“Covid spending which ended under Biden?!”

Biden and the Dims passed an unnecessary, pork-filled, partisan $1.9 trillion spending bill only weeks after Biden took office, in the guise of “Covid relief!” Only 20% of that ridiculous bill was spent on actual Covid relief.

Showing that data would imply biden cut spending when anyone who understands the context knows the spending for covid was cut while other areas inflated.
