"The bill now heads to President Joe Biden’s desk, where he must decide whether to sign it into law or issue a veto. While Biden has previously pledged to veto anti-trans legislation, rejecting the NDAA would risk jeopardizing military funding for 2025, a move with uncertain and potentially far-reaching consequences."
I personally consider biden justa politician like the others and 99% sure he won't veto cuz that would 'mess up the system' too much... But I would instantly change my view of him and be the biggest biden fangirl complete with UwU Biden Plushies if he veto'd and simultaneously pwned both the antitrans attempt AND military spending with single veto.
Joe Biden is morally obligated to veto this bill.
Except that this wouldn't pwn military spending at all, it just puts it into Trump's hands instead
ewww. so what's the outcome where we win then?
Uhh... Time travel? We already lost tbh. We just gotta get some wins in the future where we can
That's the fun part...
The one where people show up and vote for down-ballot progressive candidates years ago, and against Republicans in November, instead of shoving their heads up their asses. Looks like we might be a little late for that.
