Best defense is this is the type of math ability I’d expect from a Squad member.

I know some of y'all have expressed concern about this and will be relieved to see the matter resolved.
The House on Thursday passed stalled legislation reopening the Department of Homeland Security, ending a record shutdown at the agency and resolving uncertainty over whether thousands of federal security workers would be paid in May.
The voice vote after a brief debate brought to a close a bitter partisan fight spurred by President Trump’s immigration crackdown and the tactics of federal immigration officers who fatally shot two U.S. citizens during immigration roundups in Minneapolis earlier this year. Negotiations between Democrats and the White House over new restrictions went nowhere, leading to an impasse that cut off funding on Feb. 14.
But it was a dispute among Republicans that has kept the department shuttered for nearly a month, and the G.O.P. had to bypass its own right flank to push through the bill.
Senate Republicans had struck a deal on April 1 to fund everything except for the immigration enforcement agencies, vowing to approve that money separately in a bill that Democrats could not block. But the House G.O.P. refused for weeks to act on the bill, with conservatives balking at voting for a measure that did not fund ICE and border patrol.
House leaders finally took it up on Thursday ahead of a 12-day break, and after the White House requested that the bill be passed immediately.
The legislation pays for department operations through Sept. 30, except for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and parts of border patrol, which received an earlier influx of money from a Republican-only bill.
With some Republicans still refusing to allow the measure to come up, Mr. Johnson was forced to resort to a maneuver that sped it to the floor, limiting debate and requiring a two-thirds supermajority for passage.

Man, if Iran wasn't a thing, we probably for sure would be having a reverse 2022 for these midterms. My dad hates Trump's guts but is also a giant Zionist as a 64-year-old who is ethnically part Jewish (grandpa survived the Holocaust in what was formerly Poland), and I've asked him a probing question of what he would do if a Palestinian was nominated for governor for the Dems for Georgia.
He's said vote for the Republican (but the Palestinian in mind has dropped out).
Today he's straight up said he'd vote for Susan Collins if we were in Maine and not Georgia.
He may come around and vote Jon Ossoff by November, but he was pissed at him for a recent vote as well.
Iran being a thing along with the voter dynamics having changed on who is more likely to turnout outside Presidentials is likely to save it regardless this fall for Dems, but then you could easily see the wrong lessons taken from it by them and have that really bite by 2028 if unemployment is under 6%...

I think he wins but it's so depressing so many on the right will simply do whatever the insane socialist tells them to

He recovered to 64% on polymarket, for whatever that’s worth. He’d been cruising in the 70’s before collapsing to 40 something yesterday.

I'm not sure if a favorable op-ed in the NY Times is what Massie needs, but here it is.
