Democrats Pushing for Illegal Immigrants to Receive Coronavirus Stimulus Checks

Virus Outbreak Mexico

Democrats certainly do have a hard time understanding the word “illegal”.

JustTheNews.com reports that

A group of Democratic lawmakers is advocating for undocumented immigrants to qualify for direct cash assistance due to coronavirus.

The $2.2 trillion CARES Act, in its current form, does not allow individuals who filed taxes for 2018 or 2019 using an Individual Taxpayer Identification Number (ITIN) to qualify for a stimulus check. Many undocumented immigrants use an ITIN to file income taxes in place of a Social Security number.

Reps. Raúl Grijalva (Arizona), Lou Correa and Judy Chu (both from California) have introduced the Leave No Taxpayer Behind Act, which would amend the coronavirus stimulus bill to allow every taxpayer to receive a $1,200 stimulus check, including undocumented immigrants who filed taxes with an ITIN. Rep. Jamie Raskin (Maryland) formally joined the bill as a co-sponsor on Sunday.

“COVID-19 doesn’t discriminate. It impacts all communities and people of all backgrounds. Our relief programs shouldn’t discriminate against those who need help during this crisis, and this legislation ensures that immigrants with ITINs can get the economic relief they deserve,” Grijalva said in a statement.

To support her position on stimulus checks, Chu said coronavirus “does not care” about an individual’s immigration status.

“The CARES Act is meant to help our whole economy survive this crisis. You cannot do that by excluding entire segments of the population. This virus does not care about immigration status,” she said.

“Making it impossible for them to receive the same benefit we are sending to everyone else just means those immigrants will have a harder time affording food or rent, and that leaves us all worse off. I hope to see this corrected in the next relief package,” Chu added.

Correa said that “every individual taxpayer, irrespective of citizenship status, needs government assistance now.”

According to Raskin’s office, other Democratic lawmakers who signed on as co-sponsors of the bill include Rep. Joaquin Castro of Texas, Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez of New York, Rep. Alce Hastings of Florida and Rep. Ilhan Omar of Minnesota.

Don’t you just love how magnanimous Democrats are with the money of American Taxpayers?

So, by giving an individual, who has broken our laws, by entering our Sovereign Nation illegally, to receive the same Coronavirus Stimulus Payout as American citizens, these Far Left Democrats somehow believe that they are “taking care” of dutifully performing their sworn duties as regards “American citizens”?

Sure they are.

And Rosie O’Donnell has a “bikini body”. (Let that image settle in for a moment.)

Is breaking into our country, something that should be rewarded?

No.

What makes the current influx of illegal immigrants exempt from the rules and regulations that every other generation of immigrants to this country had to abide by in order to become legal citizens of the greatest nation in the world? By being here illegally, they are not entitled to the same rights as natural-born or naturalized American citizens.

And, yet, even as I write this, they are in our hospitals, taking advantage of our charity and the finest health care system in the world, and driving our streets, with either forged drivers licenses or those obtained from states who have acquiesced and given them to these “undocumented workers”.

This is in no way a human rights issue. Freedom is God-given, and with freedom comes responsibility. With citizenship comes responsibility, like paying taxes and making your own way.

Speaking of which, my concerns about the Democrats’ coddling of the illegal aliens and the often-proposed “Path to Citizenship” business, can be divided into three bullet points. (Hey, I’m a Former VP of Marketing. What do you expect?)

1. Patriotism – Will these new “citizens” be willing to fly our flag above theirs? Will they be willing, if called upon, to serve in our Armed Forces, at home or abroad? Will they love this country, more than the one they left?

2. Loyalty – When these “new Americans” achieve the right to vote, are they all going to vote Democrat, so that they can receive more FREE STUFF? Will they honestly embrace our sovereign nation as their new home? Or, will they remain loyal to their country of origin?

3.  Immigration – Are we rewarding illegal behavior, while at the same time, insulting all of the brave souls who have come here legally, seeking a better life for themselves and their families?

I understand that people want a better life for themselves and their children.  Our ancestors were all immigrants in this land, except for American Indians, and they got here by crossing the Bering Straight. But there is a huge difference between immigrating here legally and sneaking in illegally, between assimilating into an existing culture, and insisting on replacing a country’s existing culture with that of the country you left.

I’m all for assisting anyone in becoming a legal citizen of the United States, if that is their wish.  But, it must be done the right way, and they must accept responsibility for their illegal entry, show a willingness to learn our language, and embrace our American way of life, including respecting the American Flag.

The Far Left Democratic Politicians who want to give our money to those who have broken our laws exhibit all the symptoms of a disease that I’ve noticed that all of the Far Left exhibit: Narcissistic-Reality-Denial-Over-Educated-Beyond-Their-Intelligence Syndrome. The patient tends to rely on his self-assumed superior intellect, denying the reality of the world around him to the point of forsaking both his allegiance to and concern for the people of the country that has provided him with both his livelihood and his well-being.

This syndrome seems to be extremely pernicious in academic and political figures. The patient actually believes that he is an expert on everything, to the point where he can write and distribute instructional theses to seasoned professionals while lecturing them in a didactic manner.

The only treatment for Narcissistic-Reality-Denial-Over-Educated-Beyond-Their-Intelligence Syndrome at this time is “refudiation” and isolation. The people who are being affected by these individuals must, in a clear and over-whelming manner, let the patient know that they do not accept their attitude or actions and put them in a “time-out”.

In the case of whoever is chosen to be the Democratic Presidential Candidate in the 2020 Election, Americans must send a clear rejection of the anti-American Far Left Democratic Party and their Marxist Political Ideology, when we vote in the 2020 Election by re-electing President Donald J. Trump..

Y’know…at the rate that these educated-beyond-their-intelligence, imperious, Marxism-loving, “Social Justice Warrior” buffoons keep obviously virtue-signaling about wanting to intentionally run our nation into the ground, I fully expect each and every one of them, one day soon, after the Coronavirus Pandemic ends, to respond to an economic question at one of their campaign stops, when asked about the rights and welfare of our veterans and our average hard-working American Citizens, to answer:

Let them eat arugula!

