But that Tomi semi-celebrity said all of our science marching was political wankery.

Where is your God now?

 

[CrocMother]

Is there some hidden horror that I'm missing?

The bullet points look pretty damn good.

 

[Slayven]

So members of congress was in Washington hammering this out, while Trump was at a rally in PA?

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

A government construction project can't even get impact studies for 1.5 mil

1.5 billion from the article.

I guess it will be more clear when the new budget plan is actually presented but I'd like to see how it compares to the horror show that was that initial proposed budget plan.

They egged him on to go do a rally so stuff could get done.

 

[Zolo]

If he hasn't already, can't wait to read more Trump tweets about the "failing" checks and balances of the government hindering his ability to ram through his campaign promises.

If he's smart, he'll talk about how he reached a great deal with everyone happy while getting increased funding for border security and military (that got through right?). His supporters will eat it up anyway.

[Angelus Errare]

el oh fucking el

 

[Chumly]

What does that mean exactly?

Yea read that 20 times and still don't understand it

Does it mean that congress officially approved the insurance payments or not. I want to know if trump can change his mind tomorrow and defund it

 

[MidgarBlowedUp]

I'm wondering the same thing.

 

[CrocMother]

eh, maybe if he hadn't been clambering about the wall, but he was just on twitter a few days ago ranting about it. It's way too noticeable an absence for him to claim complete victory here.

 

[Vestal]

I'm going to need a new image soon. This one is starting to get overused..

 

[Zackat]

how much more funding for NIH?

 

[CarpeDeezNutz]

What's the spin gonna be?

Is there some trap card in there?

 

[Aselith]

Good lord, this is a vicious beating

Trump secures 15 billion dollars to fight Isis. EZ spin.

 

[BoogieWoogie]

We are literally at a point where everyone can just wave off Trump as their crazy Grandpa as nothing he ever does it getting through.

What's the spin gonna be?

"Tonight on Fox News, Trump dances around Democrats like a demon's whisper, getting much needed additional funding for border security. Major win for our President. Once he details his amazing plan to defeat Isis, more money on the way!"

 

[Lumination]

The first time I've taken a breath since election day.

 

[ffdgh]

And on his 100th day no less.

 

[Armaros]

what the fuck

how?

The GOP would have shut down a government they completely control. Thats how.

 

[Nappuccino]

1.5 billion from the article.

Dang, yeah. That's a my bad there. I've edited my original post to be accurate.

 

[Protein]

LOLLL

 

[Aselith]

Any word on if proposed cuts to stuff like National Endowment for the Arts and Public Broadcasting went through? Would those be in there?

 

[Suikoguy]

Wait, they compromised THAT much?
I really hope that when it matters, Democrats are able to come together to pass a budget if in a similar situation, unlike Republicans.

 

[Koomaster]

Let the man have his 'W' on this so we can all enjoy it.

Seriously, how did he end up getting swindled so badly? Even planned parenthood got funded, like what?! Did someone stick that in at the last second and nobody noticed?

I'm positively giddy about this outcome.

 

[The Faceless Master]

wouldn't it be in Mexico's budget?

 

[BoogieWoogie]

Per senior congressional aide, budget deal keeps 99% of EPA funding

[MIMIC]

Because Mexico's paying for it. Duh!

But seriously: good. I welcome this. Hopefully it'll remain as nonexistent.

 

[Strike]

It's a good thing he's so lazy and incompetent.

Let's just hope the EPA gets to use it.

Trump's agenda like

 

[BudokaiMR2]

Man I always that that 'gonna get tired of winning quote' was referencing his own future wins, not the wins of reasonable people across the country.

I gotta say I'm still not tired of it though!

If they aren't going to research climate change, what will they spend it on?

Hopefully not fluff studies downplaying the impact of opening new coal plants.

 

[Volimar]

"Get fucked, Puerto Rico." - Republicans

 

[teiresias]

$2.5 billion of that contingent on Trump presenting a strategy to defeat the Islamic State to Congress

Ha! They're just trolling Trump now.

If they really wanted to troll it should have been contingent on having a strategy to defeat ISIS in 30 days.

 

[Blackage]

All this winning, I can't handle it

Now if we can win some elections that'd be great.

Nice...though is that top/first comment accurate? : "But this is just for rest of '17. The 31% cut was proposed for FY '18." :/

 

[teiresias]

Thank you Establishment Democrats . . . the ones who know how to work in DC.

 

[VendettaRed07]

This a Democrat win? Looks like it but I'm still shell shocked

It's as good as democrats could possibly hope for considering Republicans hold more power from top to bottom than they ever have before.

[Dubbedinenglish]

What about Arts funding? And PBS, NPR etc..

You think Republicans will want a shutdown before mid-terms? Shiieettt they'll fold even harder.

 

[Nepenthe]

I can't tell if I'm mostly happy that all of Trump's biggest promises keep getting setback or if I'm mostly annoyed at how utterly incompetent this administration is.

You have ALL the branches. Fuck are y'all doing?

This election was basically a big fat waste of time.

 

[Metalingus5150]

Waiting for the catch

 

[mreddie]

Waiting for the catch

Again, he will get a W and it'll hurt.

 

[RinsFury]

Taker another loss, you stupid orange cheetodust fuck!

 

[theWB27]

I thought republicans had all the power though.
