While many conservatives celebrate the abrupt resignation of Speaker Rep. John Boehner (R-OH), business groups backed by mega corporations are finalizing plans to neuter conservative lawmakers in 2016. The U.S. Chamber will take the lead, planning to spend $100 million in 2016, a large portion of which will be devoted to defeat conservatives in Republican primaries. Roll Call reports that “some of business’ top targets in 2016 will be right-wing, tea party candidates, the types that have bucked the corporate agenda in Congress.” The $100 million the Chamber plans to spend this cycle is close to triple the amount the group spent in 2012, when President Obama was running for reelection. In 2014, when the Chamber launched its effort to attack conservatives in primaries, the group spent close to $70 million. The evolution of the Chamber’s political spending goes a long way to explain the current dysfunction in Washington. The organization will devote $170 million to combat conservatives in primaries and support establishment Republicans in the general, but only around $30 million when Obama is running for reelection. At the time business groups announced their heavy involvement in Republican primaries, Scott Reed, the Chamber’s top political consultant said, “the need is now more than ever to elect people who understand the free market and not silliness.” The top legislative priorities for the U.S. Chamber, and many business groups, are reinstatement of the Export-Import Bank, an immigration overhaul that greatly expands the number of both legal workers and foreign work visas, and an overhaul of the corporate income tax.

The cloak has come off of those who are against us and our people.
We can thank Cruz and others in the House and a few in the Senate for that.
But a big tip of the Make America Great Again hat goes to the Donald.
Are eyes were blind, but now we see.

AMEN!
Yes! We are discussing these very things in my household (Russia/Iran situation, Obama, eliminating God from everything, false preachers, ect.)
Ezekiel, Daniel, & Revelation are the Books that one can read to see where we are headed SOON.
the chamber will never get another dime of my money.
When you have spare time, I highly recommend Jack Kelley’s articles.
He breaks down all the books you mentioned earlier (Ezekiel, Daniel, Revelation) into what is currently happening now.
God Bless!
That might be a good question to ask before buying. “Are you a member?”
surprise surprise surprise
The US Chamber of Crony Capitalism shows its true colors
This is one way to insure that the Republican party never wins another election.
Makes one wonder if the leadership of the Chamber has been taken over by Democrat "double agents"....
Business is the Chamber and the Chamber is business at any cost. Patriotism and Conservatism are merely their marketing adornments.
Chamber of Whores.
... The $100 million the Chamber plans to spend this cycle is close to triple the amount the group spent in 2012, when President Obama was running for reelection...
Where is this money coming from ??????
Oil Sheiks?
Wall Street types heavy into the Carry Trade?
Why do they keep calling themselves the Chamber of Commerce? All they do is advocate flooding this nation with cheap Third World labor. Start referring to them as the Chamber of Amnesty or the Chamber of Illegals.
BTTT!
I would love for Donald to say something about this...
It’s going to cost them a lot more than that. Conservatives are going to oppose them every chance they get for many years to come.
They are painting themselves into a corner and spending a lot of money doing it.
I will! Thank you and God bless!
Really??? Where did you read that?
