Government Funding Standoff Cuts Off Ukraine
Cash for First Time Since Start of War
Posted By: Imright, 9/30/2023 10:10:39 PM
A vast bipartisan majority in the House voted on Saturday for a stopgap spending bill that does not include Ukraine aid funding, a first amid America’s generous support for Ukraine’s conflict with Russia. The House passed a stopgap spending bill that keeps government spending levels, otherwise known as a continuing resolution (CR). The CR will keep the government open for 45 days. Although this will not serve as a long-term solution for government funding, the CR will not have any Ukraine aid.

Miami—The ad sounds like something out of the GOP 2024 playbook, trumpeting a senator’s work with Republicans to crack down on the flow of fentanyl and other illegal drugs into the U.S., getting tough on Chinese interests helping smugglers, and noting how he “wrote a bill signed by Donald Trump to increase funding for Border Patrol.”
It’s actually a commercial for Sen. Sherrod Brown, an Ohio Democrat facing a tough reelection fight that will help decide control of the Senate.
“Ohioans trust Sherrod Brown to keep us safe,” says the narrator of the ad, sponsored by the Democrat-aligned Duty and Country PAC. His campaign declined to comment.
New footage of Donald Trump legal statement during his New York City deposition is chilling to watch: We’ve never seen Trump like this!
What they are doing to President Trump is unconstitutional and disgusting to watch!
Here is President Trump reading his statement during the bogus case brought against him by Letitia James.
Trump never backs down. That’s why we love this man.
And that’s why the Marxists hate him. The Office of Letitia James released the video earlier this week from his deposition on August 22, 2022.
Kamala Harris was recently speaking to Democrats in St. Louis when she launched into a bizarre laughing fit.
At the time, she was talking about the Biden/Harris economic policies, which are obviuously terrible.
Why does she do this? Is it a nervous tic?
RedState reports: People Wonder if Kamala Harris Was High After Hysterical Laughing Fit...Kamala Harris may be the most uninteresting major politician on the scene right now. It’s hard to express how terrible of a politician she is, and somehow, she continually manages to get worse.
Walgreens employees, pharmacists, technicians and support staff are set to walk off their jobs next week in protest of conditions they say threaten patient health and safety.
The protests are set to start on October 9 and run until October 11. Employees have the option of protesting however long they like between the three days, organizers say.
It is being done in response to what pharmacy employees call 'burdensome prescription and vaccination expectations.'
Israel's military has declared a 'state of war' after Islamic militant group Hamas fired a claimed 5,000 rockets into the country early on Saturday.
Forces in the country have ordered residents to remain indoors and air raid sirens are sounding in Tel Aviv and Jerusalem after Hamas militants 'infiltrated' the country in several locations near the Gaza border in southern Israel.
Hamas supreme military commander Mohammed Deif said the operation, Al-Aqsa Storm, was a declaration that 'enough is enough' as he urged Palestinians to confront Israel.
Former President Donald Trump said Thursday that President Joe Biden owes him an apology for resuming the southern border wall that Trump began and that Biden mocked throughout the 2020 presidential campaign.
Earlier this week, as Breitbart News reported, the Biden administration announced that it would build 20 miles of wall along the southern border, which has been inundated with migrants ever since Biden won the 2020 election. Biden had mocked the wall as a “waste of money,” and “not a serious policy solution.” He also said, memorably, in August 2020: “There will not be another foot of wall constructed on my administration, number one.”
A planned joint interview with three Republican lawmakers vying for House speaker has been called off after the candidates opted to buck the televised affair amid criticism in the GOP.
The Fox News-hosted event, which was to have featured confirmed speaker candidates House Majority Leader Steve Scalise and Rep. Jim Jordan, along with Rep. Kevin Hern, who has not publicly announced his candidacy, has been canceled, Mr. Scalise’s office confirmed.
Mr. Hern, Oklahoma Republican, was the first of the trio to drop out of the event, saying that a televised joint interview was not the right forum for the battle for the gavel.
Denver's liberal government has asked officials at border towns to distribute fliers telling asylum seekers to stay away from the Colorado capital, after 21,000 new migrants arrived this year.
Like various liberal cities like Chicago and NYC, the Mile High city has been struggling with migrants being bused north by conservative governors trying to make a point about what they say are open-border Democratic policies. The city currently has about 2,510 migrants staying in temporary shelters and has spent about $26 million on the crisis.
Matthew Mueller, the executive director for the Office of Emergency Management, has asked officials in Brownsville, El Paso, Houston, and Dallas to let migrants know
President Joe Biden raised eyebrows again on Friday by using rambling analogy about dogs falling in lakes to blame the press for Americans' poor view of the economy.
The 80-year-old said reporters are 'not the happiest people in the world' and claimed the media is too focused on negative stories in a bizarre performance that included a long pause to regain his thoughts.
He was supposed to be celebrating the 336,000 jobs added to the economy in September in a report that far exceeded expectations.
Judge Aileen Cannon on Friday paused litigation in Jack Smith’s classified documents case as she decides whether to grant Trump’s motion to extend deadlines related to classified material.
Trump attorneys Chris Kise and Todd Blanche accused Jack Smith’s prosecutors of using dilatory tactics to slow-roll the discovery process and taking too long to turn over evidence. Blanche and Kise said the May trial date makes the schedule “unworkable,” according to the motion reviewed by The Gateway Pundit.
“On July 18, 2023, the Special Counsel’s Office represented to the Court that ‘all’ discovery would be available on ‘day one.’” Trump’s lawyers wrote.
CLAIM: President Joe Biden on Friday claimed that the American people know that they are better off financially than they were before his presidency.
“I think they know they’re better off financially than they were before. It’s a fact,” Biden said. (X Video) Verdict: False and false.
Biden is making two claims here. First, that the American people are better off than they were before his presidency. Second, that the American people know that they are better off.
Both are untrue.
A case of malaria has been confirmed in Arkansas and is the first locally acquired case in the state in at least 40 years.
The patient, who was not named, lives in Saline County and had not recently traveled out of the country.
The case makes Arkansas the fourth state to report a locally acquired case of the disease this year, in another sign the disease may be gaining a foothold in the US for the first time in two decades. The patient was also the tenth to be infected on US soil this year, after seven locally-acquired infections were detected in Florida and one each in Texas and Maryland —

