There has been a great deal of political narrative engineering/fabrication surrounding President Trump’s admonitions to congress about a pork-filled COVID relief package. With a budgetary “shut-down” date looming on Monday, let’s look at the issues.
First, there’s no such thing as a federal government “shut-down”; the only thing that happens if with a budgetary date exceeded is “non essential” government employees told to stay home (reference the prior “sequestration” nonsense).
Second, the jaw-droppingly tone-deaf and pork-filled scheme of spending within the $900 billion COVID relief package is disconnected from the Omnibus spending bill ($1.5 trillion) that was combined into a single legislative construct for convenience only.
The Omnibus bill (non budget spending/allocation) and the COVID bill can be separated, because they are technically separate bills.
President Trump wants congress to re-write the $900 billion COVID bill to provide $2,000 per person instead of $600 per person. In essence Trump is asking for a stand alone COVID relief bill for $2k/person, then drop the $600/person payment out of the pork-laden COVID relief bill and start that economic relief bill over.
This is not a hard issue to resolve. The only reason UniParty congress is fighting Trump is because their lobbyist and foreign government bribes are part of the $900 billion and will not pass the scrutiny of public opinion if standing alone.
To try and conflate the issues Pelosi changed on part of the pork-laden COVID bill to $2k/person, without removing all the pork. The GOP voted against that scheme and the media are now claiming that loggerhead derails the omnibus part of the spending “package”. Again, Omnibus is separate from COVID relief. The obtuse arguments are conflated and false.
The Omnibus spending bill can be sent to POTUS without the COVID part included. The reason why McConnell and Pelosi want to keep them attached is because the combination makes a 5,500 page mess that hides the pork.
President Trump could veto (directly) or hold a pocket-veto (hold the bill) by doing nothing. The funding “runs out” (::cough-BS-cough::) on Monday.
Pelosi could: (a) counter with a short-term spending bill, or (b) let government shut down and then the media blame game begins…. or (c) separate Omnibus.
Pelosi/McConnell could easily separate Omnibus and then pass a stand alone COVID relief package at $2k/person without the pork. Of course this is against their interests.
It is a legislative game of chicken with President Trump. The bottom line comes down to political weaponization of the issues. President Trump could use his platform to hammer Pelosi/McConnell and likely win based on public opinion.
It looks to me like President Trump is waiting to see if the American people understand how the UniParty congress has set this up. If most Americans understand it, POTUS will likely go with the pocket-veto approach…
Bribes are what it’s all about, Sundance. Is our entire government riddled with corruption? I think so. The Trump presidency and the rise of the populist conservative insurgency have revealed things about the American body body politic that the institutionalized elites cannot allow to be exposed. You have to wonder what comes next?
You think so. We, the People, know so. The Uniparty needs to be reined in tout-de-suite!
I believe the entire fed system is riddled with corruption along with massive mission creep, irrelevance, redundancies, and excess growth or bloat.
Nearly every agency has grown over time during a period when need for their services has declined. The amounts of busywork/makework and paper pushing are hard to fathom. The agencies have all gone on hiring binges to increase duversity and related useless expensive fads.
The entire system needs an overhaul and downsizing with many duties pushed out to the states. The fed govt could easily be .25 its current size. Its all of them one can start w DOD and go from there.
This would be a Herculean task and citizens outsude the beltway would need to make a lot of noise.
I had to check the date on this post? Isn’t this why we hired Trump? He failed bigly.
I “hired” Trump to keep on telling the truth, however hard it may be. And he has been magnificent, past all expectations, while you have not in that comment…
Thumbs down on your remark, Mark. We the people have failed to fire the corrupt rats, snakes, and weasels who have been there for well over 20 years. And that’s not even counting election fraud. It’s an incredibly deep swamp; cannot be drained overnight.
Little Lindy thinks “We The People” have short memories!
Ahh no, did you notice the last election? Do you believe they care for your vote?
The only sin that gets a congressman exiled is going against the established globalists.
I loathe Lindsey Graham. Really, loathe the b@$t@rd.
At least as much as I loathe Mitch, the Turtle.
I suspect the reason South Carolina keeps sending him to the Senate is to get him out of their state.
SC is an “open primary” state, a disaster for conservatives. A wealthy RINO almost succeeded in doing that to FL this last election.
It’s an easy way for Dims to choose RINOs or general whores to go on the general election ballot.
If you are in an OP state, try to get it changed back. If you are in a “closed primary” state, guard it with your life.
Lindsey has long been corrupted by the big money donors who run the primaries.
L Graham is now a wealthy fellow who recently donated $500.000 to something. Not bad for a lil ole SC boy. Don’t think he’s a Harvard potato head either. Have another lasting fixture here also- Representative James Clyburn aka Nancy Pelosi’s lap dog.
Section 230 LOL. Facebook just spent 350 million to assist the election in battleground states. Nobody wants that kind of money working against them. Big tech owns Congress.
Actually the truth is that they like using the tiny techs to censor dissenting Americans and the real truth. They all use it, they all do it.
2 is all of them.
I think people need to look at this as a criminal would not as a moral individual.
This government is a criminal organization, you cannot enter unless you abide by that standard.
It’s not unfixable, but law enforcement has to do its job without favoritism.
It is no wonder we lost all militia groups. They were the citizens way to hold law enforcement to a standard of justice. Now they are all deemed white supremacists, infiltrated and jailed. Even though, they are occupied by all nationalities.
