Isn’t the House going to put a bunch of nonsense in it?

The bill includes $75 million for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting and $25 million for the Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts. This is supposed to be a bill to deal with the coronavirus pandemic - how many N95 facemasks and respirators could that $100 million buy?

Agreed, but Trump's going to sign it anyway, assuming the House doesn't attempt to sabotage the bill (which remains a real possibility). Disappointed that Trump will sign it, and it is times like this where I become less confident the country can be saved.

“That ($25M for the Kennedy Center) was not my request,” President Trump said. “But you’ve got to give them (Democrats) something, it’s something that they wanted ... you know it works that way.”

I think the fact 96 senators including all republicans voted for this tells you all you need to know about the senate. Big government open border chi com loving hacks and frauds all of them excepting Rand Paul who is sick.
