democrats’ worst fears are coming true

Nancy Pelosi called it the "worst bill in the history of Congress"  She said the bill will hurt little children like Tiny Tim.

Chuck Schumer was so pissed off that Republicans wouldn't stop talking and listen to him insult them about it. He also suggested people will die as a result of its passage. Do they really believe that? No. Then what is the real fright?

Well, the tax reform bill passed and if this is any indication, it will be interesting.

AT&T announced that because of tax reform they will be giving a $1,000 bonus to 200,000 employees. And that's not all.

AT&T was quick to respond to news of U.S. tax reform, announcing it would give some employees bonuses once the law is official.

The telecom giant said in a press release on Wednesday that it would give more than 200,000 U.S. union members a special bonus of $1,000. The company also increased its capital expenditures budget by $1 billion in the U.S.

"Congress, working closely with the President, took a monumental step to bring taxes paid by U.S. businesses in line with the rest of the industrialized world," CEO Randall Stephenson said in a statement. "This tax reform will drive economic growth and create good-paying jobs. In fact, we will increase our U.S. investment and pay a special bonus to our U.S. employees."

AT&T had previously said it would invest $1 billion in the U.S. if "competitive" tax reform legislation was passed, and has said that tax reform framework could increase demand for AT&T's services.

Wish we were closer to the 2018 elections.

And Schumer and Pelosi should just shut their mouths. They sound like idiots.

“...They sound like idiots.....”

Ah...well...they ARE idiots. And it’s the result of the insanity brought on by liberalism.
A lib should not be allowed anywhere near the “levers of power” of any government. They’re certifiably insane.

Good news for sure. Christmas will be Merry. I would LOVE to be a fly on the wall of the room where Nancy Pelosi is now in grief.

Considering everybody already died following the defeat of “net neutrality,” I don’t know what the DIMS are so upset about.

Liberals’ biggest fear is that people will realize that the DemocRats aren’t there to help anyone but themselves.

Yep. Tiny Tim was saved by a rich private citizen. Not Parliament.

“They aren’t idiot’s, they are hanging on with everything they have to their little gravy train. Yes. they aren’t idiots, they are talking to the idiot’s that still believe what they have to say”.

You are exactly right. They rely on their Useful Idiots to

believe their tripe. Progressives/Liberals can never speak

the truth about their agenda because it would be rejected.

So they must rely on lies and deception and hope that the

dumbing down of America has worked.

And their nightmare will really come to life next February when people start seeing less money withheld from their paychecks, and the thirteen percent who now think they’ll be helped by the bill become the eighty percent who are actually going to benefit......