Former Secretary of State and 2016 Democratic presidential nominee Hillary Clinton said Thursday on CNN’s “Primetime” she believed there needed to be a “formal deprogramming of the cult members” who support former President Donald Trump.
Clinton said, “You saw the number of Republicans who voted along with Democrats to keep the government open, so there’s clearly a common sense, sane part of the Republican caucus in the House. But I think they are intimidated. They oftentimes, you know, say and do things which they know better than to say or do. It will require us defeating those most extreme measures and the people who promote them
Trump: Not a great man
50 replies
Donald Trump is not a great man. His rhetoric, which has included denunciations of those who have served in the military (while he dodged the draft five times with a limp excuse about bone spurs) ought to disgust all but those who are in complete denial of the danger he would pose to the Constitution and the country should he be re-elected president. Humility is not part of his vocabulary and words mean something, especially when they reflect character. In the latest "indictment" of Trump's virulent rhetoric, his former chief of staff, John Kelly, issued a statement in which he says he witnessed Trump insulting wounded veterans and others.
Fox News will exclusively host and televise the upcoming debate for the House speakership, now that the gavel is up for grabs after Representative Kevin McCarthy was ousted in a historic Tuesday vote.
Bret Baier will moderate the debate between House Majority Leader Steve Scalise of Louisiana, Judiciary Committee chairman Jim Jordan of Ohio, and Representative Kevin Hern of Oklahoma on Monday in the Capitol, Punchbowl News first reported. The debate will not be open press, the publication said, which means reporters other than Baier will be barred from the room.
Fox is still determining whether the debate will be live or pre-taped.

The pope — or, rather, whichever committee of handlers dictates his public utterances — had some stern words recently for Westerners and their “irresponsible” lifestyles.
Via CNN (emphasis added):
Pope Francis has made his strongest statement yet on the accelerating climate crisis, pinning blame on big industries and world leaders as well as “iresponsible” Western lifestyles, in a blistering statement on Wednesday. (snip) “Some effects of the climate crisis are already irreversible, at least for several hundred years, such as the increase in the global temperature of the oceans, their acidification and the decrease of oxygen,” he wrote…
Liz Cheney is jumping into the fight over who will be the next Speaker of the House, and she's brought with her (a) desperate warning: Don't elect Rep. Jim Jordan to the position. (snip) How many times can you cry about "democracy" being in danger before people just tune you out? (snip) CHENEY: "Jim Jordan knew more about what Donald Trump had planned for January 6th than any other member of the House of Representatives. Jim Jordan was involved, was part of the conspiracy" (snip) She's like Uncle Rico still talking about how far he can throw a football. Is there any depth to Cheney at this point?

Burning down the House

Rep. Matt Gaetz, Florida Republican and psycho killer, led the smallest caucus in Congress this week across the aisle and into the lap of Democrats. He and his Suicide Caucus joined 208 Democrats to remove former House Speaker Kevin McCarthy from his post. What a day that was. So much for the so-called Hastert Rule that the Suicide Caucus claims to treasure so dearly. Requiring support from a majority of Republicans for floor action apparently applies only to Mr. McCarthy. Such slippery people. Annihilating the Hastert Rule is, you might say, the ultimate RINO move. These people are into making flippy-floppy, and doing it far, far, far better.
President Joe Biden’s nominee for the federal bench in Oregon dreams of a day when Supreme Court justices disclose their pronouns on legal rulings, a practice he says will show the federal judiciary’s "authentic commitment to equity and inclusion."
Mustafa Kasubhai, who currently serves as a federal magistrate, laid out his vision for the usage of pronouns in the judiciary in a 2021 essay, "Pronouns and Privilege." (snip)
In his essay, Kasubhai describes a telephone conference call with an out-of-state attorney. When Kasubhai pressed the lawyer to state his pronouns so the judge would not just assume them, the lawyer retorted: "I’m not interested; just go ahead and assume."
CNN commentator Adam Kinzinger said Friday on CNN’s “The Lead” that Rep. Jim Jordan (R-OH) was a “Christian nationalist” who is very dangerous. (snip) He (Kinzinger) continued, “The thing that you need to understand about Jim Jordan is he is a true believer, but he truly believes that the Democrats, or the left, is an enemy of America and he will do anything even extra constitutionally to defeat them. That is his genuine belief.”
He added, “I would put him in the camp of Christian nationalist where he believes that he is truly fighting the dark forces”

Claudia Morales watched as Brian Dowling “randomly” stabbed her lefty activist boyfriend, Ryan Carson, to death in the neo-hipster, ghetto-riffic Brooklyn neighborhood of Bedford-Stuyvesant.
(Snip) Carson left a legacy of Marxist hate on social media, even celebrating the death of Rush Limbaugh. His moll, Morales, has been photographed wearing an “ACAB” t-shirt (ACAB is an anagram for All Cops Are B**tards).
Though Morales didn’t run, scream, or call the police as her boyfriend was getting filleted, a group of his friends was quick to set up a GoFundMe page to procure funds for… themselves.
