The cr wasn't a significant change from the existing budget.

We’re told this time there’s method to the madness.  That this keeps things rolling while the administration and Congress make adjustments in the future.  Congress plans on using reconciliation while the administration exerts Presidential impoundment.  We’ll have to see what happens.

President Musk isn't cutting jack squat either. Since he refuses to touch any large spending programs.

Deficit actually increased $4t last month, despite DOGE. What a joke they are. Pathetic.

great question. because he raises a lot of money from rich NY donors. That’s how Pelosi rose to power too, but out of SF. That’s how you rise in the democratic party. 

If you’re wondering why he rolled over so quick on this, he has a book tour starting next week. He has “more important” things to do lol.
