Uh, Congresswoman, I'm Not Sure That Option to Pass Build Back Better Is Legal

For all the talk about institutional integrity, protecting our constitutional republic, and a return to norms, the far-left sure likes to disregard that when they lose. You all know this. The institutional rot never came from Trump. It was always the left-winger in the Democratic Party. The call was coming from inside the house—and the latest blow to Build Back Better is the latest example. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) killed the trillion-dollar-plus spending bill that Biden and the Democrats desperately want to pass.

The Biden administration needs to clinch a signature legislative win. And the Democrats need something to run on in 2022 that isn’t grounded in Joe Biden’s astonishing aloofness as our chief executive. The man pooped himself in front of the Pope. Need I say more. So, as this legislation enters Hospice care, Biden insists that he and Manchin will get something done. The other side of that remark is that whatever these come to an agreement on will probably not pass the smell test for the far left. So, what does Rep. Pramila Jayapal (D-WA) think Joe should do because of this setback? Oh, he should just pass it via executive decree (via Axios):

Lefties constantly accused Trump of “shredding the constitution,” and “disregarding the rule of law”.

Just projection.

Conman Biden duped the dummies in Delaware for fifty years.

He figured as president, “just being Joe” would be enough....smooth sailing for him, drJill and Kamala after he stole the election.

Watta shock when he realized he was expected to “do something.” But everything he did drove his numbers deeper into the fetid Deep State sewer.

Onward......ever onward. He got a new dog, Kamala got a personality makeover and Jill stupidly brought in the Dancing Nurses.

To no avail. He’s officially over the rainbow.

Biden recently told drJill, “I don’t think we’re in Delaware anymore.”

They don’t care about legal, they were behind the Kenyanesian Usurpation and they currently have an illegitimate Indo-Jamaican usurping the VP chair.

And the GOP went along because Cruz, Rubio, Jindal, Haley and George P. Bush are similarly ineligible.

Yeah, I’m not so sure that’s legal, Jayapal.

Was Obama giving billions and billions of dollars to the Iranian mullahs legal? Was Obama selling M-16s to Mexican drug lords legal? Was DACA legal?

Nope. The Democrats love Arbitrary government. Too many Republicans love it too. With all of these if government can get away with doing it then it must be legal.

So Jayapal is saying Biden should have power of the purse now, too?
Gov't should be much more efficient with all law and financial decisions coming from one man.
What kind of gov't is that called again?
