Massie on Johnson: "He wants to create a provision of this law that would exempt the very people we're trying to expose -- the men who raped these women. He says, 'We'll make sure they are credible allegations.' Is he calling the survivors we witnessed today un-credible? That's the implication"

Neo-Liberalism, Trickle-down economics, Thatcherism or whatever you call it really has more in common with fundamentalist religion than anything else.

Speaker Johnson has been bragging that Republicans strengthened health care—by making the biggest cut to Medicaid in history!
That’s like saying you strengthened a ship—by throwing the passengers overboard!

@murray.senate.gov speaking the truth.
4 out of 5 people who rely on the ACA tax credits live in states that Trump won.
And over 80 percent of the people who will end up uninsured if these expire are in Trump states!
This is a MAGA health care hike, yet Trump won't lift a finger to save your health care.

The horror of the smell of onions and mustard. How will he ever eat a good hot dog again?
Border Patrol agent Lairmore testifies that he was not injured by the sandwich, but he felt the impact through his ballistic vest.
The sandwich came apart and "kind of exploded" on his chest upon impact, he says.
"I could smell the onions and mustard."
