The two scumbags holding it up keep citing the price tag because being specific about which parts they'd cut would be politically unpopular. The infrastructure bill has already been hacked and slashed, Manchin lied and said he was on board with $4T, then changed his mind when $3.5T came anywhere close to passing. Focus needs to remain on who's freaking this up.

I'd start with cutting West Virginia's highway funding. No need to build any more 4 lane roads leading to nowhere at 65 mph.

Military, yes. The civilians in the building (my director included) are not. Looks like we're getting a CR to keep it funded as is through December, but good on them to wait until two days before a possible shutdown to have an organization wide discussion on any type of plan.
Hey that's the new normal. Better than a shutdown. I'm fortunate that I haven't worked through one long enough to delay my check (I'm essential so no furlough).

Senate approved a temporary CR, sent it to the house.

Yes. I have dodged having actual responsibility for another few months.

My dad always says he's undefeated at tailgating

Maybe it's not I who doesn't know what he's talking about

Today is a good day to look up Steven Donziger if you want to be angry about corruption and the US justice system.

Possibly the funniest of the old Sinema tweets they've dug up

Do you legitimately think that tweet is that interesting?
