Cut the shit, you know damned well that 'went to' and spent in this context mean the same.

Compare the 'spent' numbers below with Trump's 'infrastructure weeks' 0 point shit spending.

In summary, nearly half of the $1.2 trillion infrastructure funding authorized by the IIJA has been allocated and spent as of late 2024/early 2025, with continued momentum expected through the law’s five-year funding period.

'Spent' infrastructure monies to date?

As of mid-2025, approximately $568 billion has been allocated or "spent" on infrastructure projects under the Infrastructure Investment and Jobs Act (IIJA), covering around 68,000 projects nationwide. This corresponds to about 47% of the total $1.2 trillion authorized by the law. The funding supports a broad range of infrastructure including roads, bridges, transit, broadband, water systems, rail, airports, and resilience projects.

By May 2024, about $454 billion (38% of the Act’s funds) had been announced for projects, with this rising to $568 billion by November 2024 as implementation accelerated. The law provided roughly $350 billion specifically for federal highway programs over five years. Agencies continue to award additional funds, with competitive grant awards reaching over $40 billion by late 2023, and formula/direct spending steadily progressing, indicating ongoing disbursement of monies.

The investments have funded more than 175,000 miles of roadway repairs, over 10,000 bridge projects, 11,000 public transit projects, 12,000 miles of broadband infrastructure, and thousands of water and airport modernization efforts. Inflation and supply chain issues have somewhat reduced the purchasing power of these funds but the program remains a significant federal push to modernize U.S. infrastructure.

For the most detailed ongoing tracking of exact spending and project awards at the local level, the federal government offers data portals such as USAspending.gov and the White House’s Map of Progress related to the IIJA.

In summary, nearly half of the $1.2 trillion infrastructure funding authorized by the IIJA has been allocated and spent as of late 2024/early 2025, with continued momentum expected through the law’s five-year funding period.

B402, Appeal fails. And while DK is rated fairly far left and of mixed veracity (as are close to a majority, i'd guess, of the sites that rater rates) it does not troll for trolling's sake, and it does provide much more substantiation for it's words than you do. And slurs, for sure, almost every post you do. You came to this board a fraud in your claim to independence, and you have since clearly established yourself as a staunch defender of Trump policy. Your appeal was not worthy of presentation.
