Breaking News: Spending Bill Heist Analysis!

With the National Debt already at crushing level and Americans staunchly against increased money going to Ukraine, the 1500+ page bill that Mike Johnson attempted to slide in at the zero hour rang foul across the board. What was in it? Not what you would expect from a Republican controlled congress who just took control of the executive and the legislative branches.

Elon Musk, who will be taking a leading role in cutting spending for the incoming Trump administration, weighed in early Wednesday to opposes Speaker Johnson's spending bill -- “this bill should not pass.”

Failure of Congress to pass a spending bill by Friday night will result in a government shutdown - something that last happened during the Clinton presidency (twice) over budget disputes.

Watch the video for an accounting of the hundreds of billions to be spent and what they were trying to jam in there. Highlights include almost everything that bothered everyday Americans in the last election (transparency, big pharma corruption, censorship, military spending, etc). The big picture is this reads as a last minute backroom deal from to squeeze in as much corruption as possible before the new guard comes in.

President-elect Donald Trump and Vice President-elect JD Vance argued that the 1,547-page interim spending bill "would give sweetheart provisions for government censors and for Liz Cheney." They also decried how the package would "make it easier to hide the records of the corrupt January 6 committee—which accomplished nothing for the American people and hid security failures that happened that day" and "would also give Congress a pay increase while many Americans are struggling this Christmas."

Trump and Vance are advocating to increase the debt ceiling on "Biden's watch," rather than having to deal with the debate in mid-2025 during their new administration.

Trump and Vance said they want a streamlined spending bill that "doesn't give Chuck Schumer and the Democrats everything they want," arguing that instead "Republicans want to support our farmers, pay for disaster relief, and set our country up for success in 2025."