On the other hand, if you can’t distinguish the Insane Left’s hold on the media, to the exclusion of everyone else…
<i>Big tech owns Congress.</i>
Lock, stock, barrel and pigsty!
350 million? Pfft. That’s the average annual spend by facebook on congress. Google spends about $250 mil/yr on congress. No question the google & facebook ‘in kind’ contributions like hiding negative information on a candidate is in the $100’s of millions.
He’s an idiot.
So, is Lindsay Graham backing President Trump and the American people in the fight against the 2020 election fraud?
Why does Trump spend so much time with Panty Boy? Is Trump trying to talk him into standing against this fraud election?
I was wondering if Lindsay Graham has even promised his help and if not, WHY? We all saw Trump win and we all saw the fraud.
Please consider t-shirts, bumper stickers, hats with the Lion/elephant/donkey “because this isn’t working” image on them. I want one or will produce one myself if I can get permission.
Yessssssssss! I will buy one! Stickers too.
Why does he think SC wants him any more than the US wants Biden? Any time anyone tries to primary Graham the local GOP destroys them until we’re stuck with Graham again…
Graham loves to place himself in the limelight, always making the rounds on Sunday TV BS. He pretends to have President Trump’s ear so why is he not taking the lead in the Senate in objecting to the Electoral College votes. Because he’s a two=face!!
Many Republican’s in power are not backing President Trump but let’s start with Mitch McConnell and end with Mitch McConnell. He’s intimidating Senators into not objecting to the Electoral College votes – it might get messy says Mitch.
China Mitch is NOT worried about “messy” he wants President Trump out of office. He’s already congratulated Joe Biden, he’s all in for the Electoral College vote.
This is it for the GOP as a party IMHO. Trump has warned them, he will not forget. President Trump voters, the record millions should not forget. Every GOP Senator not objecting to those electoral votes should be voted out of office by a Trump Party candidate.
Sign nothing and let the Uniparty slowly wither on the vine (they won’t die, they’re too well dug in). In time, when a proper bill is presented sign it. Play hard ball with the Uniparty.
What is this “time” you speak of?
Yup, I would suggest everyone copy a send this article to all.
its hard to explain this to people who are just on the edge of understanding. I’ve tried, Sundance does so much better.
Oh and what’s laughable is, “we” control the narrative now, the truth narrative.
MSM mean nothing anymore!
Several folks suggested that we should have voted Mitch and Lindsey out. Those people were shouted down and attacked right here. They were told that “we” had to hold the Senate. Folks, there is no “we” anymore. Over the last 4 years, Potus’ biggest enemy was not Nancy, chuck or the Dems. It was/is Mitch McConnell. anyone who still defends these Republican bums is wither willfully blind or a Rolcon/RINO. The damage that this swamp scum has done to this country is incalculable. Mitch is not a conservative. Mitch is not a Republican. He is a traitor who collects cash from the highest bidder. He is also in a position to give cover to his Dem/uniparty buddies. Anyone who wants to claim that the Dems are worse than this POS is a fool. Mitch is on their team.
It would not surprise me ( or anyone now) that vote fraud was utilized to get these two POS’s re-elected.
I have said that all along Kracken, otherwise they would be helping PDT.
Yes! Agreed. All those who are not helping expose the 2020 election fraud did in fact get their very seats and positions from the same voter fraud that’s been going on for MANY YEARS.
It’s really the only logical explanation why they are so adamant about not exposing it.
Just another thing “they know” and “we don’t.” Mainly because our side is not wicked and devious so we don’t think that way. BUT IT’S TIME WE START *THINKING* THAT WAY SO WE’LL BE AHEAD OF THEIR GAME.
You better believe it, Kracken. I tell people all the time that Mitchy would not leave it up to the folksies in an election to leave him in office with all that power he enjoys. He hates us. I would bet that he’s as guilty in this election fraud, and any previous election, as anyone is. And that goes for his other Republican henchmen like TX Cornyn, too.
Unless we fix this fraud now, no election and no elected official can be considered legitimate. It will be all a scam from here on out. We are living through a Communist/ Uniparty coup.
And his first act of bribery against President Trump was Elaine’s appointment to the cabinet. The better to know what was going on at cabinet meetings my dear!
I would have loved to have voted Lindsey out. His primary opponent was a non factor and his general opponent, Jamie Harrison, a squad type lib.
I don’t even remember who ran against him this year… there was a Constitution party candidate that I didn’t know about until he dropped out… Bill something? Wish he’d tried to primary Graham.
Are you sure McConnell “won” his seat legitimately or did he have a little help from his friends at dominion? The rats are questioning his election as not making sense by the numbers. Let’s take a look at the election in Kentucky.
Zoe, common sense would tell me that Mitchy would not leave his election up to the folksies. He doesn’t trust us. He hates us. Common sense tells me that he is too power hungry to take a chance that he might lose his seat through a legitimate election. So, yeah, common sense tells me, he cheated. This time AND in the past. How far back is anyone’s guess.
Not one cent of any relief bill should ever leave our shores or go to any illegals.
We taxpayers should not be funding border protection for any country other then our own, Not one NGO or the global fund or any aids (Soros money laundering network) or the Ukrainian cookie jar or China or the U.N. Program should ever receive our tax dollars. To much of our money goes out of our country just to be paid back to politicians and someone needs to prove it.
I’ve had it up to my eyeballs with savvy Republicans explaining to me how all that money buys us influence in foreign countries.
