Well, Congress won't do anything, and these two (Johnson & Thune) have telegraphed inaction and posturing as support. Thune especially telegraphs that he's more out to lunch than a casual.
It's horrifically amazing how it's rara messaging to the base despite every further step into the abyss.

There are 100k students in med school each year. Room and board is about 100k per year. For 10b a year, med school could be free. We would see a wholesale change in the profession, career paths and the cost of care.

Republican plans to cap student borrowing could shatter an everyday profession
One GOP senator said anyone paying more than $100K to go to med school is "making a huge mistake." But the median cost of attending one is more than double that for the class of 2025.

Trump will soon speak to the nation about the unprovoked war crime of unilateral war that he just illegally ordered.
Every word out of his mouth will be a lie.
He will lie about history, about intel, about Israel, and about his own interests.
He will lie to ALL our faces.

The point of firing IRS employees is so the rich and cheat on their taxes and get away with it.
After mass firings, the IRS will be forced to close audits of wealthy taxpayers.
Audits of rich individuals and corporations will soon be closed — without action — due to a lack of personnel to complete them.
Millions upon millions in revenue will be lost.
