Senate passes $1 trillion continuing resolution 79-18
With friends like this, who needs enemies? The Republican Senate today passed the $1 trillion continuing resolution that contains none of the promised cuts to the federal budget promised by the Republican Party and by Donald Trump.
The vote was 79-18. The resolution now heads to the White House, where Trump is expected to sign it eagerly.
A look at the names in the Senate who voted against this bill essentially lists the few remaining real conservatives left. Such people are now a minority, surrounded by corrupt deal makers who have no interest in the needs of the nation.
On Christmas Eve 1968 three Americans became the first humans to visit another world. What they did to celebrate was unexpected and profound, and will be remembered throughout all human history. Genesis: the Story of Apollo 8, Robert Zimmerman's classic history of humanity's first journey to another world, tells that story, and it is now available as both an ebook and an audiobook, both with a foreword by Valerie Anders and a new introduction by Robert Zimmerman.
The ebook is available everywhere for $5.99 (before discount) at amazon, or direct from my ebook publisher, ebookit. If you buy it from ebookit you don't support the big tech companies and the author gets a bigger cut much sooner.
The audiobook is also available at all these vendors, and is also free with a 30-day trial membership to Audible.
"Not simply about one mission, [Genesis] is also the history of America's quest for the moon... Zimmerman has done a masterful job of tying disparate events together into a solid account of one of America's greatest human triumphs."--San Antonio Express-News

Yeah, freedom is impopular. What do you think that the majority will do about it?
Trump is not a moral white knight saving your princess. He’s a ruthless pragmatic bringer of his own power with the sword held high as expressed by the will of the people’s vote. There will be blood. That’s why people voted for him. To draw this blood.
The trivial mechanics of Obamacare will be take care of later. When the Democrats beg for it.
Why did Graham vote nay, unless there wasn’t enough money for war in Ukraine … ?
Well, we tried.
But what are they going to do when they run out of other people’s money?
PeterF–
They will just print more money.
Well done to my state of Iowa. Both Senators voted no. Also, I was surprised to see Sasse as a non-vote. I assume he would have voted “nay” had he voted.
