Speaker 1: Over the Easter recess, Republican lawmakers got an earful. It
Speaker 1: turns out that voters back home or Matt Adam for
Speaker 1: passing this massive omnibus spending bill which gave Democrats everything
Speaker 1: they wanted. So a few Republicans came up an idea
Speaker 1: to clawback some of that spending. By using nineteen seventy
Speaker 1: four budget rules, they could make cuts to the budget
Speaker 1: they just passed without worrying about a filibuster. No, this
Speaker 1: is theoretical, but it was just talk anyway. The usual
Speaker 1: Republicans immediately went on record against that very idea. Main
Speaker 1: Senator Susan Collins called it ill advised. Alaska Senator Lisa
Speaker 1: the Murk Murkowski said that her initial response was no,
Speaker 1: Why well, because coin back outrageous spending would poison future
Speaker 1: negotiations with the Democrats. Republican leader Mitch McConnell said some
Speaker 1: kind of recession package might be worth a discussion some day,
Speaker 1: but since this budget was a bipartisan deal, he doesn't
Speaker 1: think clawing back spend thing is achievable. So Republicans go
Speaker 1: to town meetings, tell their senators what they want, and
Speaker 1: they get polite lip service. But when these senators get
Speaker 1: back to the swamp. It doesn't matter. What matters is
Speaker 1: what Democrats want and the Republicans too. Now that doesn't
Speaker 1: tell you, voters, what your Republican senators think of you.
Speaker 1: I didn't think of a pile, nothing will. Rush has
