Newt Gingrich: Pelosi’s crazy $3T coronavirus spending bill may have secret purpose – Don’t underestimate her
Fox News ^ | May 16, 2020 | Newt Gingrich

When House Speaker Nancy Pelosi announced the $3 trillion coronavirus spending bill she and her allies had written – a bill passed by House Democrats Friday night with only a single Republican vote in support – my first reaction was that it would be dead on arrival in the Senate and that the move made no sense.

The bill is the most expensive spending bill ever passed in the history of the House of Representatives, but Pelosi took no public comment, no Republican input, and didn’t consult with the Republican-controlled Senate or the White House on the bill.

As we learned about the nuttier parts of the bill after it was introduced, it struck me almost as a joke.

In fact, I tweeted: “How do you explain a House Democratic Party so crazy that their new $3 trillion proposal has 68 references to Cannabis and only 52 references to jobs? Maybe Speaker Pelosi of San Francisco believes ‘California Dreamin’ could become the new national anthem.”

There are a remarkable number of impossible-to-explain provisions in the bill. Some of them would:

Provide money to people in the country illegally.

Allow illegal immigrants to work when more than 30 million Americans are out of work.

Provide taxpayer funding for abortion, even though Americans oppose taxpayer funding for abortions by 55 percent to 29 percent.

Block voter identification laws – even though 80 percent of Americans favor such laws.

Give state and local governments, which already collect your tax dollars, $1 trillion more of your tax dollars.

Give a tax cut to the richest Americans in blue states.

Impose a host of other liberal fantasies on Americans.

In fact, the bill is so bad that I had also tweeted: “Trump District Democrats need to be pushed on their support or opposition to the...

McConnell will “negotiate” it to $2.5 trillion and then Senate Republicans will beat their chests how they saved $500 billion when that’s what Nancy wanted anyway.

One of the things where Trump was successful was getting people back to work. One way he did this was he let their perpetual welfare run out — food stamps, unemployment, etc. People had to get off their welfare dime and get a job. The unemployment numbers were as good as ever. Things were going well.

Democrats are trying to make it to where people can SIT ON THEIR ASSES UNTIL AFTER THE ELECTION. They don’t care how many people it hurts as long as it helps them gain power.

"The bill is the most expensive spending bill ever passed in the history of the House of Representatives, but Pelosi took no public comment, no Republican input, and didn’t consult with the Republican-controlled Senate or the White House on the bill."

But will any of the turds in the MSM slam her for secrecy, for lack of bipartisanship, or for an authoritarian and anti-democratic approach? Nope.

The Speaker lost control of her caucus. She did not get all the plantation slaves on board

screenshot of Pelosi and Newt....

If that had been Biden:

Biden: Move a little farther, Nan, I can barely get my hands around your hips. And what’s that smell when I sniff your hair and snuggle your neck? Ick.

Nancy: Excess Botox seeps out of my pours as sweat droplets. My body has to excrete it or else metabolize it. Stinks, I know. Just a side effect. Get over it.

Former Mayor Pete's "husband" : Hey, Pete darling, that means it could retire your losing campaign debt, huh?"

Pete: "Aw shutup and do the dishes."

...."Don't underestimate her...."

That's what they said about the works of Satan. True of both.
