Why didn’t the GOP Congress members scream to O’Reilly and Hannity about this rip-off?

Simple: the GOP is not at all about what it says it is about — just look at their actions over the past decade.

  1. Where have they pushed for fiscal responsibility? We're $20T in debt
  2. Where have they pushed for limited government? There's a story posted today about the TSA wanting to go through reading materials.
  3. Where have they pushed for Justice / Rule of Law? I remember quite clearly Comey's guilty but no intent speech.
  4. Where have they pushed for government accountability? Just look at the above!
  5. Where have they treated the Constitution like it is actually binding law? Just look at the judges and courts allowed to retain their positions.
No, the GOP is not about what it claims it is, nor is it on your side.

Conservatives have long fought the policy introduced under the Obama administration. Earlier this year, Republican lawmakers introduced legislation that would prohibit the Department of Justice from requiring defendants to donate money to outside groups, after concerns that the settlements bypass congressional appropriations processes.

...

Winning and draining the swamp.

Why didn’t the media cry foul about what Obama was doing? Instead we hear about Trump getting two scoops of ice cream.

I want to see conservatives give them a taste of their own medicine before stopping the practice. DOJ fines paid out to the NRA, Operation Rescue, etc. THEN end the practice.

Good question. DO THIS ASAP---Demand the Millenial Challenge Corporation boos at the State Dept be opned. Demand a full review of this slush fund that Hilary and Obama used to loot taxpayers.

Call President Trump---- Comments: 202-456-1111 Switchboard: 202-456-1414

==============================================

TALKING POINTS The Obamas took govt looting and pillaging to a new level. They already got a coupla buck-raking foundations. And it's already funded big-time....by YOU the taxpayer.

Obama gave Mrs O $100 million tax dollars from the State Dept's Millennium Challenge Corporation (chaired by Hillary) on her recent visit to Morocco, to "teach Muslim girls". AND GET THIS---The 100 million tax dollars to teach Muslim girls are to be held by, and doled out by, the post-presidency tax-exempt Obama Foundation.

LOOK AT THAT SMILE Michele, her daughters and her mother in
Morocco's palace. 100 million dollars to spend after she moves out.

That entire family smiles more when they are out of the US - why can’t we all agree to keep it that way?
