In other news, newly elected (albeit not yet crowned!) King Donald has, once again, fucked over America while out of office but controlling his sycophantic, scared little puppies!!
Here is HIS Speaker of the House having his cake and eating it, too, in a real world example of “No, seriously, you’re just not seeing the alternate facts here!”
Speaker Mike Johnson just told reporters that he and House Republicans were as committed as ever to cutting the size of the federal government, even though the bill on the floor would raise the debt ceiling for another two years. (Something Republicans fight tooth and nail to stop Dems from EVER doing, but which would give Trump carte blanche to enact more tax cuts for the wealthy and spend, spend, spend in his first term without having to worry about the ballooning debt they say they care about!!)
The extension, Johnson insisted, “in no way reflects any lack of enthusiasm on our part to get about those serious cuts for the American people.” He did not take any questions.
Shocked! Shocked, I say!
And, supposedly, Biden is still President, although I have no physical or photographic evidence to suggest it is true!
