Most people probably aren’t tracking this but Senate Republicans just started an all-night voting marathon that will allow them to gut Medicaid and increase child hunger while giving handouts to billionaires like Elon Musk.

So we spent a ton of money to move 170+ Venezuelans from inside the United States to #GTMO, where we spent a ton of money to hold them for less than a month, before we spent a ton of money to bring one of them back stateside and repatriate the rest. Talk about wasteful government spending…
