    You know, I tough it might be good to fact-check this screenshot. It might be missrepresenting something. So I did a little digging and it turns out that this is based on a document provided by the Republican Study Committee (about three quateres of house rebuplicans are members).

    I read the Dokument document (you can find it here) and HOLY HELL THIS IS THE WORST THING I HAVE READ IN A LONG WHILE.

    It’s so full of lies, half-truths and so, so, so much finger pointing to the “woke socialist Biden Administration” (yes, that is a quote), so removed from reality… It was painfull to read. There is so much utter nonsense in that one document.

    Anyhow. The headline is dead on. And it’s far far from the worst thing that they are proposing.

    I need to bang my head against a wall now untill i have erased the memory of reading this bullshit.

      It’s all about elimination of all federal regulations:

      Rep. Bill Posey’s (R-FL) Article I Restoration Act, which would sunset all regulations after 3 years.

      Require the federal government to have a “yellow pages test.” If a good or service can be found in the “yellow pages,” government should not be doing it.[14]

      Fucking dinosaurs don’t realize that they haven’t even printed a yellow pages in around a decade. Last time I received one it was like 30 pages long for a major city.

      Talk about pandering to their elderly base. Most Gen Z probably don’t even know what a “yellow pages” is.
