Paul Ryan BLOCKS Trump's Border Wall in New Spending Bill - Time To Go
the Goldwater ^

Posted on 03/21/2018 5:24:29 PM PDT by MNDude

House Majority Leader Paul Ryan (R-WI) has introduced one of the largest spending bills in the history of the United States of America's government with nearly a trillion dollars in expenses - but has failed to produce the necessary $25 billion President Trump has required for his Border Wall proposal.

Included in the massive waste of spending is nearly $30 billion for Obamacare markets, that will “fund insurer payments known as cost-sharing reduction payments for three years, and offer $30 billion in reinsurance funds distributed evenly for three years,” according to the Washington Examiner.

The influx of cash for the disastrous Obamacare is known as “TITLE IV BIPARTISAN HEALTH CARE STABILIZATION,” which is certain to infuriate Trump voters who have long since demanded a full repeal of Obamacare, after the GOP included a repeal of the individual mandate in last year's historic reform proposals which eventually passed and benefitted the American people with enormous bolsters to their income.

Below is the proposal to reinvigorate the Obamacare markets:

Paul Ryan BLOCKS Trump's Border Wall in New Spending Bill - Time To Go

President Trump will not sign on with a higher spending bill than the one last year, plus this one was not only signed by McConJob and Paul Ryno but also with Smerkula and Nancy Pelousy.

Gosh, what could go wrong with these fools signing on to the increased spending bill.

We need to know how the whole senate and house will vote for this omnibus spending bill for the umpteenth time.

Paul Ryno and Mitch McConJob are not leaders in their party anymore. They have enriched themselves on K-Street, Special Interests, Special Lobbyists, and the U.S. Chamber of Commerce $$$$. They really are a big joke on us.

Partner, I really like those pics.

We r so tired of the "R's" right now. Mich McConJob and Paul Ryno definitely will not be around much longer since they are pulling the same thing they have done since that America Hating Obama spent our hard earned tax dollars like Obama was a king.

Well, I didn’t actually mean that literally, *J, but as a common figure of speech.

We’re going to have to let Trump play this out. By now, Trump knows who is owned and by whom. We also know we’re in a state of psychological warfare state at this point, induced by the media and academia, but it isn’t working, and people are waking up.

Thank God for the Freedom Caucus in the House of Reps. We need more of them and fewer RINOS. Midterms matter.

Our job is to get engaged at the local level wherever we live and build a machine. Democrats aren’t lazy. They’re everywhere organizing to get the have nots out to vote, or show up at their County Convention. Call your party chairman and ask questions.

Just as itsahot said...and as I feared as well...he will. He will sign it....and he knows he got screwed on the border wall...yet he's tweeting on it like he didn't.

Some of us have been saying for a LONG TIME...there won't be a wall. Trump doesn't have the political capital to expend to GET it. He doesn't want a shut down...not now. The back room deals of congress of got the dems to forget DACA...and to come on board with a lot of military spending...and a shut down would be ALL TRUMP. It would be TOTALLY blamed on him. He doesn't have enough political capital to take that heat right now. That's the truth of the matter...and he knows it.

He doesn’t want the wall anymore than they do. All smoke and mirrors. Pretty soon, it won’t matter. The voting demographics in this country are changing so fast, with all the 3rd world ugly that comes in and the fact that they’re allowed to give birth to citizens at an alarming rate. The Republicans, and us, have this election cycle. By 2020, the country as we know it, is over. Florida will go Dem across the board with all the Puerto Rican’s that have moved there, on top of all the NE liberals and Dem’s. So, there goes those electoral votes.

Unless the states start breaking away, the US will be nothing but Europe within 4-8 years. Overrun with immigrants, taxes out the ass, no guns, free speech laws, you name it. A radical, liberal paradise.

We the People do not need a strong military, at this time, nearly as much as we need a strong border and a STRONG PRESIDENT to defend it against globalist subversion.

DRAIN THE SWAMP, ....don’t fund with a 1.3 trillion shot in the arm.....the monster thrives on deficit spending.....

Mitt Romney's lackey -- another crypto-Leftist pretending to be a Republican. Ain't it great?

2018 is going to be an absolute electoral bloodbath.

If this bill passes as-is, I’ll be sitting out the next election.

Oh, an agent provocateur.

Go sodomize yourself with a high-speed rotary porcupine, and then tell Cass Sunstein he's paying you too much. You failed.

I reply to you with a quote from Samuel Adams:

“If ye love wealth better than liberty, the tranquility of servitude better than the animating contest of freedom,go home from us in peace. We ask not your counsels or your arms. Crouch down and lick the hands which feed you. May your chains set lightly upon you,and may posterity forget that you were our countrymen.”

Thank you for your participation!

Save your hot head rhetoric.

All you see is men doing things to enslave other men, but men are not in charge.

We are nearing the end of the “End Times,” and those troubling prophecies in the Revelation have begun to unfold.

Around this time in 2021 the “Little Horn” will take a prominant position in European politics, and I can promise you things will quickly make present difficulties look like a May Day picnic.

Do you think your “cartridge box” will overcome what is written in the word of God?

Here is the unspoken bottom line on the BUDGET deal: We need to FIX the MILITARY QUICK ... because it MAY STOP A WAR ... and, if it doesn’t, then we will really need it.

I believe President Trump has prioritized upgrading the military at all costs, because it is an immediate existential need, and he plans to return to the budget issues later. Not everyone will agree with this; but, he is CINC; meaning, HE KNOWS what is likely to transpire in the next few years.

The grand plan is to reverse the decline in American strength.

This is NOT a neocon (i.e., globalist) position. It is an America First position.

Personally, I expect war (hopefully brief, but very devastating) with N.K., a face-off with China in the South China Sea, and possibly leading our allies in the Mideast (including Israel and Saudi Arabia) to forcibly denuclearize Iran. (Such action will be highly dependent on U.S. Reaper drones and many other air, sea and space capabilities.)

We cannot do all this with Obama’s hamstrung, fairy-dust military.

Easy peasy: Trump, veto the spending bill and promise to personally campaign against any republican who votes to override.
