Sen. Ron Johnson Says He Has Votes to Stop BBB. A Vote for Big Beautiful Bill is a Vote for Runaway AI, Warned of by Stephen Hawking 'End of Humanity'

Honestly, there is not a single republican there I'd even give you 2¢ for. I see these people get interviewed in the hallways of congress and they never get asked the questions I would ask. People think just because I support Trump and hate democrats that I must be a republican, but I actually have a big problem with the GOP, and Trump is just about the only good thing to come their way in ages.

I remember when Reagan ran for president in the 1980s, the GOP did not like or back him at all either.

The late great Harry Browne called this shot back in 1996.

He was asked about how he'd react if lightning struck and he got elected, and republicans resisted him.

He said that (my words here) they would then all be revealing themselves for the posuers that they are....And that the people who continued to vote them into office would be revealing where the mindset of the GOP is at.

Looking at what we're getting today, the dude was Nostradamus.

1. Rand Paul is a "no" primarily because of raising the Debt ceiling $4T. He wants to cut spending more as well, but doesn't say what he wants to cut.

2. Ron Johnson and other senators want to eliminate the $3.8T (over 10-years) deficit, but don't say how. They should support Trump's recommendation to raise the top rate to 40%, that would balance the budget with a slight surplus.

Get it done senate or the taxes go up for everyone.

40% rate for three years on the billionaire robber barons would ease the debt and make social security solid as a rock. The middle class pays that already when you count in state taxes and FISA, and no accountants to find the loopoles. Warren Buffet once said his secretary pays a higher real rate than he does.
