@jaunty

It has been a great one, so far

But this Republican Congress will be starting their death dance o n democracy soon

So, things may change

@jaunty

A lot of it dies in the Senate, just like they did to us

The scary part is that all spending bills MUST originate in the House. It’s the purse strings they may be willing to lynch democracy with

If they crash our economy for their agenda, they just might trigger there Pre-Rapture apocalyptic civil war they are itching for

The best hope we have is the Garland comes in the drag 25 of them off to prison and flips the house long enough to get the spending and debt bills through

@AndersonArtwork @jaunty --We've seen this story before for the GOP. Going back to when Gingrich was Speaker, the GOP has tried to shut down the government during budget negotiations. When they have, it lasts a week or 2, with the most affected being seniors who rely on Social Security, Medicare & Medicaid. If the GOP wants to shut down the government, it won't work. The aftermath only helps the Dems in the 2024 election cycle & further damages the GOP brand.

@s3friedman This time, however, the Speaker of the House is being held hostage by the β€œFreedom” Caucus and can be replaced by someone even more fanatical and inflexible. Real damage to the economy will result. And Biden will be blamed for supporting β€œsocialism.” @AndersonArtwork

It would have helped if the definition and functioning of democratic socialism was correctly taught and understood. Instead, we have a nation that embraces the services provided by socialism without appreciating that's what it is. And we have both sides of the aisle deriding democratic socialism and making it sound like communism.
Our ignorance will kill us all one day.
