'Lump of coal': Republicans pen Christmas-themed attacks to decry funding bill

Congressional Republicans took to social media to slam a short-term funding bill out Tuesday that would prevent a federal government shutdown just as the holidays roll around.

In a tribute to the season, some lawmakers not feeling jolly about the 1,500 pages released got creative with their disapproval of the bill that would keep the government open until mid-March.

“The Christmas CR lump of coal comes with a warning,” Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene told her social media followers of the continuing resolution.
