The bill does not technically provide a raise for members of Congress, who earn an annual salary of $174,000. But House staffers, who members use to run errands, and family members of Congressional lawmakers who are often put on payroll, will see a pay increase.
The loop hole is what we saw earlier this week. When Pelosi requested $10 Billion for Ukraine, McConnell said, I'll see your $10 Billion and raise you to $14 Billion.
I am convinced that the money sent oversees finds it way back to politicians personal LLCs and investments.
THIS is why they can make a "paltry" $174,000 per year and yet when they leave congress they are worth tens of millions of dollars, if not more.
Congress is a GIANT money laundering operation. Ukraine is the heart of this corruption. THIS is why they are all freaking out. Their laundry is in the dryer!
Thinking they only gave themselves a 21% pay raise is laughable. They'll launder that money through foreign countries like Ukraine skimmed billions off for themselves.
What a bunch of BS. Republicans will be sorry they voted for this. Vote them out! This is why we need to get rid of Congress. It is a piggy bank. They don’t show up to vote, bills are not clean-cumbersome, not read, voted on extraneous spending. Budget never is balanced. They never consider what is deemed important by constituents. I am thoroughly disgusted, and that is putting it mildly. Every damn Senator and member of the House needs to go.
Bingo folks here it is, the loophole.

"The Capitol Police department would also receive $602.5 million, $87 million more than it was provided in the 2021 fiscal year." There is the payoff!
I just wish a sinkhole would open up and swallow everyone there
This should expose the lie that is their 8% transitory inflation claim.

Just saw your post after making my comment.
You are 💯% correct!
TBS, I like to say to the creeps making obscene amounts of fiat dollars: "Thank you for increasing your RICO value" 😉
It's past time to go after those insurance bonds on these worthless POS.
assholes