House Voice Vote on Coronavirus Relief Bill to Happen This Morning…Finally

congress-approves-coronavirus-relief-bill-sen-mike-lee-votes-no

The Washington Post reports that

House leaders sought to expedite the emergency $2 trillion relief bill aimed at mitigating the financial havoc caused by the coronavirus pandemic amid uncertainty about whether a renegade lawmaker could delay sending the measure to President Trump.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) and Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) agreed to approve the measure with a voice vote Friday that would not require all 430 current members of the House to travel to the Capitol, given that two lawmakers have contracted the disease and others are self-quarantining due to exposure to confirmed carriers.

The leadership also is taking meticulous steps to change the protocol for debate and voting to ensure the safety of lawmakers.

But at least one lawmaker is considering upending the plans for swift passage. Rep. Thomas Massie (R-Ky.) said Thursday that he opposed the bill, approved unanimously by the Senate on Wednesday, as it would add to the national debt. The libertarian lawmaker also is concerned that voting without a quorum present — the majority of the House chamber — would violate the Constitution. He said he has yet to decide whether to press the issue, which could delay a House vote until late Saturday or Sunday.

At the White House on Thursday, Trump acknowledged that one House member could slow the process.

“You might have one grandstander, and for that we’ll have to come back and take a little more time and it’ll pass, it’ll just take a little longer. But let’s see whether or not we have a grandstander,” Trump said.

The planned vote Friday will culminate nearly two weeks of often heated debate about how to structure a sweeping bill that is attempting to provide hospitals and the health industry the tools to arrest the escalating spread of the virus and to shore up an economy that has gone into a free fall.

The Labor Department reported Thursday that unemployment claims topped 3.3 million just last week in another blow to the economy.

The sprawling legislation would send checks to more than 150 million American households, set up enormous loan programs for businesses large and small, pump billions of dollars into unemployment insurance programs, greatly boost spending on hospitals and much more.

Is it just me or does it seem as if it has taken forever to get to this moment?

The delays caused by the grandstanding of Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi and the rest of the Far Left Democrats were insensitive to the needs of average Americans and just downright arrogant.

Between you and me, I’m thinking that they came around because their internal polling showed that the majority of Americans did not appreciate their politicizing the bill one little bit.

As President Trump has mentioned several times, average Americans have been hurt and hurt hard by this invisible enemy.

They certainly do not need to be hurt by those who have promised to work on their behalf.

The Democrats seemed to be oblivious as to the needs of Americans.

That is why I believe that they were given a reality check when their internal polling numbers came in.

Now I fully realize that there is still some pork left in this bill. However, there is hardly ever a “clean” bill passed in Congress.

And nowadays, considering that the Democrats are the majority in the House of Representatives, there HAD to be some concessions made in order to pass the Coronavirus Stimulus Relief Bill.

Once this gets passed, Congress will begin work on Phase 4 of the Coronavirus Stimulus Relief Bill.

That is when the Republicans will have to find their spines because as sure as I am sitting here in my man-cave in NW Mississippi, Pelosi, the Squad, Chuck U. Schumer, and the rest of the Far Left Democrats will load that bill with every special interest group payoff that they were not able to get in the Phase 3 bill and more.

For now, though, this average American is just thankful to our Creator (that’s for Joe Biden) that we have made it to this point.

We are going to be alright, America.

GOD’S GOT THIS!!!

Senate Passes Phase 3 of Coronavirus Stimulus Relief Bill 96-0…The Ball is in Pelosi’s Court Now

pelosi-1-1

Last night, the Senate finally passed Phase 3 of the Coronavirus Stimulus Relief Bill with a unanimous vote of 96-0.

FoxNews.com reports that

The final bill text will use 2019 tax returns, if available, or 2018 tax returns to assess income for determining how much aid individuals receive. Those who did not file tax returns can use a Form SSA-1099, Social Security Benefit Statement or Form RRB-1099, a Social Security Equivalent Benefit Statement.

The bill would provide one-time direct payments to Americans of $1,200 per adult making up to $75,000 a year, and $2,400 to a married couple making up to $150,000, with $500 payments per child.

Gone are mentions of mandatory early voting, ballot harvesting, requirements that federal agencies review their usage of “minority banks,” and provisions curbing airlines’ carbon emissions — a Pelosi demand that even Saikat Chakrabarti, the former chief of staff to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and an author of the Green New Deal, called “ridiculous.”

“What’s not in the Senate’s bipartisan coronavirus bill: Pelosi’s outrageous wish list,” wrote GOP national spokesperson Elizabeth Harrington. “0 mentions of ‘diversity.’ 0 mentions of ’emissions.’ 0 mentions of ‘early voting.’ 0 mentions of ‘climate change.’ Good!”

At the same time, the bill satisfied some Democrat policy goals. Page 524 of the bill text indicates that many businesses that take a government loan would be obligated to remain neutral in any “union organizing effort” during the loan — a major giveaway to unions. Affected businesses would have between 500 and 10,000 employees.

Also in the final bill text, $25 million would still be allocated for the John F. Kennedy Center for the Performing Arts in Washington, D.C. President Trump, speaking at the White House coronavirus briefing earlier Wednesday, said that he understood the provision was necessary because Democrats demanded some concessions in order to get the stimulus bill passed.

Pelosi was the first to demand the money in her own bill, which Republicans said was full of unseemly payouts for well-connected special interests at a time of national crisis.

The Kennedy Center put out a statement Wednesday evening saying it was “extraordinarily grateful that Congress has recognized our institution’s unique status and has included funding in its legislation to ensure that we can reopen our doors and stages as soon as we are able.”

“For an opera house, you sure are tone-deaf,” responded blogger Jim Treacher, after telling the Kennedy Center where to shove its statement.

Aside from direct payments to most Americans, the bill would expand unemployment benefits and provide a $367 billion program for small businesses to keep making payroll while workers are forced to stay home.

The movement came as stocks posted their first back-to-back gains in weeks, but much of Wednesday’s early rally faded as the hitch developed in the Senate. The market is down nearly 27 percent since setting a record high a month ago.

Amid the debate, presidential hopeful Sen. Bernie Sanders said he might try to torpedo the Senate’s stimulus package. Republican senators dropped their objections about what they called a “massive drafting error” related to unemployment benefits.

“In my view, it would be an outrage to prevent working-class Americans to receive the emergency unemployment assistance included in this legislation,” Sanders said in a statement, also posted on social media.

