Good job, 19 Republicans who voted for the $1.2 trillion “infrastructure” bill: that will be used to pass the insane $3.5 trillion America changing bill
Senate passes framework of $3.5T budget reconciliation package in party-line vote
The Senate voted early Wednesday to pass the framework of the hotly contested, $3.5 trillion budget reconciliation package after a nearly 15-hour-long vote-a-rama in Washington, D.C., and if there was any camaraderie on the bipartisan infrastructure bill, it seemed to have taken a holiday after this vote.
The vote was procedural and the initial step in the budget reconciliation process that could eventually allow Democrats to pass the package without a single Republican vote. The vote on Wednesday was 50-49, and straight down party lines.
Sen. Pat Toomey, R-Pa., said the resolution paves the way “for legislation that would redefine the very role of the federal government in the lives of average Americans, all under a 50-50 Senate, a razor-thin majority in the House, and a President who was elected on moderation.”
“After Democrats shamelessly used COVID as an excuse to pass a partisan $2 trillion liberal wish-list in March, Budget Chairman Bernie Sanders has brought the rest of his party along for another $3.5 trillion that seeks to increase dependency of the middle class on the federal government, re-engineer the economy to benefit liberal interest groups, and provide tax breaks to the ultra-wealthy in Democrat-run states,” Toomey said in a statement.
Well, you and the rest of the Senate Republicans should have worked to stop the 19 idiots from voting for the initial “infrastructure” deal.
Sen. Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., praised the vote and said the budget will “bring a generational transformation on how our economy works for average Americans.”
“It’ll cut taxes for American families, it’ll lower costs for everyone,” the Senate majority leader said. “It’ll create good paying jobs while tackling climate change. And it will be paid for by making our tax code more progressive and more fair, asking corporations in the wealthy to pay their fair share.”
It’ll see corporations pass on those taxes to Americans. And cause lots and lots of companies to move their registration to other countries.
(Breitbart) The $3.5 trillion represents a top line budget number, which includes many items self-designated socialist Sen. Bernie Sanders (I-VT) facies, such as expanding medicare, global warming initiatives, and suburb displacement with low-income housing, subsidized housing, subsidized childcare, and subsidized racial equity and environmental justice.
There is, as you know, lots and lots of Progressive crazy in that bill, and they’ll add lots and lots more of Progressive (nice Fascism) crazy into it. It will, as Chuck says “bring a generational transformation”, not just of our economy, but how the federal government controls your life. And, I have to wonder, will the passage finally cause a split in the nation, where Red states say “enough, we’re no longer dealing with this”? That the U.S. is no longer the nation as deemed in the Constitution, hence, split it? Especially when they are going to take another shot at passing their For The People Act, a virtual takeover of all elections by the Federal government. Which they might try and slip into the $3.5 trillion, along with mass amnesty.
