The revised package now heads back to the House, where Republican leaders hope to approve it and send it to Trump before a self-imposed July 4 deadline. But it faces hurdles.

    Are there protests? Are people lining up in DC? I feel like the left is just broken and disorganized and losing on every front.

      Maybe Americans shouldn’t have stripped all power from the left’s representatives and given it to fascists.

      The next protest will be the one! So long as nobody gives Trump a reason to make a mean tweet about the protests and there are at least 6 viral signs held up, he’s done for this time

        I do feel like protests need to transition from “We’re here with signs” to “No more labor until these problems are addressed,” but I don’t know how to get from here to there.

          More cities need to be like Philadelphia apparently. They are striking.

          Seriously, just stopping and forcing the assholes to show their hand is at least a start. People then agreeing and dumping their garbage on the government for causing the issues is a great second step.

          I’m just so tired of everyone just continuing on like it’s bold to do nothing but pretend like it’s normal and decorum will get us anywhere.

          A lot more people unemployed and un-homed. We are altogether still way too comfortable. I still have way too many gadgets that facilitate escaping.
