MAGA hostage takers

Maps can be created quickly, easy to use and share with others. Maps make it easier to connect a politician’s actions and the harm they cause.

Chaos unlimited
“Republicans were hopelessly divided. A seven-day continuing resolution? Fourteen days? Thirty days? A $1.47 trillion or a $1.56 trillion spending level? What about the border? They couldn’t reach consensus on any of it. Gaetz and another holdout, Dan Bishop (N.C.), walked out of the meeting. Another dissident, Bob Good (Va.), left shouting, claiming McCarthy had “surrendered to the Senate,” where a bipartisan stopgap spending bill was moving.
Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (Ga.) was actively cheering for a shutdown as some sort of punishment for Washington because of covid restrictions. “People here in Washington need to understand how it feels to be shut down,” she told reporters.
Even Rep. George Santos (N.Y.) could not lie about the chaos in the room: “We’re just screaming at each other at this point,” he told Axios.” – Washington Post
