Good cop: Senate Republicans
Bad cop: House Republicans (Johnson)
Crazy cop: Russ Vought + Trump

Vought's plan was always to use impoundment/rescissions/starving people + firing feds to force Dems to surrender on the power of the purse.

What was bad about Lamb?
He actually flipped a district gerrymandered for a Republican to win & consistently voted with his party.
The only thing I ever saw was that he wears a suit & his Dad worked at a bank.
Fetterman wore shorts & hoodies & fooled a bunch of lefties.