“Unless these Republican Senators drop their objections, I am prepared to put a hold on this bill until stronger conditions are imposed on the $500 billion corporate welfare fund to make sure that any corporation receiving financial assistance under this legislation does not lay off workers, cut wages or benefits, ship jobs overseas, or pay workers poverty wages,” he continued.

Sanders took to the Senate floor late Wednesday at approximately 9:30 p.m. ET to say he was concerned that the administration would be able to “expend $500 billion in virtually any way they want” under the legislation. In fact, the administration would not have such unilateral control.

…The package is intended as relief for an economy spiraling into recession or worse and a nation facing a grim toll from an infection that’s killed nearly 20,000 people worldwide. Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin, asked how long the aid would keep the economy afloat, said: “We’ve anticipated three months. Hopefully, we won’t need this for three months.”

Underscoring the effort’s sheer magnitude, the bill finances a response with a price tag that equals half the size of the entire $4 trillion annual federal budget.

“A fight has arrived on our shores,” said Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell. “We did not seek it, we did not want it, but now we’re going to win it.”

One of the last issues to close in the bill concerned $500 billion for guaranteed, subsidized loans to larger industries, including a fight over how generous to be with the airlines, given that Democrats wanted to restrict their carbon emissions. Hospitals would get significant help as well.

“There is a whole concern in our country that if we’re giving tens of billions of dollars to the airlines, that we could at least have a shared value about what happens to the environment,” Pelosi said Tuesday.

But, support for Democrats’ climate-change push in the stimulus bill withered Tuesday. The former chief of staff to Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, Saikat Chakrabarti, wrote on Twitter in response to Pelosi’s comments: “I helped write the #GreenNewDeal and I think this is ridiculous. The tiny little emissions standard increase doesn’t even do anything meaningful to stave off climate change and gives the @GOP leverage to get rid of real help for working people. Solve the problem at hand. Hospitals would get significant help as well.”

Why is Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi so skittish about signing this bill which will actually help average Americans, including her constituency?

Well, it is reported that behind the scenes, Pelosi is catching a lot of flak from the Social Justice Warriors in the House, including AOC and the rest of the Squad.

That would explain why the bill which she wrote had so much money going to special interest groups and projects which have nothing to do with the Chinese Coronavirus Pandemic.

According to Brian Darling, writing for Townhall.com in a post published on Tuesday…

One member of ‘The Squad’ wants to use the Pelosi produced ‘stimulus’ bill to eliminate banks. Rep. Rashida Tlaib (D-MI), one of the leaders of the Democratic Socialists in the House, wants Pelosi to insert legislation into the stimulus to damage America’s banking system. Tlaib’s bill, the Automatic BOOST to the Communities Act, would provide a pre-loaded $2,000 government issued debit card to every person in America with a new $1,000 deposit every month until a year after the passing of the coronavirus crisis.

Needless to say, that “brilliant” plan did not make it into the final bill. Thank God.

The Democrats are being destroyed by a monster of their own making.

The Democrats arrogance has become their undoing.

Their erroneous belief that they are the smartest people in any room they walk into has caused them to believe that the majority of Americans believe as they do, embracing he politics of Marxism and the “diversity” of special interest groups.

They learned nothing from the night of November 8, 2016.

And now, their own Trump Derangement Syndrome coupled with the “Democratic Socialist”/SJW Movement, is dividing and slowly consuming the Democratic Party from within, as the Democratic Elite like Nancy Pelosi, Steny Hoyer, and Chuck Schumer are dong whatever they have to in order to hold on to their power within their own party, by appeasing Social Justice Warriors like the Squad.

Unfortunately for the Democratic Elite, their party has moved so Far to the left of the Political Spectrum that average Americans have no respect left for them whatsoever.

And, nominating an almost 80-year old man struggling with the onset of Dementia as their 2020 Presidential Candidate will not help the Democrats regain the trust of the American voters at all.

And, if they dump Biden for Cuomo, American voters are going to have a problem with his Liberal arrogance and the fact that he supports late term abortion.

If the alcoholic Speaker of the House can temporarily stop her two remaining brain cells from fighting to the death and achieve a moment of clarity, she will realize that she must make sure that the Phase 3 Coronavirus Stimulus Relief Bill passes when it is voted on this Friday morning…

…or the Democratic Party will go the way of the Whigs.

Which, at this point, would probably be a good thing.

Instead of Helping Americans, Pelosi Submits Huge Coronavirus Bill Funding Completely Unrelated Pork Projects

07-kink-dt-600

DailyCaller.com reports that

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi on Monday introduced a massive coronavirus bill with a number of provisions completely unrelated to the crisis.

Pelosi’s coronavirus bill is 1,119 pages and contains provisions including, “conducting risk-limiting audits of results of elections,” bailing out the postal service, requiring early voting, same-day voter registration, requiring the airlines to fully offset their carbon emissions, gives you chance to look up greenhouse gas emissions from the flights you want to take, and much more that have nothing to do with helping solve the crisis at hand.

“The country is burning and House Democrats would rather delay passage of direct relief to working families and small business so they can manipulate the way we conduct elections, bail out the postal service, impose greenhouse gas mandates on the airlines, and ensure diversity on corporate boards,” Rachel Bovard, Senior Director of Policy at the Conservative Partnership Institute told the Daily Caller.

The bill also reportedly gives unprecedented collective bargaining powers for unions, increases fuel emissions standards for airlines and expands wind and solar tax credits.

“The bill does take a strong step in prohibiting stock buybacks and limiting executive compensation and dividends from corporations who get taxpayer-funded loans. If she started and stopped there, that would be a helpful proposal. As it stands, it’s lost in the rest of the completely partisan Democrat agenda that is House Democrats response,” Bovard continued.

Pelosi said Sunday that she will halt negotiations with the Senate and move to pass her own coronavirus package in the House, which could drag things out longer than many expected. Pelosi’s legislation will be a $1.6 trillion emergency package, according to Politico.

“The American people are counting on their leaders to deliver results now, but Pelosi and Senate Democrats cost our country at least a day. Small businesses, families, and hospitals are still waiting for aid because Democrats want to ‘restructure things to fit their vision,’” a GOP aide told the Daily Caller, referring to House Majority Whip James Clyburn’s comments to caucus members last week that the bill was “a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision.”

