Reuters pulled this earlier.

That headline is DECEPTIVE.

What was defeated was a House amendment to the Senate amendment of this bill, not the bill itself.

Perhaps they are hoping to confuse?

Isn’t this the same bill containing the amnesty for ags?

Either way...it’s time to bring a few DhimmiRats up on treason charges. To provide aid and comfort to the enemy by not funding our military amounts to treason and should be treated as such.
