The dire warnings have already started if Democrats don't get exactly what they want
For months the media warned about a worldwide disaster if the Republicans didn't cave on the debt ceiling. Basically, they regurgitated Democrat talking points as they always do. It was always an exaggerated crisis.
Now, they have started warning about a government shutdown. Isn't it great that government shutdowns are always Republicans' fault.
Government shutdown warnings rise as Republicans seek deeper cuts in budget battle
The most consequential move of the week, however, was an announcement from GOP leadership that arrived with little fanfare. Republicans said they plan to pursue appropriations bills, which fund government programs and agencies, with less spending than the top-line numbers they agreed to in a deal with the White House last month
In 2013, Republicans were blamed because they wanted a couple of changes to Obamacare funding and the Democrats didn't like them. But it was the Democrats who wouldn't pass the bi-partisan house bill. So why wasn't the shutdown both parties' fault or of the Democrats alone?
The latest House bill, passed early Sunday by a near party-line vote of 231-192, sent back to the Senate two major changes: a one-year delay of key provisions of the health insurance law and repeal of a new tax on medical devices that partially funds it. The steps still go too far for the White House and its Democratic allies.
In 2015, The Democrats were willing to shut down the entire government if their rich political supporters, Planned Parenthood, didn't get their annual over $500 million kickback. But according to Politico, that was a Republican Debacle.
How Planned Parenthood could shut down the government
It’s a potentially ominous sign for GOP leaders desperate to avoid another shutdown debacle.
The longest shutdown in history occurred because Democrats wouldn't approve border wall funding to help enforce immigration laws. Somehow, they called building a wall for $5 billion expensive, ineffective, and immoral. It has been obvious for a long time that Democrats don't care about protecting America and enforcing laws that Congress passed.
What you won't find in these articles is the media blaming Democrats for the shutdowns. At least the media sort of split the blame on this shutdown.
The top Democratic leaders in Congress issued a joint statement accusing Trump of "plunging the country into chaos" on Christmas Eve.
"The stock market is tanking and the president is waging a personal war on the Federal Reserve – after he just fired the Secretary of Defense," Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer and House Speaker-nominee Nancy Pelosi said in statement after Trump posted his 10th tweet of the day. “Instead of bringing certainty into people’s lives, he’s continuing the Trump Shutdown just to please right-wing radio and TV hosts."
Democratic lawmakers have blasted Trump's proposed wall as expensive, ineffective and immoral.
Does anyone spot a pattern?
The shutdown in 2013 occurred because Democrats didn't get everything they wanted on Obamacare and it was blamed on Republicans.
The shutdown in 2015 occurred because Democrats couldn't get the annual kickback to Planned Parenthood and it was blamed on Republicans
The shutdown in 2018 occurred because the Democrats wanted to block funding to secure the border and protect the American people and somehow Democrats weren't completely responsible.
And if Democrats don't get the spending they want this year, the media is already pre-blaming Republicans because Republicans want some minor budget cuts over ten years while the media and other Democrats continue to want unrestrained spending.
It has been clear for a long time that most of the media are essentially campaign workers for Democrats and their big government policies with more regulations, higher taxes, and more power for the greedy government, as long as it is run by Democrats. This had been occurring long before Trump came along.
If they are able to dispose of Trump, they will just seek to destroy the next Republican contenders, whoever they are and how many lies they have to tell. It doesn't matter if they are a black man named Tim Scott or a minority woman named Nikki Haley. After all, they were able to destroy Republican squish Mitt Romney by saying he was a rich man who didn't care about the poor and spreading the lie that he didn't pay taxes for ten years.
Meanwhile, if you are a corrupt criminal named Hillary or Joe, you can mishandle as many classified documents as you want and line your pockets with huge kickbacks and not only won't the media care, they will collude with corrupt Justice officials and other Democrats to hide the truth from the public. Hillary and Joe are essentially above the law.
And it doesn't matter what the issue is, most of the media will reflexively support Democrats no matter how unpopular their policies are.
- Budgets
- Taxes
- Regulations
- Health care
- Immigration
- Lawless sanctuary cities and states
- Blocking school choice
- Abortion on demand at all stages of pregnancy, no matter how viable the child is.
- Gender changes for children, even without parental permission
- Men competing with women in sports
- Men exposing themselves in women’s facilities
- Forcing people to take vaccines or get fired
- Making people buy electric cars
- Having a goal to destroy companies that provide reasonably priced energy.
And as they take away choice on almost everything and dictatorially tell people and businesses what to do, the media and other Democrats falsely claim Trump and other Republicans are the authoritarians.
Journalists who are so one-sided and intentionally hide the corruption of Democrats are dangerous to our great country and certainly do not care about free and fair elections. They interfere every day more than the Russians and Chinese have ever done.
Another thing most media outlets do is try to destroy media outlets who don't go along like Fox News, Newsmax, Bretbart, and Twitter under Elon Musk.
It is a shame. Journalism used to be an honorable profession that thrived on rooting out corruption and competition. Now, most of them just repeat talking points pushing the leftist agenda to remake, weaken, and destroy America.
The choice gets easier every day, The people must fight against the massive leftist cabal.

