Senate Democrats just got some wonky procedural news that has some pretty big implications for President Joe Biden’s agenda.


On Monday night, the Senate parliamentarian — an in-house rules expert — determined that Democrats would be able to do a third budget reconciliation bill this year, a massive development that gives lawmakers more room to pass legislation without Republican support.

Already, Democrats had the ability to do two budget reconciliation bills: one focused on fiscal year 2021 and one focused on fiscal year 2022. Unlike most other bills, budget measures can pass with just 51 votes, instead of 60, which means Democrats are able to usher through the legislation they want if all 50 members of their caucus are onboard. (With the American Rescue Plan, for instance, 50 Democrats were able to approve the $1.9 trillion package as part of the FY2021 budget bill, even though no Republicans backed it.)

“The Parliamentarian has advised that a revised budget resolution may contain budget reconciliation instructions,” said a spokesperson for Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer in a statement. “This confirms the Leader’s interpretation of the Budget Act and allows Democrats additional tools to improve the lives of Americans if Republican obstruction continues.”

The Great American Build! Build Back Better!

Now we need a large scale investment in good high-quality jobs to fully recover and tackle the interrelated crises of climate, racial and economic injustice.

This is known as The Great Reset internationally, and is a pipe dream of the globalists and those born into wealth like Prince Charles of the British Royal family. Supporters of this like Charles have never had to work like me and you and have little understanding of it, so SSG I ask you, when you gonna wake up and smell what you are shoveling?

You are not one of them and probably never will be.

The GAO (Government Accountability Office) is investigating why he stopped wall construction, saying he overstepped his boundaries. In their report so far, it is shown that halting construction, and the ensuing crisis at the border, is costing American taxpayers no less than 6 MILLION dollars a day.

Good Job Joe, you fucking idiot!

Good Job Joe, you fucking idiot!

the monies were allocated for the wall to be built. He stopped that and was looking at moving the monies to his pet projects. THAT could land him in hot water due to the fact the CONGRESS approved those appropriations.

he needs to just go back to the basement with Kneepads and play Mario Carts, I heard he made it to level 2 in four months .... kids can make it to level 10 in less time.

In the USA, "Build Back Better" or the "Great Reset" is going to be funded by increasing taxes on corporations from a too low 21% to 28%. The tax rate was 35% under President Obama. Further revenues will be found by closing tax havens enjoyed by the rich and ending subsidies for fossil fuels. All of these infrastructure improvements are incredibly popular to the average American.

President Biden has a once in a generation opportunity to improve the lives of ordinary citizens by forcing all corporations to pay their fair share of taxes. No longer will huge corporations pay $0.00 in taxes.

Why do you feel like the wealthy should pay more than you and I? Personally I don't think they should be punished for being wealthy. But I'll concede that's just the way it is. In the 1950's and 1960's, the rich paid a top rate of 91%. Do you think that's too much and why or why not?
