Congress gives itself a raise in new spending bill

[mojo]

Unbelievable....They only work about half a year and get a years pay and now a raise! It's not fair and their record of working on current issues proves they don't deserve it ... It's not one party either it's the division and inability to come together for the good of the Country and they can't see past politicization of anything...sad

Can't say this is the least bit surprising. The vast majority of Congress are simply lobbyist puppets that only care about themselves.

Trump greenlighted this, by the way.

"Trump slammed the rushed process to pass the more than 2,200-page bill released only Wednesday. Standing near the pile of documents, the president said he was "disappointed" in the legislation and would 'never sign another bill like this again.'" -- CNBC
