The cellphone image Johnson is showing him is probably either a tweet Dear Leader intends to send if he doesn't change his vote attacking him by name and calling for his head, or death threats from MAGA Nation if he doesn't bend to Dear Leader's will.

Or he could be showing Clyde the app he and his son use to watch porn together.

We'll never know.
 
Trump is Hot boxing Massie and Spartz as I wake to go to the bathroom.

Trump isn't going to do shit to "fix" this bill, as it gives him and his fellow billionaires (and Project 2025 advocates) nearly everything they could want. He will, however, make a big ceremony out of signing it and brag about what big, beautiful bill it is and mock and troll Democrats for being "losers" once again. In other words, just a typical day with Dear Leader.

And I'm sure that in their meetings with Trump he bullied and threatened them with political oblivion if they didn't bend the knee and play along. So they caved, like they always do.

Holdouts got their theater and the bill will pass once Dems run out of delaying tactics for a final vote today.

They should have bullied back and pointed out if it didn't pass then it would diminish Trump's ability to touch them. So he would be better off to just fix the Bill. TACO Trump would then soon emerge.

Work requirements are an extreme paperwork burden -- one that has the effect and purpose of kicking millions off coverage. Republicans talk about cutting red tape for businesses, while simultaneously regulating the poor into oblivion with miles of red tape.

John Oliver explains the problem very well in this week's show:

My wife manages our 26 yo disabled son’s Medicaid approval/waivers. He’s unable to work. What this video shows is absolutely true. She was valedictorian of her HS and was a Presidents scholar at Ga Tech (equivalent to a Morehead) and graduated with an engineering degree with a 3.96 GPA. She works in IT and is computer savvy. Despite this background, the most difficult and frustrating/stressful challenge in her life is filling out the Medicaid forms and dealing with annual paperwork and the people whose job is to administer the Medicaid benefits. She spends countless hours on the phone every year at renewal and sometimes is denied for unspecified reasons and she fights hard to get it back.
If she struggles, how difficult must it be for the millions without her background and experience? And it will only get worse-assuming we keep Medicaid for him at all.
