  All this. Except there's almost nothing left to take from those at the bottom. They've already milked that cow nearly dry. >

  “We need you to cut healthcare and education spending so we can give Lockheed and Raytheon more contracts and to spend our time creating evidence that backs up the conclusions we’ve already arrived at in investigations against our political opponents k thx bby” -Kevin McCarthy 2023 >

  Who would right now?  Kevin would clearly sell his soul for the House leadership.  Who is left to believe he'd not concede the whole enchilada to Maggie Traitor for a sip of Flavour Ade? >