Right. Those countries promptly use the money to contribute to “charitable foundations” owned by the politicians and lobbyists who designed the spending bills, circling that taxpayer blood and sweat back into the bottomless pockets of our DC feudal lords. Charity, after all, begins at home.
Sick of the international grift and money laundering. Let our influence be a big fat dangerous military and an American populace with plenty of money to spend, and give, where we choose, when we choose.
Its more than that. Their relative sets up corporations, LLCs, and partnerships doing business in these foreign countries. Ex: Politician’s brother will get a contract to build a school in Ukraine. The school costs $10 million to build. The company simply subcontracts the contract out to locals for $8 million perform the construction. The Brother’s company pockets the extra $2 million. Its a no bid contract. If it goes over budget, they simply chargeback the difference. Its a sweet scam. Its outside US laws and tax authorities. there is no oversight. And there are a maze of offshore accounts and corporations to launder things.
Like Joe Biden’s brother who landed a big housing construction contract in Iraq even though he has no experience at all in that business?
River,
Great points. I think this fact they have to “buy” influence says they in reality have none. Influence comes from leadership not cash.
“Let our influence be a big fat dangerous military and an American populace with plenty of money to spend, and give, where we choose, when we choose.”
Best idea I’ve seen in political ideology ever.
Especially when people like us work ourselves to the damn bone, work without healthcare ( both self employed ) work weekends and after hours, work when we are sick, work outside in horrible weather, work on call during holidays.
‘Then, pay 30,40,50% in hateful taxes that go to these vile representatives, their stupid porkulous bills and their own gold lined pockets.
‘Enough is enough. We are exhausted. Yes, we have a good work ethic , yes we try and save and teach our children to work and contribute to society. But these disgusting thieves in government, treating our hard earned wages as leverage and slush for personal gain and kickbacks, well, we have had enough !
It’s called “slavery”.
I view the foreign money as “boomerang cash.” The country is just used as the laundering location and the kickback returns to the politi-critters’ pockets. “10% to the big guy?” Heh, which big guy?
“boomerang cash”
I’m gonna have to steal that one.
“It looks to me like President Trump is waiting to see if the American people understand how the UniParty congress has set this up. If most Americans understand it,”
There would be millions more that would “see” it, if they were not being LIED TO by the Main Sewer Media on a daily basis.
If you saw the “Man in America” Video, you can bet millions upon millions did.
People are desperate for truth and the CTH provides that truth so, send this far and wide.
Who created that?
Seth Holehouse. He has just started a YouTube channel. The video is actually 17+ mins long.
It has been pulled for violating YouTube rules.. but you can find it here,,

Thanks, Purdy!
It took the entire Republican party less than 30 days to stab Trump in the back. He propped them up for 4 years and they undermine him at every turn. And they aren’t even bashful about it. Mitch and the gang rub it in our faces every day. You think Mitch and Lindsey will ever be on Faux News anymore asking for your vote? They have 6 more years of unabated graft, corruption, and wars to start.
The MAGA Movement — Patriot Party — is not uniparty. We shall primary them out anytime we want. 77,000,000 + strong. We the People have decided to take back our beloved and exceptional AMERICA!!!
GOD bless AMERICA.
You cannot convince me, at this point, that the Uniparty wasn’t in on the ballot stuffing, Dominion rigged, SmartMatic “evolving” software steal of this election. Go back and read HR1 from 2019. It is right there in black and white. Not in plain English because the lawyers in DC don’t know what plain English is and definitely don’t want anyone who is a non-lawyer being able to understand how they twist the words to hide the hideous phrases that entangle our republic in their wrongful web. Mitch didn’t know? Really? McCarthy couldn’t do anything? I don’t remember him going on the stump to protest what was in HR1. This crap was there and it either wasn’t read, wasn’t comprehended or wasn’t disagreed with. At any rate, there was nothing more than token objection–nothing short of exposing the evil in the bill warrants any form of objection!
Bingo.
So long as we get rid of Voter Fraud. This one fact is why they have become so strong. And they keep voting themselves money while they take our (this) wealth from us!
At least we see how the Fraud took over everything. Americans can now visualize how stoing we really are – probably at least !00,000,000 strong.
No more of that “we will get them in the primary”. If you cant get them in the primary, we get them in the general election. Stop buying into the nonsense that we have to “hold our noses” and vote for them in the general election. NO! Get them out! The primary strategy never works because they rig the primary. The Dems are not worse than the Reps. They are the same. Get out all incumbents!
Easier said than done. State GOPe are as corrupt as DC. They put 3 nonsense candidates into their Republican Primary along with their incumbent. This splits the vote and the incumbent wins from Name recognition every time. The only way to beat the system is to get a really good young, good looking, military or Police background, smart candidate with good economic backing and Trumps endorsement at the Primary level. In addition now it will require a change away from Fraud Voting machine systems to paper ballots tabulated by teams of people by hand.
Right now, 20% of Trump donations automatically go the RNC, and its probably the same with downballot candidates.
As Sundance said a couple of weeks back, once the RINOs saw all that support from Trump in 2015, they licked their chops over all that money from small donors, and that 20%…To spend on RNC corruptocrats, of course.
A new party, administered by an HONEST treasurer, would keep 100% in OUR PARTY, The American Party (my two cents), and we automatically keep that 20%.
Starve the beast.
It’s extremely time-consuming, tricky, and expensive to start a new party, but I’m all for it! Go get the people that got Ross Perot on all the ballots. They could guide the efforts.
Money means WE HAVE TO GIVE, ALL OF US. $10/month from each of us, auto-debit, would bring in well over a $billion per year, and more, because many can and will give more. But EVERYBODY has to have skin in the game.
