Well, with the incoming terrorists that will be running things in a few weeks, brace for a lot more.
This guy was everyone's hope?
This is who he is, a pushover.
I think it's pretty well known that the democrats do not have spines.
That and how many campaigned as transphobic this election?
Fuck off Joe. Stop doing Trump's dirty work for him.
Pocket veto that shit.
This whole thread is fucking disappointing. Yes it's super shitty that tricare isn't going to cover trans kids. We just had a budget showdown where Elon fucking Musk tried to tank the entire nation. Biden signed this shit and said he hated that he had to do it because it excluded trans kids.
I'm no Biden fan but holy shit get your course corrected and get ready friends because this ain't shit compared to what's to come.
Agreed. The political ignorance of the common American is why it is so easy able to drive these wedges.
Anyone pissed at Biden about this is not a politically smart person and are easily manipulated becuase they not only lack political intelligence but lack the ability to gauge their lack of political intelligence.
They could have just not funded the government/military, I would be fine with that.
The fuck? Did Joe fall and bump his head?
🤦♂️
Edit: I see why...
almost $900 billion defense bill
Yup, gotta keep the Military Industrial Complex going... 🙄
If he vetoed the bill over this, Congress probably just wouldn't pass a bill to fund the military! It's must pass! This is our one shot! /s
And as we all know, if the military goes without approved funding limits, it completely breaks down and becomes useless overnight.
Sure would be nice if every single citizen of the united states gets to personally bitch slap every member of congress, presidential cabinet, vp, pres, etc... When a completely unrelated thing gets shoved into a bill.
There is 0 reason an (hypothetical) infrastructure bill for new sprinklers in hospitals needs to include a provision that Wisconsin dairy farms get a new milking machine. Those two things have nothing to do with each other. So why are they in the same bill.
If you want it to be a bill, put it in its own separate proposal.
Ha, us fools are so blind. It really is both sides, and we've all been bamboozled.
