Pelosi, Centrist Democrats in Standoff With Key Vote Ahead
« on: August 22, 2021, 11:03:44 pm »
Wall Street Journal by Kristina Peterson 8/22/2021

Centrist House Democrats were locked in a weekend standoff with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D., Calif.) over when to vote on a roughly $1 trillion infrastructure bill, imperiling the chamber’s ability to advance a sweeping segment of President Biden’s agenda in votes expected early this week.

A group of nine centrist Democrats has been at an impasse with Mrs. Pelosi and liberal Democrats for more than a week over a strategy to tie together the infrastructure bill, already passed with bipartisan support in the Senate, and Mr. Biden’s $3.5 trillion package of healthcare, education and climate provisions currently being crafted. That bill is expected to rely on just Democratic support under a process tied to the budget. To unlock that process, Mrs. Pelosi needs nearly all of her caucus on board for a procedural step planned for this week in the House.

“Any delay to passing the budget resolution threatens the timetable for delivering the historic progress and the transformative vision that Democrats share,” Mrs. Pelosi warned in a letter to House Democrats Saturday night.

Democrats historic changes for our nation:
Last year cities burned,
Then jan 6th phony insurrection to militarize DC
Then co-vid move to suspend our Constitutional rights and everyday rights, even to assemble.
Now heavily supporting our enemies in a war zone, betraying our own people and our allies and there people and then our Afghani allies. and now more betrayals in the works.  When will people playing their fools end ?

The Taliban wants to use their white flag for Afghanistan, and Wrecking Ball Joe just wants to use a white flag.  When I heard him mention giving aid to the Taliban, I was roflmao in disbelief.  Anyone that lost a son or daughter in that sh*thole of a country should want Biden's head on a stake!!!

All this came about because so many bought the election fraud lies, swearing everything was going to better than Trump running things.  Happy now useful fools?  Bidens looking to recruit more of that same type of fools, now!
 :smokin: :smokin: :smokin:

THEY WERE SO VOCAL, AND NOT LONG AGO, AND NOW SO SILENT!  SEEMS THEY'VE MOVED ON TO OTHER LIES/ASSERTIONS TO TELL.  Useful fools do so love 'em.  Every lie, every time.