I bet Bannon would do it, and others. It takes organization, must start NOW, and will get MUCH MORE pushback than Perot got.
We must be completely self-funded. Even the biggie Pubbie donors only give to RINOs. If we got dependent on their money and then they withdrew it, we would be crippled.
Here you go.

This is what alot of uninformed people like my sister does Not pay enough attention to. She only sees that she has lost her job, and is struggling at Christmas and she and her husband could use $4,000…
It is called instant gratification and the Democrats are dependent on common folks to subscribe to it hook, line and sinker!
“It is called instant gratification”
I beg your pardon? People have been hurting since even before the scamdemic. Tell THEM about “instant gratification”, after they’ve struggled, much of their lives, to just hang on.
You have it backwards. The “instant gratification” is for the corporations, the banks, the politicians and the lobbyists. For the common folks, it’s like this:
China sends a virus. Corrupt and/or foolish governors shut down their States’ economies. The shutdown benefits big corporations, banksters, and others who are well connected. Hurts the average person and small business owner.
Personally, I wouldn’t blame the average person for voting in corrupt governors. I’d think that more votes came from those who benefit from the corruption, instead of from those who have been harmed by it.
Now we are supposed to tell the people who are hurting to just suck it up. How wonderful. /s
“Wow, I phrased this poorly. “Personally, I wouldn’t blame the average person for voting in corrupt governors”
Clarification: I think it was not the average, Main Street person, who voted for the corrupt politicians who are screwing Main Street with their shutdowns.
I call bull snot on that statement. By locking us down. Making it where people can’t pay their mortgage. Killing off businesses. This is an eminent domain issue. These people need to be justly compensated for their losses through no fault off their own. The government owes them much more than even two thousand. Why are we giving money to other countries?
The same people that care nothing about shutting down private businesses soil their trousers at the mere thought of a government “shutdown.”
Uh-huh.
The Uniparty aided and abetted the massive fraud to get rid of We the People’s voice and advocate, President Trump. They will fail.
So, after they think they have stolen the election, they go back to business as usual, raping and pillaging the American middle class taxpayer.
Show up in DC Jan 6th. STOP THE STEAL!
Stop the Steal now has more than one meaning, the election steal and the steal of dollars from the People.
STOP the STEALS !
Copy this and send it to your representatives, the Wool has been lifted from everyone’s eyes, it’s time we let them know that the UNIPARTY BS ain’t working anymore.
How about sending it to your thieving reps along with a few bullit…points…velocity above 990…
Realize that most Conservatives will use an RV to go to this ordeal? Now connect the dots to the Nashville RV explosion that had Police coming and warnings to evacuate. Expect this Jan. 6th to not allow RV’s to come! Bingo, we connected the dots!
Pa, this certainly sounds like a reasonable hypothesis. It’ll be interesting to see if it happens.
Can someone get these people in the Capitol and park an RV at the entrance ?ADMIN: Advocating violence is not permitted at CTH.
The very Center and source of all our woe, is CONgress.
Upset that our Public education system has become Conmunist indoctrination?
CONgress COULD have prevented it, instead they fund and encourage it.
Upset that the Media is Conmunist Propoganda ministry?
CONgress could have prevented it. They continued to increase the amount of media ownership by single entities, they gutted FCC rules, etc. They CREATED the media monopoly.
P.O’d about Big Tech?
BINGO, CONgress could have reined them in, years ago, but did NOTHING.
OUTSOURCING of jobs to China, and Mexico?
The rise of the multinationals?
Growth of the “deep state” and Federal buerocracy, which while most consider part of the Executive, actually work for, and are beholden to,….CONgress.
CONgress holds ENORMOUS power; they “write” (or at least pass) the laws. The POTUS’s only input, is to sign or veto.
And so they put stuff in the bill, so he has to sign it. And, once signed he is Constitutionally and by his oath obligated to enforce it.
And CONgress has increased its power, and decreased the POTUS’s, significantly and incrementally, over the years.
We do NOT have an “Imperial Presidency”, what we have is an Imperial Legislature.
And, with their power of confirmation ovef the Judiciary, there is no check on their power, no “checks and balances”, just checks and cash to CONgress, and an imbalance, both in our budget, AND in our system of Government.
Take a look at that picture Sundance has posted twice recently.
Those four people, working together as they have, control CONgress, and most of our government.
FOUR people, unaccountable to WE the people, because they have ‘gamed’ the system, 16 ways to Sunday.
They all got in and stayed in through VOTER FRAUD. This is the real game. President overwhelmed their system. Wow, blinders gone. We are The People.
We don’t do that here, and we don’t say that here. Shame on you.
Take that crap somewhere else!
“The tree of liberty must be refreshed from time to time with the blood of patriots and tyrants. It is its natural manure.”
We are dealing with EVIL. Will YOU stand by and wring your hands while ALL your Freedoms are Usurped??
When Sundance decides we should fight, he’ll let us know – until then, calls for violence aren’t permitted on the Treehouse.
Thank you for the voice of wisdom, TreeClimber.
Depends on where you live. Maybe not the suburbs, but if you live in downtown Los Angeles or Detroit or other war zones you are already taking up arms just to defend your life and property.
That’s different than a straight-up call for civil war, or assassination.
Trump just needs to go on TV and lay it all out and name names. He literally has nothing to lose at this point.
