White House says Republicans have turned defense bill into ‘rightwing wishlist’

The White House on Friday slammed congressional Republicans for “hijacking” the annual defense policy bill and loading it up with conservative amendments related to abortion, transgender rights and other issues, arguing it will undermine national security.
How to defend the country? Get rid of everything worth fighting for, give your enemies everything they want before they invade. 4D warfare.
Or maybe investing in public healthcare, education and welfare, reduce the causes of crime and violence, stand stronger together, but that requires caring about someone who's not yourself.
Saying that you'd end a war by giving the aggressor everything they want is some real 10th dimensional Parcheesi.

We need to put a stop to this bloated rider nonsense.
Unrelated riders should be banned. The end. Any bills that are longer than 5 pages should be required to have a factual unbiased tldr eli5 so that anyone can understand what it means... no wordsmithing double speak bullshit like the patriot act. These are bi partisan things in my experience, but neither side actually pushes these effots.. hmm I wonder why
