I don’t get it, I really, really don’t get it. You had Republicans negotiating the so-called infrastructure bill, which gives Republicans virtually nothing and gives Democrats lots of their wish list, like all the climate scam garbage, green this and green that, electric cars, trains, etc and so on. You’ve seen the crazy. Yet
Schumer: ‘We have come to an agreement’ on infrastructure bill, vote expected Tuesday
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., said the Senate has “come to an agreement” on the infrastructure bill after months of deadlock.
“In a few minutes, I will announce that we have come to an agreement for final passage of the bipartisan infrastructure proposal,” Schumer said on the Senate floor on Monday night. “This will do a whole lot of good for America.”
Schumer laid out two tracks for the infrastructure bill: “One dealing with traditional infrastructure,” the bipartisan package some Republicans are likely to support; and “one dealing with climate and the problems American families face,” a more partisan Democratic measure.
There are apparently enough idiot Republicans to vote for this piece of garbage, which will be remembered come election time, and have Republicans sitting out in 2022. Especially since they all have to know they are being played. Schumer said so
Senate Poised to Pass Infrastructure Deal, Then Turn to Democratic Budget
The Senate is expected on Tuesday to pass a $1 trillion bipartisan infrastructure package, capping off weeks of intense negotiations and debate over the largest federal investment in the nation’s aging public works system in more than a decade.
The legislation, which still must pass the House, would touch nearly every facet of the American economy and fortify the nation’s response to the warming of the planet.
Sounds great, right, the people who cannot work on a budget, overspend on most things, probably couldn’t account for the money they spend, and want control of the economy want to pass something that touches on nearly every facet of the American economy
But as soon as the bill clears the Senate, Democrats are expected to take up a $3.5 trillion budget blueprint that will unlock their ability to muscle through an expansive social policy package over unanimous Republican objections.
Under the fast-track budget reconciliation process, that blueprint, if passed with a simple majority, will dictate the parameters of a transformative package expected to provide funding for health care, climate change, education and child care, and to increase taxes on wealthy people and corporations.
Democrats are simply going to use the $1 trillion infrastructure bill as a means to pass the unhinged, Progressive, wish list $3.5 trillion bill (universal pre-K, amnesty and support of illegals/migrants, more taxes, free community college, and so much more). Republicans are literally helping the Progressive party (nice Fascism) pass their agenda.
Never mind that it is the poor and middle class (and their descendants) who will be paying the $3.5T.
#Inflation… Pfft
#TrustUs
Bwaha! Lolgf
GOPhers always become fiscal conservatives when a Democrat is elected President.
Does Teach think that $3.5T is an outrageous budget? Spending in 2020 was an estimated $3.8T.