The Speaker’s $1.6 trillion emergency package comes as Senate and House leaders could not lock down a deal Sunday for an expected vote. “From my standpoint, we’re apart,” Pelosi told reporters as she went into McConnell’s office Sunday morning to discuss the legislation.

Meanwhile, The Senate again failed to pass a procedural cloture vote Monday on a phase-three coronavirus stimulus bill as there has been continued internal dispute between both parties.

The vote was 49-46. Republicans needed 60 yes votes to pass the vote. On Sunday night the Senate tried to pass a cloture vote but failed 47-47 as no Democrats would jump on board.

Pelosi’s office did not respond to the Daily Caller when asked about the list of provisions unrelated to the coronavirus.

Among other “important matters” listed in Pelosi’s bill include the return of “Obamaphones” and $35 million for the John F. Kennedy Performing Arts Center.

Recently, I wrote about the Speaker of the House getting caught attempting to put abortion funding in the first Coronavirus Relief Bill.

It turns out that was just the tip of the iceberg.

How tone deaf are Pelosi and the Democrats?

Did they actually believe that average Americans who are out of work because of the “invisible scourge”, as President Trump called the Coronavirus at the Taskforce Press Conference yesterday, would see their pork-laden bill designed to pay their special interest groups as being beneficial?

If so, then they are a bunch of idiots, just as Senator John Kennedy described them yesterday.

There are average Americans out here in Realityville that do not know how they are going to pay their bills and feed their families while they are off work due to the Coronavirus.

That is why the President has been pushing so hard for a bill which will provide immediate relief in the form of $1,200 to every adult American citizen and $500 to each of their children.

What Pelosi and the Dems proved once again yesterday is that they do not give a rat’s hindquarters about average Americans.

Their number one priority is filling their own bank accounts and the bank accounts of their “friends”, i.e., those special interest groups and companies which they have a financial interest in.

I guarantee you, if you look at the investors lists of those wind and solar energy companies who sprang up out of nowhere during the Obama Administration, you will see several Capitol Hill Democrats and/or their family members name listed.

It is amazing to me that after three years of trying and failing to remove Trump from office via impeachment and not passing anything of significance of behalf of average Americans, that the Democrats in the House of Representatives and the Senate remain oblivious to the wants and the needs of average Americans, the very voters whom they always erroneously claim to represent.

If they don’t cooperate with the Republicans and pass some actual relief for average Americans during this difficult and scary time, I would not be surprised to see a march on Washington reminiscent of the scenes in the movies of the villagers chasing the Frankenstein Monster with torches and pitchforks, “shelter in place” be d@mned.

The Democrats awoke, as Japanese Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto called us during World War II, a “sleeping giant” in 2016.

If they thought we were angry then, they haven’t seen anything, yet.

Larry The Cable Guy Calls Gal Gadot and Other Stars “Clueless” for Recording Coronavirus “Imagine” Video…Why He’s Right

Larry-the-Cable-Guy_small1

Hollywood is a place where people from Iowa mistake each other for stars. – Fred Allen

FoxNews.com reports that

Larry the Cable Guy has slammed a number of Hollywood stars who he believes are out of touch with the current homeless situation in Los Angeles, Calif., amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“Wonder Woman” actress Gal Gadot and other celebrities, including Kristen Wiig, James Marsden and Natalie Portman, posted a cover of John Lennon’s famous song “Imagine” on social media in an effort to inspire hope.

“We’re all in this together,” Gadot captioned the video. She said she recorded it on Day 6 of her home quarantine.

But the comedian from Nebraska has called them out on Twitter for being “clueless” in their efforts to ease the public’s concerns over the pandemic.

“Here’s a message from people with a lot of possessions that can take a year off of work and not flinch telling everyone outa work to imagine a world with no possessions while people are living in the street a half mile away from ‘em,” Larry the Cable Guy, whose real name is Daniel Whitney, tweeted Thursday.

“This really pisses me off! Most of us don’t have any savings. Paycheck to paycheck,” one of the funny man’s followers agreed.

The comedian responded, “They’re clueless.”

“The GREATEST lesson we’re all going to learn, is how VERY LITTLE these people matter in our lives. Their red carpets. Their paid endorsements. Their fashions. Their films…,” wrote another Twitter user.

“They are tone-deaf on so many levels,” another person responded to the comedian.

Minutes later, Larry the Cable Guy thanked his fans for communicating with him on the subject, stressing that while he holds no resentment for the stars involved in the rendition, it did not catalyze change.

“I appreciate all the awesome tweets today. Sorry I couldn’t respond to all. I have no animosity toward these folks. The song was in bad taste. Marx would be proud of that song. And I’m not imagining no heaven. Jesus gives hope. Government can’t give people a heart change or hope,” he explained in a second tweet.

As of Friday morning, the confirmed number of global coronavirus infections crossed 240,000. The virus has also reportedly killed more people in Italy than in China as Italy’s death toll reached over 3,400 and is now the highest in the world.

The United States has more than 14,000 confirmed cases across all 50 states and has resulted in more than 200 deaths.

Larry The Cable Guy is a very funny comedian who also happens to be a Christian American, as is his good friend, Jeff Foxworthy.

While the character that Larry plays onstage is basically an overgrown adolescent, in real life he is a pretty smart fellow, who usually hits the nail squarely on the head, as he did here.

The “stars” in Hollywood, like the rest of the Far Left Democrats, are totally out-of-touch with the daily lives of average Americans and what we think, feel, believe, and hold dear.

After President Barack Hussein Obama took office, he made a point of stating several times that America was not just a Christian nation anymore.

And, while that remains true to a certain extent, it is also true that the overwhelming majority, 75% of Americans, still proclaim themselves to be followers of Jesus Christ. And even beyond that, 92% of Americans still believe in God.

What is amazing to me, though, is how American Christianity is constantly attacked by Hollywood and Far Left Democrats.

From illegal immigration to abortion to homosexual “rights”, Americans who follow the teachings of Jesus Christ on these issues, including President Trump and Vice-President Pence, have been under fire by Liberals, who insist that they know more about what is in the Bible and what Christ says, or would say, about these topics, then those of us who actually read God’s Word.

