'They Had one Fucking Job'

A strongly-worded commentary at the link below:

"The bill hasn’t passed yet. The deal’s not done. The betrayal is in motion — but we can stop it. We can still make them choke on their cowardice."

"Mike Johnson won’t even answer questions about an ACA vote because he has no intention of holding one. He said the quiet part out loud: There is no deal. Just a Democratic cave-in pre-sweetened with broken promises."

"So call these senators. Tell them to vote NO. Call all damn day. Flood their offices like your survival depends on it — because for millions of people, it does...These are the eight Democratic Senators saving Donald Trump and MAGA....Call them. Demand they flip their vote to NO....Tell them that they need an actual agreement on those ACA subsidies in writing not a pinky swear."

Sen. Dick Durbin (D–IL) — (202) 224-2152

Sen. John Fetterman (D–PA) — (202) 224-4254

It only needs 50 votes to pass. If every Democrat voted against it, there are still enough Republican votes
