Snap Shots of YOUR Republican Party, 21st Century Style

[Rajoo]

Here is a good one.

The $886 billion package, compromise legislation agreed to by negotiators from the Republican-led House and Democratic-led Senate, strips away a number of contentious provisions — such as restricting U.S. service members’ access to abortion — that hard-right lawmakers had rammed into the lower chamber’s bill despite withering complaints from members of both parties.

If it passes, as appears likely, the outcome will symbolize a defeat for the GOP’s raucous right flank. Already, some of the party’s most outspoken figures — including Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.), a firebrand who advocated some of the most divisive proposals — have denounced the final product as a “total sell-out of conservative principles.”

In a video posted this week to X, formerly known as Twitter, Greene declared herself a “flat-out no” when it comes time to vote: “I think it’s outrageous that this happened with our Republican controlled Congress.”

No Marge, just the House and barely at that. Guess she has not been told that the Freedumb Caucus which kicked her out has caved on all budget matters.
