Biden says ‘inflation’ bill funds healthcare, ‘God knows what else’ in bizarre speech
NY Post ^ | August 8, 2022 | By Steven Nelson

President Biden seemed unfamiliar Monday with the specifics of the massive spending bill dubbed the Inflation Reduction Act that Senate Democrats passed Sunday, saying it funds healthcare “and God knows what else.”

Moments earlier, Biden misstated the size of last year’s $1.2 trillion bipartisan infrastructure law while touring flood damage in the Kentucky hamlet of Lost Creek.

“We’ve never done this before, but because of a number of things we got done on a bipartisan basis — like a billion, 200 million-dollar infrastructure project — like what we’re doing today, we passed yesterday, helping take care of everything from health care to God knows what else,” Biden said.

“What we’re going to do is — we’re going to see, for example, they got to put a new water line in in the community,” the president went on, speaking without a prepared script.

“There’s no reason why they can’t at the same time be digging a line that puts in a whole new modern line for Internet connections. Why? Why can’t we do that? So it’s going to be different. We’re going to come back better than before.”

“We’re all Americans. Everybody has an obligation to help. We have the capacity to do this. It’s not like it’s beyond our control. The weather may be out beyond our control for now. But it’s not beyond our control,” Biden said.

Let’s just have the feds build trenches and mandate all the water, gas, internet lines go in this big trench. It’s a gumbo. Throw everything in der cher. LOL!

We'll have to pass it to see what's in it? IIRC I've heard that before.

“and God knows what else.”

Considering that Manchin and Sinema had to go down to the crossroads at midnight and sign in blood to get what they wanted out of the bill, I'm pretty sure that God wasn't the one behind writing it.
