re: Post your reaction to Massie losing

This has been a really fun couple days. Seeing the deranged and unhinged TDS posters look like absolute clowns is just great. Enjoy Memorial Day you losers!

Thomas Massie voted in favor of the Fiscal Responsibility Act.

In May 2023, Massie, a Republican from Kentucky, provided the deciding “yes” vote in the House Rules Committee that advanced the Fiscal Responsibility Act to the House floor Fox News. His vote was crucial because it gave the bill a narrow margin to pass the Rules Committee, ensuring it could proceed to a floor vote before the June 5 deadline to avoid a government default Forward Kentucky.

The Fiscal Responsibility Act suspended the federal debt limit until January 1, 2025, cut federal spending by $1.5 trillion over the next decade (including $11 billion from pandemic funds), and included a provision for a 1% discretionary spending cut if Congress failed to pass all 12 mandatory appropriation bills by year’s end Forward Kentucky.

Massie’s support for the bill was notable given his history as a deficit hawk and his reputation as “Mr. No” on debt issues. He argued that the spending caps and the 1% cut would create a level playing field and incentivize responsible fiscal behavior Forward Kentucky+1.

The bill ultimately passed the House with 314 ayes to 117 nays and then moved to the Senate, where it also passed.

This is all I could find. For some reason it's not on his Heritage Action list.

And Romney, like Massie, is regaled by Progressive Democrats. Yet here you are, calling us democrats for recognizing that Massie can't catch up to his rhetoric.

Holy irrational conflation Batman

Its pretty crazy how they gave Massie 314 votes.

Massie was just ONE of the 314 Yay votes. And he definitely voted for it according to the Office of the Clerk, U.S. House.

Many of you conflate original America First anti-establishment types who may oppose Trump at times (Massie, MTG, Boebert) with establishment scum like Turtle or Paul Ryan who undermine him. The first type of dissent is healthy, but you guys want hero worship and won't tolerate that (nor will Trump). So, the MAGA movement is just going to be whatever Trump decides that day.

Perhaps.

There is no perhaps. It's basic math.

Also, if you're allocating the same amounts above operational necessities, it's "waste" by default. This is the very simple fact you keep glossing over.

This is why DOGE means nothing if we allocate the same amount of money.

Jesus I cannot make it any simpler. This is like Kindergarten level now.
