1 00:00:00,200 --> 00:00:03,800 Speaker 1: Over the Easter recess, Republican lawmakers got an earful. It 2 00:00:03,840 --> 00:00:06,600 Speaker 1: turns out that voters back home or Matt Adam for 3 00:00:06,720 --> 00:00:11,039 Speaker 1: passing this massive omnibus spending bill which gave Democrats everything 4 00:00:11,200 --> 00:00:14,480 Speaker 1: they wanted. So a few Republicans came up an idea 5 00:00:14,520 --> 00:00:18,520 Speaker 1: to clawback some of that spending. By using nineteen seventy 6 00:00:18,520 --> 00:00:21,680 Speaker 1: four budget rules, they could make cuts to the budget 7 00:00:21,760 --> 00:00:24,520 Speaker 1: they just passed without worrying about a filibuster. No, this 8 00:00:24,680 --> 00:00:27,840 Speaker 1: is theoretical, but it was just talk anyway. The usual 9 00:00:27,880 --> 00:00:32,480 Speaker 1: Republicans immediately went on record against that very idea. Main 10 00:00:32,760 --> 00:00:37,400 Speaker 1: Senator Susan Collins called it ill advised. Alaska Senator Lisa 11 00:00:37,560 --> 00:00:41,320 Speaker 1: the Murk Murkowski said that her initial response was no, 12 00:00:41,680 --> 00:00:46,440 Speaker 1: Why well, because coin back outrageous spending would poison future 13 00:00:46,479 --> 00:00:51,120 Speaker 1: negotiations with the Democrats. Republican leader Mitch McConnell said some 14 00:00:51,200 --> 00:00:54,960 Speaker 1: kind of recession package might be worth a discussion some day, 15 00:00:55,800 --> 00:00:58,880 Speaker 1: but since this budget was a bipartisan deal, he doesn't 16 00:00:58,880 --> 00:01:02,960 Speaker 1: think clawing back spend thing is achievable. So Republicans go 17 00:01:03,000 --> 00:01:06,480 Speaker 1: to town meetings, tell their senators what they want, and 18 00:01:06,560 --> 00:01:09,440 Speaker 1: they get polite lip service. But when these senators get 19 00:01:09,480 --> 00:01:12,480 Speaker 1: back to the swamp. It doesn't matter. What matters is 20 00:01:12,520 --> 00:01:16,920 Speaker 1: what Democrats want and the Republicans too. Now that doesn't 21 00:01:16,959 --> 00:01:19,920 Speaker 1: tell you, voters, what your Republican senators think of you. 22 00:01:20,480 --> 00:01:29,759 Speaker 1: I didn't think of a pile, nothing will.
