A major coalition of moderate House lawmakers is endorsing the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure deal in the Senate, it announced Tuesday, marking a huge step forward as lawmakers wrestle with how to push the legislation through the lower chamber.

In a statement, the Problem Solvers Caucus — a bipartisan group of 29 Democrats and 29 Republicans in the lower chamber of Congress — said they supported the compromise agreement, adding it closely aligns with their proposal.

“The bipartisan Problem Solvers Caucus strongly supports the Senate infrastructure framework, which is closely aligned with our own ‘Building Bridges’ proposal released last month,” the group said, noting their own $1.25 trillion compromise package.

What kind of morons deem this a truly bipartisan effort, when the only Republicans associated with this are super RINOs? The Republicans are SUCKERS and fall for the same Dimmocommie crap every time. I am absolutely disgusted and feel helpless to preserve the quality of life for myself and my country.

It is insane.

Totally uneccesary.

Republicans are weak and stupid. Democrats are just plain evil.

And We the People are soooo screwed.

Legislative TREASON. Swampers specialty.

And not a single shovel will ever hit the pavement.

By the time the politicians and their families, PACs, front middlemen, mid-middlemen, backshop middlemen and finally politicians and their families are finished no actual work will ever be done.

It is insane. Totally unnecessary.

As is all the unemployment "benefits".

"A major coalition of moderate lying Democrat dumb*ss and backstabbing RINO House lawmakers is endorsing the $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure deal in the Senate..." May a cup of donkey piss pollute their Starbucks lattes.

The “Problem Solvers caucus” Really? That’s their effing job as a Congresscritter. These people disgust me. They spend time coming up with acronyms and cutesy sounding names/memes for their ‘paid by the page legislation...

In the NY Post article there is a Getty pic of a bunch of rats and RINOS gathered around a lecturn that has this sign on it, "COVID-19 Emergency Relief Fund." Somebody explain to me what this relief fund has to do with infrastructure which is defined as:

The basic facilities, services, and installations needed for the functioning of a community or society, such as transportation and communications systems, water and power lines, and public institutions including schools, post offices, and prisons.

Only a trillion? Why not a quadrillion? A quintillion? C’mon, man!

[Mr. Blond]

Still waiting for the potholes to be filled from Obama’s trillion dollar infrastructure bill.

It’s not their money. What do they care?
