-partisan Parliamentarian is ruling on those challenges. Democrats are winning on many of them. Republicans have said they will abide by parliamentarian in order to preserve filibuster. |
Sounds typical of Republican grift. |
