A proposal to end the government shutdown and avoid default orchestrated by Republican Leader Mitch McConnell and Democratic Leader Harry Reid includes a $2 billion earmark for a Kentucky project.
Language in a draft of the McConnell-Reid deal (see page 13, section 123) provided to WFPL News shows a provision that increases funding for the massive Olmsted Dam Lock in Louisville from $775 million to nearly $2. 9 billion.

Thirty pieces of silver.

The Senate is controlled by greedy pigs that ignore the
US Constitution, that ignore ‘Equal under the Law’,
and that have ARMED al Qaeda against the American people.
Bevin can recycle Ted Yoho’s campaign ad:

The house should strip in out and send it back to the senate.

People in KY are so uninformed that I bet most don’t even know that McC went through an embarrassing humiliation today.
These beltway prostitutes are unbelievably expensive.
Outrageous. Out and out corruption.
This is the real GOP at work.
The new senator pothole.
Guess all the talk about Reid putting the fork into McConnell with is post deal talk is not correct. McConnell will ride it through the election.
They won’t strip it out. No chance of that. They all scratch each other’s backs.
Levin is reading this right now. Great get barmag
Glad we have people who have to read these things for us.
Here’s the final bill:

Here’s the offending passage:
“SEC. 123. Section 3(a)(6) of Public Law 100–676 is
2 amended by striking both occurrences of ‘‘$775,000,000’’
3 and inserting in lieu thereof, ‘‘$2,918,000,000’’. “
Looks entirely innocent, until you know what Public Law 100-676 is.
