Uniparty members of Congress are already congratulating themselves for recklessly spending your money. [last night]
They should be ashamed.
If you can’t keep the government funded without gargantuan deficits and 6,000+ earmarks, you’re doing it wrong.
We need new Senate GOP leadership.
(Excerpt) Read more at twitter.com ...
Can someone provide us with anything supportive of Trump that Mike Lee has said or done. He sure has been blabbing about not much the past few days
The Republican Party is a SHAM. It is full of shit. The GOP must be replaced. A new MAGA party must replace it.
He’s on fire on twitter/X against the Uniparty
The Republican Party is useless. It doesn’t stand for anything or fight for its voters.
But the harsh reality is they only get there and stay there because we don’t hold them accountable for results.
Republicans in the Senate should work towards improved budgeting with counterparts in the House.
Schumer runs the Senate with an iron fist. Republican senators get to gawk.
There are a lot of senators and ‘representatives’ that are not involved daily in current budgeting, so they have time to spare to reform the budgeting for future fiscal years.
What was passed last night?
Calling out the Uniparty is supporting Trump and America.
He is probably setting the stage for a fiscal conservative leader.
At least we need a moratorium on any new spending. If something important comes up...take the money allocated from a useless govt. money sinkhole.
Then, the govt.grifters will manufacture a crisis where they will be the beneficiaries of govt. monetary stupidity.

A spending bill
What did they sneak through last night?
A spending bill +billions more than last time (surprise!)
It passed overwhelmingly
The Senate GOP are just there to get their share.
Democrats can’t think of every way possible to pluck the taxpayers, so the GOP can be helpful.
Funny how it’s never the other way around.,
I think voters are getting tired of the RINOs.
They keep doing it.
This was the Senate passing what the House already passed. It’s the spending bills for 4 areas. Another 6 to come.
Regardless of that, people, we are going to have to come to accept that there is no solution. Spending is over $6T and taxes about $4T for a deficit of $1.8T this Fiscal Year.
There is no fix for this. This is not residual Covid funding and there is no swaggering growth in GDP that is going to raise tax revenue.
GDP is an equation and part of that equation is the parameter G, which stands for government spending. GDP is about $25T. With govt spending at $6T, it’s a substantial portion of the total. Cut it and you cut GDP.
That’s just math. Math ALWAYS takes precedent over ideology.
There is no solution. Buy farmland. Not stocks.
And to be certain, Senator John “Wayne” McCornyn need not apply.
Mumbai Mike has spoken
Nobody wants to cut the federal budget because of the economic pain it would cause.
In the past, when cuts have been implemented, the shrieking from “injured parties” & their lobbyists has been ear shattering.
I’m beginning to think tax rates should be adjusted to cut down the deficits.
The percentage corporate tax rate for a tax year might be:
(the national debt as of the end of the last fiscal year-$10 trillion)/$1 trillion
If the national debt is $36.5 trillion, the corporate tax rate might be 26%.
If the debt increased by 10% for a fiscal year, the tax brackets would get lowered for deficit control purposes by 10%. If inflation was 4%, after inflation adjustment, the brackets would get lowered by 6%.
