[EXCERPT] According to an article written by former U.S. Representative Bob Barr, hidden away in the recently passed infrastructure bill, the very one I warned before would negatively impact drivers across the country if it were to pass, is a measure to install vehicle kill switches into every new car, truck, and SUV sold in this country. The regulation likely won’t be enforced for five years, so maybe there’s time to do something about this. …It gets even better: Barr points out that the bill, which has been signed into law by President Biden, states that the kill switch, which...

Inflation is always and everywhere a monetary phenomenon, as Milton Friedman, the economist and intellectual author of the Reagan Revolution used to explain. Which means that when Federal Reserve prints out more cash to shell out for bigger and bigger government programs, look out. Inflation is on the way. Don't take this from me, this time. It's now what one of President Obama's top economic advisors is now warning as Joe Biden gets ready to sign the $1.7 trillion Omnibus bill passed by Congress, including 18 skeevy Republicans: On Friday’s broadcast of MSNBC’s “Morning Joe,” Steve Rattner, who served as...

Dr. Naomi Wolf sits down with husband and private investigator Brian O’Shea to get to the bottom of what’s exactly in this bill. https://substack.com/app-link/post?publication_id=676930&post_id=92575963&utm_source=podcast-email&play_audio=true&token=eyJ1c2VyX2lkIjo0OTkyNjMwOCwicG9zdF9pZCI6OTI1NzU5NjMsImlhdCI6MTY3MTg0MjQ4OSwiZXhwIjo .

Greedy Democrats are spending money they do not have on the backs of the American taxpayers, who they treat like they are drunks in the middle of the night at an ATM machine.Shocking evidence has emerged from their insane, self-glorifying massive $1.7 trillion spending package of a suspicious provision that involves radical Marxist Michelle Obama, who is married to another radical Marxist, former POTUS Barack Obama.“In the legislation lies $3.6 million to fund the Michelle Obama Trail—PATH Trail Project,” Carmine Sabia reported for Conservative Brief, adding a slam by Freedom House Caucus member:“The Democrats’ reckless omnibus bill spends YOUR money...

As opposition to Washington’s Ukraine blank check mounts, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer has signaled that the next huge check – nearly $38 billion – will be conveniently hidden in a year-end, must-pass omnibus bill. It’s a way to keep the gravy train flowing while sparing Members the inconvenience of having to face voters. Also today…White House to send more troops into Ukraine. What could go wrong?

Dave explains exactly why President Trump signed this bill; and the consequences as to what will soon be seen.

The attack on Traveling Poet and Iranian General Solemani was not a traditional “missile attack” according to a new dossier leaked to Genesius Times. After the successful passing of the omnibus spending bill, a paper copy was delivered by US Senator and Presidential Candidate Joe Biden to the Quds force commander in a routine democrat giving info to an enemy of the USA operation. As the bill was being airdropped from a helicopter to Soleimani via parachute, the harness failed to secure the item, resulting in the $1.4 trillion spending package slamming into the vehicle that Soleimani and Friends...

<p>So, lighten the f—k up and give President Trump some breathing room. Save your “pining, puling, mumping” moods for those who deserve it – say Congress.</p> <p>Geeze Louise, to listen to Rush Limbaugh, Ann Coulter, and a host of other fair-weather friends you would think that President Trump has started eating aborted fetuses for breakfast. Get a grip people, he signed a short-term Omnibus spending bill, he didn’t give away the keys to the kingdom.</p>

"All you need to know why this was a bad bill is to look at the roll call," a long-time Republican lobbyist emailed me Saturday, referring to the $1.3 trillion omnibus spending law. Of course, he's right. President Donald Trump reluctantly signed the $1.3 trillion spending bill Friday, but a careful review of the crucial Senate vote shows it was Democratic members, not Republicans, that actually passed the bill. In another major embarrassment to Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell, his own Republican caucus opposed the very bill he negotiated. The omnibus bill passed the Senate by a vote of 65...

