12. It's not just grumbling, it's actual floor votes

The senate passed a war powers resolution and the house would have too if Johnson hadn’t sent them home.

Once they return, the ballroom, slush fund, and Iran War are all likely to get voted down.

I don’t care why some Republicans are standing up, just pleased that they are.

I don’t think it will save them in November, even if they “double down” on voter suppression (whatever that means, since suppression is written into many states election laws, not sure how somebody would “double” it).
