On the House floor this past Friday, House Minority Whip Steny Hoyer (D.-Md.) said that House Speaker Paul Ryan had told him that members would have 72 hours to read this new spending bill and that a vote would be held Thursday.

To read all 1,665 pages of the bill over three full days, a member of Congress—or a citizen—would need to read 555 pages per day.
Oh, brother - this smells bad!

Just building on this (I can't edit after less than a day?) Trump has built his campaign and presidency on national security. Guess what is explicitly forbidden from being funded in the spending bill? The wall.

If that isn't a slap in the face.
