What's in the 5,593 pages of the new spending bill?

Two new @smithsonian museums. I doubt a National Museum of the American Latino and a new women's history museum will help families in need. Nor will the politicians words about “reincarnation of living Buddhas…”

$700 million to try to normalize relations with Sudan is a curious use of deficit spending during a national crisis. A billion dollars to Egypt too.

New directives to reduce hydro-fluorocarbon emissions by 85% in the next 15 years must be important to stopping the spread of COVID and getting us back on track... right?

Tax cuts for @NASCAR and a new Presidential Library in North Dakota? This bill has more pork than a slaughterhouse. Everyone gets a cut but you.

All this, just to get the bill past leadership negotiation and to the floor for a rushed vote where members of Congress had less than a day to try to understand all 5,593 pages before trying to pass it.

At least a few lawmakers like @JustinAmash, @RandPaul, @AOC, and @TedCruz stood up to this mess. Americans are getting fleeced, as usual.
