Sheeesh, ONLY a mere $9 billion out of a $6 trillion budget and 213 of them ( including some Republicans ) can’t even muster the courage to vote for it!

As I said before, we PRACTICALLY have 2 more Democrats in the Senate.

Oen would think Elon Musk would tweet out a little “thank you” to Trump and the GOP for putting his DOGE cuts into law. But no, that juvenile ass clown can’t stop posting puerile attacks on Trump regarding Epstein.

“One would think Elon Musk would tweet out a little “thank you” to Trump and the GOP for putting his DOGE cuts into law.”

You must be joking. They resisted him at every turn. The GOPe story is that he only found 9 billion. He found orders of magnitude more than that. Calling this the DOGE bill is a straight up insult.

You said it exactly. Musk is precocious and painfully naive in many respects.

9 Bil is not a lot in the great scheme of things. I’d be happy with the rounding on those accounts however

Musk belongs in an insane asylum!

And we need to somehow get rid of the damned ALWAYS VOTES WITH THE DEMS RINOS! But at least it has been passed.
