God has a plan for Federal Workers! Says under fire GOP

Watch out when liberals use the name of the Almighty in a political rant. A liberal U.K. media outlet picked an out of context comment from republican congressman and turned it into a anti-Christian political rant and the American left eats it up because it's what they wanted to hear.
 
Just to be clear, you are good cutting help for the poor to lower taxes for the wealthy?
What Im good with is this. We have 5.1 trillion dollars to play with. Subtract the 1 trillion dollars to service the debt (interest) and spend it how ever the fuck you want, but when the money runs out we don't get to spend any more. Our budget is almost twice that of any other country on the planet. We don't have a revenue problem we have a spending one.

Just so we are talking about the same thing. Who are the "wealthy"? What's the cut off?

The top 1% make 26% of the income and pay 46% of the taxes. What percentage should they pay? What's "fair"?

The top 5% make 42% and pay 65%.

The bottom 50% pay less than 3% of the taxes.

In 2018 (6 years ago) the Federal budget was 4.1 trillion dollars. Has the cost of running the Government really increased 60% since then?

If you go back and look at our spending, you'll notice something. It never, ever contracts. 2002 after 9/11 we greatly increased the budget because of the national emergency, it never went back. 2008 we greatly increased the budget because of a national emergency, it never went back, 2019 we greatly (insanely) increased the budget because of a national emergency, and you guessed it, it never went down. Do we still need COVID era spending?


I'll say this again because it's worth repeating and apparently some people cant get it through their heads.

We don't have a revenue problem we have a spending problem.
 
Red States are up in arms about the indiscriminate firing of federal workers and the GOP response: "God has a plan for you!". You cant make this shit up.

Just some of the states these townhalls have erupted into shouting matches between the GOP and its constituents are:

Alaska, Georgia, Idaho, Texas, Oklahoma, Oregon, Wisconsin


Another Republican congressman has provoked fury from fired federal workers by telling them that "God has a plan" for their lives.
angry shouts of opposition from a crowd as he tried to defend Donald Trump sweeping government cutbacks.

It was the latest in a series of riotous town halls in red districts across the U.S. where voters expressed their frustration about Trump's policies, as well as the influence of Elon Musk.

"Just because you have a government job, doesn’t mean it’s a lifetime appointment like a Supreme Court," Alford scolded his constituents on the outskirts of Kansas City, according to the local St. Joseph News-Press.

"So I would encourage anyone who finds themselves in this situation to realize that we are going to get this economy turning again. There are jobs available. God has a plan and purpose for your life."

Yawn. I paid more in taxes last year than just about anyone (top 0.5%). Cutting my taxes by $17k because you feel sorry for me sounds amazing. I cant wait.

You are not addressing the problem.


BTW you are free to cut the IRS a check for whatever amount you think is right. They will be happy to cash it. Let us know when you do so.

The tax bill on the table isnt to cut expenses to reduce the deficit. It is to reduce the expenses so the wealthy can pay less in taxes. That helps no one but the rich and costs the poor services. Its a bullshit plan.
 
Cry for who? The ones Trump put out of work or the ones Biden put back to work?

View attachment 1083234
Thousands of men and women lost jobs the first month Biden was in office slashing at the fossil fuel industry... when gas prices would not come down he tried to restart it but it was too late and oil companies didn't trust him....
I can't believe how many libs here do not know this... you guys really should be angry at your media....
 
Executive agency Dept Heads? And you think that's a good thing? This is the problem, these agencies think they run the Government.
They do run their part of the government, more than an unofficial dickhead making dick moves and trying to undercut the people who run the agency.

Only the paid protesters are making this noise. As soon as their government funding runs out we won’t have to hear from them again. I remember the government employees response to pipeline workers and coal miners losing their jobs was “learn to code”. Why can’t this advice apply to themselves?

Anyway, all of these people ranting away and claiming to be disgruntled republicans are just left wing agitators.

Executive agencies answer to? Say it with ms. The President. You may not like that but it’s the way it is. Your bitch is with Congress btw not the President. They abdicated their responsibilities to the executive via these agencies.

The president says to ignore the little Africano.
 
What if some guy that isnt your boss but paid for your bosses house tells you to do something that, not may be illegal and will expose working project data to foreign governments on unsecured email?
Do you really think the average maga is equipped to answer that ?
Leave them alone , sitting in the corner and scratching their arses.

Does the guy who paid for my boss’s house work for my boss? And tasked by my boss to audit my dept and ascertain who should or shouldn’t continue to work in said dept or if the dept should even exist? Is that the guy asking?
