Summary
Republican lawmakers are beginning to push back against some of Donald Trump’s spending cuts and tariffs as they impact their states.
Senators Katie Britt, Susan Collins, and Bill Cassidy criticized cuts to NIH funding, which support research institutions in their states.
Rural Republicans introduced a bill to protect the Food for Peace program, which Trump and Elon Musk want to dismantle.
Tariffs on imports, particularly from Canada, have also sparked objections from figures like Mitch McConnell and Chuck Grassley, who warn they will raise costs for farmers and consumers.
This is just too much benefit of the doubt. They know what they’re doing, they know why they’re doing it, and pretending otherwise is just continuing to participate in a shitty farce.
They know. They don’t give a shit. They would rather fuck their own grandparents to death than admit that the other side of the aisle could be right about anything, ever.
Seriously. They would fuck the blood out of grandma’s cooling body if it made a gay person or black person even mildly uncomfortable for a few seconds. The hate is the only thing that matters. The hate is everything to them.
