House Republican: Nancy Pelosi Pushes $5 Trillion Spending Spree Under Cover of Afghan Chaos
Breitbart ^ | 8/23/2021 | Wendell Husebø

Posted on 08/23/2021 4:40:37 PM PDT by Right Wing Vegan

Rep. August Pfluger (R-TX) said Monday that House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA) is using the cover of the chaos in Afghanistan to prioritize a $5 trillion spending spree.

“Nothing to see here, just Nancy Pelosi calling the US House back in to discuss $5 TRILLION in partisan spending—but no hearings scheduled on the ongoing situation in Afghanistan,” Pfluger tweeted.

“Washington’s priorities are backwards,” he added.

Rep. Jim Banks (R-ID) also echoed Pfluger’s comments, calling Pelosi’s scheme “shameful.”

“Meanwhile, while no one is paying attention, Pelosi is calling us back to DC tomorrow to vote on a nearly $5 trillion socialist big government takeover and a bill to federalize elections to take control from the states to help Dems win on Election Day,” Banks said. “Shameful!!”

I’m literally serious about NESARA.

No way NESARA can be ushered in to even a half-functioning FIAT system. NESARA is designed to bring the economy back from seared chared smoking embers of an economy.

We’ll need to see that before NESARA put in place. After that? Precious-metals backed currency (including crypto). No more fractional banking. Sovereign national control of the financial system (as opposed to the current FED).

"$5 TRILLION in partisan spending"

C'mon man, it's the "peace dividend"!
You remember the post Vietnam, government spending on "social programs" because "we were saving so much on military spending"? Bush and Thatcher tried it after the cold war as well. Think of the money we'll save by abandoning Afghanistan! /s

Gold and BTC are the hardest forms of money around, and theoretically, should do quite well when TSHTF. The one thing that could bring BTC down is quantum computing - which is unrelated to bad economic decisions.

We’ve heard this before:

The needs of the many outweigh the needs of the few, except her, the one.

“House Republican: Nancy Pelosi Pushes $5 Trillion Spending Spree Under Cover of Afghan Chaos”

She remembers “Rahm Emanuel - You never let a serious crisis go to waste” .... especially the one you create.
