Nancy Pulosi Calls for Vote on PayGo,
Socialists Outraged
by Rusty
{thepoliticalinsider.com} ~ Presumptive House Speaker Nancy Pulosi and Democrat Party leadership are calling for a vote on a House rules package... that will include a pay-as-you-go provision, PayGo, requiring new spending to be offset either by budget cuts or tax increases. The inclusion of this common sense rule has prompted the more radical wing of the party to express outrage, as well as an accidental admission that their far-left programs cannot be paid for.The issue becomes the first battle between party leadership and the socialist wing of the party, as Representatives Ro Khanna of California and commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York have vowed to oppose Pulosi by voting ‘no.’“It is terrible economics,” Khanna explained on social media, while commie-Ocasio-Cortez denounced PayGo as “a dark political maneuver designed to hamstring progress.”... https://thepoliticalinsider.com/nancy-pelosi-paygo-ocasio-cortez/?utm_campaign=TPI_breaking_newsletter_1_2_2019&utm_source=criticalimpact&utm_medium=email&utm_content=4b4ea4948726422aa6473c7b9fa19141&source=CI.

THE WORST ENEMY OF BLACK PEOPLE
by WALTER WILLIAMS
{wnd.com} ~ Malcolm X was a Muslim minister and human-rights activist. Born in 1925, he met his death at the hands of an assassin in 1965. Malcolm X was a courageous advocate for black civil rights... but unlike Martin Luther King, he was not that forgiving of whites for their crimes against black Americans. He did not eschew violence as a tool to achieve civil and human rights. His black and white detractors accused him of preaching racism and violence. Despite the controversy, he has been called one of the greatest and most influential black Americans. Many black Americans have great respect for Malcolm X. Many schools bear his name, and many streets have been renamed in honor of him, both at home and abroad. But while black Americans honor Malcolm X, one of his basic teachings goes largely ignored. I think it’s an important lesson, so I will quote a large part of it. Malcolm X said: “The worst enemy that the Negro have is this white man that runs around here drooling at the mouth professing to love Negros and calling himself a liberal, and it is following these white liberals that has perpetuated problems that Negros have. If the Negro wasn’t taken, tricked or deceived by the white liberal, then Negros would get together and solve our own problems. I only cite these things to show you that in America, the history of the white liberal has been nothing but a series of trickery designed to make Negros think that the white liberal was going to solve our problems. Our problems will never be solved by the white man.” There’s a historical tidbit that those much younger than I (almost 83 years old) are ignorant of. In black history, we have been called – and called ourselves – several different names. Among the more respectable have been “colored,” “Negro,” “black,” “Afro-American” and “African-American.” I recall when Mrs. Viola Meekins, when I was a student at Stoddart-Fleisher Junior High School in the late 1940s, had our class go page by page through a textbook and correct each instance in which Negro was printed with a lowercase “n.” In Malcolm X’s day, and mine, Negro was a proud name and not used derisively by blacks as it is today...
The Transitioning Agenda of the 116th Congressby Thomas Gallatin: As that old adage states, elections have consequences. Those consequences will begin to be felt today as the 116th Congress is seated amidst a partial government shutdown. The most significant change is in the House, where Rep. Nancy Pulosi (D-CA) will take over as speaker for the second time as Democrats reclaim the majority. Meanwhile, in the Senate, Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) will preside over a Republican majority that grew two seats stronger, with newer members more likely to support President Donald Trump’s agenda. Oh, the clashes we’ll see.
So what’s on the agenda for Pulosi and House Democrats? To put it succinctly, two things: pushing socialism and destroying Trump.
Prior to the midterm elections, Pulosi sought to tamp down impeachment talk, calculating that it wouldn’t play well with voters. But since securing the House majority, she has changed her tune, now signaling that impeachment is indeed on the table. Thursday Pulosi cryptically stated, “We shouldn’t be impeaching for a political reason, and we shouldn’t avoid impeachment for a political reason.” Impeachment or not, Pulosi’s agenda is clear: Do everything possible to prevent Trump from winning reelection in 2020. Hence the shutdown.
As the partial government shutdown nears two full weeks, Pulosi and the Democrats have stubbornly refused to offer any true compromise spending proposal by steadfastly rejecting any deal that provides funds for construction of a border wall. While the $5 billion Trump demanded for a wall is mere pittance when compared to the overall budget, the Democrats’ refusal is purely a political play. Pulosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck scumbag/clown-Schumer (D-NY) will do everything in their power to prevent Trump from following through on his biggest campaign promise. For Democrats, this fight over the border is a calculated effort to severely damage Trump’s 2020 reelection bid. They can’t let Trump get a win on his signature campaign issue. They couldn’t care less about strengthening our nation’s border security and protecting Americans.
Thus, for the foreseeable future, Americans have a lot more political gridlock to look forward to, as coming to any legislative compromises will be tough sledding. Indeed, it’s foreboding that the transition to the 116th Congress comes in the midst of a shutdown. If Democrats were bad over the last two years, how much worse will they be with a House majority? ~The Patriot Post
