McConnell Blesses Centrist Dems’ Attempt To Blow Up Two-Track Infrastructure Plan
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) cheered the attempt by some moderate Democrats in the House to decouple the two infrastructure bills, threatening the future of the Democrats’ sweeping reconciliation package.
“I wish the moderates in the House success,” McConnell said on Fox News Tuesday morning. “They want to split the infrastructure bill away from this massive $3.5-to-5 trillion reckless tax and spending bill, and deal with the two separately.”
You have to wonder what “moderation” and “centrist” means to GOP appeasers and fucking idiots like Rep. Josh Gottheimer (D-N.J.), Carolyn Bourdeaux (D-Ga.), Filemon Vela (D-Texas), Jared Golden (D-Maine), Henry Cueller (D-Texas), Vicente Gonzales (D-Texas), Ed Case (D-Hawaii), Jim Costa (D-Calif.), and Kurt Schrader (D-Ore.) Chris Coons (D-DE)
Events overtook the story of the “centrists” and Pelosi passed the infrastructure bill along party lines.
On to the senate where Coons and the super secret bipartisan caucus can swing into inaction.
These fake Democrats are being funded by the usual suspects, starting with the odious Chamber of Commerce.

“Reckless tax and spending” describes congress as a whole, they have no intention of paying for anything and they all know there’s a strong chance they’ll be out of office by the time the excrement hits the fan. Of all the many gifts of the Reagan era perhaps the worst is when the politicians realized they could run astounding deficits and not be held accountable.
Deficits don’t matter. China’s deficit spending dwarfs ours. It’s what you spend it on that matters. The public coffers get very little return on that trillion-dollar-a-year investment we make in defense spending. They will get a great return on the infrastructure bill, which is why the Republicans don’t want it.
off topic, but am i the only one pissed off Delaware is hosting Firefly in a month?

Everybody wants money for nothin’. BTW, the guy should not at all be embarrassed by that iconic photo. After all, to quote Seinfeld:
“Shrinkage”.
Wouldnt the law suit be against his parents? I know you go for the money, but the baby cant give consent, the parents did and this would be where the suit should be so i am sure itll be tossed against nirvana. but considering the way dave grohl is he’ll probably slide the guy some money even though the suit is baseless
Imagine having your peak moment at about 1 year old and trying to milk it the rest of your life.
The richest Americans mostly peaked at minute 1 of day 1.
Trump in a 20-way tie for 339th. Would enjoy having him back on Twitter for a day.
339th? In his dreams.
In other news, the world continues to move forward with same sex marriage being approved in the Yucatan. The Yucatan is a very conservative state, which is why this is news.

I read that as “same sex marriage being approved in the Vatican.” Need reading glasses.
