Government can never spend enough of other people’s money.

And the insane keep believing in the strategy of voting them out in the primaries. The only way to get rid of them is to vote AGAINST them in both the primary and general for whoever stands the best chance of winning.

Maybe next time they’ll put up a true Republican. Either way a RINO must go.

Okay...this covers the 1.2 trillion pkg. What if the Dems do a bait and switch and use it for the reconciliation pkg instead....Manchin said 1.5....this would be perfect.

Because we know the real infrastructure package MUST be passed.

Congress controls the government’s purse strings. They are responsible for the debt.

In 2007, Nancy Pelosi became Speaker of the House.

In 2007, Mitch McConnell became the Republican leader in the senate.

In 2007, the national debt was 9 trillion dollars. Today it’s 28 trillion dollars.

Shocked! Not.The Republicans at the hill hate our guts! They hate us so much that they wanna punish us by enslaving us to diabolical debt for the rest of our lives and our children! Consider that these assholes might end up having the majority again in 2022. This is really so infuriating! They don’t work for the people anymore they work for themselves. To them we are just a piece of trash they can step all over.

The only solution is to vote them all out. Don’t give a dam how good they are or solid they are, clean freakin house and vote every single one of them into unemployment line out! And make sure their replacement gets scrutinized like proctologist fishing for corn! Look into 30 years of their life and anything they hid from public veiw, disqualifies them!
