    Non-Defence spending decreased 13 Billion with the CR compared to last year.

    I would have preferred the shutdown, but don’t act like it would have accomplished needed goals in opposing the Budget or the Executive Branch.

      Ah sorry I only saw the 6 Billion dollar increase in spending on the defense side.

      But ya saving 13 billion by what slashing IRS, and critical enforcement that would have also been shut down? Like thats the point. They’re cutting critical services and allowing more executive overreach. We’re just gonna stand by all year and watch them strip us of all our resources and leave us with crippling debt. This is foreshadowing for the next round of cuts and taxbreaks.