Ilhan Omar and AOC have tweeted support for a stand-alone ‘clean bill’ of just the 2k direct payment…. maybe they should join POTUS for an evening televised address.
The deep state would spontaneously combust if this were to happen. The establishments’ brains would literally leak out of their ears.
Good idea!
Do you think the MSM would air it? Even Fox (though it was the traitorous Cavuto cut him off) won’t air anything our President does. Twitter has shut him down and has vowed to eliminate him completely after the installation of the stolen government. FaceBook covers up anything the President posts (including Merry Christmas) with one of their idiot boxes. Free press? Not in the United States in 2020. Our press makes Pravda look like a free and unbiased press. Our social media system, though protected by OUR CONgress, wouldn’t know fairness if it were written across the sky. Hitler was a mere rookie when compared to today’s Uniparty. Sadly, they’re proud of it. They have given us the new slogan–Troof, just-us and the UnAmerican way!
That’s why our side must continue to create and develop our own press and media, tv, radio, internet and social, et al!
All the MSM is today is the right arm for the DNC.
Which needs MONEY. We need some big timers to take the risk with the understanding that we will be a guaranteed market for them, and PAY FOR IT.
So, how many of us subscribe to OAN? How many support TCH with a monthly donation? What are we doing NOW?
It’s a big risk for anybody who does it. He/she will have to have a spine of steel. And loyal people. US.
2 grand for every American is nothing compared to what these shitsers have stolen from us. It is sickening to think how wealthy they all are from their lying, cheating, and stealing.
Now we all know what all these “Junkets” are about! Fool me once, shame on you, twice? Shame on me! 90% dastardly conniving POSs!
Whenever Congress uses the descriptors “Omnibus” or “Comprehensive Reform” for a bill, you know it’s going to be a stinker. No responsible person should vote for a 5,000+ page bill that no one has a reasonable amount of time to read. And certainly not by unanimous consent. If they aren’t willing to have their individual votes recorded then it must be a pretty bad bill. Also, if those budget bills are written by lobbyists and think tanks, then why do they need all those committees with so many staffers?
How about we have no bills that are more than 5 pages long? Period. End of argument!
And exactly HOW will you get that passed?
I’d like to shovel $2,000 worth of ice cream down Pelosi’s throat.
Store brand. Not that expensive stuff from her freezer.
Nope, her freezer holds tons, use hers. Why make the cost of the cheap stuff go up for the rest of us?
real shame were she to choke on it
If you cut her throat you could shovel more down…just a thought….errr…wish….er….
What’s with the violent references tonight? This is the Treehouse, not the cesspool.
Please take your violence somewhere else. It does not belong here.
Take that dam freezer and shove it down her throat!
Why not just put her in it? She has, after all, ice water coursing through her veins. Cold, vindictive biddy!
This is a place for productive conversations. Please refrain from calling for violence. Instead, focus on doing something that won’t cause harm to the America First movement. Peacefully attending the Rally on Jan 6, for example.
I have seen some conflicting discussion around the use of a pocket veto for this legislation.
One school of thought seems to agree with you, Sundance, that the President can use the pocket veto, but the critics argue that since the Senate hasn’t recessed in four years, attempting to use the pocket veto would end with this bill becoming law.
Will the pocket veto work because we’re so close to the end of the current Congress that their session will end before the ten days are up? And if so, why wasn’t President Trump able to use Christmas/New Year’s of 2018 for recess appointments?
By the way, I know it’s almost over, but Merry Christmas, Treepers!
My understanding….and I could be wrong….is that any Bill (or nomination) dies when a Congress ends.
The 116th Congress ends on Jan 3, 2021. That is less than 10 legislative days from now, since per Constitution Sundays don’t count.
Ergo, if Trump does nothing, Bill dies, and must be started from scratch in the new 117th Congress.
Aren’t they just VILE. We see exactly what’s going on.
Many will gladly forfeit a $ 600 refund of our own tax dollars in order to DRAIN THAT DISGUSTING SWAMP.
the last time it was Mr. President v wicked witch and a budget, public opinion said ww won
be that as it may ~ President Trump is ready for another go around and I’m behind him
money be damned
crumbs be damned
Our representatives are outrageous. It should be ILLEGAL to lobby congress. Only be able to lobby the people.
They should be going without paychecks as long as the shutdowns continue.
Is there a break down of the 900 billion available for reading? Not the entire 5000+ pages of combed COVID relief AND omnibus. I’m curious to see what they have shoved into the “COVID relief” bill:
Off the top of my head, the COVID part(Division M) is located between pages 1,960 and 2,483 of the 5,593 pages of gobbledygook. I may be off a few pages on either end.
I’m praying this is for President Trump

Well, it will be my husband’s 57th birthday and my maternal grandmother would have been 141 if she were still alive (born 6 Jan 1880). Yes, my grandmother!! Her mother was born in 1842, my mother in 1918 and me in 1962. 😀 Maybe some luck will rub off?
Ilhan Omar’s idea. She’s not wrong. Too bad Pelosi won’t listen to her.

We need to send a clean bill with just $2,000 survival checks and a separate spending/covid relief bill. Negotiating everything into one bill is how we got here, since Trump wants to sign a bill with survival checks, let’s send one to his desk right away.
She has that tweet pinned at the top of her account. She’s as serious as POTUS is.
Under no circumstances should you trust Ilhan Omar.
…mnnn maybe she got her seat through voter fraud?
Just wondering.
