The Republican base that supported Trump are being betrayed on a scale unimaginable but so very predictable. It is perfectly clear now, the cheap labor, open borders oligarchy in the Republican Party are backstabbing President Trump and never intended to allow any of his agenda supported by the Republican Base and his voters to go forward. They want to give the majority back to the Democratic Party and all in the name of their cheap labor, open borders benefactors, the oligarchy and K-Street.
Now the same Republicans have given 1.1 TRILLION dollars to the Democratic agenda, but NOTHING for us, no wall, and they PURPOSELY did so, they will do ANYTHING and EVERYTHING to cut Trump and our hopes and dreams off at the knees and are PURPOSELY not delivering on anything, NO TAX CUTS, no Repeal and Replace, NO WALL, NO JACK for US!
There is now question about it now. Then we have Paul Ryan on Twitter telling us he just gave us border security by giving the Democratic Agenda $1.1 Trillion dollars and giving us basically squat?
And here is what else is happening right now.
Go on Twitter and try and a be critical to Ryan's tweet about giving us "security" as Ryan and the others back stab Trump and do everything to see that the Democrats regain the majority! Just see what happens, go try it right now on Ryan's tweet!
The voice of the Trump supporters are being BANNED. I, myself, just had my account locked for criticizing Ryan's totally misleading tweet. Other tweets are disappearing. It is clear, the left wing admins on Twitter and the backstabbing Republicans who want to take down Trump are now working together.
Do you understand what this is coming to? My God! We are being BETRAYED and levels never before seen. And Trump is being back stabbed at every level, every moment, and his biggest enemy is within the Republican Party itself.
“We went to DC in 2009 and were largely ignored by the powers that be.”
We have to go in numbers that cannot be ignored. Numbers that cannot be controlled. Numbers that can choke every street in DC.
And we have to do it without organization. We have to just get up and go. A peaceful assembly and petition for redress of grievances.
Trump can only sign executive orders.
We need to hold Congress and the Senates feet to the fire
I saved the PDF as a text file.
I opened the text file under edit.
Then I did a find & mark on “2018” in the file.
I turned “show line numbers” on, then counted the number of lines bookmarked.
Here’s the first 10.
1 until September 30, 2018, shall be available for policy
2 Initiative shall remain available until September 30, 2018:
3 2018: Provided, That appropriations hereunder shall be
4 until September 30, 2018; and in addition such sums as
5 30, 2018, of which such sums as are made available
6 30, 2018: Provided, That notwithstanding section
7 available through December 31, 2018, shall be placed in
8 available through September 30, 2018: Provided further,
9 through September 30, 2018: Provided further, That none
10 to remain available through September 30, 2018: Provided,
Not sure why 2018.
I’m looking for a caveat.
I haven’t found it yet.
I can’t tell by the dollar amount whether the funding is only for 5 months or thru 09/30/2018.
I’m so glad we got rid of Boehner...
My hopes for Trump were that he would be the Pinochet that we require if we are to get the Republic back. Constitutional procedures cannot get it back because they require Congress to co-operate which cannot happen. Congressmen do not represent their voters. Their major income and future prospects come from the companies who lobby them and the billionaires. They will not buck them. The best we can get from Donald Trump if he continues to “work with Congress” is a regulatory and maybe a tax reduction that gives us a few years of prosperity. Then that will all be chipped away just as Reagan’s tax and regulatory reform was chipped away by those who came after him. This time I fear the erosion will be faster and will be terminal. Congress is not going to make the mistake it made with Reagan which was to pass major constructive legislation. The globalists will not allow that again.
We're each responsible for our own inspiration...
Still have bitch McConnel
Obama had the Tarp bill on his desk on day one.
Trump has passed Zero legislation because Congress and the Senate have undermined him.
We got Gorsuch on the Supreme court and maybe that’s the long game
agree 10,000%
Good post.
And so many TRUSTING souls assume this is ONLY through this September.
Time to get busy with an Article V convention. It may be the only way to turn this ship around.
We have obstructionists aboard.
And I aint so sure of the captain, but we own the Ship
Buncha these dipsticks need to be handed the black spot
Yup.
JMHO, These dipsticks have no trouble selling us down the river.
You work for us! Its our dang ship!
I used to be against the idea of term limits, but not anymore.
Maybe we should all become Democrats. It may be easier to change the Democrats from the inside than the Republican Party form the outside.
Maybe Romanian Term limits.
You seem to have set up something that you can search pretty regularly. I was going through the 1,600-page document looking to see if the restrictions on spending ANY funds on building a border wall extended beyond September 2017. But, given my limited time available, couldn’t find that. If you get a chance can you check to see if that PROHIBITION in the legislation is “open ended”?
I think that there are a lot of booby traps and snares for President Trump in this bill. For example, on the bottom of page 603 (Section 208a), I saw this:
SEC. 208. (a) Beginning on the date of enactment of this Act, the Secretary of Homeland Security shall not—
(1) establish, collect, or otherwise impose any new border crossing fee on individuals crossing the Southern border or the Northern border at a land port of entry; or
(2) conduct any study relating to the imposition of a border crossing fee.
(b) In this section, the term ‘‘border crossing fee’’ means a fee that every pedestrian, cyclist, and driver and passenger of a private motor vehicle is required to pay for the privilege of crossing the Southern border or the Northern border at a land port of entry.
This section has a beginning date (Date of Enactment) but no ending date so it goes on past September 30th. This is not needed in a continuing resolution but, as best as I can tell, means Congress is TAKING AWAY ONE OF PRESIDENT TRUMP’S CHIPS THAT HE COULD PLAY IF MEXICO DOES SOMETHING SIMILAR. If he signs this bill into law, Trump will be forbidden to take a similar measure if Mexico sets up a border crossing fee for Americans entering Mexico. MY INTERPRETATION IS THAT OUR FRIGGIN’ CONGRESS IS RUNNING INTERFERENCE FOR MEXICO. Bastards!!
Here’s the link for the details that I searched in this MONSTROSITY.
Why do we employ them? they vote their interests not ours.
That horse has left the barn.
They vote themselves pay raises, the vote to opt out of what they shackle us with.
Give them the black spot, all off them and let the chips fall.
