IN OTHER WORDS, THEY ARE GOING F THE PEOPLE AND THE COUNTRY UP SOME MORE!
Senate Republicans Get Democrats on Record on CRT, Immigration, Abortion, and More
Theodore Roosevelt once said it’s easy for good men to stay at home and read the paper, and ridicule the misdeeds of others. Evil men count on it, he added. Roosevelt understood a tenet of good government — never sit back and watch because you believe the fight is lost.
In the early hours of Wednesday morning, August 11, Senate Democrats began initiating the reconciliation process to pass their dreamy $3.5 trillion plan to overhaul social initiatives, expand child care and Medicare, provide free college, allow illegal immigrants citizenship, and introduce a down payment on the Green New Deal climate initiatives.
In the words of Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY), the Democrats are preparing to “bring a generational transformation to how our economy works.” Surprise! That’s been the Democrat’s plan since Barack Obama was elected in 2008. However, Republicans aren’t going down without a fight — despite the fact they can’t stop the Democrats if they are united. Fortunately, they aren’t. During a 14-hour vote-a-Rama (part of the process of opening reconciliation), the GOP got numerous Democrats on record regarding Critical Race Theory (CRT), fossil fuels, abortion, immigration, and more.
