Are you ok with this new spending right now @luthervol ?

Not really. Especially the extra $45 billion in defense repubs are pushing for.

Last month, the House appropriators passed a fiscal 2023 defense bill offering about $761.7 billion in total funding, a $32.2 billion increase from the current fiscal year. The figure was in line with the amount President Biden asked for in his budget request earlier this year, but has drawn pushback from Republicans who say more is needed amid rising inflation.
Republicans have instead pointed to the recent version of the fiscal 2023 National Defense Authorization Act passed by the Senate Armed Services Committee, which provided a $45 billion increase above Biden’s request in defense dollars, as a more workable number.

I agree the budget shouldn't be increased at the request of neocons or Peter Henderson. Let the military get its act together first.

It’s ~11% of the spend you have a real problem with?

What about the other $350B in there?

Got to be a very depressing job having to defend idiot Biden & his failing policies each day.
He/she/they looks like they're fed up with this BS each day that comes along. She knows each day she's lying to America in order to try & save face for an idiot boss like Joe Biden.

That's why I will continue to say that Jen Psaki was the GOAT. No one will ever come close to her skill level. 1st ballot HOF'er.

I felt she usually did a nice job bobbing and weaving when Doocy was trying to land shots.

Doocys ask good questions but he is not abrasive which is very professional. The only thing is the others in the room are weak and leaves him on an island with no follow-up to the questions he ask. He doesn't get but a few questions and they don't come back to the same press.

The most unaccountable administration in history. None of them have resigned because of the pressure to perform. They might as well eat cheetos and drink a beer all day. Underachievers that fail up.

You are on to something. If they just did nothing for the next 2 1/2 years, it might be an improvement.

Seriously

Texas is in the wrong, here. You can't suckle at the teet of Uncle Sam without agreeing to his stipulations. Additionally, LGBTQ persons have as much right to government food assistance as any other American.

It’s not about the food assistance to LGBTQ. The issue is that the feds are requiring every school system to agree to their trans policies or else

I thought it was already against the law to discriminate based on sex/ gender . I know nothing about it but the little I read in the article , it sounds like they are saying the government didn’t follow SOP and notify them about a change in guidance and feed back from states . 🤷‍♂️
