#mubb going woke, or are MARQ editors just stupid blokes?

This. No other country plays their national anthem during domestic matches. It’s just weird.

All this because an M was inserted into #mubb. Go figure.

Yup.  Some people get triggered so easy.  Even by a hashtag

Facts don't matter to people that have created an alternative universe for themselves where whatever they want to be true suddenly is true to them.

Yes indeed. Forgot that all the facts in the article can be cross checked, budgets can be looked up and verified, statements can be weighed objectively. Nope! It must not be true because fact-checkers are all biased and they don't agree with what you want to be true.

Quite a bubble where any fact can be dismissed because it doesn't align with your alternative universe.

The true American Exceptionalism...

Meanwhile, driving on the streets of MKE is like being a foot soldier in a mine field in Nam, hey?

Exactly, nowhere in the bill does it state that veteran's benefits will be cut. But others want to believe that

Snopes?  Cmon, at least try.  You're better than this.

And where exactly does it say they will be kept whole?

I'll note you don't actually dispute anything written there.

Well, now you're just being dishonest. This already has been explained to you.

It doesn't say that defense spending wont be cut, but the Dems are taking their word for that. Not sure why they are not taking their word for the VA issue. Maybe because President Biden jumped the gun and thought he had a "Gotcha!" moment. The Republicans are on record stating no VA cuts. If for some reason there is, they will be called out, especially during the next election.

Nowhere in the bill does it state cuts across the board. During appropriations is where it will be decided where the cuts comefrom.

Only in the world of liberal media Washington politics is a lesser increase in spending called a cut

It literally calls for spending to be rolled back to 2022 levels.
