  1. If 47 Republicans are willing to go around Johnson for this, can we attach it to a CR without the save act and get it passed?

    So of the 221 republicans, only 74 voted yes to this.

    Meanwhile 171 of 220 democrats did.

    But yeah totally a bipartisan effort.

    Me to mom: “They’re coming for your SS”

    Mom: “No they’re not, we’ll be fine”

    Mike: hold my beer…

    171 democrats force maneuver to vote on social security expansion and protection.

    Nobody is more furious than the 50 million conservative social security recipients who can’t wait to vote to end their own benefit.

    Conservatives really are the dumbest group of people.

    I commend their bipartisanship for this discharge petition! Victims of natural disasters on social security will now get tax relief. Thank you 118th Congress (never thought I’d say that), and f*ck you Mike Johnson!

    > The last time a discharge petition succeeded before this year was in 2015 — nearly a decade ago.

    Umm… no? The 90s is nearly a decade ago.. right?
