Summary
The House GOP’s new rules package aims to weaken minority party influence while advancing a pro-corporate agenda.
Key provisions include shielding the House speaker from bipartisan accountability and fast-tracking 12 GOP bills without allowing amendments, including measures to sanction the International Criminal Court (ICC) and protect fracking.
Democrats, led by Rep. Jim McGovern (D-Mass.), criticized the package for ignoring economic and social issues like inflation and housing while prioritizing tax cuts for billionaires.
Republicans plan to offset these costs by slashing social programs, sparking warnings of further congressional dysfunction.
Thankfully, Biden is at least using his last hours in office to do something useful, like send Israel another $8bn in weapons.
Hey, he’s also giving Liz Cheney a medal…
from wikipedia https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Liz_Cheney
“Regarded as a leading ideological neoconservative[7][8][9] in the Bush–Cheney tradition as well as representative of the Republican establishment,[10] Cheney is known for her pro-business stances and hawkish foreign policy views.[11][12][13] She was once considered one of the leaders of the Republican Party’s neoconservative wing,[7] and was critical of the foreign policy of the Donald Trump administration while consistently voting in favor of Trump’s overall agenda”
So the Democratic party is giving medals to neocons who voted in favor of Trumps policies.
You couldnt make this stuff up. Stuff like this is why Bidens approval was too low to run and Harris got her tail kicked. Their idiot incompetence and hubris is why we will all now suffer.
I’m only surprised it took this long for them to give republicans medals. Hell biden/Kamala were running on bush era policies and ideas while also saying we needed to go farther right…
But yeah it’s totally all on the voters.
And this is the person Harris touted as a win to the people Cheney hurt the most… And said she would be a good cabinet level position.