CCP nancy pelosi and swamp GOP’s why is matter to you foreign spending in it,
we want only the Americans is matter to us,
Don’t veto it. Leave it to die of a pocket veto. If PDJT hits the bill with a veto, the bill goes back to the hill where congress can and will vote to over-ride the veto. He has leverage by not using his veto.
Yes.He.Does.
And, he is giving them every opportunity, whether they deserve it or not, to DO THE RIGHT THING for a change.
I pray evil witch Nancy gets treated as such before she exits this life
We have a situation here in the U.S. where we know the election was fraudulently stolen. The media totally refuse to be truthful in any of their reporting and in fact refuse to speak about President Trump other than in derogatory terms. There is a Judiciary including the Supreme Court that refuses to hear any evidence of the fraud that was committed. The education system has virtually shut down free speech. The Democratic states continue to instil fear into their citizens. Law and order has gone to pot. All this is going on in what is supposed to be the greatest democracy in the world China seems to be in control. Have they threatened to release more virus. Have they completely infiltrated the computer systems. Are there blackmail files on all the Politicians. All this is going on while Donald Trump is still President. The Republicans are silent, totally unsupportive. What the heck is going to happen after 20th January. Please don’t say all will be ok because it’s impossible to see how.
A few days ago, Rudy said that using the word “fraud” in the context of elections would get a guest booted off the air at Fox.
Louie Gohmert was the guest host on the Sean Hannity radio show a day or two later. He opened the show by saying that the entire three hours would be dedicated to discussing fraud in the 2020 presidential race then proceeded to do so.
Sherri,
I personally have switched to Newsmax TV now. I quit Fox with the exception of Lou Dobbs and Sean H. They are the only two that have remained loyal to our President. I saw where Fox has lost 30% of its audience. They are just another CNN now as far as I am concerned. If I were Sean and Lou I would high-tail it over to Newsmax.
OAN is very good and ver easy to join by going to KloudTV. Very worth the small fee. The Epoch times website is also worth the small fee.
I caught Louie on the radio while I was driving. Usually at that time of day I would pull up a podcast on my phone, but replacing my phone was the main point of being out and about.
I’m holding onto my cable service for the time being because it is bundled with the internet service.
I subscribe to The Epoch Times for $4.99/mo. We complain about not having decent big new outlets. The answer is to subscribe and make the good little ones viable so they can elbow their way in for some market share.
Sean’s radio show is not owned by Fox
Thank you. I did not know that.
What education system? Education is dead in the USA.
They don’t think they have to.
Technically it was the Department of State responsible for the $25m in proposed funding for Pakistan, not Congress. The department run by Pompeo, part of Trumps cabinet…

Gretta meet satan.
It’s what he does and the uniparty works for satan.
Mr. President, push back and fight for us like you always have. You are the only President in my lifetime that has represented us, the people of America. You have set out to re-build the greatest Nation in the history of mankind. Nasty Pelosi, Chuck U, the progressives (Communists-Socialists) and the MSM are desperately trying to destroy our great United States constitution with their tactics, rhetoric and rusted ideology… Again, many thanks to Sundance and all here in CTH who are keeping the candle of God-given freedom lit and burning…
Semper Fidelis
Trump should flip the shutdown argument. He should throw it right back on them. He should say:
“Americans those in the House and Senate want to give you pennies while giving their donors millions. They are threatening to shutdown government. I think you will agree with me/ let them. These same people shit your businesses down without thought and want to buy you off with $600. I think if you great American workers can handle your businesses being forced closed since March, government can handle it for a few days or weeks. We all have to make as sacrifices, Pelosi’s own words, so it’s time they sacrificed too”
So few people have wondered, “I wonder if my servants, government employees, paid with my tax dollars, are suffering like me? I wonder if their pay has been cut like mine, if they can pay their rent/mortgage, feed their kids”?
I try to tell this to people I know, and they just stare as if I was speaking Greek. No outrage, no sense of violation.
Sigh.
COVID relief bill with roughly 6 to 7 percent goes to struggling Americans because of COVID. What in the world does that make any sense?
I went to the Senate Roll Call page to look up a few more things about this monstrosity of a porkulous “Bill”.
The 1st thing I wanted to find out was when it was officially presented to the President so we could determine whether a “pocket veto” would work. It was presented to PT on 12/24/20.
And to let you know just how convoluted this whole thing is, The COVID part as well as the “Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021” that make up this 5,593 page nonsense is actually/officially the following: A House Amendment to a Senate Amendment of the HR 133 Bill which is titled “United States-Mexico Economic Partnership Act”.
So, the consolidated appropriation Act and COVID relief Act are an amendment of an amendment to a House Bill that has nothing to do with appropriations or COVID relief. What a screwy and incompetent way to run a government! And the overall control of this Bill/Act is within the Foreign Relations Committees in the House and Senate–Go figure!
IN other words: This was NOT a STAND-ALONE BILL..These congcritters REALLY are morons!!!!
If Bill to Trump on 24th……
Then 10 days **not counting Sundays, per Constitution** would take it to Jan 5 — 2 days AFTER the 116th Congress expires.
Ergo….the pocket veto is in play.
I am coming around to the point of view that McConnell is trying to lose the GA runoffs. Will it be by letting the fraud repeat or by demoralizing the Republican base by pressuring Senators not to do anything about the fraud and with this abomination? Either way, he won’t be majority leader (assuming the steal sticks) and go back to having an excuse for being useless. Even if the steal doesn’t stick, i am not convinced that Romney will not caucus with the Democrats just to thwart Trump. And Murkowski can be swayed with pork for Alaska.
