Speaker Johnson is saying that the Democrats should just give them everything they want and the republicans will talk to them about health care.. Please peddle that to someone else.. Every time the Democrats try and make a compromise bill with the republicans, they agree and then pull a lucy and take the rug right out from under the Democrats...
Speaker if you were one ounce of serious about negotiations you would bring your side back from vacation or where ever the hell they are and negotiate.. so just stop.. you are making a fool out of yourself.
Just for reference on how the Republicans can be trusted.
"WASHINGTON (AP) Senate Republicans blocked a bipartisan border package Wednesday, scuttling months of negotiations with Democrats on legislation intended to cut back record numbers of illegal border crossings."
Many Republicans said the election-year compromise wasnt enough, even as supporters of the bill insisted it was the best possible in divided government"

What if four or five Democrats promised to vote 'No' on releasing the Epstein files to open up the budget convo -
Then when the vote comes up on the Epstein Cover Up, claim they are 'deeply concerned' but could not vote 'No' after all. I mean- it works for Susan Collins.
