Oh my word! 

A major piece of legislation is multi-faceted?? 
You don't say?? 
I've never seen that?

Gimme a [BLEEP] break, man. The bill had the border funding that had been negotiated by the few Republicans willing to reach across the aisle during its infancy.  It got shot down by Republicans after Drumpf urged them to shoot it down so the Dems weren't perceived as making progress at the border. They had the votes committed until the MAGA contingent pressured other GOPers to alter their course. 
You KNOW that statement is 100% true. This was widely publicized. 

Of course there was a ton of other [BLEEP] in the bill. Like there always is - no matter who crafted it! 
 Of course funding Ukraine is the best available excuse since the public on the right has been duped into favoring communist Russia to sovereign states now. 

You have to be kidding me.

What did you say here? 20% of your post is relevant and the rest is wasteful trash. Maybe this is why you like our government so much.


I'll address your logical fallacy:

Widely publicized is not the same as truth.

Hemming and hawing away here I see.

The bill had ENOUGH verbal commitments from the right to pass before the MAGA morons began their little campaign to alter that. 

That's what I saw reported over and over and over at the time of the vote from an array of different sources. 

You want to try grandstanding here by insulting me and listing a few GOP voters who didn't need swaying, great! Have fun. 

Your other tactic seems to be pointing out the other spending in the bill, which I've already pointed out is no different than every other spending bill of any note that these idiots vote on. But keep pointing out the obvious if it makes you feel better.
