The text of the 1,603-page, $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill was released yesterday after House and Senate leaders wrote it behind closed doors.
Instead of fighting for a provision that defunds the president's unlawful amnesty, Republican leaders fought for other riders.
For example, they airdropped a political earmark into the bill that increases the amount the National Republican Senatorial Committee (NRSC) can collect from individual donors from $32,400 per year to $324,000 – a tenfold increase.
Since the NRSC takes sides in primaries, the new donation limit will help the DC establishment do more to support liberal incumbents.
RINOIt's an earmark for RINOs!
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.
TAKE ACTION NOW
Congress will vote on the omnibus this Thursday so this is your last chance to stop the RINO earmark and to force lawmakers to defund the president's amnesty.
Republican leaders in the House do not have the votes to pass the bill so there's still time to defeat it.
Please call conservatives in the House and urge them to oppose the omnibus and to vote against the "rule" that brings it to the floor for debate.
Some lawmakers say they want to wait until next year to fight amnesty. They're making excuses. If this omnibus bill passes, Republicans will immediately lose their leverage to stop the president's unlawful action.

I already know for sure that is has been.
The GOP Judenrats have made sure of that.
I do not need to wait until January’s rubber stamp of the current GOP leadership to know and understand what the majority of Conservatives themselves REFUSE to accept and understand: the Republic has been fundamentally transformed into an Imperial Fascist Oligarchy.
Sadly, I agree.
Judenrats?
I think the world has been down this road before, unless I have misunderstood your coinage.
That is exactly what they are.
Serving up the chosen objects of destruction for the dictatorship so as to have a seat at the table, an extra ration of bread, or attentions focused on victims instead of themselves.
Judenrat
noun ( pl. Judenrate
a council representing a Jewish community, esp. in German-occupied territory during World War II.
ORIGIN German, ‘Jewish council.’
You seem to be well aware of the implications of your slur, I need only highlight your thoughts.
Are you in alignment with ends of Hamas, The Muslim brotherhood, and Neo-Nazis as well?
Give the insult a rest pal.
I had relatives who survived the Nazis in Poland who used that term to describe people they saw as selling them out at work - because Judenrats served up their own people to the Gestapo and the SS in order to get better treatment or ‘goodies’ from those the Nazis pillaged.
So my descriptive applies to the GOP Ruling Class Oligarchy whether you like the term or not. It is as apt a description of who and what they are politically as anything else.
Does the individual limit extend to other PAC’s as well? If so, I’m for it.

Surprise, surprise.
Boehner gained control of the GOP House in 1996. Read about his coup against Conservatives in this bio of former Congressman Bill Paxon. You'll see just who Boehner is and what he has done. A few more bonus names you'll recognize as well appear in the article. Boehner is not being blackmailed. He's on a deliberate course to shut out Conservatism.
BUMP CALL HOUSE AND SENATE
melt the phones
break the media blackout
I’m just waiting for these fools to come out of the Free Republic woodwork in 2016 and start their “a vote for anyone but a Republican is a vote for a Democrat” balderdash.
No - it’s designed to counter the Senate Conservatives Fund and replace all the money the GOP is losing from the grassroots so as to allow the Corporatists to ensure the Oligarchy remains in power.
This is what tyranny looks like folks.
It’s sad how comfortable or clueless the majority of Americans are to where we have arrived.
My apology, I wasn’t sure where you were going with your accusation. I’m not Jewish, and although I ‘m aware, only vaguely, of this unique story in history, I am reluctant to condemn those whose were forced to live under such circumstances, I cannot image the pressure and absurd stress of those who live through this nightmare, and experienced the worst of an insane world.
This is why I ask questions, I do not know your history or anything about you, I hope you are wrong about the GOP, however I see that your analogy may be too close for comfort.
You clearly have very strong convictions, which I respect and hope that you take no offense to my inquiry.
No offense taken.
Until someone comes up with a better analogy of what the GOP Ruling Class leadership is actually doing to We The Conservative People- Judenrat is the best descriptive based on what they are doing to us politically: making us irrelevant and wiping us out on behalf of Obama and the Democrats.
Correction on link https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bill_Paxon I posted the wrong link sorry.
Like I’ve never done that! :)
I knew where we were heading when GHWB was forced on Reagan.
Still, it’s the Republican primary voters making all of these bad choices.
Thanks for that. I wish more of us had an ear for it. We passed the point where any “legal” means of resistance would be effective several years ago.
Business owners can no longer manage their businesses according to their beliefs. Citizens can no longer rent or lease their property to whom they please. If the government can get more taxes if another entity owns it, then the government will take it and sell it to that entity. Free speech as the Constitution allows is disappearing at breakneck speed. Our children are being taught a revised history of this nation that will destroy any respect they may have for it, ever. And the list gets longer daily.
There is no easy way out of the sorry state we’ve allowed this nation to fall into. The longer we try to find the easy out, the more impossible it will become.
