    Speaker Dick has quite an agenda in front of him. The question is if he is in over his head or can he rise to the occasion. His problem is having to navigate a divided republican caucus, a senate well united on funding issues and a liberal president. His caucus and MAGA are under the false impression they can dictate the agenda from the House but the truth is the House is the weakest of the three players and the Republicans simply do not have the political capital to dictate the agenda.

    We will see if the republicans and the MAGAs have learned a lesson from all of this and that lesson should be shrewdness. Are they shrewd enough to get wins within the larger agenda of the nation or are they going to crash the government again going on kamakazi missions over debt ceilings and meaningless social issues.

    I wish him well but his fate is really in the hands of a minority of house members and a minority of voters.

    1.5 trillion in cuts,student loan restart,new requirements for aid programs and a pipeline while the so called liberal president got nothing for democrats in the debt limit deal shows thats not completely true with the piece of shit snake currently in The White House.

    I would have thought you would wish him well too. I guess recalcitrance has no bounds.

    Bidens approval ratings show the the majority of Americans agree with my overall assessment of Biden.
