Why say he posted inaccurate statements but not say what he said or why they are inaccurate? It sounds to me that it's a good thing we have billionaires looking out for the American people because congress and the media will not.
I don't think Johnson was thrown off guard because they're not backing him, I think he was thrown off guard because they're actually paying attention and he got caught.
When i was a fed employee we loved shutdowns! We got a bunch of time off and they always gave us retro pay anyway. Anyone who says they wont get paid is full of it.
Uh, Neither party is about helping the citizens - only their wealthy donors. The pork will remain - it'll just go to more companies, and less citizens. Just like the Covid relief - people had to pay it back, businesses were excused the debt. Business taxes USED to bring in ~30% of revenue, now even with our far larger economy it's only ~11%. Meanwhile people pay more.
Use zero pages. There is no need to raise the debt limit since on January 21st the budget will be cut by billions. As promised by Mr. Trump. If this failed bill didn't need a raise, one will never be needed.
Great time for a foriegn nation to make a move, military not being paid.... history has lessons there (Shays Rebellion). It's amusing when people agree the government should NOT pay it's bills. As if that works out for anyone.
Fed. shutdowns happen in the 3rd or 4th quarter. This gives federal time to collect taxes for needed revenue to pay tax refunds. Also, POTUS-elect needs to step aside and let current POTUS and COTUS do their jobs!.
Mike tried to shove the bill through quickly. He’s gotta go. Elon for speaker. Another cat with so much money, he can’t be bribed or threatened, while ACTUALLY DOING HIS JOB.
I had to double check to make sure I wasn’t watching msnbc! They actually think Trump pays attention to back bench Democrats nobody has ever heard of…😂🤣
"Real World Implications..." no. Government stops spending money. The real threat is the economy shutting down and people realizing that nothing important is actually affected.
@ nope. We don’t need the federal government for the most part. We could do a 90% cut and be fine. In all honesty, we need to scrap Social Security and Medicare too. The EU is doing fine and they don’t have such an extreme central government. We need to be more like the EU and do things at the state level.

If congress stopped getting paid if the govt shuts down they would get things figured out
Problem is once the government reopens they get back pay 💰

What are these "falsehoods" you both keep referring to? Please be specific. This bill was terrible for the American people!

Close it down.
Good. Call it and force them to quit playing with our future.

Congress gave themselves a raise!!!!
Weren’t they voting a $60k per year pay raise for themselves?!?! Wanted a new pro football stadium in DC!?!?
No solutions for the American people. Shut it down and get the job done. Sick of these pork belly bills 😢😮
There will NEVER be any solutions for the American people under President Musk and his sidekick Trump's term in government.
It’s expensive to shut down the government, and we pay for it.
What falsehoods? Why can’t they say?
Shut it down then!
Why say he posted inaccurate statements but not say what he said or why they are inaccurate? It sounds to me that it's a good thing we have billionaires looking out for the American people because congress and the media will not.
Also a genius who processes things faster than the average person.
Says the non-working Americans wanting 40% Raise 😅😅

This provides a good argument for the importance of DOGE
It's not a politician or Trump saying something about the bill. We the American citizens are tired of the spending on everything and anything.
Uh, Neither party is about helping the citizens - only their wealthy donors. The pork will remain - it'll just go to more companies, and less citizens.

@Alarik52 yeah government and trust never will go together. I'm old and put swm on paperwork I don't expect or want the government/taxpayers money.
You can hear Jeffries spelling out the media's headlines for them. Whatever. Shut it down.
"It's funny to imagine what Kamala Harris is thinking"
What? Who has ever wondered what Kamala was thinking, besides Kamala?
Falsehoods? YOU SHOULDN'T SPREAD MISINFORMATION.😊
What were the falsehoods???? Explain...You put it out there, now back up the statements. Who are these two???
Elon was appointed to do this?
So you support dictatorship?
The Hill is sliding badly to the left. Iie better.
We can do a bill with one page. Just for the debt limit only.
But that one page wouldn't be able to hide all the useless spending that the Democrats want. Like their pay raises.
Use zero pages. There is no need to raise the debt limit since on January 21st the budget will be cut by billions. As promised by Mr. Trump. If this failed bill didn't need a raise, one will never be needed.
Oh the poor federal employees had to go to a food bank! Give me a break!!
Hakeem Jeffries is a radical in the worst of ways. His brother wrote a book on race and politics.
The government funding section was only 6 pages.
it should be down until good solutions came.
Shut down until Trump is back in charge. We don’t give a flying F

Sounds rediculous to say elon is running the show. Trump is very vocal, and he wouldnt allow it
You have to begin somewhere.
It was a Democrat bill.
Killed by social media and a billionaire.
Some don't see the conflict of interests - but they're happy with someone behind a curtain.
Poor Mike Johnson. He begged Donald for the Speaker job, and Elon Musk used him like a fleshlight.
Nation park 😂. Bro just walk in there wont be anyone to stop you.
Let it shut down
1500 pages…
Christmas break
Oink
Section 605 look into it
Musk is not lying. You are. Shame on you!
Where's Robbie
who care
lol When have billionaires not been running the show?
My message to Americans: it's time you woke up, realize that your battle is with the super rich greedy.. Not hard working immigrants.. it always was

Shut it down for 6 months. it will cut spending in half
Why don't you tell us what exactly is in the bill.
It's usually available online if you bother to look.
Most don't, they just take what others tell them as truth.
Johnson spent all that time with him and showed how slimy he is by trying to push this trash through.
Both parties are run by corporate billionaires.
It's not exactly a 'new' thing.
Previous time something like this happened McCarthywsousted by a group led by Matt Gaetz. We know what is happening to him.

FJB
We don't need to hear your editorial on what's going on. We tuned in for the facts. Just stick to that if you can.
There is no deal for you Mike!
Everyone gets a longer holiday. Shut it down
"Republican King Maker" - Like Trump needed Musk?
All about heresay. Are you afraid to expose what was in that piece of trash spending act? Question, are you fake news or wrong half news?
Congress in on check! Lol..
Make Elon Musk as the HOUSE SPEAKER👍❤️🙏🏻
He can't hold elected office i believe.
Was it take your child to work day?
"Real World Implications..." no. Government stops spending money. The real threat is the economy shutting down and people realizing that nothing important is actually affected.
Shut it down and don’t open back up until we have a 50% cut to discretionary spending minimum!
Or we could just go back to 1950's taxes, 90% on earnings over 250k.
The rich still got richer then, but the middle class was comfortable.

the TDS is strong with this one...
Government isn't shutting down. Read the bill
