Sweet.

Id now like to offer an amendment that eliminates

Section 4, number 9


Quote
9. $3.50 (Three dollars and fifty cents) shall be deposited into a newly-created West Midlander Fund for Sucking Eggs held by the federal government, to be invested in an egg-related stock chosen at random by one (1) fertile, egg-laying hen of the Rhode Island Red species through a method chosen by any board-certified practitioner of sports medicine

... as this section was written to bully our colleague Senator Midlander. At least 1 conspirator in the leaked chat claimed to want to bully WM out of the game.

Mr. R's amendment is adopted.

Introducing an amendment to strike the following two provisions:

Quote
51. $1,000,000,000 shall be allocated for the complete and utter destruction of California using high explosives;

Quote
53. $50,000,000 shall be designated to an immigration campaign to encourage people who are Indian to settle in Mingo County, West Virginia by expelling all residents of Mingo County who said they were white on the 2020 Census;

I think it goes without saying that we should leave our fellow citizens be.

PPT hat back on to give the rest of the Senate 24 hours to object.
