      >Speaker Mike Johnson failed to reinstate a ban on lawmakers’ ability to challenge President Donald Trump’s tariffs when three Republicans crossed party lines to vote with Democrats.

      >The House sank a procedural vote on Tuesday that contained language blocking votes in the chamber that object to Trump’s tariffs through July. The move opens the door for Democrats to move forward with forcing votes to repeal Trump’s tariffs, in a blow to the administration.

      >With razor-thin margins in the House, three Republicans – GOP Reps. **Thomas Massie, Don Bacon and Kevin Kiley** – were enough to sink the vote. Johnson can only afford to lose one Republican vote to advance legislation with his current margin.

      >The Senate has passed at least three resolutions rebuking Trump’s tariffs, but routinely ran into resistance in the House where members were blocked from forcing votes on the matter.

      Emphasis mine.

      About damn time.  Why the hell do we have to pay a tax on products from our friends? This never made sense. Shit, they were never even legal. And if the Supreme Court won’t strike them down, it’s time for the Dems to do their damn job and get as many Republicans in their corner as they can. Our economy demands it.

      He is already shielded since the Supreme Court is too cowardly to rule on it while continuing to allow tariffs to be collected from hardworking Americans.

      Anyone who is still supporting Trump is basically turned around backwards, bent over, spreading their cheeks and saying look at my asshole to America.

      Glad that there is a resemblance of civic duty at least in some GOP members.

      This feels less about loyalty and more about whether Congress wants to keep any authority over trade policy.

      This is what happens when you prioritize party loyalty over the actual impact of policies. Trump’s tariffs have been a mess from the start. Hope more Republicans wake up to this!
