Are We Seeing The Last Gasp Of The GOP’s Two Santa Clause Scam?

What does that have to do with the government's balance sheet? I get it that you don't want to pay taxes but this is not a philosophical discussion.

You libs act like my earnings are yours, and only allow me to keep a portion…that’s backwards.

You live in a country that taxes income. Find one that doesn't and move there.

Who said republican spending hasn’t been out of control? I sure didn’t….

But, I understand, you must defend your diaper wearing god….

I agreed with you on Biden. Do try and keep up.

 

[Smokin' OP]

Is that true right now? Do you see DeSantis winning in 2024 and then blowing a bunch of money? The only time republicans have ever spent a lot of money was for wars. Wars are always expensive.

Can anyone show me when republicans blew money on their own pet projects

DuhSantis is the winner.

Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on Monday approved the creation of a new stand-alone election police force designed to crack down on voter fraud in the nation’s third-largest state.

The Republican governor had proposed the creation of a special unit to tackle election crimes as he came under pressure from some Republicans to do a full-blown audit of the 2020 election even though former President Donald Trump had little trouble winning Florida.


Gov. Ron DeSantis on Thursday announced that the state is in the process of arresting 20 ex-felons — mostly in South Florida — for voter fraud tied to the 2020 election, the first round of what he promises will be a wave of voter fraud arrests.

Or so it seemed at the time. In October, a Miami judge tossed out a criminal case against a Floridian accused by DeSantis’ election fraud force. A month later, prosecutors in Tampa dropped the case against another defendant. This week, a judge threw out a third case.

In fairness, it’s worth emphasizing that the governor’s operation did accept a plea nearly two weeks ago from another one of the defendants, and a local prosecutor boasted soon after that his office was pleased to secure a “felony conviction on illegal voting.”

That was a charitable spin on what transpired: Tampa resident Romona Oliver pleaded no contest and received no punishment whatsoever: no jail time, no probation, and no financial penalties.


AND the dumbest thing a politician ever did to waste state taxpayer $$$.

Newly released documents shed even more light into the planning that went into sending a group of migrants to Martha’s Vineyard, and what could be still to come.

The migrants, mostly from Venezuela, were just some of the people put on planes in September and left in Massachusetts, all paid for by Florida taxpayers.

We’re now getting a look at just how much those flights cost and the planning that went into them.

The newly released documents show the private jet company that shuttled the migrants quoted the State of Florida more than $153,000 for two flights from San Antonio, Texas to Bedford, Massachusetts.

and wish list stuff like democrats? We arent constructing monuments to the second Amendment. We arent blowing billions on programs for "Christian values". We arent spending millions on a "Ronald Reagan trail". We are sending money overseas to study the target shooting techniques of people in Pakistan.

Nah, I’ll stay right here thanks….people like you have stolen enough that I can’t leave….As for you though, there are plenty of countries that boast all of the things in your ‘perfect utopia’ though, maybe you should go there.

 

[Seymour Flops]

To make it even easier for Republicans to cut taxes, Wanniski invented and publicized a new economic theory called Supply-Side Economics. When taxes went down, he said, government revenue would magically go up!

And sure enough, it did!

Who would have thought?

Anyone with the ability to perform a thought process called "dynamic reasoning."

 

[Godboy]

He asked for the spending, why does it matter who owned Congress when he was asking for record levels of spending?

Democrats voted for the spending. Why are you blaming Trump?

 

[Aldo Raine]

Democrats in Congress were in charge of spending. Dont blame Trump for your Congress..

Not tRump's 1st 2 years in office!

 

[Harpy Eagle]

Democrats voted for the spending. Why are you blaming Trump?

I blame both. You give your god a free pass because he belongs to your beloved party.

If your tax bill has impoverished you that's a problem with your bookkeeper. You've still done nothing to refute that tax cuts are spending.

Did tRump sign off on the budget or not?

The cost of those flights was BY FAR the best usage of money on the border crisis that we have ever spent. Before that, democrats refused to even acknowledge that we had a crisis, let alone do anything about it.

Not tRump's 1st 2 years in office!

That isnt when the big spending occured.

 

[Godboy]

HOw the hell was Trump supposed to stop dems in Congress from blowing money?

 

[basquebromance]

Godboy is buttboy of Trump, he's butthurt that Trump is being rightly blamed for the debt

 

[Godboy]

Did tRump sign off on the budget or not?

He signed what he could get from dems.

 

[Aldo Raine]

That isnt when the big spending occured.

Why did spendthrift tRump sign off on those massive budgets? Doesn't that make him complicit?

 

[Aldo Raine]

He signed what he could get from dems.

So you are saying tRump is a pussy that could NOT fight for what he believed is right. Strange how he didn't even do that when the Rethugikkkons were in charge of everything and still running up $1,000,000,000,000 debts to add to the deficit!

 

[Godboy]

Why did spendthrift tRump sign off on those massive budgets? Doesn't that make him complicit?

Was a different budget offered by dems for him to sign?

 

[basquebromance]

"Trump is a pussy"

so are his fanboys here
