Well, if this doesn’t take the cake. I mean the whole platter of angel food. No, make it the whole darn bakery. As if this administration and the Democrats have not shown enough insufferable hubris, incredible hypocrisy, unparalleled arrogance, and a monumental entitlement mentality, this would certainly qualify.
Multiple news outlets are reporting that after the House passed the $1.7 trillion omnibus pork sandwich last Friday, said bill is being flown, yes FLOWN, to St. Croix for Biden’s signature. Biden is reportedly ringing in the new year at the home of a wealthy donor there. He must sign the bill by Dec. 30. And since he is sunning his bum in the Virgin Islands, the White House is flying it down to him on the taxpayer’s nickel. And I’m pretty sure they didn’t put it in a FedEx overnight envelope or drop it off at the UPS store. Does this sound like a headline from The Onion or The Babylon Bee? Most Biden news stories do, but this time, it is an unfortunate, stomach-turning fact. Feast your eyes, sir or madam, on this tweet from Fox News White House Correspondent Edward Lawrence:
A White House Official tells me the Omnibus Bill is in possession of the White House. It has to be signed by Dec 30th. The Official says at some point it will be transported to St Croix for POTUS to sign to make the Dec 30th deadline. #POTUS

Mind-blowing. If you are disgusted, you aren’t the only one. Dan Crenshaw tweeted this:
The omnibus — filled with wacko climate change initiatives — is being flown more than 1,000 miles to be signed because the President couldn’t be bothered to stick around and do his job. https://t.co/sNWs5aYveE

Slow Joe and Dr. Jill are in St. Croix, so the whopper spending bill is flown to there for his signature?
How much will it cost us to fly it down to him? Will the aides flying with the bill get to have a few days in V.I.?
Why couldn’t Biden have waited for the bill to get to the WH before going on his vacation?
I’m sure he wants the photo op to show him signing it and showing us all how hard he works even when he’s on vacation. Since it has to be signed by tomorrow I expect the press to be ushered into his presence. No question, please, he’s on a well-earned vacation.
Spit.
Holy Double Cross, Batman!
What is a pocket veto?
ARROGANCE knows no boundaries.
Have these freeloaders ever heard of DocuSign? It’s become a standard practice since COVID.
What will the “doctor” wife of the prune be wearing for the pic?
Judging from past photos, I’m putting my money on a low cut floral patterned moo moo that looks like a couch cover.
Excellent observation! Who else?
Probably on the island with a bunch of little girls.
Use the electronic signature method. Don’t need to fly the fricking bill to Virgin Islands.

Couldn’t p they just fax or scan the signature page?
It’s not like Biden or any of member read the damn bill anyway.
I so despise these people.
She dressed inappropriately at my high school all the time.
the first family is not paying for use of the home,
isn’t this an ‘in kind contribution’ ?? And, is income tax is due under the ‘Wiesselberg ‘ precedent ?
And, why can’t the signing wait until Jan 2 when Bobblehead returns? Are electronic signatures not permissible in the interim?
They showed him signing it on Fox’s Special report Tonight.
Maybe the flight path is through the Bermuda Triangle
It depends on whether Congress is in session or not.
If yes, it’s a law.
If not, it’s a pocket veto.
I suppose the wealthy donor wants him to sign it.
