The CR has dropped.... It's not going well....

$70,000 raise in the offing.

Kill it.

Open it to the public so everyone can read the 1,500 or so pages. Give all reps a week to read it. None of this shit of passing it to find out what’s in it.
$70,000 raise for who? Congress has blocked a an automatic cost of living raise for 15 years. If the bill passed the max raise would be $6,600 a year. I shed no tears for them, but that doesn’t strike me as outrageous after no raise for 15 years.
 
Going to be interesting to see how long Trump tolerates Elon. Feels like he's running things.

Ramaswamy is also a strong entrepreneur who will be interesting to watch as he takes on the new role of being a teammate.

Could it be Trump prefers trying to convince Musk and Ramaswamy to be on the team rather being spectator critics ?

However, will they accept these new roles?

Trump is sure more exciting than any of his predecessors in my lifetime.
 
Elon and Vivek won't care.
So guys who are worth hundreds of millions to hundreds of billions don’t care if little people get screwed by a government shutdown. Say it ain’t so.

I hope the MAGAts who voted for this shit, and the people who were too high & mighty to just not vote, get hurt first and hardest. Hope they didn’t spend too much on Christmas.

But eggs are expensive!

You know nothing about the Bill!
 
My SS better drop next week or I'm going to give those two a piece of my mind, by God.
DOn't worry, Auto Zone has night time o6penings. You can pick up extra work. (FYI, I've found myself in a pickle as well, so It's not like I don't share some of your concern, it's kind of a joke, also at my own expense).
 
Supposedly there are outbound investment restrictions in the CR….that would be a winner with regards to serious China policy.

Hell, I'm getting all the hours I can stand as it is. It's not that we're really busy, just have had some turnover and they keep tapping me to fill holes.
