The only person left who can stop the 1,603-page, $1.1 trillion Speaker John Boehner omnibus spending bill from getting to the floor for a vote is House Rules Committee chairman Rep. Pete Sessions (R-TX). If Sessions doesn't kill the bill in the Rules Committee on Wednesday, the bill just may pass the House of Representatives. For Sessions to do that, however, hed need to very publicly and aggressively cross Boehner and House Appropriations Committee chairman Rep. Hal Rogers (R-KY)something that would be largely unorthodox and very difficult to do, politically. Dont expect Sessions to kill it, though: Hes a Boehner ally for a reason, and hes likely to move the legislative sludge through the procedural sewer no questions asked. Because his committee has enormous procedural and structural power over House floor debate structure, Sessions can blow the whole process up and keep the bill from reaching the floor of the House of Representatives or doom its prospects there during his committees expected markup of the bill on Wednesdayif he wanted to. That means every bit of the entire bill is on his shoulders at this point. I do expect the committee will meet tomorrow on the omnibus, Sessions said late Tuesday, according to a tweet from C-SPANs Craig Caplan.

REPUBLICAN BETRAYAL:
OBAMACARE FULLY FUNDED
AMNESTY TOO!
DRUDGE
A little reality, here...John Boehner, D-OHIO...Mitch McConnell, D-Kentucky.
Hal Rogers (R-KY) is the one that is controlled by General Dynamics who has the contract in KY to manufacture the green card like IDs for up to 34,000,000 illegals.
Just what I said would happen.
OH MY GOSH . . . you stupid stupid stupid GOP Leaders.
You should be FIRED immediately. Get Ted Cruz for Senate and Mo Brooks from the House. Anybody but the two we have now.
For years now, I have been asking why Conservatives refuse to jump off the GOP merry-go-round, and have been told what an idiot I was to “help elect Democrats”.
I’m sick of GOP voters, battered wives all!
horrible.
Unreal! Did they just realized they completely lied to their voter base and stabbed them in the backs?! It’s articles like this that need to be spread throughout the party to show that Boehner and McConnell are in cahoots with Obama.
Get them out. Fire them. Impeach. Anything.
It seems that no one dare challenge the NWO cabal who controls our gov’t. Does the Bilderberg group control our gov’t or is it some entity foreign to Earth? Is our Congress under threat of blackmail? Are their lives threatened and their families too? Whatever it is, it seems to apply to every single member of Congress. Scary times, folks. Even the seemingly most ‘patriotic’ Congresscritter such as Jeff Sessions will go along with the agenda set by the evil forces. What gives?
1.1 Trillion Omnibus GOP Bill Also Includes Giant Political Earmark For Establishment GOP
In short, the GOP Establishment put in a TENFOLD increase in the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) can collect from individual donors from $32,400 per year to $324,000
The provision will help Senator Mitch McConnell do more to "punch" conservatives "in the nose" and to "crush" conservatives everywhere.
Remember how the NRSC worked closely with Senator Thad Cochran's race-baiting campaign in Mississippi this year, which attacked conservatives and recruited Democrats to hijack the primary election?
If the omnibus becomes law, conservatives can expect even more of these treacherous tactics from the NRSC, on top of fully funding ObamaCare and Amnesty.
We warned the Party Hacks that voting for RINO Liberal Republicans would result in this very thing. They insulted us and told us we had to 'win' first before the GOP would begin to oppose Obama. That was a giant LIE.
The GOP really can’t do anything until January, right?
Of course. Absolutely nothing.
$1.1T? I’m confused.
2014 federal revenue was about $3.0T.
2014 federal spending was about $3.9T.
And http://www.usgovernmentdebt.us/federal_deficit shows 2014 deficit was about $0.5T.
None of these numbers are adding up. 2015 budget of $1.1T on revenue of $3.0T and deficit spending of $0.6T? Huh? And same link shows Obama’s administration cutting the annual deficit by nearly a trillion dollars after 5 years, but driving the debt up 60 or 80% in the same time?
1603 page bill print-to-vote time of 1 day flat, and it’s not even clear what the scope of the spending is?
My letter to Martha Roby, R-Alabama, 2nd Congressional District:
Quote from the DailyCaller.com website: “The GOPs draft 2015 omnibus spending bill reportedly includes $948 million to help poor and unskilled Central American migrants establish themselves in the United States, but includes no effective restrictions on President Barack Obamas plan to provide work permits and tax payments to millions of resident illegal immigrants.”
NO. Vote NO. This matters VERY much to me. I remind you that probably the VAST majority of your constituents are against this in every possible way. We voted Republican last November because YOU and your PARTY promised to fight this and turn back the President’s executive order.
A “Yes” vote on the bill as it is means you lied to us. To me it is that simple.
Vote NO to the Omnibus spending bill.
Sincerely,
Alas Babylon!
I just called and left a literally SCREAMING comnent on Bone heads comment line!!! I’m DONE... PERIOD... Going to fund TEA PARTY only now...
This was an e mail.
The last time, I called. I talked to a guy (staffer, I guess) who was about as animated as a tree slug. It was like talking to the back wall of a handball court.
Maybe they're trained to respond like that.
Anyway-THIS time I sent an e mail message JUST in case the
‘staffer’ didn't get it all down the last time.
Not true. Right now, everyone wants the GOP House to pass the CR. That same GOP House can choose not to pass the CR.
No senate required.
