“Look, you’ve had Washington, D.C., that has been, you know, paralyzed by gridlock and partisan infighting for many years, and in this new president you have someone who was able to bring people together and make a $21 billion increase in defense spending at a time of great challenge for America’s interests around the world. And that’s a — you know, he spoke about that today, surrounded by a lot of great members of the United States Air Force.”

Globalist conservatism in a nutshell here — cite some mindless military worship to justify selling out the American people. The only real threats to American security are from out of control immigration. We don’t need more corporate welfare for the defense industry.

I agree. “Hey we got more money for defense and tough luck on everything else we promised.”

A while back on a local Houston talk radio station, Kevin Brady came on as a guest. They opened the phone lines. So, I called to ask Rep. Kevin Brady a question...and gave a comment.

So Mr Brady, you know as well as I that these continuing resolutions are NOT constitutional. The constitution mandates congress to formulate a budget. Each and every agency is to submit their budgets and they are to be debated/scrutinized. Lumping all spending together in one vote only serves to continue out of control spending.

Rep. Brady agreed. Then went on to say, this CR will fund the military...blah blah blah. He then said, “when it comes to the military, I will vote YES every time”.

Cloak this irresponsible, monumental fiscal mismanagement with support for the military. Good grief!

Out of control government at it's finest.

It took 3 months, but Pence is finally sounding like a typical politician - talking points and all. Not good.

Kudos to Rush for lighting a fire under Pence.

Didn’t Pence get the memo. Conservatives do NOT want compromises with Democrats.

The more refugees and illegals and H1Bs allowed into the USA, the more profitable is our surveillance industry. These all represent potential threats and it gives them an excuse to spy and steal rights from legacy Americans. We are being led to our own demise by liberals and globalist fools that are getting rich on our loss.
