A simple question: What do we get for $1.7 trillion? ...Middle East

The 117th Congress adjourned after passing a $1.7 trillion omnibus spending package. The logic of doing this is pretty simple: Members get to bring home millions of dollars in grants and projects as a reward for their constituents’ votes. Such politics is downright Machiavellian. It took the rising Republican majority in the House of Representatives out of the equation. The 18 Senate Republicans who voted for the package believe they have reinforced their “independent” and “reasonable” bona fides with the public. In October 2023, when this resolution expires and House Republicans likely will oppose more spending, they will be branded by some in the news media as anti-government radical
