It’s a terrible bill. It will literally kill people. The most vulnerable among us will suffer as the wealthiest benefit. It’s perverse. I wish there were something I could do. But alas, I am only a U.S. Senator from Alaska whose “no” vote would kill the bill. So I voted yes. You get it.

Oh, Lisa. If only!

I didn’t know that the House had an equivalent of the Filibuster. But now I’m reading that House Leaders have unlimited speaking time. Good to see him put that privilege to use! I hope that he breaks some records today, and that we can expect more of this in the future.

It’s not even a formal rule. It’s just tradition. Which makes me wonder why Johnson hasn’t invoked some bullshit formal rule to stop it. It’s not like he cares about political norms. It makes me wonder . . .
