The government spending bill pushed by Speaker Johnson appears to have failed after Elon Musk and President Trump came out against it.
What I would give to be a fly on the wall during this meeting.

I hope La. Johnson survives to live another day.
Not necessarily as Speaker.

This endless spending, taxing, borrowing and printing is destroying the American nation. Politicians are incapable of truly governing. Only solution is the temporary pain of a balanced budget admendment and the line item veto. Trump is walking into a disaster. Congress is incapable of reform.

For many Catholics, they think they can get away with corruption as long as they ingest a wafer and drink a bit of wine from a communal jug.
Nancy Pelosi and Ted Kennedy certainly believed this.

Funding a whole project meant to cancel free speech. FFS!

Ok. I understand the frustration, but we don’t have the senate or presidency yet. Next year, bill will pass easily since we will own everything. We won’t need one democrat vote. Hell we can take out this crap in March!

As in not yet inaugurated? Or what?
To: KC_Conspirator
Yes.
Elon was really mad about that nonsense on X today.
What is Speaker Johnson smoking?
To: SmokingJoe
Congress is simply not going to be able to do the right thing on their own. They’re going to need Trump (and his surrogates) to play a role in encouraging, cajoling or threatening the GOP caucus to follow his lead. In truth, Mike Johnson is probably relieved that Trump and Vance are stepping in.
