    This is just another step down “I honestly just can’t comprehend the stupidity of what is going on in the American government”-alley…

    Like… what do they even expect to come of this? Why are they even interested in doing it? Is it just to stir up shit?

      They are trying to break the government beyond all repair. At that point they’ll say it’s the Democrats that broke it.

      Their cult members will swallow the lie hook line and sinker, and continue to keep them in power. (Side note, this will be made easier by gutting all election oversight as part of the package.)

      Meanwhile, all that tax money we paid into Social Security, SNAP, Medicaid and Medicare, Unemployment insurance… basically any program meant to help people, will flow directly into billionaire’s pockets.
