Liberal Spending Packages

A quick update from D.C. - Usually, I am no fan of a continuing resolution because they represent a "kick the can down the road" approach when we should be passing our 12 appropriations bills on time, which hasn’t been done since 1997.

In the time it takes you to read this post, our national debt will have increased $15 million. You all need to understand just how serious this issue is.

In the dead of the night on Thursday at 2 am, the Swamp unleashed their second massive 1,000+ page minibus that amounts to a shocking $1.2 trillion in spending.  House Leadership broke the 72-hour rule that gives Members 3 days to read and review legislation, and a vote was taken in the House this morning. We were not given the chance to offer amendments or debate it. This +1,000… Read more »

EARMARKS ARE EVIL. Here are some highlights of the worst-of-the-worst earmarks in Chuck Schumer’s +1,000 page spending rampage. And keep in mind, we will be borrowing the money to pay for these pet-projects… 1. $1.6 million for “artist living and working space” in New York. No offense to NY, but I think y'all have some more urgent matters to attend to. 2. $1 million to expand a LGBT… Read more »

This year, the amount of money we’ll pay on INTEREST ALONE to service our national debt will exceed what we’re spending to fund the entire U.S. military. That’s according to the Congressional Budget Office (CBO). Let that sink in for a moment.  What we’ll spend this year to operate the U.S. Army, Navy, Air Force, Marines, National Guard, Coast Guard, and Space Force… take all those… Read more »

Check out a few of these examples, quoted directly from this report: 📛 federal grant to study Russian cats walking on a treadmill; 📛 Barbies used as proof of ID for… Read more »

When Biden took office, the average monthly payment for a new home was $1,787. Today, it’s $3,322.  That’s over $18,000 more per year to own a new home, according to the Wall Street Journal. I’m not saying Biden has some magic dial in the Oval Office that controls housing prices. But from his war on affordable energy, to his Administration’s quest for bigger government and more… Read more »
