[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]So at the end of the day, the Congress negotiated a deal, Musk tanked it, the House passed a clean bill and then the senate restored everything in the negotiated deal except the things Trump wanted were excluded.

Way to go Elon, or something.

Wrong. The senate did not restore everything in the negotiated deal. The specific funds in the 1500 mega deal were stripped out (example - nearly four percent pay raise for Congress) but congress retains the right to spend up to that level, piece meal. Yes, way to go Elon. Shine a light on the spending. If congress wants a pay raise, do a standalone bill so the American people can see it - don’t try to sneak it in in a CR.[/quote]

Sure. They stripped out rounding errors (*golf clap*). At least Trump didn’t get what he wanted. [/quote]

Rounding errors?  The pork is gone. You seem to note understand what happened.  It’s the difference between maintaining a credit limit and actual spending, and changing how and when it occurs.  Get off MSNBC.  [/quote]

Not even a rounding error. Aside, pork like farm aid resulting from Trump’s poor policies is still in it. [/quote]
