Republicans Promise “Hell” For Democrats Over Bill
ON THIS DAY IN HISTORY…
1990: The US deploys troops to Saudi Arabia, beginning Operation Desert Shield.
The U.S. Senate is in for a long weekend as Democrats attempt to pass the sweeping Inflation Reduction Act without bipartisan help.
“So, what will vote-a-rama be like?” Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-S.C.) told reporters on Friday. “It’d be like hell.”
“They deserve this. As much as I admire Joe Manchin and Sinema for standing up to the radical left at times, they’re empowering legislation that will make the average person’s life more difficult,” he added.
The Hill reported that Graham and Sen. Roger Marshall (R-KS) both threatened to refrain from voting for a key funding measure ahead of a September deadline — when government funding is set to expire.
The outlet noted that Democrats are trying to pass the Inflation Reduction Act by using a complex method known as budget reconciliation. The procedure would allow Senate Democrats to pass the bill with a simple majority rather than the usual 60-vote threshold.
The GOP used budget reconciliation to pass former President Donald Trump’s tax law in 2017.

I really believe that all of us should start suint the Democrats for murdering America. To fund their inflation bill will be to tax us to death. How is that fighting inflation? It will be worse for us while they line their pockets!
Has everyone in DC lost their collective minds?? How do you or I reduce our personal spending, reduce said spending by spending more??? DUH??????!!!!
LOTTA PROMISE TO THE ARTICLE BUT NO MEAT ??
Politicians have proven themselves to be to stupid to be spending our money.
The real problem is that these politicians are always dealing with “our money” and not their own. It seems that they have totally lost their minds. When they’ve stolen enough from us that we have no more to give it’ll be the end. We have a chance to change that in November!
Everyone who voted for this should be arrested and found guilty of corruption and put in jail.
