NEW: Speaker Johnson is now considering a "plan B" for his spending bill after receiving fierce backlash from Elon Musk on X, according to Politico. Good. According to the outlet, Johnson is considering producing a "clean CR" and dealing with the other issues later on when Trump is in... office. "That would mean dropping disaster aid, $30 billion for farmers, and a one-year extension of the farm bill, among other items, at least for now," Politico reported. Musk previously said he would "fight tooth and nail" to make sure the government is using taxpayer money the right way. He wasn't kidding.show more

Let's face it: everyone now changing their position is only doing so to save their own skin and pull their head out of the noose. They see the massive resistance and the growing opposition they'd face for supporting this absurd Continuing Resolution, which has sparked outrage across the conservative base. One thing is crystal clear: Elon Musk isn’t joking when he says that any senator or representative who votes for this Continuing Resolution will be primaried out. At the next primary or general election, they'll lose their seat. This isn’t a hollow threat; it's a growing reality. It’s only this looming scenario that has caused some, including Speaker Mike Johnson, to backtrack. Make no mistake: Mike Johnson should lose his position. His attempt to push this Continuing Resolution through, working with Democrats to craft this package, is an insult to fiscal conservatism. It reeks of hypocrisy, arrogance, and betrayal. It's unworthy of someone claiming to be a friend of Donald Trump or the America-first movement. Mike Johnson isn't a Trump ally; he's a RINO who has shown his true colors. He should no longer be Speaker or a member of Congress. He needs to go, and the sooner, the better. That's a key lesson from the last 24 hours. 😒

The media won’t tell you, and woke liberals are clueless: Trump’s roaring comeback is driven by everyday Americans fed up with soaring bills, not obsessed about a dozen genders or the right to a transgender bathroom. #AbookThatChangesEverything #TrumpWon

Speaker Johnson may be just posturing like usual. I simply don’t trust him. He’s failed us so many times before.

Put out a clean CR that has only the minimum amount needed or SHUT IT DOWN!

This is how should ALWAYS Be! Do the CR then Want a raise One line item and Vote Money for Ukraine One line item and Vote Covid Money One line item and Vote Stadium Money One line item and Vote It’s not hard- it’s making them do their jobs and stopping them from putting goodies in everything.

Good, but not good enough, this bill should’ve never seen the light of day. This is a clear indication that Mike Johnson shouldn’t be Speaker.

They all better. I'm so fuggin mad that they would even DARE to try this 💩 after that election. But here we are. They need to understand, we have 2 options to save this country. Through the ballot box, which is what we're TRYING to do, but when a govt becomes tyrannical, it is the duty of the people to alter or abolish that govt. Won't let us alter? Ok. You made your choice.

Without 𝕏, this bill would have passed, and nobody would have known just how much of a dis-ster it is.

You don’t need a “plan b” when you have balls.

I don't trust Johnson to keep his word...ever.

Ask why they are doing this in the first place. Money laundering before Trump takes office!
