Congress should be a part time job.

No no no. You simply don’t understand. Congress NEEDS a raise because of out of control inflation, because of out of control Congressional spending. See? /s

Elon and Vivek should ask if one single congressperson in the
house read the bill.

The next spending bill should include a 50% pay cut.

This is not a Continuing Resolution. A CR would only take about 12 pages.
This is the Democrats farewell spending bill and an attempt by the Congressional criminals to protect themselves for their actions over the last 4 years.
Looks like Congress did not get the message of the past election.

Did anyone see Thune’s face after the DOGE statement? Turtle’s SwampWhore looked like he got a big bag of turds for Christmas.

Hating the fact that he has to answer to primary voters soon, and that Trump is coming.

Others, including Judicial Watch’s Tom Fitton, noted that the CR will also allow members of Congress to swap out their Obamacare insurance plans for the Federal Employees Health Benefits Program (FEHBP). Per Punchbowl News, “Under the Affordable Care Act, lawmakers and some designated staff are required to use an Obamacare exchange instead of the FEHBP.”

“Rules for thee…” said Fitton.

Rep. Andy Barr (R-KY): “The phone was ringing off the hook today. And you know why? Because they were reading the tweets, the X, from @ElonMusk and Vivek Ramaswamy, and they were telling me that they were, that they were listening to them.. this shows the influence that President Donald Trump, Elon Musk and Vivek Ramaswamy have in this process before they’re even in office.”

They need a law which requires every congressman and Senator to read every page of a bill before they can vote to pass it. They need to initial the bottom and sign under penalty of perjury that they read and understood the bill before voting for it.

The porky bill also exempted congress critters from the Obamacare health insurance marketplace disaster. Allowing congress health insurance from the federal employee health insurance plan.
