This means the timestamp is important…
>$350 Mil to "Migration and Refugee Assistance." - The fuck?
They need assistance going back home
>$45 Billion to the Disaster Relief Fund
A lot of the money tapped for emergency healthcare will come from this.
>$8.1 Million dollars to the National Archives and Records Administration ?????
Guessing the executive branch is generating a lot of documents that are required to be preserved?
>$453 Million to Bureau of Indian Affairs
Are they responsible for their own response to the pandemic?
> $30.75 Billion to the Dept of Education…. schools are closed?
Haven't figure this one out yet…
Student loan interest forgiveness maybe?
>$13 Million for Howard University
Who?
>The Senate gets $9 Mil in "Miscellaneous Expenses", the House gets an additional $25 Mil in salaries for some unknown fucking reason.
> My assumption here (could be wrong) is that this for aides, not the congress critters themselves. I'm pretty sure there's a ton of expenses they're incurring that are above the norm. $25m / 435 representatives is $57,500 per member; not a lot if you have a dozen or more aides (remember; it's not just the aides in D.C.; it will include the folks manning their offices back home too…)
Would help if there was more context. Not trying to dis you for pointing these out, but lets not get sidetracked by things that are likely completely reasonable under the circumstances.
I don't think so.
I'm leaning toward a coup attempt. POTUS will be insulated on AF1, protected by the true MIL, and will return on 4/10/20. (Rising from the proverbial dead I guess…)
