REPUBLICAN GENOCIDE?

12. The cracks forming are among the Republicans.

My deepest hope is that the cratering happens fast. But it is a hope that has more basis in reality daily.

Paul Krugman was on Lawrence last night. He believes the Senate would pass a continuing resolution to fund SNAP easily with bipartisan support. His thought is that such a resolution would pass the House as well. The sticking point is Johnson calling the House back in to session. And, of course, the reason that hasn’t occurred already is that Johnson then would have to swear in Grijalva and the vote to release the Epstein files would pass. Krugman wrote yesterday and reiterated on MSNBC that it’s not too much to say that the Republicans are willing to starve Americans to keep the truth about Epstein hidden.

The cracks are there, though. The Senate called out the Brazil tariffs. I’ve heard the Canada tariffs are next. MTG is taking the Speaker to task and others are joining in. They realize the House must get back to work. The fact that they have not been called back to Washington by Johnson is noticeable.
