I tried to.

“All legislative powers...”

Especially since bills spending money MUST!!! originate in the house

But it is no longer politically expedient to stick to the Constitution. Didn’t Madison promise us this would never happen in one of the Federalist Papers?

Jeesh. Who cares anymore. It’s gone, folks. No rules apply to them, none at all!

A question. Could not a spending bill be written by House member, Senate member, or sitting President, yet the filing must be in the House?

I maybe am wrong, regarding this thought, yet agree all spending money bills MUST originate in the House. And I agree this is not being done presently, as the Senate now introduces spending money bills. I agree this is a clear violation of the Constitution.