"This is how they will destroy America from within. The leftist billionaires who orchestrate these plans are wealthy. Those tasked with representing us in Congress will never be exposed to the cost of the invasion of millions of migrants. They have nothing but contempt for those of us who must endure the consequences of our communities being intruded upon by gang members, drug dealers and human traffickers. These people have no intention of becoming Americans; like the Democrats who welcome them, they have contempt for us." PATRICIA McCARTHY

‘Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse’ Teams with Soros-Backed American Immigration Council
Sony’s animated blockbuster Spider-Man: Across the Spider-Verse has released an ad in partnership with a George Soros-backed group whose goal is to import more cheap immigrant labor.
The American Immigration Council (AIC) is taking credit for the PSA — but instead of mentioning immigration, the Hollywood partnership is being marketed as a plea for “belonging,” with the goal of creating a “more welcoming nation.”
The Spider-Man tie-in consists of a 30-second video featuring characters from the hit sequel accompanied by a voice-over urging greater acceptance of others.
“It doesn’t take a superhero to bring forces together. We all have the power to reach out and help someone feel like they belong,” the narrator says.
Watch below:
Spider-Man is partnering with a group called Belonging Begins with Us, which is a project of AIC — the Soros-backed organization that is trying to flood the country with cheap labor by pushing for more immigration as well as amnesty for some illegal aliens.
Belonging Begins with Us works with the Ad Council to partner with prominent brands and entertainment titles in an attempt to push its soft message of “belonging” and “welcoming.”
“Belonging” has emerged as a key marketing buzzword for the AIC, which defines it as a “fundamental human need, and one that is linked to many of the most complex challenges of our time.” The organization has even published a study titled “The Belonging Barometer,” which calls for greater acceptance of “non-citizen immigrants” and other groups.
“The Americans who report being treated as ‘less than’ tend to be younger, first-generation or non-citizen immigrants, identify as non-Hispanic white, or identify as a gender minority,” the study concludes. “The range of demographic categories who reported being treated as ‘less than others.'”
The Hollywood push comes amid falling support for immigration, as the Biden administration’s open-border policies have resulted in an unprecedented tsunami of illegal border crossings.
As Breitbart News reported, a YouGov poll found a growing plurality of citizens alongside almost two out of three Republicans say immigration makes the nation “worse off.”
Spider-Verse 2, which is a Marvel Studios production, is poised to become one of the biggest movies of the summer. The sequel has so far grossed $225 million domestically and is in the midst of its global rollout.
The Soros network may go through a shakeup in the coming years, as the infamous left-wing billionaire has handed over the reins of his activism-charity projects to his millennial son Alex.

DEMOCRATS' BILLIOANIRES FOR OPEN BORDERS
Analysis: Joe Biden’s ‘Build Back Better’ Would Make the Rich Even Richer
President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better Act” is set to give a tax cut to about 67 percent of the nation’s richest Americans — those earning more than $885,000 every year.
A new analysis from the Committee for a Responsible Federal Budget reveals that the filibuster-proof reconciliation package will give a tax cut to two-thirds of the top one percent of earners even as the top one percent now hold more wealth than the entire American middle class.
“This is true despite the fact that Build Back Better would raise taxes substantially for the extremely rich (mainly those making over $10 million per year),” the analysis states.
In effect, those in the top one percent would receive an average tax cut of more than $16,000 in 2022 under Biden’s plan. The tax cuts for the wealthy would be a result of the plan’s increasing the State and Local Tax (SALT) deduction cap.
As Breitbart News has reported, the plan amounts to a $625 billion tax cut for the wealthiest of Americans living primarily in blue states.
“In other words, the largest tax cuts in dollars in Build Back Better would go to households in the top five percent and especially the top one percent,” the analysis continues. “Many make millions of dollars of annual income and tens of millions of dollars in assets.”President Joe Biden’s “Build Back Better Act” is set to give a tax cut to about 67 percent of the nation’s richest Americans — those earning more than $885,000 every year.

At the same time, Biden’s plan would squeeze an extra $200 billion out of American taxpayers by mostly targeting working and middle class earners with more Internal Revenue Services (IRS) audits.
The plan ensures nearly 600,000 more working and middle class Americans earning $75,000 or less a year would be audited by the IRS. Of those new IRS audits, more than 313,000 would target the poorest of Americans who earn $25,000 or less a year.
Biden’s “Build Back Better Act” has already passed the House, thanks entirely to Democrat support, and now awaits scrutiny in the United States Senate.
In 2017, former President Trump had the SALT deduction capped at $10,000. Since then, Democrats have sought to deliver their wealthy, blue state donors with a massive tax cut by eliminating the cap altogether or greatly increasing it.
Biden, for instance, had sought to include tax cuts for his billionaire donors in a Chinese coronavirus relief package earlier this year. The plan was ultimately cut from the package. House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-CA), in May 2020, also tried to include the plan in a coronavirus relief package.

