War czars of the empire, rejoice!
Congress has decided to allocate $70 billion for military operations. But wait, there’s more: “The House’s 272-142 vote also sent the president a $555 billion catchall spending bill that combines the war money with money for 14 Cabinet departments.”
…and a happy new year!
