WATCH — @repstevenhorsford.bsky.social : “My amendment would redirect that $40 BILLION from Argentina to fund the ACA subsidies for two years… a far better use of taxpayer dollars.”

Among the best case scenarios for the Dems is a demoralized GOP base that doesn't get off the mat in 2026. That's how you get a colossal wave opportunity that flips the Senate.
