The MAGA House Caves on the Budget
Governor Katie Hobbs stood strong throughout the MAGA meltdown, and, with a shutdown looming, Arizona’s House of Representatives caved leaving Hobbs to sign the Bipartisan Budget Bill she hammered out with the Senate a hundred wing nut tantrums ago. Good grief.
Below is exclusive video of the Arizona House of Representatives as they gathered earlier to debate the bill:
In a related story anthropologists found evidence in Arizona that early Paleolithic man worked with tools. A stapler was found in speaker Montenegro's office.
In press releases House Speaker Montenegro is described as a principled conservative leader who “will prioritize fiscal responsibility, safer communities, and stronger families as Speaker.” In the words of Noah, what a load of stinking horse manure flung straight out of the ark. Why is it these double talking artists are the ones who always end up creating bloody budgets that “will prioritize fiscal irresponsibility, unsafe communities, and struggling families” only in hopes of getting reelected by their MAGA-droid base?
House Speaker Steve Montenegro chose to serve Trump, play politics and spread lies rather than spend the session focused on the truly challenging craft of good governance.
What a thought.
I myself have chosen to be equally unproductive by listing possible new names for Arizona’s House of Representatives ( so old-fashioned and much too dignified) now that their daycare has closed for the summer:

Thank you Governor Hobbs.
A budget as good as could have been gotten.
The governor should take a stronger stand on school vouchers, on several dimensions. That is a winnable issue, but she caved in her first year.
My fav: freedom CaCa caucus. 💩💩💩💩💩💩.
