  1. GOP’s YOLO caucus could be trouble for Trump agenda

    In a Republican-led Congress defined by deference to Donald Trump, there’s a small but steadily growing cohort who have found themselves more willing to break with the White House.
    Although the president maintains a firm grip on Republican voters, the expanding club could hinder his agenda on everything from the Iran war to immigration funding at a moment when his party holds a tenuous majority on Capitol Hill.
    Sen. Bill #Cassidy of Louisiana is the newest member of the club.
    Just days after losing his primary to a Trump-backed challenger, Cassidy on Tuesday reversed himself on legislation involving the war in Iran and voted with Democrats to rein in U.S. military action.
    “The way our Constitution is set up, Congress should hold the executive branch accountable,” he told reporters the day before.
    Sen. John #Cornyn of Texas could be next after Trump endorsed Ken Paxton, Cornyn’s rival for the Republican nomination in next week’s runoff.
    Rep. Thomas #Massie of Kentucky is perhaps a founding member of the YOLO caucus — slang for “you only live once,” used to punctuate unbothered or even foolhardy behavior.
    He frustrated Trump since the president’s first term, and his status was solidified after losing his primary on Tuesday to a Trump-backed challenger.
    Massie has enraged Trump by voting against his signature tax and spending bill and by pushing for the release of the Jeffrey Epstein files.
    He hinted there’s more to come before he leaves office.
    “I got seven months left in Congress,” Massie said with a grin during his concession speech as the crowd erupted.
    Other similarly situated Republicans include Sen. Thom #Tillis, who was a fierce critic of former Homeland Security Secretary Kristi Noem and has more recently turned his attention to Defense Secretary Pete Hegseth.
    There’s also Sen. Lisa #Murkowski of Alaska, who joined Democrats last week in a bid to curb Trump’s war powers in Iran.
    Sens. Susan #Collins of Maine and Mitch #McConnell of Kentucky have voted against some of Trump’s Cabinet picks.
    And in the House, Rep. Don #Bacon of Nebraska has pushed to reclaim congressional power over tariffs.
    “If the legislative branch always votes with the president, we do have a king,” Massie said in his concession speech Tuesday.
    This hardly amounts to a revival of the Never Trump movement that some Republicans unsuccessfully hoped would curb the president’s excesses during his first term or block him from returning to office.
    Many in the party, including Trump’s occasional detractors, have either stood by or been unable to block the president as he launched the war in Iran and presided over an aggressive immigration enforcement operation and the dismantling of the federal workforce.
    Today’s unencumbered Republicans don’t fit into an ideological box.
    But they are united by a sense of emboldening that can be attained in only a few ways in Trump’s Washington.
    Many, like Tillis, McConnell and Bacon, have decided to retire and can cast votes knowing they’ll never again have to face Republican primary voters.
    Others like Collins and Murkowski have more leeway because they represent states that tend to reward political independence.
    And some like Massie banked on the idea that voters could support both Trump and someone who occasionally crossed him.
    It’s a paradox for Trump.
    As he demands total loyalty and pushes out Republican dissenters, he’s left with a growing cohort who, for one reason or another, owe Trump nothing.
    That could be a problem for Senate Majority Leader John Thune and House Speaker Mike Johnson,
    who are already governing with threadbare majorities.
    Shifting loyalties of even a few Republican lawmakers could dramatically complicate the ability for either chamber to pass substantial legislation ahead of the November midterm elections.
    Thune called Cornyn a “principled conservative” and “very effective senator” on Tuesday.
    “None of us control what the president does,” he said.
    The next tests could come later this week as Thune pushes a funding package for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and Customs and Border Protection designed to pass on a party line basis.

  2. Cassidy Hutchinson: “… And the President said I think – so he had said something to the effect of, ‘I don’t want people to know we lost, Mark. This is embarrassing. Figure it out. We need to figure it out. I don’t want people to know that we lost.’”

  5. CW: USpol | Republican Senator Demands Full Investigation Of Alex Pretti Killing | Newsweek


    Republican Senator Bill Cassidy has called for a full investigation after the killing of Alex Jeffrey Pretti by a U.S. Border Patrol agent in Minneapolis.

    "The events in Minneapolis are incredibly disturbing," the Louisiana senator said in a post on X. "The credibility of ICE and DHS are at stake. There must be a full joint federal and state investigation. …"

  6. The text at the end of the post is copied rather than shared, at previous poster's request, and lightly edited. Feel free to share my post, though, with commentary intact.

    You know this was always their endgame. The bullshit answers #RFK Jr. and his fellow loons gave Congress were even more transparent lies than all the other confirmation hearing testimony. Everyone who voted to confirm them shares the blame, but Bill #Cassidy has earned a special place in hell.

    #Bondi, #Hegseth, #Noem, and all the rest of the cabinet are all assholes, and profoundly dangerous. Justice and Homeland Security are slaying their thousands, and Defense is gearing up to slay its tens of thousands. Health and Human Services is chuckling at them and saying "amateurs."

    I'm skeptical that any amount of lobbying #HHS directly, or any of its sub-departments such as #FDA, #NIH, and #CDC, will have much effect. But maybe, just maybe, calling your #Senators and #Representatives will have an effect.

    Let's face it, members of #Congress will suffer a lot less from idiocy like #tariffs than the rest of us, and they're (probably) safe from roundup and #deportation. #Viruses don't care about such distinctions. Mighty and humble alike can choke to death on their own liquefying lung tissue.

    #Antivaxers are not "skeptics." They're not interested in evidence. They can't be bargained with, they can't be reasoned with, and they absolutely will not stop, ever, until you are dead.

    Marty Makary and Tracy Hoeg at the FDA are currently trying to set a policy that would effectively eliminate all covid vaccines. They want to require a full clinical trial every year for companies to update the covid vaccine to match the current strain, which they know is not possible.

    Please contact the FDA and demand continuing access to yearly updated covid vaccines and ask for the Novavax 2025 covid vaccine to be approved.
