McCain Library Built With $83M in COVID ‘Public Health Emergency’ Money
Was there a quid pro quo in the McCain family backing Biden?

October 5, 2023 by Daniel Greenfield

Biden paid a visit to Arizona to claim that everyone who opposes him is a threat to democracy, to brag about encouraging former Senator McCain to cheat on his disabled first wife, and to announce $83 million in taxpayer money for the John McCain National Library.

The 80,000-square-foot library built on 22.5 acres at Arizona State Universe will archive McCain’s papers and claims, implausibly, that it will have over 100,000 visitors a year.

Politicians stealing taxpayer money to build useless monuments to each other’s vanity is nothing new, but what is unusual is the source of the money for the McCain library.

The Biden administration put out a press release announcing that the $83 million in federal funds for the McCain Library were being drawn from the American Rescue Plan’s Capital Projects Fund. The full name of the fund is actually the Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund.

The Coronavirus Capital Projects Fund consisted of $10 billion that was supposed to “directly support recovery from the COVID-19 public health emergency” in response “to the public health emergency”. Now nearly 1% of that original $10 billion is being used to build a non-presidential library that will somehow help us “recover” from the pandemic.

Biden will be dishing out money from this fund over the next 14 months to win election.  And it will 100% be the Republicans' fault for not taking back this money when the debt ceiling expired.

"If you build it, they will come."

Well, at least the contractors will.

... to brag about encouraging former Senator McCain to cheat on his disabled first wife ...

1. While LIEden was already a US Senator when John McCain III returned from Vietnam, when in 1976 McCain started having affairs, he was commanding a training squadron in Florida. IF LIEden ever spoke to him about his marriage, the marriage was already toast.

2. This claim is really rich, coming from LIEden, who was cheating with Jill months before his wife was killed in a traffic accident.

 *****rollingeyes***** No, John McCain III did not caused the USS Forrestal fire. *****rollingeyes***** His A-4, like all the A-4s and F-4s that were spotted for the strike, was positioned aft along the deck edge. His exhaust was going out to sea, not onto the fuel spilling on the deck. *****rollingeyes***** That fuel was lit by the exhaust of the Zuni rocket that had caused the spill. It's time to drop this stupid, physically impossible, claim. *****rollingeyes*****

I despised John McCain III, but the truth is the truth. Instead, blame the USN and defense contractor company who had not fixed the known problem with the Zuni rocket and the DC-desk-navigating senior officer(s) who overrode the Captain of the USS Forrestal and commanded the use of bombs that were known to be old, deteriorated, and unstable.

Presidential libraries are already over the top ... now taxpayers will be mugged to build modern day pyramids, temples, and obelisks for US Senators?  That's a waste of taxpayer money.
