First of all, I wouldn’t spend $100,000 if I was the richest person on the planet. Second of all, a morally corrupt imbecile buying chapstick from her lapdog? How’s this ethical? What kind of deals or favors will he done with such a transaction?

They aren’t focused on inflation or the debt ceiling. They’re focused on this.

Representative McGovern referenced this in a speech on the floor just a minute ago. He was challenging Kevin McCarthy to live on SNAP benefits for one week. He was describing how out of touch the Republicans are with actual recipients of benefits

They use those topics to attack their opponents, but when they get into power, they never address any of the underlying economic problems in any meaningful way.

We need to stop even pretending that Conservatives want to govern in any way. They want to rule. They want to do whatever they want that keeps them in power, permanently.

They have no interest in meeting the needs of the American people.
