Read most of the bill. It's ridiculous. It's a payout to cronies and a lot of government takeover. Government is a waste of taxpayers money and the largest welfare program we have.

With Americans strapped for cash. This is like getting blood from a stone. How about let’s payoff the debt we have instead of just keep adding more to it? Like average Americans have to do. Pelosi thinks because Joe’s in the WH she’s got a blank check & she plans to use it

I know what ill be doing...

About time

All mankind on the way out of the Bible will live eternity going right or left.

They all agree on fuckinv the poor though

The SCRAPS act.

Save America. Kill the bill. All Americans are depending on Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema to remain brave and steadfast against the radical leftists' attempts to ram their socialist agenda through Congress.
