    Pay attention.

    Can’t pass a regressive tax bill if the government shuts down.

    Democrats aren’t powerless. They’re complicit. The BBB was only possible because they made it possible.

      Ok. You said “But you just watched”, so I thought you were talking about the most recent catastrophic legislation, which is why I asked which bill you were talking about. Schumer’s a cowardly piece of shit and could have used the only chance dems had or will have, because the other cowardly pieces of shit would have followed his lead and voted against it if he would have.
