Elon threatening to fund primary challengers along with Trump and the numerous people calling their congress reps did it. We'll see what's in this one, but 116 pages is a heckuva lot easier to read.

So about one page more in a sitting than the departing president then.

Why did House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries, the top Democrat in the chamber, call the proposal "laughable?"

The new proposal is laughable, got crushed even by 40 Repugs, and now the Dems have the control of the process in Congress. And Americans hate Repugs for hurting hardworking families.

Beautiful man, love politics

I dunno, man.
Maybe if you slash 90% of the original bipartisan paperwork it's such a massive alteration some would simply call it "laughable".

Here's my take: the federal deficit is a huge problem. But have a bunch of newbie hacks waltz in and cut 90% is probably many times more reckless.

Trump is a huge risk to blow the economy up. He's a joke.

Personally, I'm looking forward to going to work each day as an essential government employee knowing that I will probably get paid for it someday.

Not.

OK, I'll put you down as favoring furloughs for air traffic controllers and border patrol agents.

How dare they cut childhood cancer research out of the budget for 3 months! I can't believe it, those specific 3 months would have cured cancer!

I'm looking forward to Presidents Musk and Trump working to primary 47 GOP Congresspeople and about 40 GOP senators. I've made a note to stock up on popcorn.

There's no need to believe everything that comes out of Hakeem Jeffries' mouth.

Maybe unpopular opinion:

Members of Congress should get higher salaries. The fact that they don't makes them more easily captured by wealthy donors.

There's also no need to believe everything that gets posted by your 15 or 20 twitter Gods.