Claiming to be wise, they became fools. – Romans 1:22

When you enter into a Facebook “discussion” with these “new Pharisees”, and you counter their arguments on these topics with Scripture, Liberals are initially slow to respond.

All Scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness, – 2 Timothy 3:16 ESV

Most Liberals will start “Googling” these topics, looking for any Scriptures that will substantiate their position.

There’s been many a time they have come back at me with Old Testament Scripture. It is then that I explain to them about the sacrifice that Christ made for us sinners, freeing Christians from Jewish Law and taking the punishment for our sins , creating a New Covenant by covering Christians through the shedding of His blood.

At that point in the “discussion”, there is a long pause, as they are trying to figure out a comeback.

The natural person does not accept the things of the Spirit of God, for they are folly to him, and he is not able to understand them because they are spiritually discerned.- 1 Corinthians 2:14

This misconception, which I have been trying to explain, involves Liberals’ belief that American Christians will not fight back against them and the things they want to say and do in our society.

If there’s one thing during all of the years of anti-Christian bias, which we experienced during the Obama administration, and now, after Christian Americans helped elect American Businessman and Entrepreneur Donald J. Trump as the 45th President, that the Liberals should have learned, is the fact that Christian American Conservatives will fight back.

It is funny though…that when we begin fighting back, the Liberals have a tendency to label us as uncaring, mean , divisive, and intolerant.

Hence, their tone deaf rendition of John Lennon’s “Imagine” at a time when Americans are “looking toward the Author and Finisher of our Faith” more than ever..

Liberals act that way because they believe themselves to be the smartest person in any room in which they happen to enter.

For Liberal Democrats on one hand to attempt to use the God of Abraham as a Spokesperson and Arbiter against the actions and policies of President Trump, as they have in the past, after turning their back on God for years, and now to sing in the middle of a Pandemic “Imagine there’s no Heaven” is a display of hypocrisy that would have made even the ancient Pharisees blush.

Instead, perhaps they should follow the advice found in 2 Chronicles 7:14 which states

…if my people who are called by my name humble themselves, and pray and seek my face and turn from their wicked ways, then I will hear from heaven and will forgive their sin and heal their land.

And, most importantly, those Hollywood “stars” need to know that

…if anyone does sin, we have an advocate with the Father, Jesus Christ the righteous. 2 He is the propitiation for our sins, and not for ours only but also for the sins of the whole world. – 1 John 2:1-2

We have Someone in our corner.

National Guard General Says Rumors of National Quarantine “Unfounded”…Why are Some Promoting Panic?

5e5d05a6fee23d71f4502714

FoxNews.com reports that

A top National Guard general on Friday refuted false rumors of martial law and a nationwide quarantine as troops continue to get called up amid the coronavirus pandemic.

“I hear unfounded rumors about #NationalGuard troops supporting a nationwide quarantine,” tweeted Gen. Joseph Lengyel, chief of the National Guard Bureau. “Let me be clear: There has been no such discussion.”

Lengyel’s tweet comes as many people across the U.S. reported receiving text messages warning of martial law, prompting authorities to assure residents the messages were fake.

U.S. defense officials have warned that foreign bad actors could use this uncertain time to plant bad rumors in order to panic the American public.

Governors across the country continue to deploy Guard troops in response to the coronavirus pandemic. More than 3,000 have been activated in nearly 30 states to help with efforts to contain the outbreak.

Troops in New York, New Jersey, Wisconsin, Louisiana and Michigan, among other states, are supporting relief efforts. Their mission includes disinfecting public spaces, distributing food, assisting with transportation and logistical support of health officials, and collecting and delivering samples, the Guard said in a news release.

Defense Secretary Mark Esper on Friday said there are plans to bring coronavirus test kits from Italy to the U.S. The announcement comes days after the Air Force delivered 500,000 medical swabs to Memphis to be distributed around the country by the Department of Health and Human Services.

To prevent further infections, Army leaders said they were taking extra precautions by closing recruiting stations.

“We are going to basically virtual recruiting, much of that is done on social media and that allows us to protect our soldiers and also protect the new recruits,” Army Chief of Staff Gen. James McConville told reporters at the Pentagon.

A handful of recruits were found to have symptoms of the virus, the Army Times reported. The branch has reduced the number of trainees and is at 50 percent capacity for recruit intakes, according to the paper.

What we are witnessing is a purposeful and persuasive campaign to induce panic among American citizens from “grass-root” idiots like those who are spreading rumors via text and social media to the Main Stream Media promoting lies and falsehoods designed to upset the public and to turn them against President Trump and the efforts of his Administration to deal with the Chinese Coronavirus Crisis.

In fact, the MSM is not even trying to hide what their actual mission is any more.

As witnessed yesterday, they are blatantly trying to embarrass and demean President Trump by asking stupid slanted questions of him during the daily Coronavirus Task Force Press Briefings.

Meanwhile, the purveyors of panic at the grassroots level are spreading wild rumors and causing people to hoard everything from meat to toilet paper.

I am still trying to figure out what toilet paper has to do with an upper respiratory virus.

And, while I am on the subject of causing unnecessary panic, have you noticed that all of the state and municipal governments who have or are trying to institute Martial Law are run by Democrats?

For all of their “speechifying” about “rights”, real and imagined, the Democrats sure do seem to have a love of restricting freedom, don’t they?

Some of them are even using this crisis to attempt to restrict firearm and bullet sales.

The Dems appear to be following Former Chicago Mayor and Clintonite Rahm Emmanuel’s advice to

“Never let a crisis go to waste.”

I prefer a much better quote, which is attributed to the great Benjamin Franklin, who wrote in a letter to the Pennsylvania General Assembly that,

Those who would give up essential liberty to purchase a little temporary safety deserve neither liberty nor safety.

It is way past time to utilize discernment in dealing with the Chinese Coronavirus.

Panic only helps those who seek to profit from it.

Even in the Middle of the Chinese Coronavirus Pandemic, Dems’ TDS Remains Their Top Priority

06-wuhan-li-600a

FoxNews.com reports that

Former aides to high-ranking Democratic politicians are joining a so-called “coronavirus war room” in order to attack President Trump’s response to the pandemic.

