Let’s have a thorough audit of where the $900B TARP infrastructure “shovel ready jobs” money went.

Actually, only a fraction of that was designated for infrastructure in the first place.

We'd be better off with Redd Foxx as Transportation Secretary.
Even in his current condition.

Without the headband, as of late?

How about we zero out the budget for the Federal Department of Transportation
and turn their responsibilities over to the states?

I bet Lebron would make a better Congressman than most of the members in there now.

LeBron James? Why? Because he’s got a lot of big bucks? Just have your IRS take what they need from James and threaten him with prison if he complains about it.

If they want broad public support for extending the trust fund, they should add restrictions to how the money is spent. The highway fund should be for highways and highways only. No light rail, bike paths and other liberal constituency building spending. HIGHWAYS ONLY!

Abolish Davis-Bacon, and you won’t need no stinkin’ superstar.

It went to put sidewalks, bumpy wheelchair ramps, and crosswalk signal lights in places where no one, literally, ever walks. When my Facebook account was still active, it was a hobby of mine to post pictures of these intersections that I took driving out in the country. Used to annoy my leftist “friends.”

Try firing a couple thousands of DOT federal-level employees.
They don’t “build” anything - only rule and regulate before the funds get sent elsewhere.

That’s hitting below the belt. I’d like to apologize to the friends and family of Lawanda Page for that comparison.
