Spending bills that will never pass the Senate and get to Biden's desk.

More shuck and jive from the gutless Republicans.

Give him a break. He needs to raise some funds. He'll slow back down as soon as he gets them.

He knows the proposal has no chance of going anywhere.

He’s just throwing red meat to the base to stimulate fund raising.

Wash. Rinse. Repeat.

Well they shot their wad with the Ukraine and other funding in the current FY. They could have put riders on all of those bills. Won’t pass, well cut off funding for everything. But remember deepstate Johson was mentored by RINO Boehner.

Why havent they been using spending bills since they took the House to force the hand of the Maoists? Answer, they give the Maoists what they want hoping they will like them and we can all get along. Maoists win everything and still act like a$$holes.

Shut down that new FBI building, do whatever it takes.
There’s a lot of vacant real estate on Kensington Ave., in Philadelphia they can move into.
