i was watching footage of Congress Critters (D) screeching about how only Congress has the power to spend our treasure, and that trump must follow the budget Congress drafts and votes on.
First, if they want all the credit for all the crap we, the people, are paying for that has absolutely nothing to do with the things we expect to be funded, they are more than welcome to it!
Second, if i were in Congress, I wouldn't be screaming in public that my job is to draft and pass budgets considering we are still without a passed budget in February which was supposed to be executed last October 1st. Then think back to when we ever had a budget passed without it being an Ominbus bill, meaning there was no real effort to fund individual items, just a blank check handed to agencies who then decide how to spend it. Doesn't Congress also have oversight responsibilities to ensure programs are being administered responsibly?
Lastly, our budgeting process is a joke. Congress passes spending bills we don't have the money for, so they borrow the money to fund all those things. Then when we hit the credit ceiling, they fight over whether or not to pay for the things they already spent the money on.
Those are the people who represent us. They pretend to be doing a great job, want to stop Trump from overstepping his authority, and can't pass a budget year after year. No wonder Congress is the only group with lower approval ratings than CNN.
