The Politics of Professional Procrastination…
The Conservative Tree House ^ | June 21, 2017 | Sundance

Posted on 06/21/2017 2:14:35 PM PDT by HarleyLady27

Making America Great Again continues to run up against the reality of DC UniParty roadblocks. Both Democrats and Republicans are procrastinating while hoping for any excuse not to participate in America-First policy advancement.

The election result in Georgia’s sixth district is yet another example of Trump supporters removing excuses the DC UniParty puts forth; yet the DC apparatus is so entrenched in their opposition to President Trump’s policy agenda, they sit idle spinning various congressional hearings-to-nowhere in an increasingly transparent effort to avoid action.

Senator Mike Lee works to block taxation on imports by removing the tariff authority of President Donald Trump. This aids his multinational sponsors on Wall Street. Senator Lee trying to stop Trump from leveling taxes on imports, under the false auspices of constitutional authority. [Made irrelevant by the 1913 passage of the 17th amendment]

♦ Speaker Paul Ryan works to block taxation on imports by manipulating import taxation into a larger “comprehensive corporate tax bill“, and establishing the loopholes, constructed by the same multinational sponsors. Wall Street then utilizes these constructs to avoid the payment of import taxes. Watch closely:

(Via Wall Street Journal) The measure, known as border adjustment, would tax imports and exempt exports as part of a broader plan to encourage companies to locate jobs and production in the U.S. But Mr. Trump, in his first comments on the subject, called it “too complicated.” –link–

Mike Lee represents the Senate approach. Speaker Ryan represents the House approach.

However, both approaches are geared toward the same benefactors. Those benefactors are the lobbyists who pay Republicans for legislative priorities. Who is that…. Tom Donohue.

For those who don’t know, it is special interest groups, lawyers as lobbyists like the U.S. CoC, who actually write the legislation. Politicians vote on legislation, they don’t actually put pen to paper and write it – that’s what the congressional lobbyists do.

“Making America Great Again continues to run up against the reality of DC UniParty roadblocks.”

Didn’t they put cow catchers on the front of trains to take care of this problem?

Yep. I do not always agree with him, but I trust his research and acumen more than any talking head.

MEMO to your Representative and Senators:

When was the last time you actually wrote a significant portion of a bill that became law?


Sundance has it nailed. Lobbyists have way too much input into bills. And we suffer for it.

At last, the media takes note that we deplorables are long “on” to the R’s, in the House and the Senate.

There silence to defend the president betrays their intentions to let Trump fend for himself off the Hill, while they slow walk his agenda on the Hill, inevitably leaving him twisting in the wind, isolating him and freezing his presidency.

The people are his support and we have together have been at their mercy. Now, I pray, these R’s are soon at our mercy.
