WASHNGTON – President Biden signed bipartisan legislation to prevent a government shutdown; to provide $100 billion help localities recover from disasters, including wildfires in Maui and hurricane flooding in North Carolina; and $10 billion to aid farmers. President-elect Trump had fought the bill unless it were amened to raise the national debt to finance tax breaks for giant corporations and the moneyed class. The Sente and House overwhelmingly rejected the Trump plan, even though he threatened to kill the political careers of anyone who didn’t go along.