Protect Our Care — a nonprofit tied to liberal dark money groups — announced the war room on Thursday, with the group’s leader accusing Trump of exacerbating the pandemic. Heading the war room is Zac Petkanas, a former adviser to Hillary Clinton and former Senate Majority Leader Harry Reid. Sarah Chase, a former research associate for the presidential campaign of Sen. Elizabeth Warren, D-Mass., is joining the team as well.

Patrick Devlin, former Communications Director for Majority Whip James Clyburn, D-S.C., will serve as an adviser to the war room as well. War rooms are generally set up within political organizations to provide rapid response to the media cycle.

“This team has a wealth of know-how, experience and expertise and with the coronavirus crisis, which has been exacerbated by President Trump’s failure to prepare, we need the best in the business working on advocacy efforts to hold President Trump accountable for his failure to lead,” said Brad Woodhouse, Protect Our Care’s executive director.

Protect Our Care has been tied to “dark money” organizations like Arabella Advisors, which backs other groups attacking the president over the coronavirus response.

Specifically, it houses the New Venture Fund and Sixteen Thirty Fund, both of which support another Democrat-aligned group — American Bridge — that’s been preparing an ad hitting Trump on the coronavirus.

The Washington Post reported on Tuesday that Pacronym is planning to spend $5 million on ads attacking Trump’s response to the pandemic. That PAC is affiliated with the New Venture Fund and Acronym, whose board includes former Obama adviser David Plouffe. The ads will target five swing states (Michigan, Wisconsin, Pennsylvania, North Carolina, and Arizona) and run on major digital platforms like Facebook.

Protect our Care, which is a project of the Sixteen Thirty Fund, has also been running an ad against Sen. Steve Daines, R-Mont., reportedly tying his opposition to ObamaCare to the coronavirus.

On Thursday, Twitter declined to flag another ad attacking Trump’s coronavirus response.

The Trump campaign alleges that the ad replayed Trump saying the coronavirus was Democrats’ latest “hoax” without supplying the proper context. Twitter reportedly refused the campaign’s request to flag the ad as “manipulated media,” indicating it met the site’s guidelines.

“Fellow Americans,” a 501(c)(4) nonprofit, ran the ad but it’s unclear where the group originated. Its website is relatively sparse and vaguely refers to opposing political division in the United States.

I don’t know about you, gentle readers, but I view the actions of these Far Left cowardly, whiny, anti-American, seditious, traitorous, Liberal Democrats and their allies on Capitol Hill and in the Main Stream Media as being absolutely reprehensible.

There are Americans dying and losing their jobs because of a virus originating from a Communist country who wants to wipe us off the face of the Earth and these oblivious idiots are actually defending them, proclaiming that it is racist to identify the coronavirus as coming from China!

Are you kidding me?

Trump could wave his hand and part the Potomac River and these idiots would say that he did not spread the waters far enough apart.

I’m sitting here on Thursday night tired from my actual job and these ungrateful bozos have finally tweaked my last nerve.

Their reckless behavior is directly responsible for the hoarding of meat, bread, milk, cleaning products, and, yes, toilet paper to the point to where grocery stores like Walmart and Kroger are having to have security escort the pallets of toilet paper to the aisle and stand there so that the stockers can actually get the product on the shelves without a riot ensuing.

Grocery stores are setting up special hours for our Seniors to shop so that they can get what they need without being jostled and having to be nervous while they are shopping.

From this average American’s viewpoint, President Trump and his taskforce are doing a good job in a difficult situation.

The time for partisan politics flew out the window back in January when the President had the foresight to block travel to and from China and was called a racist by the idiots mentioned above for doing it.

However, the TDS-driven Democrats were too busy attempting to impeach the President over nothing impeachable.

The Democratic Party’s priorities are so out of touch with those of average Americans that to call them tone deaf would be the biggest understatement in history.

I have a suggestion for all of you Liberal Democrats out there who are still defending China:

If you wish to continue to take Communist China’s side against America, if will be far easier for you to do so if you just go ahead and move there.

You won’t be missed.

Oh, and before you leave, when you receive your Conoravirus Stimulus Check in the mail, please write on it “RETURN TO SENDER” and put it back in the mailbox.

After all, you noble Liberal Democrats, “the smartest people in the room”, wouldn’t want to be seen as a bunch of hypocrites, would you?

Oh, never mind…you already are.

Trump Proposes $1 Trillion Coronavirus Package Which Includes 2 Rounds of Direct Cash Payments to Americans

trump-white-house-messy-desk

FoxNews.com reports that

The White House is moving forward with a proposed $1 trillion coronavirus package that would infuse Americans’ bank accounts with two rounds of direct cash payments.

The Trump administration is seeking $250 billion in payments to Americans starting April 6, followed by another $250 billion cash payment round beginning May 18, according to the working draft of the plan obtained by Fox Business Network.

The two payments to taxpayers would be identical and the amounts would vary by family income and size, according to the Treasury Department document on the “Stage Three” coronavirus proposal.

The Washington Post first reported the document.

The draft of the plan outlines a major economic infusion that goes well beyond the stimulus and bailout plans during the last financial crisis and designed to prop up an economy that has ground to a halt as stores and restaurants and schools are shuttering nationwide and families are isolating at home.

The Trump administration’s stimulus package is bigger than the 2008 bank bailout, and the 2009 American Recovery and Reinvestment Act, which was passed and signed under former President Barack Obama and totaled $787 billion to help stabilize the economy about 14 months after the last recession began.

Congress and President Trump already approved an $8.3 billion package to prop up the health care system to respond to the pandemic. The Senate Wednesday sent another bill to Trump’s desk to give 14 paid sick days to workers, boost unemployment insurance, make coronavirus testing free and increase food assistance during the crisis; Trump signed it into law hours later.

But, all sides have agreed that the government needed to pass a third round of stimulus as soon as possible to help small businesses stay afloat, aid workers who have lost jobs and give the economy a jolt as American consumers nationwide have been stuck home.

The administration’s working plan amounts to $1 trillion on paper. It would provide $50 billion for lending to the airline industry, which has drastically reduced flights due to travel bans and social distancing. The proposal would require “limits on increases in executive pay” until the loans are repaid.

