Anyone care to guess how I’ll be voting in a few minutes?

The House is about to vote on an omnibus spending bill. In overly simple terms, “omnibus” is when they throw a wide variety of spending into a single piece of legislation.

This particular bill will cost us $1.5 trillion. The legislation itself is 2,700 pages long. The text was released just before 2 AM this morning, and Democrat leadership is calling for a vote around 2 PM this afternoon – get this: right before Democrats want to leave for Philadelphia for a big retreat starting tonight. Most importantly, it appears to increase federal spending without any meaningful offsets, at a time when inflation is at a 40-year high.

I’ll be a hard NO vote… just in case there was any doubt. This is no way to run the government.
