Congressional Republicans are split over their spending bill. Instead, Jake Tapper and a bunch of idiots want you to keep talking about 2024.
This isn’t hard to figure out.

We were promised efficiency and savings — but privatisation brought us debt, decline, and corporate greed. Is it time to take services back?Mike Sivier (Vox Political)
“Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem wrote in a social media post Thursday evening that DHS and the Secret Service are investigating an alleged threat made against Trump by Comey.”
Casting Noem in the role of Himmler is a bold choice.
