"Covid Relief Bill" Contains a Huge Amount of Spending on Nancy Pelosi's Pet Leftwing Agenda Items, Like, Again, $40 Million for Her Precious Kennedy Center

We're spending money on a publicly-subsidized performance center whose tickets go to politicians and their corporate crony friends, even though you're not allowed to sit in an audience?

She has been trying to smuggle that into covid bills for a year.

And apparently, Super-Tough Guy "Cocaine Mitch" has given in.

And it only gets worse.

Here are some selected "Covid Emergency Relief" items:

This bill is so filthy with pork, and rushed through as an emergency measure so that no one has the time to read what the fuck it says, that even AOC objects to it:

.@AOC is right.

It’s ABSURD to have a $2.5 trillion spending bill negotiated in secret and then—hours later—demand an up-or-down vote on a bill nobody has had time to read. #CongressIsBroken https://t.co/EQp8BfRBHj

Had enough yet?

What is the point of electing Republicans if this is the bullshit they force on us?
