On the one hand, they - Kelly, Carlson, etc - definitely should blame themselves but on the other hand, I’m glad they’re saying this stuff out loud and finally being somewhat self-critical.
Thomas Massie declared:
“I came here to make sure our Republic doesn’t die by unanimous consent in an empty chamber.”
History will remember him for it.
But Washington is no longer salvageable.
The Republic has fallen to foreign influence and corporate power.
Our healthcare system is collapsing.
Gas prices have gone up 60% this year.
We're in a deadly war with Iran.
Yet Trump is worried he won't get a billion dollars for his ballroom.
Do you think he's a little bit out of touch with the needs of the American people?
Murray: Is it true that people making under $184,000 pay a 12.4% Social Security tax rate?
Dahl: Yes
Murray: And the rate for someone making $1,000,000?
Dahl: 2.2%
Murray: So, a 12.4% tax for people making less than $184,000, but 2.2% for a millionaire or .0002% for billionaires.
Actually, different salaries should only affect how luxurious your life is, not your food quality or ability to afford rent. If you work 40 hours at any job, your income should be enough to live in the town you work in. Thinking otherwise is an abysmal indicator of your humanity.

Unprecedented kleptocracy.
Call me radical, but I don’t think we should be throwing millions of Americans off health care while we bail out a ruthless dictator whose family is worth $300 billion.
@SlimeNotSoShady@rushicrypto "Capitalism" is suppose decide through the free market. But the market is heavily skewed towards employers because they can afford to bribe politicians. They get bailed out when they fail, large tax breaks for no reason, all while we foot the bill for the underpaid employees ebt.
