We just passed a budget bill with $730 billion in domestic spending this week.

The horseshoe (both from the left and right) has been on this "why don't you care about Americans" nationalism thing, but they're going to have to come up with something else as an excuse.

6. Ugh, the "Democrats do NOTHING" thing. Thank you, Democrats, for getting things done!

I see that The Squad voted against the budget bill, wonder why.

8. There is a record of how legislators rank on voting, somewhre around here.

Its not outside the boundaries of questioning why some rank as they do.

7. Thank You President Biden 💙

And thank for posting this mcar.

We need to do a daily applause forum just for the skilled & generous accomplishments of our President & Vice President, & our damn hard fighting Democratic Leaders.

The whiners can stop whining. 🙄

11. Agree completely

9. "they're going to have to come up with something else as an excuse."

no they won't. They don't and never have had a problem with lying about things of this nature.

[mcar]

12. This is true

but Democrats presenting a united front can thwart this.

[Ferrets are Cool]

13. I love that they have the truth to tell

NOW SPREAD THE WORD!!!

15. So let's get on top of the narrative and stay on top of it

Democrats should be way out in front when it comes to the direction the country is headed. But we are not. Why not?

We have an election to win and this is the kind of news that contributes to it.

16. what does it say about us as a country that we need an anti-lynching act?

17. K&R

18. the White House ought to break down the omnibus bill in terms that show benefits

I know they're busy, but we out here really are clueless when it comes to an omnibus bill.
