BREAKING: Ron Johnson reportedly has enough votes to block Trump’s “big beautiful bill” including Mitch McConnell & Lindsey Graham.
Republicans are in disarray.
(Excerpt) Read more at x.com ...
The usuals suspects.
But united with some others. That means the bill is dead [for now]
really? conman and linda?
i wanted DOGE spending cuts. now i hope the gope spending doesn’t go through the roof.
You might get your wish on that. Maybe a good thing this bill fails
The Rand Paul/Ron Johnson wing is just angling for more spending cuts.
The “ BBB “ will pass by the Fourth of July.
They don’t’ mind spending money on anything except what Trump wants to do.
Who is the one reporting this?
I do believe elements of the GOP want to protect illegal immigration.
And maybe the drug cartels as well.
Linda just wants more face time on the Sunday Morning Fake News shows.
This guy with nearly a million followers is reporting it
Only a claim which is why I put “CLAIM”.
You guys are not focused on the right thing.
The Senate proposals have far LESS deficit increase than the House has specified (increase of $4T vs Senate $2T).
The Senate’s version will be more conservative than the House, if you call conservatism lower debt or deficits.
The big determinant is, of course, the Trump tax cuts, which the Senate has approved of, though not in their entirety.
People heads up. This is math. It’s not politics or particular politicians. It’s math. When one says there is no solution, that doesn’t mean no easy solution. It means no solution.
>The “ BBB “ will pass by the Fourth of July.
You might be right but there will need to be adjustments
If it is true, then Bitch and Linda need to be excoriated.
Call them into the Oval Office, televised, and hit them with a video and “explain yourself”
These rotten, corrupt sh*t heads need to be exposed and beaten down.
NO MORE MR NICE GUY!!!
idk. hope your right. the title of your post contains two of the biggest spenders of our tax money whoever lived.
In a Trump vs McConnell fight, its never “over” for Trump at any time.
McConnell is half dead and Trump has plenty of stamina to just keep going..
They are holding out for some grift.
Always research a claim’s author:
Brian Krassenstein is an American left-of-center political-commentary entrepreneur associated with the “#Resistance” movement, a critic of former President Donald Trump, and the brother of Edward “Ed” Krassenstein, with whom he often collaborates. Ed Krassenstein has embraced the 86-47 movement.
Background
Brian Krassenstein is the brother of Ed Krassenstein; together the pair are often referred to as Krassenstein brothers or the Krassensteins. The frequently collaborate on business ventures, writing, and social-media activity. 1 2
Federal Raid
In 2003, Krassenstein and his brother began running a series of websites, including TalkGold and MoneyMakerGroup, in which users exchanged investment advice. On these two websites, the brothers sold ads for investment schemes, which were dubbed “high-yield investment programs.” Additionally, the brothers managed companies that provided server space to these programs, hosted their websites, facilitated their email newsletters, and provided monitoring services. 1
In late 2016, agents from the Department of Justice raided Krassenstein’s residence in Fort Myers, Florida, seizing his devices, financial records, and other material in connection with an investigation into wire fraud. According to a complaint filed by Homeland Security special agent Michael Adams, Krassenstein and his brother were paid sums of money by individuals engaged in illegal activities and there was reasonable cause to believe that the two had conspired to commit fraud. In their defense, the brothers asserted that they simply sold advertising space to the scammers in question, denied wrongdoing, and claimed that they did not know that the latter were involved in illegal activity. 1
According to a jointly authored statement by Krassenstein and his brother, federal prosecutors initially told them that they could be held liable for the criminal conduct of their advertisers and urged them to cooperate with the government to help prove its case against the advertisers. However, according to the same statement, the brothers declined to cooperate, citing fears that they would be killed in retaliation. Ultimately, the federal government did not charge either Krassenstein or his brother with any crimes, but rather seized a total of $450,000 from the two. 1 3
Question: Why are you citing members of the #Resistance group and proponents of the 86-47 movement?
So? Are you saying that there aren't 1 million leftists in America?
