This is my fucking problem with how the US manufactured bills. I need to get a bridge in Omaha repaired but in so doing I also have to okay children not getting school lunches.

They are called Christmas Tree bills, and basically the new norm of getting bills passed. Most of this has to due to GOP-lead obstruction. Simple yes or no's on single-issue bills will die to GOP opposition (or never see the light of day if the House is controlled by the GOP). But they stand a chance of passing if they can be bundled with pet-project stuff like this.

It's trash, but likely won't go away until GOP actually has very little seats.

Pretty fucking wild to ban an entire social media platform. It's no secret how bad the data mining is, but it's also no different than any other social media company.
