the whole budget thing is dumb, just write it so that things auto-renew at the same level as before if Congress doesn't update them
They won't do that because they need to keep raising the budgets for the military, ICE, and aid to
True but this makes me wonder why there isn't already a provisional budget law that raises those things to like one trillion times the current amount until the new budget is passed
But then how will we do political theater with the budget if it is governed by sensible processes??
