Ain’t that the truth?

The New York Times
TUCSON, Ariz., Jan. 14, 1967 President Johnson’s estimate of a $1.8-billion deficit for the fiscal year 1967 is “utterly ridiculous,” former Senator Barry Goldwater....

The GOP could have passed a 30-day CFR with dep cuts, but the MTG/Gaetz crowd scuttled that.

A question...who’s worse, Republicans that helped passed this or us for not disemboweling every RINO since the ‘86 amnesty?

Congress last passed a budget in 1996. We have been operating on continuing resolution’s for decades now. And in 2009 under Obama (IIRC), the amount for the CR was increased by a large amount and has never been reduced.

They do the CR allowing funding for a few weeks, promising to deal with the issue of spending cuts in them meantime. No one mentions it again until the “emergency” arrives once again and then every government department is given a 10% increase and the spending and debt does nothing but increase.

But, let’s kick that rusty can down the pot-holed filled path once again.

No, McCarthy could have done regular order and bill by bill like he promised. EVERY time it is the same thing!

Does this mean the 16 billion federal disaster funds in the 45 day bill can be diverted as Ukraine aid by the cabal that run Bidens barely breathing corpse?

126 RINO pussies are actually Democrats. All of them need to be cleansed from the GOP, beginning with Kevin McCarthy.

Kevin McCarthy knew that if he went ahead with the shutdown, mainstream media had the sob stories prepared and that its all the evil Republicans’ fault.

The GOOBers went full Shickenchit again. I’d like to find the one that found my email and phone number (text messaging) and gave it to every one of those idiots. I block them all day long and it doesn’t do any good. I think half of them are thieving RATS trying to steal money from me.

The reality that no one here will admit, is that America is dead.
Demographics is destiny.
Each election cycle is just tinier and tinier scraps to plead for.
We will become North Brazil.
Thank the 19th Amendment.

Not yet, but I’m coming around on the 19th. We would win EVERY Election in America, EVEN with the cheating.
