A salute to one of the House Republicans—one of two out of 220—who voted against the America-wrecking budget bill: Brian Fitzpatrick of Bucks County PA, ex-FBI agent who led both their public corruption and election crime units, the last remaining moderate Republican with a bit of backbone.

No this is not honorable, this is performative. Just like Collins and Tillis. If you care about the issue, persuade your buddies to kill the bill. Without that scope of influence, you too are worthless like the compromised party you belong to!

A dying species. There are still a few wandering around but they seem to have lost the ability to speak.
