Trump has enough Democrats standing against him. What we need are just a few more Republicans taking a stand.
Perhaps the "big beautiful bill" will finally split the House, now that the Senate has made it even worse.
As for other appropriations, I wish I knew.
Fascists won't stand against fuhrer. Unless Zhukov will come really close to
Berlin Washington I would say.
The first revolt is against the supreme tyranny of theology, of the phantom of God. As long as we have a master in heaven, we will be slaves on earth.

Billionaires bought the GOP and now GOP just stuck the American people with the bill. $3 trillion in extra debt to cut social services, education and healthcare to provide the rich with a tax cut.
You get the gov you vote for.
teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

They can repent at leisure. I won't be singing any blues for them.

Pretty sure anyone here who did or could vote didn't vote for the chump.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

I'm sick of people drawing false equivalencies between the party that uses facts and science and the literal rapist worshiping fascists that are the GOP. Democrats are objectively right.

So we have learned that the Democrats are evil because they want to give people healthcare which is bad because that is big government, big pharma, vaccines are poison, diseases don't actually exist, God can heal you anyway, diseases are created by Dr. Fauci in China, it's also Communism, and is used to spoil men who then don't work but just play video games.
Did I miss anything?
