As discussed on this week's #SistersInLaw podcast, I believe the 14th A bars Trump from holding office ever again and think that @judgeluttig adds a great argument as to why it does.
Kasich just went on MSBC and said it was the Democrats’ job to help Republicans pick their leader:
ZERO Republicans voted for Nancy Pelosi for Speaker of the House in 2007.
ZERO Republicans voted for her in 2021.
It would be extremely helpful if the media remembered this. 🙄
Michael Bloomberg says the tax bill will increase the national debt by $1.7 trillion.
Under the Byrd rule, if the tax bill increases the debt by more than $1.5 trillion, then 60 votes are needed for passage.
Will @SenSchumer & other Senators ask for a new, accurate score?
The last few days a tax bill is in Congress are when those who have paid to play get to play. If the media is flooded with sex scandals and voters are distracted it's even easier to slip in billion dollar tax goodies. This bill needs to be put on hold NOW.
A week from today, hours after delivering a massive, unfunded handout to corporations sitting on $2.3 trillion in cash, GOP might shut down the government because providing care for low-income kids would bankrupt us.
