Socialist spending bill passed, thanks to 13 House GOPers and the Democrats

The House of [mis-] Representatives passed a $1.2 trillion bipartisan socialist "infrastructure" bill late on Friday following a compromise between moderate and progressive [i.e., Marxist] Democrats. Thanks to GOPers in the Senate, [the bill passed there 69 to 30] including Mitch McConnell (R-KY), and 13 House Republicans, the bill now only needs Co-President Joe Biden's shaky signature to pass.

The vote tally was 228 to 206 with six Marxist Democrats voting against the spending bill because it didn't call for even greater spending of taxpayer money. The 'nays' included: 

Ayanna Pressley (D-MA), Rashida Tlaib (Hamas-MI), Ilhan Omar (Anti-Semite-MN), Cori Bush (BLM-MO), Jamaal Bowman (D-NY), and of course, Alexandria Overtly-Commie (Duh-NY).

Then there were people who call themselves Republicans who voted in favor of the exorbitant spending bill. These RINOs included:

Don Bacon (NE), Brian Fitzpatrick (PA), Andrew Garbarino (NY), Anthony Gonzalez (OH), John Katko (NY), Adam Kinzinger (IL), Nicole Malliotakis (NY), David McKinley (WVA), Tom Reed (NY), Chris Smith (NJ), Fred Upton (MI), Jeff van Drew (NJ), and Don Young (AK).

Now the bill goes to the President's desk [whoever that really is] and Biden will obviously sign it as he is being directed.

The House also passed a procedural vote soon after midnight to advance consideration of the Build Back Better Act.

Democrats plan to pass the second bill unilaterally through the budget reconciliation process, that doesn't need Republican support, but this may be difficult due to the divisions in the Democratic Party between the progressives and moderates.

For his part, Biden said in a statement that he looked forward to signing both bills if that's what he's supposed to do.

"Tonight, we took a monumental step forward as a nation," the alleged president's statement said, calling the legislation a "once-in-generation bipartisan infrastructure bill that will create millions of jobs, turn the climate crisis into an opportunity, and put us on a path to win the economic competition for the 21st Century."

The 13 Republicans who went along with this nonsense were met with harsh criticism.

For example, Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) of Georgia's 14th congressional district called those GOP members "traitors." She then posted a list of the Republicans who voted along with the Democrats.

"But 6 Democrats did more than these 13 traitor Republicans to stop Biden's fake Infrastructure bill by voting NO," Greene wrote.
