House Republicans moved to reduce Transportation Secretary Pete Buttigieg’s salary to $1, as lawmakers debate spending bills ahead of the government funding deadline next week.
The salary cut for Buttigieg was put forth by Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-Ga.) and adopted by voice vote as an amendment to the 2024 Transpiration and Housing and Urban Development spending bill.
“Pete Buttigieg doesn’t do his job. It’s all about fake photo ops and taxpayer-funded private jet trip to accept LGBTQ awards for him,” Green posted on X, the platform formerly known as Twitter. “I’m happy my amendment passed, but he doesn’t deserve a single penny.”
The underlying bill needs to be approved by the full House and is unlikely to be approved by the Senate.
How do I tell the difference between a world with no God, and a world that has a God that uses its unbounded knowledge and power to hide its presence from us?
You don’t. That’s on purpose, to test your blind unwavering faith, and you won’t know your score until after you’re dead. Just follow without question whatever your spiritual leader says in order to maximize your chances… ain’t that convenient?
Just like all the Atheists do. Convenient? Not really. Seems harder to believe anything unprovable than to believe things you can poke with a stick.
The more important question is, “Does it matter if there is or is not a God?”
