Dubbed "the ugliest omnibus bill ever" by the conservative Wall Street Journal editorial board Wednesday, the massive spending bill includes tens of billions of dollars in new aid to Ukraine along with bipartisan policy changes on Medicaid, new disaster relief funding, and investments in programs addressing child care, nutrition assistance and affordable housing.
However, the bill also includes numerous concessions to the Democratic side to the tune of hundreds of billions of dollars.

For the next several days at least, Democrats will still control both chambers, leaving little incentive for Republicans to play along.
Graham—like several of his other colleagues—appears to be calling McCarthy's bluff.
Ahead of the Wednesday vote, Graham told Axios reporter Alayna Treene that while he planned to vote for the omnibus bill, it would be "the last time" he does.
"I told all our guys that this is the LAST TIME we're gonna vote for a train wreck,"

No it isn’t ya liar Lindsay. GTH too.
A new Federal Fiscal Year begins in Oct. 2023.
I support the GOP establishment.
It can get worse. Lots worse. Just watch.
cuz we don’t have the votes to make a difference.
Lindsey is such a total fag.
Always havi everything both ways all the time, with extra drama.
Lady Linda is a closet democrat. I suspect that is not all that is in the closet.
You do wonder what the Fib and CAI have on Lindsey. PDJT was shown numerous times golfing with him. What kind of evil did Lindsey try to plant in our President?
This will be the last time
This will be the last time
Maybe the last time
I don’t know
It’s the last time until the next time.
“THIS IS THE LAST TIME.”

Sorry.
It shoulda been the “last time” 40 freaking years ago!
Well, maybe he knows this is the final straw that destroys the country as it pushes the US into bankruptcy. When that happens, he and a bunch of others in DC won’t have to worry about voting albeit they may have to worry about how they did vote in the past which got us to that point.
Graham is like the abusive boyfriend/husband who always offends-—beats woman half to death-— & then promises to “Never do it again”...and promptly re-offends.
“Winning ugly” is never a comfortable fit. But “losing ugly”, total surrender and abandonment of all vestiges of honor or judgment, is even less attractive.
This is about as ugly a loss as could be conjured up, the anal rape of a badly bludgeoned victim. Humiliation beyond redemption.
One last time...for the 100th time...until the year he’s up for reelection.
Quick, somebody pee on Lindsey’s pants! The whole place night catch on fire. Oh wait, maybe that would be a good thing.
One question remains,does linda swallow or spit it out?
Translation: The media is engaging in narrative control, trying to sell the illusion that the GOP has significant resistance to the Establishment within their ranks. Got to give the deplorables some hope and convince them to keep believing in the system. What’s comical is that they choose Graham as their Conservative hero, standing up to McCarthy, etc. This is story telling at its finest.
