Once again we in the Republican Party have been screwed over by yet another ‘Gang of 18’ RINOs in the U.S. Senate. These RINOs had no qualms whatsoever when it came to again shoving a knife into our back by choosing to side with the Democrats, this time to pass the 4,155-page, $1.7 trillion, fiscally irresponsible, omnibus spending bill and to send it on to the House, where Democrats are salivating over their chance to get it Joey’s desk before Christmas. This legislative monstrosity passed the Senate by a 68-29 margin on Thursday afternoon with the help of our infamous ‘Gang of 18.’ Once again the RINOs have shown they are more dangerous than are the Democrats.
And it’s a casual glance over the list of these turncoats
that one quickly recognizes names that we’re all very familiar with. The list
contains those ‘usual suspects’ who have a long history of screwing over both us
and the country. The names on that list: Roy Blunt, John Boozman, Shelley Moore
Capito, Susan Collins, John Cornyn, Tom Cotton, Lindsey Graham, Jim Inhofe, Mitch
McConnell, Jerry Moran, Lisa Murkowski, Rob Portman, Mitt Romney, Mike Rounds, Richard
Shelby, John Thune, Roger Wicker and Todd Young. All RINOs, all the time. And
might this type of behavior be what prompted many Americans to not vote for
more Republicans in the midterm elections?
We’re told that this massive $1.7 trillion debacle of
a spending bill will fund the government through September 2023 and is likely
to be the last piece of legislation this Congress will vote on, as members will
most likely not come back this year after they leave for the Christmas holiday.
In January, when Congress comes back in session, Republicans will take control
of the House, which, while it should make it harder for Democrats to pass
significant legislation, as we see by the actions of this ‘Gang of 18’, is
certainly no guarantee. Personally, I don’t have much confidence in our Republican
members in the House to act as much of a roadblock to the insanity.
Anyway, this fiscal abomination passed by the Senate
is absolutely riddled with thousands of earmarks, which lawmakers add to bills
to advance their own narrow political priorities. And it’s the Congressional
Research Service that defines earmarks as spending provisions that are included
in bills to benefit “a specific entity or state, locality, or congressional
district other than through a statutory or administrative formula or
competitive award process.” Ultimately, they allow lawmakers to clandestinely add
all manner of “pork” to bills that fund projects in their districts, but could
also be used to reward their donors and various special interests.
And it’s this very same piece of legislation that ‘gives’
another $45 Billion in military and economic aid to Ukraine, which, added to
the $66 Billion that lawmakers have already approved for that purpose, brings
the grand total of what American taxpayers’ dollars have provided to the
country to over $110 billion. American taxpayers have ‘given’ more aid to
Ukraine in 2022 than was sent to Afghanistan, Israel, and Egypt combined in
2020. I’ve always been strangely impressed by the ability of Schumer and Pelosi
to always guarantee 100 percent support for any bill they put forward.
Meanwhile, that never seems to happen on our side.
Perhaps the biggest disappointment among those who
thought it a good idea to side with the Democrats was Tom Cotton? Turns out he’s
nothing more than another lying fraud! I have to admit, he put up a good front about
being a conservative, but when push came to shove, he went along with the Democrats
and McConnell. So from this point on I don’t want to be hearing any more about
the time he spent as an honor guard at Arlington. As far as I’m concerned, he
has no honor. And it would seem that he left is backbone on the floor a long
time ago. If Cotton thought he was running for President, he should probably
give that a little more thought. He’s dead to me!
Sadly, it’s the recapture of the House by the
Republicans that will likely have the same result. All we have are turncoats
and back stabbers and it’s none of these bastards that care about America. They
only care about themselves. And with that many Democrats masquerading as
Republicans, I just don’t see how there will never be a workable Republican
majority. And I have no doubt that that is just fine with both McConnell in the
Senate and McCarthy in the House. Traitors to the Republic the lot of ‘em. The
very fact that they would vote to continue to fund the FBI given recent
revelations regarding that agencies illegal activities is the tell. Bad guys.
Every one of these people, as well as more than a
few not on this particular list, are shameless saboteurs. Lindsey Graham is among
the worst, always pretending to be a conservative, and the rest at least we
know they’re RINOs. Democrats are not hiding their intentions to destroy this
country and they’re getting plenty of help from these gutless RINOs in return
for a share of the profits. I also blame the useful idiots who continually return
these RINOs to office. Are these constituents really that dumb? This is a
horrible bill and conservatives, and well thinking and meaningful lawmakers, in
the House ought to reject the passage of this monstrosity of a bill.
Once again, we have those who are supposed to be
working for us, ignoring why it was that they were elected and simply ramming
through whatever it is that they want, without care or concern of how it will
affect Americans. My cost of living has nearly doubled since Joey took office and
that seems to bother none of these people in the least. And yet we are simply supposed
to just sit here and be quiet while these idiots run our country to the ground.
We can no longer afford to sit idly by while these politicians continue with this reckless
spending of money that we simply don’t have. Do these people really think we’re
too stupid to see what’s going on here?
Our system worked well for
two hundred years, but it doesn’t anymore. The politicians are wealthy beyond
belief, far removed from the concerns of ordinary Americans. President Trump
tried to break it up, but one man can only do so much. A new political movement,
and Americans committed to it, is what is now needed. These politicians must be
held accountable, and they cannot continually be re-elected so that they can simply
return to business as usual. Voting for the same people and expecting them to somehow
behave differently than they have their entire political ‘career,’ is nothing
more than the definition of insanity.
