They could still pull a rabbit out of their hat, but basically they (Trump and Republicans) are saying “just pass this bill and we promise we’ll cut spending in September.”
Except by then they’ll be ramping up for midterms. Congress only cares about one thing: getting reelected, and nobody cuts budgets right before elections.
As I’ve said ad nauseam Congress IS the problem and they no longer care if you know because THEY know you’ll forget in 6 months.
But I’m resigned to it now. Let em print and spend, the whole DOGE thing won’t amount to anything as Congress will never cut spending.
* I suspect we’ll see something on one of the juicy bright shiny issues with no longer term benefits in the coming days to change the narrative, like JFK or even some Epstein arrests. (Nothing on the real puppet masters)
I’m at the point where I’m fine regardless of what happens. Fuck em

Here's an example of how the press convinces uninformed people that conservatives are more violent than liberals:
"...an anonymous agent has publicly warned that the domestic counter-terrorism strategy could switch from inquiries against the hyper-violent far right to leftwing protest movements."
Just little seeds planted into unformed minds. Burning down cities doesn't qualify as violence to them, and opposing the left's violence is "persecution".
Fears mount over Kash Patel’s use of FBI to persecute leftwing protest groups

Job Openings Rise as Labor Market Shows Strength and Stability
U.S. job openings rose unexpectedly in January, underscoring a resilient labor market that continues to defy pessimistic forecasts about the impact of President Donald Trump’s economic policies.
Job openings climbed to 7.74 million in January, up from a revised 7.51 million in December, according to data released Tuesday by the Labor Department’s Job Openings and Labor Turnover Survey (JOLTS). The increase surpassed economists’ expectations of 7.6 million openings.
The increase in openings was driven primarily by gains in the real estate, construction, retail, manufacturing, and financial sectors, suggesting continued strength in key areas of the economy. Despite widespread media speculation about negative economic impacts from the Trump administration’s tariff policies and federal workforce reductions, the labor market data indicate ongoing stability.

It appears that Kash has turned over records related to J6 pipe bombs to House Judiciary committee per request by Jim Jordan a few weeks ago.

Wow, imagine that — actual records on the J6 pipe bombs finally making their way to the House Judiciary, and not just buried under "ongoing investigation" excuses.
Props to Kash for doing what the DOJ and FBI should have done years ago. Funny how the "most secure election ever" crowd suddenly goes silent when real evidence starts coming out.
Wonder how long before the media pretends this never happened or spins it as a "conspiracy theory" — as usual. Think Jim Jordan will get answers, or will they stonewall until 2026?
....
The identity of the J6 pipe bomber needs to be announced immediately. Many know the identity- just publicly announce it!
...
Let's see how that goes. Maybe they can make a difference. The House of Representatives have not exactly covered themselves in glory these past few years.
I am looking for Kash and Bondi to make a difference, though.

Still no word whether anyone tried to stop them… but then as mentioned, Trumps team doesn’t have operational control of the government

Yes!
They did it. They approved Biden’s budget through Sept, funding USIAD, and 2 Trillion more debt.
Great job guys!

WASHINGTON (AP) — President Donald Trump shopped for a new Tesla on the White House driveway on Tuesday, selecting a shiny red sedan to show his support for Elon Musk ‘s electric vehicle company as it faces blowback because of his work to advance the president’s political agenda and downsize the federal government.
