Yeah, political grandstanding shouldn't have been the GOP's priority, but it is what it is.

2 things: the Keystone Pipeline will kill more jobs in the long term than it will create in the short term, so **** that thing and anyone who wants it.
Second thing: all of those private schools got enough of a break the last 4 years under DeVos, so they can pull themselves out of the gutter with all the extra money they've pocketed or they can drown in their own mistakes. You know, capitalism and all of that.

I stopped reading about the first one. The Scott amendment would prevent any Covid funding going to any state that has some sort of investigation pending regarding nursing homes. That's dumb as shit. That's not common sense and it was rightfully shot down. The clear purpose of it is to prevent any relief from going to New York state.

Some of those were good, some were just dumb and some were just grand standing.
And some were probably super uninformed, like rubio's. I can't speak to what's going on in every state, but here schools are still supplying teachers, meals, tutoring, etc. No, in some places all the kids aren't there, but it's not like districts aren't still spending close to the same amount. Yeah, they're saving on some things like transportation, but that's a drop in the bucket.
