Patriot,
Yesterday, House Speaker Mike Johnson's pathetic bit of
congressional kabuki theater came to an embarrassing end, with
more than a dozen Republicans refusing to support his spending
bill which would have, as usual, cut nothing whatsoever in
government spending.
Johnson thought putting in something called the SAVE Act - a
supposed election integrity bill that would have been rejected in
the Senate and wouldn't have applied in time for this election in
any event - was going to be enough to get the bill over the
finish line.
But a small group of budget conscious Republicans saw right
through the trick play.
As Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) said days ago, this stunt was "a
total bait and switch on the part of Republican (uniparty)
leadership in the House. Mike Johnson already has a plan to cave,
leaving us with a bill that doesn't cut one penny of spending."
It was all an act, and everyone knew it.
But now, Johnson is lamenting he has to go "back to the drawing
board" on the spending bill, even though he knew his first plan
was a no-go from the get-go, and he knew about the September 30
deadline because that's the deadline every year, yet Johnson
still waited until the end to create an emergency!
Now that they've played their little game, it's time they get
serious about spending.
Tell your congressman right now: CUT THE SPENDING!

Patriot, our national debt is so out of control that interest
payments are now the highest expense in the federal budget. It's
doubled in the last two-and-a-half years.
This really is an emergency! But not the emergency Mike Johnson
is talking about.
Our nation is driving off a financial cliff, and Speaker Johnson,
most House Republicans, and virtually all House Democrats are
hitting the gas pedal!
This is outrageous, and our lawmakers - whether they're
Republicans or Democrats - need to know this is unacceptable.
The spending bill fully funded everything Republicans claim they
oppose, from the politicized, weaponized Department of Justice to
foreign aid.
Contact your representative right now. Tell him or her to stop
playing games and reduce government spending NOW.
The Republicans are giving the same old song and dance, once
again. It's time to grow a spine and oppose the reckless
spending.
