BREAKING: Ron Johnson reportedly has enough votes to block Trump’s “big beautiful bill” including Mitch McConnell & Lindsey Graham.
Republicans are in disarray.

Hahaha.
So they vote for Trillions of Woke Spending under Biden, but are putting their foot down under Trump? Right.
I can post lists of the BLM and Antifa giveaways in the 2022 Omnibus that got 68 Senate Votes with many Republicans rushing to pass it.
Math doesn’t care about discomfort and it doesn’t care if you like your awareness. Math doesn’t debate.
There is a solution and there’s only one solution. You will have to accept monumental upheaval and the destruction of society as you know it, particularly multi-generational misery for your children and their children, and as that process unfolds it will be much like math, and that it won’t really care that you don’t like hearing about it what life is like for your grandchildren.
You will have to declare national debt default, you will have to defund all courts that would hear lawsuits by bondholders who get screwed (the vast majority of the national debt is owed domestically so a default guts your own citizens, about which compound interest does not care), you’ll have to essentially shut down the government and that doesn’t mean half measures. That means reduce social security benefits payments to a level just below the payroll tax input, and then cut it in further in half from there on the presumption that payrolls will substantially disappear in the upheaval that will take place.
You can expect to have troops in the streets mowing down people who riot in whatever city happens to be handy. But that problem will be solved by compound interest also in that the military will get defunded.
About 1/3 of the way through all of this, the FED will start creating money. The inflation will not be concealable and fundamentally the only thing that will prevent foreign military invasion is the misery and devastation will be such that no one will want to invade and deal with it.
Estimated casualties from the upheaval? How about a modest 30% of the US population, concentrated on billionaires and any institution of higher learning. Those are the obvious targets.
Moscow Mitch and Flamsey Grahamnesty.
Either the Republicans fall in line or many should be prepared to get “primaried”.
Once upon a time you could have set him up on a morality charge with a teenage boy.
These days the GOPe would celebrate that.
He is a god to South Carolina voters. They worship him.
Nah, your estimates are far too optimistic.
100% of the human race will perish.
No, wait, 1000%.
No, no, no, 100000000%.
Math is made out of numbers, you know, and numbers can change.
But you just keep on doomposting. You seem to love the misery.
The only thing I need to know about those two buzzards is that they felt down DRT!
Brian Krassenstein also reported that Kamala would win.
ROFL
True!
I think this might be left-wing agitprop by a known left-wing anti-Trump provocateur.
I think Graham's gone on record supporting Trump's legislative agenda and needs his endorsement in his 2026 reelection. He'd be stupid to pick a fight now over this.
Maybe this Krassenstein guy is just trying to stir up muck for the media news cycle tomorrow, given that all the A-list personalities will be off for Memorial Day?

There are some MAGA accounts reporting it too
(prior to this gentleman’s post)
And the ‘Leading Report’ outlet.
I’m not sure if he’s making it up or if he’s just repeating something he’s seen and passing it on.
We'll know soon enough when Graham responds.

The Republican JackArses better be careful that they don’t accidentally levy the largest tax increase on Americans by letting the Trump Tax Cut Expire.
Rand clarified today:
@RandPaul
“The DOGE cuts can only happen when POTUS sends Congress a “rescission” bill. By law this can only occur when POTUS sends Congress a bill and we can approve the cuts by simple majority. So far, POTUS has not sent Congress a “rescission” bill. In this particular case Congress is beholden to a directive from POTUS.”
More importantly, he needs to mean it.
are any of you surprised? what is surprising is the constant republican voter who can always be counted on to bitch and do nothing.
We seem to be back to wallowing in emotion. Math doesn’t care about folks who object to and are upset about a future it will define. Why would you think it cares?
One is at liberty to do one’s own math about compounding. Find new numbers. Show that $40T does not happen when you add $3T to $37T. Or if that is some sort of anxiety generator to be fled, show how food travels to grocery store shelves when truckers are not paid because dollars went to service debt, not society operations. Then take the big step for your desired peace of mind. Show how not having food to eat has no impact on life.
