"they don’t yet have 50 for budget res" is actually the headline here -- we're talking about a 53-47 Senate. Strong and sustained public opposition can work!.
NEWS — During GOP lunch, Thune signaled a major shift in plans, saying Republicans don’t actually need to hear from the parliamentarian about the “current policy baseline” scoring method before voting on the budget resolution. The holdup, Thune said, is rather that they don’t.

Out of the bag indeed: they won't stop until they've delivered more tax cuts for billionaires, paid for by cutting off access to Social Security benefits, veterans benefits, Pell, Medicaid, SNAP, etc.
Q: The conventional wisdom is that the only place to look for cuts is entitlements. Do you think that's true?. Trump Treasury Secretary: “The cat’s out of the bag… This administration is not going to stop.”

Trump is not using these tariffs to protect American jobs (if so, they'd be targeted). He's not using them to stem the flow of fentanyl (if so, he'd close the de minimus loophole). These tariffs will hurt and the purpose is to line billionaire pockets with more tax cuts.
Trump will tout his tariffs in his speech to Congress tonight - saying “we will take in trillions of dollars” . He just spoke w/ GOP leaders about their plans to claim tariffs pay for Republicans’ massive energy, border and tax cuts bill >.

Slashing Medicaid to pay for billionaire tax cuts is deeply unpopular with the American people, and House Republicans are going to keep finding that out.
Republicans are running scared. Swing district GOP Rep. Bresnahan vowed to protect his constituents’ benefits — then voted for a budget that slashes Medicaid. Now @AP reports he’s skipping town halls, dodging interviews, and ignoring constituent emails.
