Arrr mateys! Gather 'round, ye scallywags! The House o' Representatives done hoisted their sails and voted a grand total of 366 to 34, givin' the thumbs-up to a short-term spendin' bill to keep the mighty ship o' government sailin' smooth until the 14th o' March. Aye, time be tickin', leavin' the Senate with but mere hours to act afore the clock strikes midnight, or we be facin' a fierce government shutdown, like a ship run aground!

But hold fast, for there be more treasure in this here proposal! The swabs in the GOP be throwin' in a handsome $100 billion in aid for our fellow seafarin' folk strugglin' to recover from the wrath of Mother Nature. Aye, 'tis a bounty for those reelin' from wildfires in the fair land of Maui, and the watery mayhem post-hurricane in the Carolinas. 'Tis a noble cause, indeed, to help our mates rebuild their homes and lives, lest they be left adrift like a ship without a captain!
