That wasn’t the reason the original bill failed. The original was 1550 pages long with raises for congress, protection from the horse shit they’ve used against trump, and a whole lot more pork in it.
I'm not getting into the politics of the original bill, I don't think there is any doubt that the original bill had other things they objected to. But I'll simply point out that Musk tweeted his objection to the bill containing money for a new stadium and that was flat out wrong. At Trump and Musk's urging the original bill did not pass and one of the things they objected to was stadium funding which was never in the original bill in the first place. Here's yet another link to support this:


However, those same local elected officials suffered a great deal of whiplash when President-elect Donald Trump and Elon Musk slammed the funding package, and urged Republicans to reject the deal. A vote was scheduled on the House floor Wednesday afternoon for the original agreement, but it was canceled at the 11th hour.

Republicans introduced a new funding bill Thursday afternoon, which cut out the RFK Stadium measure.

He did misinterpret. No argument there.

They got it done despite the Republicans best efforts to fuck it all up. The same Republicans who felt Congress has better things to do than interview the owner of the Washington Commanders and the Commissioner of the National Football League. Those appearances before Congress most definitely kept the pressure on and lead to Snyder ultimately being forced to sell the team.

Winning.

DGF is funny , I won’t get into politics but I will get into politics. The stadium bill had 100% support from both sides . But DGF thinks that the CR should have passed despite all the unnecessary crap in it . Like making congressional data not subject to subpoenas that both parties can use to hide corruption., or giving themselves a 40 % raise .

I don't care what bill, who's paying, or where it is in DC, makes no statement whatsoever or add no congratulations until the name gets changed back to the REDSKINS

Any blll that long should fail on GP alone. 1550 pages. That's fuckin ridiculous.
