The Senate on Tuesday evening voted 70-25 to advance the $1.7 trillion Omnibus spending bill and open debate.
This is just the first procedural vote.
The latest spending bill is full of special interest earmarks and pork.
The bill includes $45 billion to Ukraine, $7.5 million in LGBTQ programs, Jan 6 prosecution funding and more.
There is no money for border security.
3,000 pages that no one has read.
Senate Republicans are giving away the incoming GOP Majority House’s power of the purse until September 2023.

P
No need for the exclusive report.
I already felt pain in my wallet.
> 70-25
We have a lot of traitors.
Stupid party strikes again.
And we keep voting for those backstabbing Bastards. Please tell me why?
Good for them! They won’t have to bother going back to work for a whole year.
What we were talking about on Sunday.
Idiot RINOs.
The Senate and the lame duck sessions of Congress must be reformed. There is only one way to do that: an Article V Conference of the States.
This is a total disgrace. Both parties are treasonous. Many thousands of unvetted aliens will be pouring across our unguarded border and spreading out around the country.
Trafficked children, drug dealers, gang members, terrorists, whatever. Several million probably this year and for the next two, or more years.
I cannot believe what is happening.
Words fail me.
Weeks away from taking control of the money and these despicable traitors join the enemy.
The good news? I guess we’ll speed up the process of our nation’s ruin so that we can begin rebuilding from the ashes.
I just wish my children wouldn’t have to go through the hard part.
I am shocked, shocked I tell you.
No time to read it, got to get out before the snow storm.
Zelensky plans to pander before Senate no longer required, House pandering still on schedule.
Well, 25 is better than we used to get against this sort of
thing. It’s better than it used to be.
They blow billions of our tax dollars and think nothing of it. Yet, we, the People are to keep track of every $600 expenditure we make....talk about hypocrisy.
It’s just one big happy UniParty pig trough party in in DC....all funded by us.
There needs to be a full-blown, nation-wide strike and tax revolt in this country....BIG TIME.
You could always get a job at the IRS, those 100,000 new jobs will be fully funded now.
This is not America
True, it used to be consistently around 15. That was always the real party breakdown.
I heard there are about 2,500 earmarks (payoffs) to the Democrats who crafted this bill.
All the Republican Senators had to do was vote against it until the House Republicans take office in January to stop all that.
