Outrage mounts for some, but not for all. Just check comments sections on conservative outlets. People are cheering this slush fund as a win.

The GOP has spent the better part of 100 years convincing its base to vote against and put support against their own interests. That drive is now literally paying dividends.

You would be shocked, shocked, by how few people care about this, and how many assume that it's normal government operations.

Nah these idiots quit surprising me the first time they elected president Pedophile Trump, I'm older, gen x, just smarter than my peers, maybe not better educated, but smarter. These kool aid, drinkin bootlickers have their heads in the ground to lick boots easier. I have had enough of these fools login off with my anger

This. I have not been anti GOP my whole life but they have just went beyond the pale this millenia and they keep getting worse. they just have to go. its unacceptable for them to hold any office at this point and I hope conservatives can see this and get away from corpo bullshit and stuff and reshingle like when the wigs went away. They need to get back to something with real core beliefs that it stands by. I know a lot of the left will basically yell that none of their things are good and I get that. Its not what I think is right but at this point they just don't even have anything but if its us its good if its thems its bad even if its the same thing.