The slavers are rattling their cages of aristocracy, once again.
Another squirrel moment to divert, a most hideous crime against our Republic in history.
As a Patriot who’s household depends on the small business restaurant industry in locked down NC.,
reach out to the place where there are no golden arches and give them your business, tip as much as you buy. We had 3,000 employees furloughed on March 18th. We have brought back 1,000, people who are making a fraction of what they made before this well laid plan to destroy the indepndent industries employ the second most people in America next to the government.
This is how we fight. This bill Congress sent is a simple power grab, to take down those, who support our President. The uniparty doesn’t give a dam about us. They want us to go away and die. They aren’t having children, their future will die with them. We baby sit these immoral miscreants. We don’t need to babysit the world, while we suffer mightily right here at home.
TRUTH, UNMASKED
[Orig. posted 15DEC2020]
People still need help in understanding the ‘big’ picture. It can be difficult to stay focused through all the deliberate media obfuscation.
The bottom line is that Government(s), globally, are out of options to continue operations without massive infusions of cash to meet current and future debt obligations. Shutting down economies eliminates the only source of revenue from which to extort [tax & regulate] even the minimum interest payments on the existing debt, let alone fund current operational costs. The issue of ‘new’ debt [Govt. bonds/T bills] requires that someone is willing to purchase them [voluntarily trade their cash $$ for next to 0% ROI Government IOU’s].
Given the current political environment and for the sake of argument , let’s just assume that someone, anyone, happens to have an extra Trillion $ or two laying around in petty cash. Just what kind of idiot would it take, to think that loaning it to the Federal Government, at ANY interest rate, for ANY amount of time, is a safe investment? The risk of default is astronomical. Full Faith and Credit requires the consent of the governed in order to be worth the, you know, the thing it’s written on.
No more buying off Government(s) and rigging elections to enslave the People through bondage [debt]. Let FREEDOM ring. Thank you Lord.
Anyone dependent upon the Government for assistance should be thanking President Trump that your support check hasn’t bounced yet.
The corruption has been exposed for the world to witness. The scheme to defraud The People has run its course. Simple debt [globalists] and equity [The People]. Without equity, the debt(s) are worthless. The only chance the globalists [Fed, World Bank, IMF] even have of getting their money [debt] paid back is to keep President Trump in office. Oops.
Oh, what a tangled web…. Say goodnight traitors and wannabe (D)ictators.
‘These things says he that is holy, he that is true, he that has the key of David, he that opens and no man shuts; and shuts and no man opens;

Trust God. Fear not.
Freedom is Ours.
For the life of me, how can anyone with a brain want to be a democrat?? How do you rationalize absolute lies and junk like this bill as something that helps the American people with what they’ve suffered caused by the china virus–
Yep, it’s all about getting the bribe pump going for 2021.
Just like Caesar crossing the Rubicon, someone will eventually raise an army and capture D.C., NYC, and LA. I’m not saying it will be a good person who does it or a bad person who does it. But this will be the progress of it, unless the D.C. crowd reverses course. I’m not holding my breath and will probably die before it happens. But know this: it will happen.
Congress never ceases to disappoint.
Something has happened here. Please advise me if you can. The author and originator of this excellent site goes out to travel to those in power to carry and explain the findings of crime and corruption uncovered, then it is as if he has been silenced or some change has come over the site. I am concerned about this. What was the result of the trip to show the facts to those people and why the change. The “we meet at the old mill at midnight” sense of righteous indignation is not evident now and righteous indignation as shown by this site truly has validity and may be the only power we have to right the wrongs shown here so well.
As for the changes to the site, Automattic used to host The Treehouse. They demanded Sundance remove the site from their servers, because they disagreed with his speech. Because he had to switch to different servers, he lost access to some proprietary features, including comment features. If you look back at previous articles by Sundance, he discusses the change.
I think we are all taking cues from President Trump, he seems to be going any path that avoids Marshall Law and civil war.
But we still have righteous indignation just not expressing it via taking up arms against the system.
Sundance changed the emphasis before the election to “Get out the Vote” which we did. He did this because after his visit to DC he saw that there was such a lack of information sharing between agencies that it boiled down that we knew more than they new about the Fraud. Since then it seems that the agency lack of understanding was probably intentional. Barr’s inaction says it all.
Liberals scream: America has no business being the world’s policeman. Then steal nearly a trillion dollars from the tax payers to fund foreign nations. Makes one sick, watching both sides steal the next generations’ future so they can fund third world hello holes where woman have no value.
Agreed. Also, we don’t even know IF they will give that money to the third world hello holes. Knowing them, the money will go right into their pockets and pet projects instead. We can never trust them to actually put the monies where they say they’re going anyway. Just like Haiti never saw one red cent of those millions promised.
It is beyond my comprehension how people like Shumer, McConnell,Graham and Pelosi keep getting re-elected. We The People ha e a lot of work to do.
Leroy,
It is very possible and quite probable that they keep their seats via the same voter fraud we saw on display in the 2020 fraudulent election and been going on for years. It wasn’t just President Trump that was cheated. We in Arizona also saw them put in anti-gun anti-police Mark Kelly. Keep in mind we are an open-carry pro-gun red-state and we know we didn’t vote Mark Kelly in, as well as anti-gun Joe Biden. Also voter fraud was used to oust Sheriff Joe Arpaio in 2018 which we all thought was ‘strange’ at the time and now know the real reason why.