Please forgive my english .. I am one who was disgusted yesterday with that omnibus bill but according to Isaac Green, who DID read the bill, a lot of good news in there. He gives details and parts of the bill that says that here is NO funding for ABORTION - NO ABORTION can be financed by government money!!! Also here is 80 Billions for the army engineers that is funded so it can be used to build the wall. And so much more. Please listen to this video. Everything Isaac Green says is highighted on the right side of...

Now that President Trump didn't veto this monster spending bill, I believe it was more about the threat of Fedgov shutdown than the immediacy to re-build our military. He would be the target because of the MSM hating Trump, while those media outlets being a blatant supporter of all things Democrat/Liberal and even Socialism.

You owe it to your country, Sir, to pick them up, dust them off, and ready them for the coming new battle. Unfortunately, Round 2 has already slipped away from ‘Making America Great Again’ to ‘Saving America Again’ It was, as a caller told Rush Limbaugh today, a snake bite in the butt, President Trump. Your suddenly changing course and signing the outrageous Omnibus Bill, that is. Up to now, you’ve done a good job remaining loyal to the things you promised some 63 million people who voted for you. Now many of them will say you are a politician...

The Senate on Thursday passed a $1.1 trillion funding bill which includes a number of provisions to help Israel address security-related challenges. Senators voted 79-18 in favor of the bill, which will passed the House on Wednesday. The Omnibus Appropriations bill for Fiscal Year 2017 provides $3.1 billion plus an additional $75 million in overall security assistance to Israel. […] The bill also includes a provision that reduces aid to the Palestinian Authority (PA) on a dollar-for-dollar basis for any support the PA, the Palestine Liberation Organization (PLO) and any affiliated organization provides to terrorists or their families. …

Here is an idea for an effective way for Donald Trump to push back against the Republican establishment. Trump should simply announce that any member of Congress who voted against the omnibus bill has his support for re-election, and he should invite those individuals to appear with him at campaign appearances or otherwise provide similar access for them. Conversely, he should announce that any challenger to an incumbent member of Congress who voted for the omnibus bill has his support and access. This could effectively have a chilling impact on the donor class that controls the Republican Party and seems...

Sen. Jeff Sessions has had it with his Republican colleagues, and took to the floor this week to deliver a scathing speech in which he asked, "Who do we represent?" The Alabama Republican was talking about a $1.1 trillion omnibus spending bill that extends tax credits to people who don't pay taxes -- including illegal immigrants. He was talking about a bill that offers sales tax deductions for those who live in jurisdictions without sales taxes. He was talking about a bill that delays implementation of Obamacare's "Cadillac tax" for two years, well after the president is out of office....

Saturday night, the Senate voted on a constitutional point of order raised by Sen. Ted Cruz (R-TX)95%. Heritage Action’s chief executive officer Michael A. Needham explained the vote this way: “If Senators are opposed to President Obama’s executive action on immigration, they should vote in favor of Sen. Cruz’s constitutional point of order. A vote against the point of order is a vote in favor of unchecked presidential power and granting work permits and Social Security numbers to people who are in the country illegally.” While 22 Republican Senators voted to uphold the constitutional point of order, 20 Republican Senators...

For the past week, Sen. Harry Reid has worked hard to prevent a vote on President Obama’s illegal executive amnesty. [snip] Only one month ago President Obama announced amnesty for roughly five million people here illegally. He did so in defiance of the manifest will of the voters [snip] [snip] Even more troubling was how the amnesty was decreed: by executive fiat, directly contrary to federal immigration law and to the Constitution. [snip] [snip] If Congress does nothing in response, we acquiesce to this constitutional crisis. [snip] Some critics have disingenuously suggested that, by fighting on amnesty, we somehow facilitated...

The only ethical response to betrayal by one's own leader is to find a new leader. There have been famous betrayals, but for America one stands out. Benedict Arnold was a general in the American Revolution. Thousands of officers and enlisted followed him, obeyed him, attended to his every word. That was prior to September 21, 1780 and his plot with the British to turn over the critically strategic ground of West Point to the British in exchange for money and position. After his betrayal of his country, it would have been a strange thing indeed to have found his...
