House vote on the impeachment of Sec. Pete Hegseth scheduled for 4:!5pm today!
Idk why people think that members of Congress should be paid lower or think they make too much money. They have to maintain 2 places to live lol. You think a house member from like Hawaii should make what a soldier makes? I agree that troops are paid too little (I am one) but let’s be realistic lol the average troop isn’t doing what Congress members do
**Salary of retired US Presidents:**
