Filiblustering the Future of America

The pace is quickening for House Democrats with last week’s passage of a troika of contrany titled bills now in the Senate hopper. First to switch chambers was House Bill (HB) 1319, the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021. That was followed by HB1, For the People Act, and HB1280, the George Floyd Justice in Policing Act.

For the privilege of being rescued, middle-class Americans will be rode hard by a $1.9 trillion price tag against their future liquidity and that of their children. HB1319 is dressed up with promises of compensation checks, virus testing and vaccines, food stamp and school programs, homeowner tax breaks, psychological services, and other pandemic head fakes. In sum, actual relief doesn’t add up to a whole hell of a lot, nine percent, in fact, of all allocated funds.

Democrats are using pandemic-related as a generous definition for pandemic relief. Much of HB1319 is a watering trough that buys off a voting constituency and finances progressive pet projects, funds Planned Parenthood and abortions, doles out loyalty payments to teachers unions, bails out fiscally-irresponsible blue states, imputes racial equity qualifications for farm grants, and sends billions to overseas COVID efforts after paring down relief checks to Americans.

HB1, in contradiction to its altruistic title, For the People Act, encourages continued election hijinks by Beltway bluebloods and greatly harms the body politic by upending sovereign state protocols. The bill seeks to strip federalism from the states, facilitates statehood for the District of Columbia and Puerto Rico, imposes voter requirements that will embrace illegal alien registration, ignores the Constitution by allowing convicted felons to vote, sanctions ballot harvesting, prevents the auditing and updating of registration databases that turn once living Republicans into dead Democrat voters,

We gave up on having the filibuster as a tool to stop the Democrats when we listed to Lin Wood and helped the Democrats take the Senate in the January runoffs, by sitting out that election to ‘teach the GOP a lesson’ (despite Trump going to Georgia, twice, to tell us to vote there).

Question though: Has the GOP learned their lesson yet? After all, wasn’t that our ‘brilliant’ strategy? If not, then what was our strategy - maybe making it so easy for the Democrats to win that they wouldn’t have to even cheat anymore? Pretty smart!!!

Anyway, all I see is a country about to be destroyed because we handed the Democrats the keys to the country, you know, to ‘teach the GOP a lesson’. What part of our ‘brilliant strategy’ of listening to Lin Wood am I not getting, and why was Trump such an IDIOT for going to Georgia, twice?

The GA victory for Dems had more to do with Big Butt Stacey producing over a million cheat-by-mail-in ballots that were dropped off in boxes with no chain of custody more than it did GOP voters staying at home.

Also, there could not have been two worse candidates than the RINOs that were running; especially that Loefller bimbo that Kemp appointed instead of the much stronger candidate Collins.
