Republican lawmakers are pushing back against sweeping cuts to the federal government launched by President Donald Trump and Elon Musk, as their downsizing crusade begins to hit GOP constituents.
A growing number of GOP lawmakers are trying to intervene with the Trump administration and are weighing legislation to circumvent the changes. But with the Department of Government Efficiency and the Office of Management and Budget moving at a rapid clip and flouting federal law to carve up the government, the lawmakers face monumental challenges in getting the White House to spare their constituents from the ax.
It’s an awkward position for GOP lawmakers who have otherwise voiced support for DOGE.
awwww. you’re getting exactly what you signed-up for.
lay in the shit you helped spread… or hang the traitors.
your choice. only one of them is the correct one, but you won’t pick that one, will you. because some black single mother and their lgbtq neighbor kid are getting hit, too–that makes it all ‘ok’ and worth it, right?
As the old saying goes, a conservative would gladly eat a pile of shit if they knew a liberal had to smell their breath.
It’s the only power they have: upsetting other people. So they spend their lives clinging to that power and doing anything and everything to hurt others to be able to get a perverse joy of “controlling” someone else’s emotions. Like everything with conservatives, everything, everything, everything is through the lens of power. They speak no other language.
This is an old saying?
I’ve heard it for 15 years , at least. In internet-time, that’s deadly old.
I’ve never heard it. We must travel in different internet circles.
At least a decade old at this point
it at least dates back to the dark days of newt, if not nixon and goldwater.
