To Cover the Farmers and Disaster Relief........Biden Didn't !

Tax cuts for the rich

[@mitchellmelkin4078]

@cmack3625, As said above, to carved out the room for the coming tax giveaways to corporations and the wealthy, but at the same time, pin the responsibility for a suspended debt ceiling on Democrats, before the transition, to use as a cudgel to continue blaming them for everything.

Great.. the Era of non-politically educated people who are attempting to run a government. It'd going to be such a ka ka storm for 4 years. 😢

[@reecom9884]

It’s a bipartisan agreement since there is no majority party in Congress to carry over the funding to keep the government running until March when a new budget is introduced. It was a done deal until Trump at the last minute stopped it. In baseball it would be called a self-inflicted or unforced error by Trump to cause this mess.
