Why Did Senate Republicans Just Vote for Inflation?
Well, the massive omnibus spending bill has passed the U.S. Senate, with Republicans rolling over to give it a 68 to 29 margin of victory. So if you thought Republicans were going to stand up against this huge overreach, it wasn’t even remotely the case. Lots of them voted in favor of this Democrat wishlist.

This disaster includes a ban on border spending and a raise for the corrupt FBI and DOJ, among other ridiculous giveaways for leftist pet projects.
My team and I are reading through the omnibus bill today – all $1.7 trillion and 4,155 pages of it.

Congress is allocating more than $700 million towards red flag laws in this omnibus bill.
No one who votes for this monstrosity can ever say they care about the Second Amendment again.

Then why are some Senate Republicans planning to vote for it?

👀 🚨: “Any Republican that went down to the border and did the dog-and-pony show and comes back to Congress and signs [the omnibus]…shouldn’t be representing us in Congress.”
