Kudos to our Senate Parliamentarian
Elizabeth MacDonough for such a thorough and accuate job ensuring the requirements for a reconciliation bill are met. Any provisions not meeting the requirements need to go through the normal legislative process. That is the way this short cut works folks!!!!

Unbelievable. With Dem support, the senate passes an industry-friendly crypto bill that does nothing about Trump's crypto corruption.
Ignore these Dems' speeches. Watch their votes. They're telling you they don't get it. And then they spam you to say Trump is bad so please donate more money.

To all those who recommended we lay (or kneel) down and play dead, get on board or be left behind.
The message is: crowd large.
Many politicians, administrators, and business leaders, in bowing to Trump, have drawn confidence and comfort from the perceived vibe shift.
Events like this puncture that delusion.

You can stop asking where the mass opposition is. It's everywhere.
People poured out to protest not only what Trump has done—and what they fear he will do next.

Sounds like the takedown is succeeding. A takedown is only fair based on the the fact that theTesla CEO is taking down our government and destroying many people's lives. And we are only 79 days into this administration.
