talked about Pelosi’s real motivations for shooting down the relief package and having Democrats come up with one of their own last night. If you hadn’t already come to the same conclusion yourself, it will seem immediately obvious when you read it. This is the old rule about never letting a perfectly good crisis go to waste. And when you know that virtually the entire mainstream media will provide cover for you, what have you got to lose? .... The best example would be James Clyburn, who,
as we recently learned, came right out and described the coronavirus pandemic as, “
a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision.” The gall of these people defies description.
Fox News provided a partial list and it’s jaw-dropping.
The bill proposed by Pelosi, D-Calif., additionally seeks to eliminate debt held by the U.S. Postal Service, require same-day voter registration, pay off $10,000 in student debt per person, mandate that airlines reduce their overall carbon emissions by 50 percent by 2050, and force federal agencies to explain to Congress how they are increasing their usage of “minority banks.”
And, the legislation would provide for the automatic extension of non-immigrant visas and restrict colleges from providing information about citizenship status
“People are dying and all Nancy Pelosi and Democrats can focus on is ripping off the American taxpayer to help pay for their liberal wish list of government handouts,” National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) spokesman Michael McAdams said in a statement.
Comment:
Indeed, those sycophants of the Progressive Marxist Socialist/DSA viewing the special interest wish list Bill that Pelosi and her gang in Congress have attempted push on the American people at a time of crisis. Here's the PMS/DSA Democrat laundry list of non-essential items in the expanded 1400 page proposed Congressional Covid relief Bill:
• Grants for audits of elections
• Elimination of postal service debt
• Reporting of corporate board member diversity by race and gender
• Corporate pay statistics by race
• Requirement for early voting
• Federal $15 minimum wage
• Permanent paid leave
• Forgiving $10,000 in student loans for every borrower.
• $300 million for the National Endowment for the Arts
• $300 million for the National Endowment for the Humanities
• $300 million for the Corporation for Public Broadcasting
• $500 million for the Institute of Museum and Library Services
• Prohibition on requiring any form of identification as a condition of obtaining the absentee ballot
• Increased collective bargaining powers for federal employee unions
• Automatic extension of non-immigrant visas
• Increased fuel emissions standards for airlines
• Reporting on release of greenhouse gases from airline flights
• Expansion of wind and solar tax credits
Ridiculous? Certainly! Criminal at a time like this? Surely!
This action is no different than a grocer raising his price by 10x because of the crisis and the voting citizens of America should be raising their voices against these actions that in my view verge on the criminal. PMS/DSA Democrat Leftists believe they have America over a barrel and can run rough shod over the government and the people at the same time.
Since the Executive order shutting down flights from China all PMS/DSA Democrat Leftist have done is to spread fear mongering panic and whine about the efforts of DJT and this administration to slow the spread of Wuhan Covid-19 so that supplies, emergency equipment could be distributed and methods to deal with crisis could be formulated.