The proposal calls for $150 billion to “other severely distressed sectors of the U.S. economy” through secured lending or loan guarantees.

Trump signaled Wednesday that airlines, cruise ships and hotel industries are all “prime candidates” for support.

The Trump administration also wants $300 billion to help small businesses, which have suffered under social isolation and various cities banning dine-in services at bars and restaurants in an effort to prevent the spread of COVID-19.

The administration would create a “small business interruption loan program” targeted at businesses with fewer than 500 employees that would cover six weeks of payroll. The amount for each employee’s wages would be capped at $1,540 per week, or about $80,000 a year.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin has taken the lead on negotiations with Congress on the coronavirus response. He worked closely with House Speaker Nancy Pelosi on developing the paid sick days and emergency leave program. Now the third round of legislation is being developed with GOP senators.

The negotiations are ongoing, and Trump administration officials cautioned the plan is fast-moving and in flux.

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell has said the Senate won’t recess until a third-round proposal is passed. Then it would head to the House for approval.

Yesterday, the reaction to this good news by the Liberals on Social Media absolutely blew my mind.

Although, I should have expected it.

Instead of being grateful that President Trump was attempting to do something to help average Americans who are being economically affected by the Chinese Coronavirus Pandemic, the Liberals on Social Media started proclaiming that the emergency payments to taxpayers were a form of socialism and that we were all hypocrites, including the President.

First, this emergency relief is NOT socialism.

Marxist Governments NEVER give any money back to the Proletariat.

All of the funds which come into the Politboro stay there, growing the Central Government and making the politicians rich while the Proletariat continues to suffer.

Second, for all of the griping, complaining, incessant criticism, and personal attacks which Modern American Liberals have been bombarding Trump with since his Presidential Campaign, you had better believe that none of them, or the “True Conservative” Never-Trumpers will send any money that they receive back to the Administration.

Every move which President Trump and his Taskforce Members have made during the crisis has been second-guessed and criticized by the usual suspects, who care more about harming the President than they do about the health and well-being of their fellow Americans.

Years ago, when John Calipari, the coach of the University of Kentucky Basketball Team was the coach at my alma mater, the University of Memphis, he called those who continuously criticized his program, the Miserables.

Calipari eventually wound up screwing the U of M’s Basketball Program and splitting to Kentucky, but that’s another story.

These Liberals , just like the Far Left Democrats in Congress, are going to remain miserable for as long at President Trump remains in office.

And, they are going to keep attacking him, being as annoying as Randy Quaid’s Cleveland Indians Fan was in “Major League 2”.

Personally, I am thankful that we have a President who is trying to do his job to the best of his abilities while placing the priorities of America and her citizens above everything and everybody else.

We are going to make it through the Chinese Coronavirus Pandemic.

GOD’S GOT THIS!!!

Pelosi Caught Trying to Sneak Abortion Funding into Coronovirus Economic Stimulus Plan, Blames Republicans for Delaying Bill

pelosi-1-1

DailyCaller.com reports that

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi sought to include a potential way to guarantee federal funding for abortion into the coronavirus economic stimulus plan, according to multiple senior White House officials.

Speaking to the Daily Caller, those officials alleged that while negotiating the stimulus with U.S. Treasury Secretary Steve Mnuchin, Pelosi tried to lobby for “several” provisions that stalled bipartisan commitment to the effort. One was a mandate for up to $1 billion to reimburse laboratory claims, which White House officials say would set a precedent of health spending without protections outlined in the Hyde Amendment.

The Hyde Amendment blocks clinics that perform abortions from receiving federal funding, and Democrats have pushed the Trump administration to end it since he was elected in 2016.

“A new mandatory funding stream that does not have Hyde protections would be unprecedented,” one White House official explained. “Under the guise of protecting people, Speaker Pelosi is working to make sure taxpayer dollars are spent covering abortion — which is not only backwards, but goes against historical norms.”

A second White House official referred to the provision as a “slush fund” and yet another questioned “what the Hyde Amendment and abortion have to do with protecting Americans from coronavirus?”

Politico confirmed after this article went to press that the Hyde Amendment provision was eventually removed from the stimulus later on Thursday and will hit the House floor as a separate bill.

Despite Trump’s assurance that he would sign any stimulus bill that Congress approved, several Republicans rejected the stimulus offered by Pelosi and Mnuchin.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy said Thursday morning he was totally opposed to Pelosi’s plan and wanted to draft a new proposal over the next 24-48 hours.

Pelosi pushed back on that suggestion during her Thursday press conference.

“Families have needs,” she stated. “We don’t need 48 hours. We need to just make a decision to help families right now.”

“I’m not sticking around because they don’t want to agree to language,” Pelosi said of Congress’s upcoming recess week. “Right now we have to find our common ground, work together, to get this done as soon as possible.”

Pelosi’s office did not respond to a request for comment by publication time.

Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi shows her hypocrisy as often as she does her alcoholism.

“Families have needs”, she says.

If she was that concerned about “Families”, she would not have tried so desperately to bypass the Hyde Amendment.

In other words, she would have concentrated on saving babies instead of killing them. Even in a National Health Emergency, where American citizens lives’ and livelihoods are at risk, Pelosi continues to worship at the altar of Molech, the god of the Old Testament who demanded child sacrifices.

I was going to ask where her priorities are, but that is a stupid question.

They are definitely not with the people in the Bay Area she is supposed to be represented, as evidenced by the homeless and the addicts turning San Francisco into their own personal toilet and flop house, as human feces and used needles line the streets.

What is it with the Far Left Democratic Party’s worship of death and their predilection to help themselves and special interest groups, instead of protecting average Americans, especially during such a time as this?

Did Pelosi actually believe that she was going to get by with that garbage?

I guess she did because when she got caught she acted like a petulant child, blaming the Republicans for “holding up aid”, instead of taking responsibility for her own attempts to place self-serving abortion legislation into a bill whose subject had nothing to do at all with the barbaric practice of killing human beings in the mothers’ wombs.

This Emergency Relief Legislation, which the House is supposed to be working on together, is supposed to be about taking care of the needs of average Americans during the Coronavirus Outbreak.

Instead, Speaker Pelosi decided to make it all about what was important to her and her fellow House Democrats.

