I’ve always detested this clown. He was the keynote speaker at my nephew’s college graduation. He spent the whole hour just talking about himself and how wonderful he is. Total narcissist.

One must ask why the democraps are solidly behind biden’s obsession with giving Ukraine billions of our money. They must all know that biden is being blackmailed, and forced into sending our money.

“The new speaker knows perfectly well that if you want to help Israel, you cant propose legislation that is full of poison pills.” So a clean bill with no aid to anyone other than Israel for Israeli aid is full of poison pills?

It would not matter if the bill fulfilled their absolute wildest dreams because if it is from the House and Johnson it is cannon fodder for the likes of schumer.

Thank you for referencing that article RandFan.

"SCHUMER on the SENATE FLOOR on House GOP Israel bill: "Woefully inadequate" He says it has "no aid for Ukraine""


FR: Never Accept the Premise of Your Opponent’s Argument

Post-17th Amendment ratification Schumer unsurprisingly doesn't seem to understand (blatantly ignores?) that Justice Joseph Story had clarified that peacetime foreign aid is unconstitutional.

"If the tax be not proposed for the common defence, or general welfare, but for other objects, wholly extraneous, (as for instance, for propagating Mahometanism among the Turks, or giving aids and subsidies to a foreign nation, to build palaces for its kings, or erect monuments to its heroes,) it would be wholly indefensible upon constitutional principles [emphases added].” — Justice Joseph Story, Commentaries on the Constitution 2 (1833).

And since other senators are not standing up against Schumer's unconstitutional foreign aid, both Democratic and Republican Trump-supporters need to primary as many senators up for reelection as they can in 2024.

OUR GOVERNMENT HAS DONE ‘BUNDLING” with bills for far too long.

NOW-—people think THAT is how it should be done.

I disagree-—and have for a very long time.

Such packaging of a number of bills into a ONE VOTE situation
allows too may items to be hidden & are poison pills.

IF An EXPENDITURE is truly worthy-—and CAN BE AUDITED-—then it can stand alone.

HIDING TRASH inside the treasures is just plain WRONG...IT always has been.

JUT LIKE OBAMACARE——”YOU CAN READ THE BILL AFTER YOU VOTE FOR IT.” That is also a dirty trick.

WE WILL BE PAYING FOR THAT DECISION FOR MANY GENERATIONS.

Tucker Carlson – President Trump vs The UniParty Neocons

June 13, 2023 | Sundance | 382 Comments

[...]

This creates the two wings of the Uniparty apparatus.

This is the main distinction between the two corporations that align with mutually beneficial non-compete clauses.

As long as democrats allow republicans to operate systems toward their objective, the assembly of wealth, there is no opposition to the democrat agenda of social control.  This is the baseline of the political frustration noted by almost all “republican” voters.  The GOP politicians who are created by the billionaire donors are not acting on a priority to defend, preserve or support individual liberty.  The GOP politicians prioritize what their benefactors tell them to prioritize, the assembly of wealth and financial control.

It is accurate that DC republicans and democrats are aligned in foreign policy. 

Democrats want interventionist policy to create larger power centers for globalization and dominance in social systems. 

However, the core of the republican opposition to Donald Trump is not directly related to foreign policy, their opposition is related to how economic control is diminished under the Trump America-First program, and as an extension this diminishes interventionist foreign policy spending.

Democrats do not like the inability to influence global affairs because they want social controls. 

Republicans do not like the inability to influence global affairs as a tool to protect their financial structures. 

[...]

Schumer's pissed because you CAN'T LAUNDER and STEAL TAXPAYER DOLLARS without allocating the funds first.

What a PHONY BASTARD!

Well, that makes HIM the bad guy, doesn’t it? Personally, if Johnson hangs tight, then I think Schumer will have to relent, and instruct his cohort to vote for it.
