Badlands News Brief
Israel’s Package, Biden’s Border and Putin’s Nukes
BURNING BRIGHT
NOV 3, 2023

House approves GOP’s $14.3 billion Israel aid package
House Republicans on Thursday approved a $14.3 billion aid package for Israel, setting the stage for a fierce showdown with Democrats in the Senate and White House who have savaged the GOP bill for excluding Ukraine funds and cutting IRS coffers.

The 226-196 vote fell almost entirely along party lines, with 12 Democrats joining all but two Republicans to move the bill through the lower chamber.

The Democratic opposition extends to the Senate, where Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) announced earlier Thursday that his chamber would not take up the “deeply flawed proposal.” Instead, he’s vowing to work with senators in both parties on a package that includes funding for Israel, Ukraine, competition with the Chinese government and humanitarian aid for Gaza.

The Biden administration has threatened to veto the House’s legislation, arguing in a statement that it is “bad for Israel, for the Middle East region, and for our own national security.”

The vote, nonetheless, marks an early victory for newly installed Speaker Mike Johnson (R-La.), who is seeking to unify a warring GOP conference in the wake of last month’s bitter vote to oust former Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) and the three-week battle to replace him. — The Hill

Our Take: “With news that the House has “passed” a $14.3 Billion Aid Package for Israel, many in the America First base are pretty pissed off, and rightly so, as we’re not interested in even financial involvement in any new Forever Wars.

BUT ... as I speculated a few days ago, if Mike Johnson really is a MAGA-endorsed Speaker, at least for the time being, it’s likely that he’s taking a page out of Matt Gaetz’ playbook and adding poison pills to any new Congressional spending packages that also serve a dual purpose as massive redpills.

First, Johnson maintained a firm stance on bifurcating aid to Israel and Ukraine, which the Uniparty responded to in typical reptilian fashion.

And today, he follows it up by taking a Narrative hammer to the IRS, pushing back on one of the most controversial domestic financial deployments of the Biden Admin.

Of course, this bill has no chance of passing the Senate, meaning:

Uniparty takes the blame from the public, making them ... antisemitic IRS apologists?”

The News of Today is the History of Tomorrow November 3, 2023
by: Larry Schweikart

IN POLITICAL NEWS

1) Speaker Johnson says the Uke aid bill will come next, but will be paired with border security.

-Like Rutabaga is gonna sign that.

2) Ron DeSantis is really baring it all, saying the “GOP won’t nominate President Trump” if he is convicted.

-Really? All that appeals stuff doesn’t matter? The desperation is strong with this one.

3) And this comes on the heels of the latest DeSantis row: “Republican elected officials in Florida are expected to flip their endorsements from DeSantis to President Trump next week.”

4) Some might see this as a shot across the bow of New Kabul Mayor Eric the Red Adams, who has been critical of Rutabaga for filling the Big Rotten Apple up with illegal criminals: the FascistBI raided the home of one of the mayor’s fundraisers.

5) Tennessee, nothing surprising in that Trump beats Rutabaga badly by the same margins as 2020. Sen. Marcia Blackburn is also crushing her opponent.

6) The case in Minnesota to keep President Trump off the ballot there has reached that state’s Supreme Court.

-Choose wisely, Supes or the D.C. Supes will do it for you.

7) A roofing company in Florida has offered a free turkey and an AR-15 in its Thanksgiving special.

8) The Army suddenly and “chaotically” told hundreds of soldiers they have to be recruiters immediately.

-Guess that recruitment into the woke military is not going well.

9) Oregon just dropped all graduation standards, including writing, reading, and math, in the name of “equity,” i.e., certain groups weren’t passing.

10) Long Beach residents slam the influx of mentally ill homeless on their sidewalks as one filmed a man masturbating against a hair salon’s glass window in view of horrified customers.

-You voted DemoKKKrat, voting for Cankles at 72%, Rutabaga at 71%. Enjoy!

11) President Trump called this right: The fight between Israel and Hamas is between civilization and savagery and “every single life lost . . . is on the shoulders of Hamas, Hamas alone.”

12) Quinnipiac says RFK, Jr. pulls more votes from President Trump than from Rutabaga.

13) Ooooh, the war-whores in the Senate are getting testy with Tommy Tuberville as he refuses to lift his hold on military promotions until Rutabaga changes the Pentagon’s policy for troops seeking an abortion. Sounds like Rutabaga holds the key to this one, folks.

14) Typical lib response. D.C. mayor Muriel Bow Wow Bowser will hand out air tags to residents to make it easier for them to track their stolen cars.

15) Investigators say they know where Jimmy Hoffia’s remains are: Milwaukee.

16) Predictably, 23 squish Republicans joined DemoKKKrats to torpedo a resolution to censure Congresswoman Rashida Tlaib (D-Palestine) over criticisms of Israel after Hamas murdered helpless concertgoers.

17) Now #bootgate made it to the UK Daily Mail.

18) Oh no she di-n’t. Nick Knack Paddywhack Give a Uke a Bomb compared her high heels to DeSantis’s lifts and asked if he could “run in ‘em.”

19) Well, this is different: an Ectopia (Portland) activist who supposedly worked on the city’s homelessness crisis was actually stealing the vagrants’ identities to scam thousands of taxpayer dollars.

IN CULTURE NEWS
20) Nearly 100 Ohio Methodist churches have left the Methodist Convention over homosexual policies.

21) And this is where, as Governor, Ron DeSantis has been exceptional: Florida has more homeschooled children of any U.S. state.

IN CHINA VIRUS NEWS
34) Elon Musk said that ventilators, not the China Virus, were responsible for millions of deaths.

35) If you have Netflix and need something to watch over the weekend, I have had great fun watching a show called “Super Pumped” about the rise of Uber with Joseph Gordon Levitt and also a show about Juul called “Big Vape.” Both really great. See ya on Monday!
