YouTube Description

as posted by the channel

Republican House Speaker Mike Johnson franticly calls for people to pray for budget resolution to get enough votes to pass while threatening the defecting House Republicans who could kill the bill Donald Trump supports which would bring devastating cuts to critical programs, including medicaid, medicare, snap benefits and more, to benefit Trump's tax cuts for the ultra-wealthy. John Iadarola and Yasmin Kahn break it down on The Damage Report.

Mike Johnson boxed in by House GOP defectors on "big, beautiful bill"

"The list of no's is growing for House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), and time isn't on his side.

Why it matters: Flipping votes on a budget resolution isn't impossible, but it could force Johnson to delay bringing it to the floor.

⏰ That would further undermine the House's effort to get "one big, beautiful bill" over to the Senate by the end of April.

💥 Two current public "no" votes, Reps. Tim Burchett (R-Tenn.) and Victoria Spartz (R-Ind.), say the spending cuts aren't enough.

🙉 At least one other Republican is a private "no" vote, Burchett told reporters Monday evening."
