Senate Republicans are gearing up to punch their voters in the mouth again, this time by passing a massive omnibus bill that gives the farm away to the Left for essentially nothing in return.
This from redstate.com.
The reasoning behind the push is uncertain, unless, of course, it is for personal gain—personal gain at the expense of We the People and for those elected to constitutionally represent We the People.
Are we really to believe that these [
RepublicansRINOs] fear a short government shutdown so much that they are willing to concede the power of the purse their party fought so hard to win in November’s election?
Fat chance. This move is all about business as usual.
It’s a bunch of big-spending initiatives greasing the palms of a group of mostly outgoing Republican senators looking for one last payday. In other words, this omnibus package is everything that’s wrong with Washington, condensed into one 4,000+ page bill that they won’t read.
However, there are those appropriately representing We the People who are reading the bill. And their findings come as no surprise:
“[T]he contents are as much of a dumpster fire as you’d expect.”
After years of covering these ridiculous omnibus bills, I feel confident in saying this is the worst one yet, and two provisions bear that out perfectly.
For example, the Heritage Foundation found these appropriations showing that we have a new state religion, and it’s the LGBT movement.
💸 $1.2 million for “LGBTQIA+ Pride Centers”
💸 $1.2 million for "services for DACA recipients” (aka helping illegal aliens with taxpayer funds) at San Diego Community College.
💸 $477k for the Equity Institute in RI to indoctrinate teachers with “antiracism virtual labs.”— Heritage Foundation (@Heritage) December 20, 2022
💸 $750k for the for “LGBT and Gender Non-Conforming housing” in Albany, New York.
💸 $2 million for the “Great Blacks in Wax” museum in Baltimore.
💸 $856k for the “LGBT Center” in New York.— Heritage Foundation (@Heritage) December 20, 2022
We well know of the communist obsession with LGBT ideology. They’re seeking to inject it into every single corner of the public discourse to be a tool toward the demise of a healthy culture.
Sure enough, congress is now using taxpayer funds to prop up LGBT “centers” in major liberal cities.
What’s the justification for such a decision?
There isn’t one except to force religious people into supporting things they find morally objectionable.
They don’t just want your tolerance anymore. They want your money, and by virtue, your stamp of approval.
What is an LGBT “pride center” except a place to propagate a very specific dogma? That makes these appropriations no different than if the federal government started shelling out cash to build churches.
The far-left would lose its mind if that were the case, but they are all for taking your cash to hold drag queen story hours and “pride” events.
Meanwhile, Rep. Dan Bishop is also going through the omnibus package, and he found a passage related to border security that is just mind-numbing.
It expressly prohibits CBP funding from being used to improve border security. pic.twitter.com/g2F4o1zl2D

The communists have literally put a provision in the bill barring any funding from being used by the Border Patrol to better process illegal immigrants (i.e. more efficient deportations).
Think about that. [
RepublicansRINOs] are giving [communists] everything they want, and in return, they couldn’t even secure a basic concession like more funding for CBP to relieve its backlogs.
Could the GOP be any more worthless?
Oh, but Republicans got their golden calf, i.e. more military spending, and isn’t that all that really matters?
Never mind that the military is run by far-left ideologues who are actively seeking to punish conservative servicemembers with pointless mandates and diversity training.
[This bill will be] the worst betrayal since Biden if it passes.
