That dude that lit himself on fire said Trump and Biden were partners now.

What other countries tax their citizens to send money to the US? This. It's been insane from day one. I remember once reading a historical account of a US president from the 19th Century. Can't remember which one. But there was some sort of natural disaster in the US, and he was being urged to authorize money be sent to aid the injured there. His response was that he could find no authority in the Constitution for the Federal Government to do anything like that. That was a time when our elected officials actually cared what authority is delegated to the Federal Government by the Constitution.

The people who voted for this may receive some money if the stock they own goes up and maybe the lobby people like them a bit more.
I bet the next moves are digital currency and no cash.

https://www.informationliberation.com/?id=64404The House under Speaker Mike Johnson on Saturday passed a $95 billion giveaway to Israel, Ukraine and Taiwan combined with a ban on TikTok for allowing criticism of Israel to go viral. The REPO Act to steal frozen Russian assets and give them to Ukraine was also included in the mega-bill. Despite previous promises to tie Ukraine funding to securing America's southern border, zero funds were included for US border security. This is a truly monumental, historic swindle foisted on the public by "MAGA Mike Johnson," the GOP and the Israel Lobby with Donald Trump not only doing nothing to stop it but openly and publicly signaling his support for Johnson. F'n schumer. Needs both arms broke.. or maybe Dan can help with his flying lessons.

Put it on the credit card Joey and Mitchy need to reserve rooms at the old folks home and go away quietly and mj should retire to be their nurse.
They don't even attempt to sneak things through anymore. I think the American people should vote on these types of expenditures and the border issue as well.
The nation is corrupt to the core. The elects are not doing the job.

Famous one, Davy Crockett was scolded, while campaigning, for going along with giving taxpayer monies to a woman in DC whose house burned downed.Taxpayers' money isn't Congress's to give.

Why pick on Schumer? Mike Johnson and Donald J. Trump did this! And Patriotic Conservatives helped, decided free speech is dangerous, privacy isn't a right, foreign assets are theirs to grab. Oh and $95 Billion we do not have is peanuts when it comes to strategically endangering US in volatile foreign wars.

“A billion here, a billion there, and pretty soon you're talking real money” -Senator Everett M. Dirksen
Actually, the money is perilously close to no longer being real, and getting closer…
What fresh Hell is this?

So who said it? Davy went along with the action. Then while he was campaigning back home a constituent told him off, said he would not vote for him. A little fuzzy.....but I believe Davy later made a speech in Congress on the principle.

I always wondered why Trump treated Marjorie Taylor Greene the way he did as well. We have no hope in anyone, including Trump; everyone has been sold out. I once respected Trump but this is the last straw; first was the capital violence and now this. Taxes are going to go through the roof; hold on because it is going to be a long hard ride

Quit giving in inch by inch then looking back to lament the mile behind ya and wonder how to preserve those few feet left in front of ya. They'll never stop until they're stopped. That's a fact.
