From the article, Linda shoots off her mouth:
Some Republicans, such as Sen. Lindsey Graham (SC) have expressed concern over portions of the bill, such as defense spending. “I respect Kevin McCarthy. I want to raise the debt ceiling. It would be irresponsible not to do it. I want to control spending. I’d like to have a smaller IRS. I’d like to claw back the unused COVID money. And I know you can’t get to perfect, but what I will not do is adopt the Biden defense budget and call it as success,” Graham said on Fox News Sunday.
“Kevin said the defense is fully funded. If we adopt the Biden defense budget, it increases defense spending below inflation. A 3.2 increase is below inflation. The Biden defense budget takes Navy from 298 ships to 291, at time when China is going to increase their navy by almost a third,” he added.

Am I one of few veterans who think adding more bloat to the Pentagon is a bad idea?
It would only mean pennies, but Congress needs to cut by 50% the number of general/flag officer billets in the military. Get rid of the "Mr. Pappys" and their posses.
I'm glad I never served above Battalion level. Being at Division/Brigade staff would be mind numbing.
