Speaker Mike Johnson and Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries had a bipartisan spending deal worked out a couple of days ago so the government wouldn't shut down.

In the blink of an eye, Elon Musk and Demented Donald attacked the MAGATs, so they scuttled the bill.

The Deluded One even demanded that the debt ceiling be suspended for two years so he didn't have to deal with it.

Those fuckwits needed a two-thirds majority to pass the bill since they didn't follow proper procedures.

How in the hell was that ever going to be possible?

Trump has not been sworn in yet, and it's already a clown car circus freak show.

I hate Xitter now, but Thursday evening has been hilarious, along with Bluesky.

"We need to have a serious look at who's leading this Congress, because if this is the best they can do, it's complete incompetence. This is a disaster" -- Josh Hawley suggests Mike Johnson needs to go

Roy (R-TX): But to take this bill and congratulate yourself because it's shorter in pages, but increases the debt by $5 trillion, is asinine. And that's precisely what Republicans are doing.
