Auchincloss on Fox News Sunday: "This economy is inflationary right now...you know what the GOP response is?

Jeffries: "The average Social Security recipient in the US receives about $65 a day in benefits. Elon Musk in his contracts with the federal government gets about $8 million a day. If they were really interested in waste, fraud, and abuse, they would start there ... but they're going after grandma"

A champions league night to remember! We may have got a bit lucky on the last play but credit to the team for being relentless enough to even get back into the game (away from home and in the rain).
