Hello, it’s weekend. This is weekender ☕
On Thursday, Parliament Speaker Mike Johnson defeated the right side of his conference by promising at least $ 2 trillion in spending cuts to pay the price of Trump’s tax discounts.
By Friday, he was facing a rebellion from the moderate wing, with its weak members acknowledged that such huge discounts should come from programs that include Medicaid programs and food aid programs.
“I ran to Congress under a promise to do something better for the people of northeastern Pennsylvania,” said Representative Rob Presbanshanan (R-PA), a newly elected member sitting in one of the most swing areas. “If a front bill is put in place that drinks the courage on which my neighbors depend, I will not vote for it. The eighth boycott in Pennsylvania chose me to defend them in Congress. These benefits are the promises that were made to the people of Nepa and from where I came, people keep their word.”
His office also indicated that Medicaid recipients make up more than 25 percent of his region.
The same general snapshot through the bow is the latest warning from the Republican Front lines in the House of Representatives, who publicly wandering in the extension of Trump’s tax cuts-which benefited from the wealthy by an overwhelming majority-on the emergence of programs such as Medicaid and Snap, which serve low-income Americans.
“I don’t know where they will get the discounts,” said MP David Valdou (R-CA), a permanent survivor who voted to establish Trump, Correspondence Thursday.
This makes Johnson’s position more impossible, he can only lose one vote on any legislation that will not attract democratic support. This is before working on how to make its members agree to raise the roof of the debt by 4 trillion dollars, as is included in the plan – which some of them did not vote once in their entire career in Congress.

Here’s what TPM has this week:
- Josh Kovensky has details on how to freeze the Donald Trump financing for the United States Agency for International Development, exactly of the United Nations World Food Program operations in the Middle East.
- Not only was the general confirmation session: Himelman’s betrayal explains a written certificate that Cash Patel presented it to the Judicial Committee of the Senate, during which the Senator Dick Deep (D-Lil) claims.
- EMINE YüCEL views the calls of Representative Chip Roy (R-TX) clear to Russians who are competing for the use of reservations to continue implementing the destroyed Trump agenda.
The destruction is the point
It is one thing that we must know that there is a lot to be destroyed; It is another thing to appreciate.
Thanks to a useful advice this week, we can look at the Earth’s influence for at least one of the Tram’s devastating and delusional management. It has obtained an assessment that the United Nations Food Program, the world’s largest humanitarian organization, was presented to the US Agency for International Development, which determines how freezing will distort its operations in the Middle East.
The numbers presented by the Email Financial Program sent on February 12 to the United States Agency for International Development, amazing.
In Jordan, the British program program will stop feeding 310,000 refugees by May. In Egypt, the program will witness a “full resource break” for 250,000 Sudanese refugees by April. In Lebanon, which faces the crisis of both internal refugees and Syrian refugees, the World Food Program said it will stop cash transfers to 570,000 Syrians in February, and that 140,000 Lebanese who receive food parcels will be affected starting in April. In Yemen, the US National Faculty told that the organization should be closed entirely by March.
The British program program tried to frame the memo in national security terms. The document says; In Egypt, increased hunger among Sudanese refugees can increase “the risk of social instability and economic tensions in a major regional ally of the United States”
It is a good stadium, but it collides with a fact that falls throughout the government, and the world: the destruction is the point.

Patel may be saddened in a written certificate as well
The Judicial Committee of the Senate approved the nomination of Cash Patel this week, despite the fact that the evidence indicates that it may have been exposed to today – in all of his testimony and now in a written certificate – also – is still heading.
This week, a member of the Judicial Committee of the Senate Dick Durbin (D-Lil) presented in both a letter to the Inspector General of the Ministry of Justice Michael Horwitz and in statements in the Senate Hall, evidence against Cash Patel, claiming that he personally cleared senior law enforcement officials in FBI.
according to Debine“The very reliable information from multiple sources” indicates that Patel, working closely with the White House Chief of Staff, Stephen Miller, Acting Deputy Prosecutor Emile Bove, as well as members of the Consultative Team of the FBI director, directs a series of shooting at The FBI, although it is still a candidate – as a work of political revenge.
TPM received a copy of Patel’s responses written to the questions posed by nearly dozens of members of the Senate Judicial Committee after a Patel confirmation session on January 30. I looked at Durbin’s allegations, Patel may have been disturbed in his written testimony as well, according to Durbin’s office.
In a written question presented on January 31, the Senator Pohr Booker asked if he believed that “participation in federal criminal investigations and President Trump’s simulations alone, without other evidence of violations, misconduct or non-performance patients. Reasons for reducing, reseting or terminating FBI employees?
“The employee decisions must be based on performance and adherence to the law. If this is confirmed, every FBI employee will be kept on the same absolute standard, and no one will be terminated to allocate the situation,” Patel replied.
Booker also asked Patel if he believed that participating in investigations related to Capitol on January 6 is alone in order to separate the office. Patel replied, according to his written testimony, the following: “The decisions of employees must be based on performance and commitment to the law. If you are confirmed, every FBI employee will be kept on the same absolute criterion, and no one will end to allocate the situation.”
In these written responses themselves, Patel also escapes from all questions related to his previous knowledge of forced resignation or infusions within the office. When he was explicitly asked if he had heard anything about the officers who were separated, he said more than once, “I don’t remember.”
Senator Alex Badilla (D-CA) asked Patel the same if he had ever discussed the FBI’s refusal with President Donald Trump. He replied, again, “I don’t remember.”
“If you are confirmed, all investigations will be opened at the FBI only if there is a legal and realistic basis that could be able to reach,” Patel added.
– Himelman’s betrayal
Words of wisdom
The president is right. The course must remain. It has a constitutional right and a duty to defend our tax dollars. Russians Vogue can use reservation. “
This is the CHIP ROY (R-TX) during an interview with Fox Business this week, claiming that President Trump should continue to ignore the Congress Authority for the portfolio in order to continue the federal departments and agencies.
Moreover, it explicitly calls for reservation.
I hate to break it for you, Mr. Roy, but the Congress Budget Law and its rule of 1974 shows that the executive or president cannot change the one -sided money (although this does not matter the Trump administration).
I would like to suggest some history lessons in Nixon’s attempts to memorize the federal expenses authorized by Congress.