Monica, I agree! Again, people just have to use their common sense and see that several Republican Senator candidates were robbed of their seats through 2020 election fraud. McSally, Collins, James…to name a few. And the Uniparty is behind it all. They want to get back to their old pre-Trump days/ways.
We’ve been cheated in Az. ever since Kemper Marley supported McStain for congress.
Leroy, the blinders are now off. It should be evident to everyone that the reason these traitors keep getting re-elected is because of the same election fraud now discovered in this 2020 election which these traitors don’t seem to want to investigate or to get to the bottom of. “Move along,” they say, “nothing to see here.”
Do you think in your wildest dreams that these power-hungry traitors would leave it up to the electorate, who they think are a bunch of folksies, to get re-elected in a legitimate election? No! They hate us. They don’t trust us. So they cheated in 2020 and in the past. Common sense tells us this.
There is intent behind joining the Covid stuff and Omnibus into a single budget. IF Biden becomes President “in fact”, he need never pass a budget during his term because the “last budget passed” remains in effect if no new budget is passed.
This would give him an “extra” 970 Billion each year to spend.
Dems pulled this stunt before during Obama Administration. He never passed a budget, either. The last budget was signed by GW Bush and contained $870 Billion for the TARP bailout.
This is just a replay of that event.
That is why the Omnibus Bill MUST be separated from the Covid Bill.
GOD’S RECKONING coming to UNIPARTY!
They’re in the death throes aka death rattle as we speak.
Dying isn’t always instant and takes time.
But their time has come!
They all know it too and that’s another reason they want President Trump out.
Where can we find the list of the individuals who voted against Porkulis?
So we can examine that list to see who among those we might choose to retain.
Roll call vote for Porkulis Bill #4,638, coming up.
https://clerk.house.gov/evs/2020/roll251.xml
Watching the democrat party’s death rattle, seems like it’s taking forever, but sometimes it takes a while for the dying to finally succumb to their end.
Soon this conglomerate of filth and corruption will pass but not without a fight; for it is true that demons scream the loudest and are most violent right before they are cast out. And the UNIPARTY (DINOS & RINOS) have legions of them.
This latest hurrah package is just one of them.
One by one they will come out. Vacate!
Onward to the Trump of the dawn of the golden age, the next page of US HISTORY!
FWIW, Zuckerberg & his wife gave $100,000 to eight restaurants in NorCal to help weather Covid. So they get to “cherry pick” and save their favorites, while tens of thousands go out of business … while hd saves money hiring H1B programmers from China & India.
NBC: “In total the Zuckerbergs gave $100,000 to eight of their favorite restaurants including Palo Alto Sol and Fuki Sushi in Palo Alto, Chef Chu’s in Los Altos and La Ciccia and Liberties Bar and Grill in San Francisco. “
My guess: all restaurants or map people can’t even afford to eat at….60 entrees- abs that’s just the protein. Sides, salads, drinks, and apps all cost extra. Side salads starting at $18.
We all know the type of restaurant- we all have driven by them watching the Tesla’s, Beamers, Benzs, and Mazerratis going in and out.
One of the more disingenuous, lying events yet from the left. In order to get their pork-ladened omnibus bill passed the left included a pittance of the long-argued CV-19 relief payments. The left advertised this dog as a CV-19 relief bill in order to downplay the pork. The left erred by waiting to submit the bill until Trump could pocket-veto it. In doing so Trump exposed the pork in the bill. So now the left is saying that Trump is vetoing a needed spending bill.
The left can’t have it both ways. The truth is, it’s a pork-laden spending bill and a fatally-anemic CV-19 relief bill.
Politicians are the Lowest form of life
on OUR Beautiful Planet Earth !
Democrats are the Lowest form of Politician !
Nice to know the SWAMP’S individual names:
“Pelosi, Democrats, UniParty and Media”
I’d just like to add that foreign country the State of Israel and those with dual citizenship to that foreign country who is really behind the unGodly wars in the Middle East and around the world.
When we form the Trump party and make the GOP a tiny irrelevant 3rd Party, we will know exactly which Republican politicians will be allowed to join us.
All that foreign money means there are dozens of little Hunter Biden’s itching to be bribed.
Are those foreign govt bribes or a wish list for the “Deep State Dept”? Asking for a friend.
Isn’t ironic it is “always” 900 billion? Kind of like the price tag of Obamacare, and his Stimulus or as we call it “Porkulus” that actually got absorbed into the baseline and never left.
This is the Harlem Globetrotters and the Washington Generals at their finest. Too bad the Coach of the Generals is Mitch. I am so ready to bolt, so please Mr President, we know your team lurks here, if they do steal it from you, 80 million of us will follow you so fast to the MAGA party their heads will spin like the character “Regan” in the Exorcist.
Just imagine where we would be at if Hillary would’ve stolen the 2016 election.
This session of Congress ends on January 3rd and the bill was sent to Trump on Dec 22. If there is a pocket veto, Congress will only have 1 day to override it.
However I suspect that Pelosi and McConnell will tack on the extra $1400 to everyone and change nothing else. Then they will tack that onto the deficit run up by Trump thru 3 years plus the faux pandemic to use against him forever, as we did with obama. This is actually an insult thrown into President Trump’s face.
Hi Sundance:
I like your detailed explanation here. You are educating me on this particular topic.
I myself do not want to receive that money even if it will help me buy some stuff if they are just wasting our own dough to other countries.
Were it not for the “rebates” from all of our friends in Ukraine,
a few countries in Africa,
and other “interesting” places, …
there wouldn’t be any banks in the Cayman Islands.
