The Morning Report — 7/ 2 /25

ArchieBunkerHill.jpg

Good morning kids. And so this so-called Big Beautiful Bill has passed the Senate. No I did not read this phone book-sized bill, nor if I had would I have had the time to go through it to see what's really what. Given the nature of the Leviathan of a bureaucracy that we have been saddled with at least as far back as FDR's New Deal which has been metastasizing to this day, regardless of who sat in the Oval Office and which party controlled Congress.

With that admission, I still feel that perhaps a corollary to the revolting 'We have to shred the Constitution in order to preserve the Constitution: We have to borrow and spend trillions in order to stop borrowing and spending trillions?

So, okay, Trump so far scores a political "win" thanks mostly to VP J.D. Vance casting a tie-breaking vote because 3 RINOs decided to cross the aisle and vote No on the bill.

Yeah, I didn't read the bill but here are the Cliff's notes:

Chuck Schemer retitled the bill, but they kept all the waste, fraud and grift, added a couple dozen extra "This Page Left Intentionally Blank" pages, and changed the dedication from Satan to Paul Ryan, and Chuck Schumer's Mohel and Trichologist.

So we absolutely had to pass this monstrosity because MAGA!

RUFKM?!

The Senate began what is known as a vote-a-rama on Monday morning — a rapid series of votes on dozens of proposed amendments to Trump’s big, beautiful spending bill. As of 5:00 a.m. on Tuesday, the vote-a-rama was still ongoing. One of the most disappointing results came on a measure seeking to block illegal immigrants from receiving Medicaid benefits, which failed by a vote of 56–44. Senate Parliamentarian Elizabeth MacDonough had previously determined that the “Byrd Rule” applied in this case. Because a reconciliation bill — a type of budget bill — requires only a simple majority of 51 votes for passage, the Byrd Rule imposes restrictions on what provisions can be included. Measures deemed to be “extraneous” to the budget must secure a supermajority of 60 votes to pass. As a result, the proposal to remove undocumented immigrants from Medicaid failed by just four votes. . . If it weren’t for the Senate Parliamentarian’s interference, this vote would’ve succeeded with just 51 votes. pic.twitter.com/7eztg2RicE

Yeah, we can blame this Cunning Runt parliamentarian (transpose the C and the R) all we want, but the fact remains, the Wetbacks get our money when they should be running "Serpentine!" in Alligator Alcatraz. Meh, keep the Medicaid, send Murkowski, Collins and Thune there. Or strap them to a MOP and drop them onto the FOrdow Foundation!

Look, God bless President Trump and for the miracle of his victory last November and for his amazing accomplishments here and abroad in just six months. But if I'm out of line about the criticism of this bill, I'm open to any reasonable argument as to why.


And what's up with the President's position on illegal aliens vis a vis farm and hospitality workers? They get dispensation because why?

It was a great decision on his part, to show mercy to farmers, whose crops would be rotting in the fields in short order if every farm worker had to be in pristine immigration status. Crops need to be harvested immediately or there are no crops. Like food shortages? No farmers, no food.

Yeah, I get it. While I suppose it does avoid temporary short-term pain as well as political blowback if shortages mess up a booming economy. But then again, the whole point as he and others have been touting is the creation of jobs for Americans. No pain no gain. It also allows his enemies to paint him as a hypocrite and ridicule a key component of the MAGA agenda. Perhaps to be charitable it's a strategic retreat.

Elsewhere, Los Angeles is continuing its devolution with anti-ICE demonstrations that Karen Bass-tard is doing nothing about and/or encouraging. And we did capture an Iranian spy scoping out Jewish targets for mass murder attacks, along with some Chi-COm spies.

Meanwhile, the rise of this Mamdani momzer in NYC is causing the relatively sane among the Democrat base in NYC and nationally to be freaking out. Why, I have no idea, because the conventional wisdom is that this maniac is where the Democrat Party has been heading for decades. The objection is not necessarily his policies and worldview, it's the fact that he's open and honest about it that is causing the Dems to freak out. They win when they pretend to be as American as apple pie, hot dogs and Chevrolet (and can make their election thievery look kosher).

Whose Side Are Democrats Really On? . . . Cheering for the enemy


It's not that the Democrats are on the side of the enemy, It's that the Democrats have been America's greatest enemy for two centuries and counting.

Mamdani? Everywhere you turn it's Mamdanis all the way down.

Boston Muslim Illegal Alien Councilwoman Replaces July 4th Before Going to Prison. . . July in Boston will now be Cabo Verde Independence Month.


BUT . . . there is some good news to report, here's a smattering:

for example on the illegal alien front,


as well as the religious freedom front

And the Second Amenment...

and the transexual madness front.

Looks like Will Thomas had to tuck his tail, instead of his John Thomas and head for the hills at UPenn,