Here's What We Know About Alex Soros, Progressive Scion Taking Over His Father's Political Empire
The Democratic megadonor George Soros has ceded control of his political empire to his son, Alexander Soros.
The succession plan was revealed Sunday, in a Wall Street Journal profile of the 37-year-old Soros scion. All eyes are now on Alex Soros as he prepares to take his father's place atop the country’s most powerful progressive political operation.
Here's what we know about the younger Soros.
He's ‘More Political’ Than His Pops
The younger Soros says he is "more political" than his 92-year-old father, the Democratic Party’s biggest donor.
Alex Soros has given tens of millions of dollars to Democrats over the years. He contributed $5.25 million to the Senate Majority PAC in 2016 and 2018. He contributed $721,300 to the Biden Victory Fund in 2020 and $350,000 to Hillary Clinton’s victory fund in 2016. Soros has given millions more to the DNC and other Democratic committees.
Alex Soros has not contributed as much to other political advocacy groups as his father has over the years. George Soros, through his Democracy PAC and Democracy PAC II, has contributed tens of millions of dollars to traditional political committees, as well as to advocacy groups like Planned Parenthood, MoveOn, and American Bridge. Both Soroses have contributed this election cycle to moderate Democratic senator Jon Tester (Mont.), considered one of the most vulnerable incumbents in 2024.
The elder Soros has also funded a network of left-wing prosecutors whose soft-on-crime policies have been blamed for surging crime and low police morale. In 2018, Alex Soros contributed $100,000 to help elect Minnesota attorney general Keith Ellison, a progressive Democrat who faced allegations of domestic abuse and blamed police for damage sustained during the George Floyd riots.
His Money Opens Democratic Doors
Alex Soros’s extensive campaign giving appears to open doors for him to many senior Democratic lawmakers.
The younger Soros huddled with Vice President Kamala Harris last week and declared he was "Ridin’ with Biden" in a recent photo with President Biden. He has rubbed shoulders with former House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer, and former President Barack Obama, according to his social media feeds.
He Spends A Lot of Time At the Biden White House
Alex Soros also appears to have open access to the White House, having visited at least 17 times during Biden’s tenure, according to visitor logs.
Most of those meetings have been with Biden’s political and domestic policy advisers, but Soros has had five meetings with Jon Finer, the principal deputy national security adviser.
The Washington Free Beacon reported that Soros met with Finer on the same day that Brazilian president Luiz Inácio Lula da Silva visited the White House. According to the Wall Street Journal, Soros met the left-wing Brazilian leader to advocate on behalf of the Open Society Foundations, his father’s philanthropy.
He Runs His Father's Left-Wing Nonprofit
Alex Soros took over in December as chairman of the board of Open Society Foundations, which pours hundreds of millions of dollars annually into progressive causes in the United States and around the world.
Open Society has backed groups that support the movement to defund the police and expand the Supreme Court, among other left-wing causes.
Alex Soros told the Journal he plans to use Open Society’s $25 billion war chest to fund the expansion of abortion and voting rights across the country.
He Lacks Dad's Business Savvy
Alex Soros does not appear to have his father’s business acumen, raising questions about the long term viability of his political empire. George Soros has amassed a fortune of around $7 billion, largely through his Soros Fund Management hedge fund.
Jonathan Soros, Alex’s older half-brother, was initially seen as the heir apparent to his father’s business and political empire, but the pair had a falling out over management style.
Alex Soros is an adviser to an apparel supply chain fund, Tau Management, funded by his father. Tau invests in apparel and textile factories in Asia in order to build "agile, sustainable manufacturing partners" to major apparel brands. The fund requires its partners to have a "strong and sincere commitment to [Equity, Sustainability, Governance]."
He Just Wants to Party
Before his ascent to the top of his father’s political empire, Alex Soros was better known for his semi-playboy lifestyle. According to the New York Post, Soros hosted celebrities at a $72 million Hamptons estate he rented in 2016, and has often been spotted hanging out with NBA players and supermodels.
Soros reportedly hired New York City club promoter Adam Spoont to recruit models to attend Soros’s house parties. Spoont’s success landed him an invitation to an Alex Soros fundraiser, where he was able to meet President Obama, according to Page Six.
His Father Has Been Accused of Domestic Abuse
The elder Soros's ex-girlfriend, Brazilian model Adriana Ferreyr, says Alex's dad once slapped and choked her while they were in bed. Ferreyr later sued George Soros for $50 million.
He pissed off Taylor Swift
Alex Soros led a consortium of investors who bought rights to Swift’s unreleased music for $330 million, drawing the ire of the pop superstar.
"It looks to me like Scooter Braun and his financial backers, 23 Capital, Alex Soros, and the Soros family and The Carlyle Group, have seen the latest balance sheets and realized that paying $330 million for my music wasn't exactly a wise choice and they need money," Swift said in 2020. "In my opinion, just another case of shameless greed in the time of Coronavirus. So tasteless, but very transparent."
