Congress wasting time debating Big Beautiful Bill footnotes, White House not expecting actual progress.

In a shocking turn of events, the White House has announced that Congress is currently debating ‘footnotes’ on the ‘Big Beautiful Bill,’ but they are not expecting any major changes to be made. This news has left many scratching their heads and wondering what exactly is going on in the hallowed halls of Washington.

According to White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders, the footnotes being debated are crucial to the success of the bill. “Without these footnotes, the Big Beautiful Bill just wouldn’t be as big or beautiful as we want it to be,” Sanders stated. When pressed for more information on what exactly these footnotes entail, Sanders replied, “I can’t go into specifics, but let’s just say they involve a lot of fancy legal jargon and some very important asterisks.”

Congressman Joe Smith, a member of the House Ways and Means Committee, had this to say about the footnotes: “I’ve never seen footnotes like these before in my life. They’re so tiny, you practically need a magnifying glass to read them. But rest assured, we are taking this matter very seriously and will not rest until every last footnote is properly debated and approved.”

In response to the news, Senator Bob Johnson quipped, “I can’t believe we’re wasting time debating footnotes when we could be focusing on more pressing issues, like how to make the Big Beautiful Bill even bigger and more beautiful. But hey, that’s just Congress for you.”

Despite the seemingly absurd nature of the situation, the White House remains confident that the Big Beautiful Bill will pass with flying colors. “We have full faith in Congress to do the right thing and approve the footnotes,” Sanders stated. “After all, what’s a little fine print between friends?”

As the debate rages on in Congress, one thing is for certain: the Big Beautiful Bill is sure to be a hot topic for weeks to come. And who knows, maybe those footnotes will turn out to be the key to its success. Only time will tell in this wild world of politics and paperwork.
