    Because the Q-publicans don’t want it to work.

    If Republicans were actually willing to participate in any attempt to get anything done on behalf of the American people, no reconciliation bills would ever be necessary.

    Alas…

    Like all Trump Disciples, Lisa hates the idea of improving the country.

    Ya know, patriotism.

    We aren’t moving because Republicans hate America.

    Only Lisa (and her ilk) would think investing in the country to make it competitive on the world stage is garbage.

    Without austerity, obstruction, and now — since 1/6/2012 — sedition, what else can the poor, shrinking, “Republican” party membership do to overturn democracy and sustain their unfair, authoritarian, advantages with an increasingly diverse, better educated, electorate?

    Because the GOP is the party of no. They are an anchor chained around our country’s neck

    Dems announced that they had agreed to an infrastructure bill. Then they said they wouldn’t pass it unless reconciliation passed. If they want to renege on their agreement, how is that Republicans fault?

    How convenient for Lisa that she can call the contents of the Reconcilliation Bill garbage without saying, or even knowing, what is in it.

    Republicans are experts at NOT. See Merrick Garland.

    Republicans are afraid that Democrats will give the American people what they need and want. The Republicans know they’ll look bad for obstructing, for instance, a single-player health care system, like most of the other advanced countries have, but obstruction is all they have.

    It’s all they have to protect the health-care and pharmaceutical industries, which are very profitable.

    The Republicans look at successful programs like Social Security, and resent them. Social Security ties up lots of money the Republican politicians would love to give to their rich masters, while getting a taste themselves. The Republicans’ efforts to undermine public schools are the same. Lots of money they’d like. (Lookin’ at you, Betsy.)

    It’s all about the money with Republicans. It’s their biggest ‘tell’. Wealth is power and the means to more wealth.

    You’d think that Republicans would be on board with infrastructure. Lots of money to be made re-building roads and bridges and all the rest of it.

    Poor infrastructure costs people money.

    Where is the money that poor infrastructure costs going? Who benefits?

    I think the infrastructure we really need to worry about at the moment is our currency. . .. rescinding the trump tax cut for the rich will help pay for covid relief.

    and medicare for all should be a priority for any additional spending

    Since Trump, my time spent arguing with many Republicans has declined sharply. It was bad enough granting any validity to the fiction that Trump had any competency or good intentions as a President. But now ANYONE who even gives a hint of credence to his “stolen election” lies I realize is irredeemable.

    BUSTED: These 10 House Republicans literally voted against additional funding for their local police departments

    Now NBC News reports that Democrats have identified ten different GOP-represented districts that received important funding for local governments used to shore up funding for police budgets, despite their members of Congress voting against the legislation.

    The members whose districts received police funding are House Republican Conference Chairwoman Elise Stefanik (R-NY), along with Reps. Dan Crenshaw (R-TX), Cathy McMorris Rodgers (R-WA), David Kustoff (R-TN), Sam Graves (R-MO), Steve Chabot, (R-OH), John Katko (R-NY), Victoria Spartz (R-IN), Doug Lamborn (R-CO), and Andy Biggs (R-AZ).

    Another good one, Lisa. Right over the junior trolls heads. Their blunt knee jerk hate leaves them fatally exposed to subtle wit and ridicule.

    The infrastructure bill agreed upon by 10 Senators is garbage. GOP and Corporate Dems favor $1.9T in wealth tax cuts but gawd forbid we pay $1.9T to fix America’s infrastructure. That’s all you need to know about Lisa and other Conservative propagandists.