Which, come to think about it, is what the entire last two years under a Democrat-controlled House of Representatives has been about anyway.

The New York Times Attempts to Name Coronavirus After Trump, Fails Miserably…Again

04-covid-friend-la-600

FoxNews.com reports that

The New York Times was widely mocked on Thursday over an op-ed column that criticized the White House response to the coronavirus outbreak by declaring that the ailment should be referred to as “Trumpvirus.”

The piece by columnist Gail Collins was headlined, “Let’s Call It Trumpvirus,” and declared that “if you’re feeling awful, you know who to blame.”

“The New York Times is blaming coronavirus on Trump now … when they should be blaming themselves for the outbreak of Trump Derangement Syndrome,” political satirist Tim Young tweeted.

Fourth Watch editor Steve Krakauer captioned the column, “Our media is broken – perhaps irreparably so.”

In the widely lampooned piece, Collins criticized Vice President Mike Pence, who has been assigned to lead the government’s coronavirus response.

“Well, it probably could have been worse. Having a czar does make you feel there’s somebody in charge. At least Trump didn’t come before the cameras and announce solemnly, ‘Today I’m asking every American to cross your fingers,’” Collins wrote.

“Our president had to be going crazy over a problem that involves both declining stock prices and germs. This is the guy, after all, who thinks shaking hands is ‘barbaric,’ who is followed around by aides bearing sanitizer,” Collins wrote.

The Times columnist then mocked Trump for blaming the financial markets on Democrats, misspelling coronavirus in a tweet, telling Americans that things are under control and not being as prepared as his predecessor.

“Barack Obama used to have special epidemic-watching groups just in case this kind of crisis developed,” Collins wrote.

“Chances are, if the president is encouraged to mix the subjects of coronavirus and Mexico walls, he’ll suddenly announce that we need a barrier much bigger and thicker and more expensive, so it can stop the flow of immigrant germs,” Collins wrote to end her column.

Critics mocked the piece on Twitter.

The column was published one day after the Trump campaign filed a libel lawsuit against what it called the “extremely biased” New York Times, saying the paper’s March 27, 2019 op-ed titled “The Real Trump-Russia Quid Pro Quo” amounted to a knowingly false smear intended to “improperly influence the presidential election in November 2020.”

“They did a bad thing,” Trump said at a coronavirus press conference later Wednesday, before apparently promising more litigation. “There will be more coming. There will be more coming.”

Donald J. Trump was elected the 45th President of the United States of America on November 8, 2016 with 46% of the vote.

Over three years into the Presidency of Donald J. Trump, the gaping maw that is America’s Political Division is more cavernous as ever.

While the News Organizations like the failing New York Times who inhabit the never-ending metropolitan areas of the East and Left Coasts and the “Beltway” insist, as “some old Lib” named Phil Donahue did in July of 2017 that,

This is the darkest political moment in American History.

Despite what they choose to think and advocate for, those of us who live in America’s Heartland, between the coasts, continue to support the man whom we elected to the most powerful office in the Free World…because he is not a politician.

Liberals who seem to spend their entire day on Social Media posting fake news stories, pulling “facts” out of their hindquarters such as the erroneous claims that President Trump is a racist, and posting anything and everything that they can, in order to attempt to remove President Trump from office, are probably in diabetic shock from consuming too many Cheetos and donuts in their Mom’s basement, as they attempt to comprehend what I am writing.

Here’s the deal, Snowflakes…

None of these fake news stories, Democrat-heavy polls, photoshopped pictures, “Antifa”, and stupid Occupy Democrat Memes on Facebook are making any difference to average Americans.

The Democrats and their Propaganda Arm, the Main Stream Media, as a result of their own regional bias toward the major metropolitan areas on the East and Left Coasts, which has been obvious to average Americans for the last several decades, continue through their sheer arrogance and hatred for the traditional American Way of Life, to distance themselves from the people whom they continue to claim that they “love”…Average Working Class Americans.

Yet still, they expect us to believe the Fake News which they are desperately trying to distribute in a vain attempt get Trump out of office, and which Liberal Trolls are posting on Social Media ad nauseam, so that they and the rest of the “useful idiots”, in their shared madness, can regain the White House, even though all of their Primary Candidates do not stand a chance against President Donald J. Trump..

Americans do not care what Main Stream Media “journalists” such as those employed by the failing New York Times, like the author of that stupid opinion piece, Gail Collins, think.

To put it mildly and in Marital Terms, which even the Liberal Trolls who inhabit President Trump’s Twitter Account can understand, Average Working Class Americans and the Democratic Party have been divorced from each other for a long time.

The Democrats became the party of the “Upper Crust” and Special Interest Groups, who, as the failing New York times has so clearly and unwittingly illuminated in the last several years, look down their noses at Americans who live here in “Flyover Country”.

The Democrats assumed, after reading their own press clippings, that all Americans wanted in 2016 and somehow, still want, the Progressive/Marxist Political Ideology and style of governance which Barack Hussein Obama practiced during his time as President.

Well, we all know what assuming does, don’t we, Snowflakes?

The American People overthrew the “Tyranny of the Minority”, which we had suffered under for 8 interminable years on November 8th, 2016.

The Oxford Dictionaries define the word “mandate” as

the authority to carry out a policy or course of action, regarded as given by the electorate to a candidate or party that is victorious in an election.

Guess what, Democratic Elite, George Soros, Barack Hussein Obama, Facebook and Internet Trolls, Hollywood Celebrities, and the rest of you still throwing a National Temper Tantrum like the failing New York Times and the rest of the Main Stream Media?

Trump won! Therefore, he does have a mandate, which includes building a wall on our Southern Border, regardless what your highly inaccurate Democrat sample-heavy polls show. If you polls were accurate, Hillary Clinton would be our nation’s President (shudder).

And, average Americans, the “Deplorables” between the coasts whom Democrats and the MSM “journalists” like The failing New York Times continue to insult and ridicule on a daily basis, still support and appreciate president Donald J. Trump.

Because it is evident by what he has accomplished since he took office that President Donald J. Trump is working hard to MAKE AMERICA GREAT AGAIN.

That is why none of the lightweight Liberal Democratic Presidential Candidates stand a chance this November of unseating him.

Illegitimi non carborundum, Mr. President.

Average Americans have your back.
