In the dead of night the Senate passes $1.2 trillion government funding bill, sending it to Biden

Constipation is actually concern that the Democrats have no problem spending 1/3rd more than we generate.

Oh I'm sure the Democrats would be happy to lower that deficit...Oh wait...They already did.

BWAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAH

 

[d0gbreath]

We the people loose in all of this.

You need to tighten up.

I think it's about there, if not very close and rising.
The Congressional Budget Office (CBO) projects that interest payments will total $870 billion in fiscal year 2024 and rise rapidly throughout the next decade — climbing from $951 billion in 2025 to $1.6 trillion in 2034. In total, net interest payments will total $12.4 trillion over the next decade.Feb 9, 2024

the only WEF reset they are predicting is a right-wing movement and turn towards authoritarianism and the right-wing turn to make a NEW WORLD ORDER....

Baloney. Your the ones who think GOVT IS GOD.

So sell that BS elsewhere.

WEF is looking to reset the world clownm

 

[Oddball]

True, but it still would have hurt us much worse, by not passing this budget...

No, it wouldn't have....$1 trillion could have been shaved off that monstrosity, and none of us would have noticed.

Schumer could shoot someone on 5th Avenue, and you wouldn't give a shit.

WASHINGTON — The Senate voted 74-24 early Saturday morning to pass a sweeping $1.2 trillion government funding bill after heated last-minute negotiations caused senators to breach the midnight deadline to avert a shutdown.

But the funding lapse was brief and technical, having no meaningful impact as the White House said it has "ceased shutdown preparations" due to a Senate agreement, which came after Republicans demanded votes on a series of amendments.


The legislation, which passed the House on Friday morning by a vote of 268-134, now goes to President Joe Biden, who has said he'll sign it into law. It completes a turbulent government funding process during the divided government, featuring a year of haggling, six months of stopgap bills and intense partisan clashes over money and policy along the way.

Once Biden signs the package into law, the full government will be funded through the end of September, after Congress passed a previous $459 billion tranche of money earlier this month. The total spending level for the fiscal year is $1.659 trillion.

Passed in the dead of night as usual....The Firm wins again....America loses.

I can't find a for or against list yet but you can bet it's the usual gop pukes that voted for it.

Covid is over, why are they still spending at Covid levels? Funny how we went from $4.5 billion to $7.2 billion budgets overnight.

Don't worry, Congress will jack up taxes and cut Medicare and Social Security.

It's not a budget.
It's another pathetic stop gap.

See you in a couple months when we revisit this again, and again, and again...etc.

 

[JackOfNoTrades]

I don’t think so…America is pissed at dems…

I wouldn't bet the farm on it. That bet that I had that the Senate would fall back into Republican hands is now in jeopardy, thanks to You-Know-Who and his merry band of MAGAites.

Because that’s the best we can get out of the dysfunctional GOP

I bet when your parents told you "this will hurt me more than it does you" you believed them, and blamed yourself.

The failure is bipartisan.

It was insidious what with all the earmark pork they passed.....In the dead of night.

 

[Moonglow]

You do know that Trump told Johnson to pass the spending bill so there wouldn't be a government shutdown blamed on the GOP.
