So, in insisting that aid to Israel - a check to an ally - is actually covered, he offset the spending with cuts to the IRS. Keep in mind that he's not taking funding they've been using for years, but he is cutting new spending that was being sent their way via the so-called "Inflation Reduction Act." This has confounded and outraged the "This Isn't How We Do Things" crowd in Washington D.C., Like how its spelled out for the house to pass 12 separate appropriation bills per year. In some important document any civil servant or lawyer should understand. Article I, Section 9, Clause 7: No Money shall be drawn from the Treasury, but in Consequence of Appropriations made by Law; and a regular Statement and Account of the Receipts and Expenditures of all public Money shall be published from time to time. As discussed in more detail in earlier essays, the Framers sought to limit the legislative power only to those powers granted by the Constitution.1 Section 8 of Article 1 sets out the bulk of Congress’s enumerated legislative authorities. Congress’s most significant powers, in terms of the breadth of authority, may be its power of the purse,2 referring to its authority to tax and spend3 and its power to regulate interstate and foreign commerce.4 Section 8 also defines a number of more specific powers. For example, it gives Congress authority to establish uniform laws on naturalization and bankruptcy,5 establish post offices6 and courts,7 regulate intellectual property,8 and punish maritime crimes.9 Further, although the President is the Commander in Chief,10 Section 8 also grants Congress certain war powers, including the power to declare war,11 to raise and maintain armies and a navy,12 and to call forth the militia for certain purposes.13 Apart from these specific powers, Section 8 also provides that Congress may make all Laws which shall be necessary and proper for carrying into Execution the foregoing Powers and other express constitutional powers.14 This Necessary and Proper Clause gives Congress discretion over the means it chooses to execute its enumerated powers, so long as the goal is legitimate and the means appropriate. but its much easier to hide pet projects in ombibills with the threat of a shut down for public support. -

So the Palestinians have a right to remember who did it, but not why. but the Israeli civilians are supposed to forget and ignore the HAMAS slaughter of civilians on the 7th? -
as always. Similar to its understanding of most topics past a headline or edited video/meme

the house controls the purse strings. just saying -
Back to the uneducated narrative. Never mind the targeting of the uneducated youth, and banking on them to take the left over the line again. like 2020 Guess what, people lie on polls when asked about the highest education level. and that's the only source for your narrative.

Here is Bill Clinton statements on the passing of the 1995 immigration bill. its been an issue for a long time. CQ Almanac Online Edition (cqpress.com) Former United States President Bill Clinton asserted that the legislation strengthened "the rule of law by cracking down on illegal immigration at the border, in the workplace, and in the criminal justice system — without punishing those living in the United States legally". https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Illegal_Immigration_Reform_and_Immigrant_Responsibility_Act_of_1996#:~:text=Former United States President Bill,in the United States legally". And kinda Ironic cause he just came out stating NY needs to end its mandatory shelter laws and wants housing (prisons) for them to be housed near the border till hearings/permits. "New York City's predicament is part of a larger issue of a lack of housing for migrants, he said. Clinton proposed a possible solution of building more housing along the southern border, which could ensure migrants have a place to stay while waiting to receive work permits." Bill Clinton supports modifying NYC's 'Right to Shelter' law amid migrant crisis: 'It's broken' | KECI (nbcmontana.com) On December 5, 1979, the New York State Supreme Court ordered the City and State to provide shelter for homeless men in a landmark decision that cited Article XVII of the New York State Constitution., Not forever Other cities and states just passed similar laws while the media was calling trump a racist for building a wall. in a knee jerk reactionary way. Never minding it would lead to this. Anything is kosher as long as its resisting the orange dude.

Biden and the crises er challenge on the border
Tommy Callahan replied to Unforgiven's topic in Politics, Polls, and Pundits
That seems to be the sweet spot. A part- or full-time minimum job meats the job requirements. works out to 15K in at 7:50, 31K at 15 like some states. Then the basic poverty threshold for services is 15 for single, 29 for a family of four. so they are in that nasty trap of working but needing and getting assistance. -

PACS, Charities, lobbyist, and think tanks. mostly funded by the same small sub section of the top quintile. drive policy, drive wedge topics, sue to keep people off the ballot, harvest and deliver ballots from housing projects and senior living centers and what not. Political spending in the 2020 election totaled $14.4 billion, more than doubling the total cost of the record-breaking 2016 presidential election cycle. That’s according to OpenSecrets’ analysis of Federal Election Commission filings. OpenSecrets previously estimated that the 2020 election would cost around $14 billion. The extraordinary spending figure makes the 2020 election the most expensive of all time by a large margin. https://www.opensecrets.org/news/2021/02/2020-cycle-cost-14p4-billion-doubling-16/ Democratic candidates and groups spent $8.4 billion, compared to $5.3 billion for Republicans. Democrats' spending falls to $7 billion when excluding spending by billionaire presidential candidates Michael Bloomberg and Tom Steyer. When they are getting that much cash, anyone without that kind of support isn't even being seen or heard.

The interesting part is how badly its pissed of another large voting block for her. Used to be righties complaining on her X and other social media statements. now its nonstop attacking her for her position on Israel and traveling there. Dude is worth 4 billion dollars and wants the Palestinians to be martyrs. Terrorizing Israel and the Palestinians while getting stupid rich.
