January 11, 20232 yr House Republicans are going to hold the nation hostage over cutting Social Security and Medicare. Shut down coming. Screw the middle class and senior citizens. https://www.yahoo.com/news/republicans-signal-cuts-social-security-175927429.html Republicans Signal Cuts To Social Security, Medicare With New House Majority House Republicans are making clear that they intend to seek cuts to entitlement programs like Social Security and Medicare with their new majority in the 118th Congress. Their plans to target health care programs follow demands from a group of conservatives that helped elect House Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) over the weekend. Those far-right lawmakers have sought across-the-board spending cuts in order to tackle the growing national debt. "I’m all for a balanced budget, but we’re not going to do it on the backs of our troops and our military,” Rep. Michael Waltz (R-Fla.), a former Army Green Beret, said Monday during an interview on Fox Business. "If we really want to talk about the debt and spending, it’s the entitlements programs.”

January 12, 20232 yr https://www.politico.com/news/2023/01/12/progressives-gleefully-game-out-future-votes-to-boot-mccarthy-00077525 Kevin McCarthy’s concessions to conservatives did more than win him the speaker’s gavel — they empowered House progressives to wreak havoc. And they’re eager to mess with him. Republicans’ new rules allow just one member, regardless of party, to force a floor vote on deposing the speaker. And liberal Democrats, some of whom are part of the progressive "Squad,” are warning they have no problem with using the move against McCarthy, even if they don’t expect it to succeed.
