A disaster!

How many threads about this are you going to post on crying like a b.tch?

There was a supermajority that would have overridden him easily so he did the best he could.

You’re definitely petty, so your names fits.

But who are you??

I’ve never seen your name before in 15 years.

Did you come here to cry or to secretly celebrate?

Any constructive input, like fighting this coup every step of the way?

Going to rallies, donating to defense, doing what Trump asks of us in this last month and beyond?

I doubt it.

An in so doing impounded the pork using a little known 1974 law. Just wanted to get that in here before agenda-pushing freepers flocked here to crap on Trump.

[albie]

This hand wringing, end of the world crap has got to stop.

I’ve given money until it hurts, called congressman and senators until blue in the face and get precise, up to date info from War Room. War Room keeps me sane.

Posting an article that’s been posted 100 x’s already doesn’t accomplish jack sh&& unless you have something to add other than “A disaster”.

When I see Freepers whom I am not familiar with , always check out the post history. Regardless, I saw the same defeatist, limp-wrist clowns back in 2008 when obamatard cheated, I mean won.

The same “America is doomed” or “I will never see the same America in my lifetime again” nonsense. AND the same idiots who started crying on FR when obamacare passed. I was the only in the forums who STATED I wont pay it, and never did in the entire 8 obamatard regime.

No IRS letter nor jackboot visiting my office. All this crying for nothing.

After Promises from House and Senate, President Trump Signs COVID-19 Relief and Omnibus Spending Bill

Posted on December 27, 2020 by Sundance

Sunday night President Trump signs HR 133 the $900 billion COVID-19 relief bill and Omnibus spending bill to fund government through September 2021.

According to released press reports, President Trump is signing the bill with rescission requests demanding that portions of the bill be struck from final implementation by the Senate. The President is redlining the bill and providing line-by-line instructions to congress on the provisions within the bill that need to be modified and removed.

The signing of the bill carries a statement from President Trump: ““As President, I have told Congress that I want far less wasteful spending and more money going to the American people in the form of $2,000 checks per adult and $600 per child.”

The statement continues: “The senate will start the process for a vote that will increase checks to $2,000, repeals Section 230, and starts and investigation into voter fraud.”

Will the House and Senate support the rescission requests? 

You decide….

The bill, containing all the pork, already carried a large veto-proof majority by those in the House and Senate who loaded it up with their special interest spending.  I doubt a veto-proof bill will be modified by congress.

However, that veto-proof majority also made any veto effort by President Trump moot… so, considering the structure, the best he could do would be to take the rescission route and make the request.

That 1974 law does no such thing. I am continuously amazed this year at that complete gullibility of some forum-goers here.

Convince me that we are not a corrupt kleptocracy sustained by trillions of dollars debt placed on the backs of the taxpayers.

by the way, our total indebtedness (national debt plus unfunded liabilities) presently stands at $183 trillion! And we’re still spending like there’s no tomorrow.

Will the House and Senate support the rescission requests?

If you have to ask you already know the answer. They will ignore it.

I too have given money till it hurts but that ended in 2020, not giving a penny to these crooks anymore..The Political situation in this nation is in fact End of the World..Clearly God has given this nation over to its vices...And turned his back on the Nation till it repeats which I do not see happening.

I know you think you never paid for “Obamacare. “ But you did. Everyone in America continues to do so, in forms you never dreamed of or even heard of. Medicare recipients continue to pay a PENALTY if they don’t buy Medicare part D drug coverage. Your tax dollars continue to subsidize insurance companies who cover low-income working people who can’t get employer insurance. You may never have had a visit from the IRS, but you have paid the IRS plenty for items required by Obamacare provisions. And your own health insurance premiums, if you buy health insurance, through your employer or otherwise, have skyrocketed in response to “Obamacare.” Just because Trump removed the individual mandate to purchase health insurance, does not mean the fallout is gone. And don’t forget how Pelosi handwrote in pencil in the margins of the Obamacare bill, a $30 million dollar tax break for her husband’s company, a Dole pineapple affiliate. So yes, you, and all of us, have been screwed, time and time and time again, by Obamacare, and by every other Omnibus Spending Bill this horrifying governmental creature, Congress, passes.

I agree. Many of the Trump psychophants are every bit as ridiculous and embarrassing as the Obama boot-lickers.

Trump is isolated and is under a lot of pressure and he sliced this one into the deep rough on the 18th hole. I am not going to chastise him too much.
