The CBO Just Swept the Leg of Joe Biden's
'Build Back Better' Boondoggle

Original Article

While Nancy Pelosi hopes to pass the so-called “Build Back Better” bill tonight in the House, some bad news came down the line from the CBO. Previous commitments were made by some “moderate” Democrats to vote for the bill only if the budget score came back deficit-neutral. But the preliminary numbers are out, and it looks like the CBO has completely debunked the White House’s “it costs zero dollars” talking point. At first, Democrats were cheering on social media after seeing the following post from the CBO.

The high cost is one of the main benefits for the Democrats. It will fuel graft and inflation. To goal is to destroy savings and the currency.

As bad as the deficit spending is in this bill, I believe the CBO under estimated the deficit. The bill projects an unrealistic windfall in tax revenue. Because of all the wasteful spending and government mandates, the opposite is probably true. Printing and spending more money on pork and micromanaging regulations only serves to fuel inflation. Increased taxing and spending has never worked to decrease inflation in the past.

Biden and his Marxist deep-state puppet masters will not let the CBO's analysis stop them from forcing their leftist agenda on us or running massive deficits. The wretched libs routinely ignore regulations and oversite and are never held accountable. FJB.

A tad confusing. I just saw the statement " budget deficit of $367B over 10 years " on two other websites. A budget deficit is an annual number. National debt would be correct if that is what the CBO means. To me , a deficit of $367B over 10 years means 10 times the # stated. Guess the news you see depends on where you see it.

We really didn't need a CBO report to tell us it would be just more spending for everything the country doesn't need, and taxes would need to be increased to pay for it.

What good does it do for the CBO to out a piece of Leftist legislation for lies about fiscal effects, when the Leftists in Congress vote to pass it, anyway? The Left don't even care about being caught, any more, because nobody will actually stop them, and nobody will hold them accountable.

The City of Waukesha has confirmed via its Twitter account that five people were killed and over 40 injured at the community Christmas parade Sunday evening when a man rammed his Ford Escape through barricades and onto the parade route. Officials noted, though, that the numbers of dead/injured may change and that the situation is fluid. Reports immediately following the incident claimed that law enforcement officers were looking for three suspects, but the tweet from the official city account said that “the” person of interest is in custody.

As we reported earlier, there was a horrible attack Sunday night in Waukesha, Wisconsin, in which a man driving a red SUV mowed down more than 20 people who were participating in the town’s Christmas parade. There were multiple fatalities but officials announced at a press conference that they won’t be releasing more specifics about even the number of deaths until the families have been notified. Multiple reports, relying on scanner traffic on Broadcastify, claimed that a Waukesha police officer reported that the driver of the SUV was a black male. “There’s a car going westbound approaching the parade course.

A car traveling at high speed plowed into a holiday parade in suburban Milwaukee, Wisconsin, killing several people and leaving at least 27 others injured, including 12 children. Terrifying video posted to social media shows a speeding red SUV collide with a group of people marching in the middle of the street during the annual Christmas parade in Waukesha, some 20 miles west of downtown Milwaukee. A person of interest is now in custody, according to police. Despite earlier reports of gunshots, police said they do not believe the driver was armed.

Kyle Rittenhouse, who was recently acquitted by a Kenosha, WI jury on multiple charges, including murder, told Fox News Channel’s Tucker Carlson that he actually supported peaceful demonstrations and the Black Lives Matter movement. He also insists he is not racist during a preview of an interview set to air on Monday on FNC’s “Tucker Carlson Tonight.” “This case has nothing to do with race,” Rittenhouse said. “It never had anything to do with race.

Beginning with the George Floyd riots, liberals have generally taken the position that rioting, looting and arson are just fine, as long as they are done in a righteous cause. This was what the anti-Rittenhouse hysteria was all about: how dare he try to interfere with rioting and arson, carried out by Antifa and BLM? Liberals are generally of the view that looting and arson only damage property, and property doesn’t matter. Besides, all that property is insured, right?

Beyond that, the network also took to denouncing the entire justice system on This Week, during the following hour.

The details are sketchy right now, but just minutes ago, someone plowed a vehicle through a Christmas parade in Waukesha, Wisconsin, at a very high speed. They escaped leaving the street filled with victims. Here is the vehicle speeding down the road past one march unit. Here is the vehicle blasting through barriers and making its escape. It sounds like gunshots. Some people are claiming the driver was shooting, others that police were shooting at the car. To me, it looks like the cop in the safety vest at the left of the screen fires the shots. This is ground zero of the incident.

A few weeks ago, John covered a story about former New York Times reporter Nellie Bowles quitting her job at the Gray Lady and writing a newsletter for Bari Weiss’ Substack. That was, as John put it, sort of an inside baseball report for those who closely follow the political media industry, or at least it seemed so at first glance. In her newsletter, Bowles described the shifting attitude in the New York Times newsroom and how she “became suspect” at the paper when she failed to “cheer on” or at least ignore a leftward power shift in both the country and American newsrooms.

The relationship between Joe Biden, Kamala Harris, and their respective staffs has been on rocky ground for months. As RedState previously reported, the vice president and her camp have complained about being abandoned, even blaming racism as a possible factor, while the White House has fretted at Harris’ sheer incompetence and inability to garner support on her own. Those tensions have led to lots of speculation about what exactly happens in 2024. Harris is clearly a terrible candidate, something she showed during the 2020 presidential primary, but she’s also the heir apparent until Democrats forcibly remove her from that position.

A former college professor was indicted by a federal grand jury Thursday for allegedly starting four wildfires in Northern California earlier this year, near the deadly Dixie Fire. Gary Stephen Maynard, 47, faces up to 20 years in prison and a $250,000 fine for each count of arson to federal property, the U.S. Attorney's Office for the Eastern District of California said in a statement. The blazes threatened to trap firefighters as they battled the massive Dixie blaze - the second-largest wildfire in California history - nearby, prosecutors said.
