SOTN Editor’s Note:<\/strong>
\nSOTN has no affiliation whatsoever with either side of the Democrat-Republican counterfeit coin. \u00a0Nevertheless, both sides of this bogus duopoly beg for serious scrutiny during these times of outright betrayal of the American people. \u00a0When so much felonious treason is being committed by all three branches of the U.S Federal Government — \u00a0Executive, Legislative and Judicial — it becomes critical to expose their misdeeds and wrongdoings before the the nation literally crashes and burns.<\/p>\n

The article posted below illustrates exactly why the United States of America may be very close to a “crash and burn scenario”. \u00a0It isn’t only the staggering amount of raw pork in the most recent spending bill, it is the process by which the current Speaker of the House, Paul Ryan, promoted the horrendous omnibus bill.<\/p>\n

Ryan was supposed to be the new guardian of the public purse, yet he proved to be no better than his predecessors. \u00a0Not only did the spending packages add considerably to the already bloated defense spending, in the aggregate they will contribute to an exploding national debt that is fast approaching $19 trillion.<\/p>\n

\n

The $1.1 trillion spending bill includes $548 billion in defense spending, $518 billion in non-defense spending, and $73.7 billion in additional funds for the Pentagon for ongoing combat operations.

That such an outrageous spending bill was passed on Ryan’s watch is almost too difficult to even fathom in light of his recent elevation by fiscal conservatives who were duped by the transparent RINO. \u00a0Speaker Ryan is actually the stealth candidate who has been prepared over decades to project a conservative facade. \u00a0In fact he is the ultimate RINO despite so much financial rhetoric. \u00a0Cast as a budget wonk in the House, Ryan is nothing but a snake oil salesman for the globalist cabal who really run the show.<\/p>\n

If any single act will define Paul Ryan’s term(s) as Speaker of the House, this woeful spending bill failure is it. \u00a0He just undermined what little confidence many had falsely placed in him. \u00a0How such a betrayal occurred so close to the historic political lynching of John Boehner, God only knows. \u00a0Nonetheless, as the old saying goes:<\/p>\n

\n

“Fool me once, shame on you; fool me twice, shame on me.”<\/b><\/span><\/p>\n<\/blockquote>\n

Clearly, there is now a LOT of shame to go around the entire House of Representatives<\/p>\n

Conservatives Seething Over Spending Bill: Republicans ‘Betrayed’<\/h1>\n

NEWSMAX<\/p>\n

Angry Republican lawmakers and conservatives are howling about the massive spending bill signed into law Friday \u2013 slamming the party’s leadership for pushing through a “bad deal” that’ll only anger voters “fed up with the Washington cartel.”<\/span><\/p>\n

While President Barack Obama and congressional leaders \u2013 including newly minted House Speaker Paul Ryan \u2013 defended the bipartisan deal<\/b><\/span><\/a> hiking spending across government and extending a host of special interest tax breaks, critics sounded a starkly different note.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I think this omnibus was a betrayal of the men and women who elected us,” Republican presidential hopeful Sen. Ted Cruz said Friday.<\/span><\/p>\n

“I think this omnibus was a betrayal of the men and women who elected us. It was Republican leadership playing Santa Claus to the lobbyists \u2026 and the special interests, and it’s why people are fed up with the Washington cartel.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Alabama GOP Sen. Jeff Sessions echoed Cruz’s portrayal of the deal as a “betrayal” of the trust conservative voters put in GOP leaders last year, adding that Congress should have at the very least reigned in Obama’s refugee resettlement plan.<\/span><\/p>\n

“There is a reason that GOP voters are in open rebellion,” Sessions told The Washington Times<\/b><\/span><\/a>.<\/span><\/p>\n

Louisiana GOP Rep. John Fleming, in a radio interview prior to his “no” vote on the deal, <\/span><\/p>\n

derided the legislation<\/b><\/a><\/span> as “a laundry list of things that are not on it… and things that shouldn’t be in it,” calling it a “bad deal.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“We could have gone to the mat on it,” he said. “[Speaker] Paul [Ryan] kind of threw down his weapons and decided not to fight on this. That’s what everyone’s so angry about\u2026”<\/span><\/p>\n

The spending deal combines $1.14 trillion in new spending next year and $680 billion in tax cuts over the coming decade. It also fully funds many of Obama’s initiatives, including Obamacare, Planned Parenthood, sanctuary cities, climate change, refugee resettlement programs \u2014 and provides for an increase in foreign-worker visas.<\/span><\/p>\n

In addition, a 40-year ban on oil exports would be lifted with the law \u2014 something long sought by Republicans.<\/span><\/p>\n

Former Arkansas Gov. Mike Huckabee, another GOP presidential primary contender, argued Republicans got so little because “we\u2019ve got a very weak leadership going on in the House and Senate.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“I\u2019m sorry, I thought they were going to do better, but I\u2019m ashamed of them,” the former Arkansas governor told “The Hugh Hewitt Show”<\/b><\/span><\/a> in an interview. “I\u2019m mad at them. <\/span><\/p>\n

“I just felt like that they capitulated on virtually everything of great substance,” he said. “Basically, the Democrats had the banquet \u2014 and what we got to do was go eat up the crumbs that were left under the table at the feet of the Democrats once they got finished gorging themselves on all the food that [President Barack] Obama wanted.”<\/span><\/p>\n

Huckabee told Hewitt the lift on oil exports wasn’t good enough.<\/span><\/p>\n

“Republicans basically got nothing that said conservatives are the majority in the House and Senate,” he said. “”You can say ‘Okay, well, we\u2019re going to export oil.’ Well, that’s terrific. We should have been doing that anyway.<\/span><\/p>\n

Arizona Republican Sen. John McCain, Senate Armed Services Committee chairman, also slammed the deal, calling it a last-minute mess full of \u201cwasteful, unnecessary, and inappropriate pork-barrel projects,” Military Times reports.<\/b><\/span><\/a> <\/span><\/p>\n

In a blistering analysis by Breitbart News<\/b><\/a><\/span>, Ryan’s “first major legislative achievement” was critiqued as a “total and complete sell-out of the American people masquerading as an appropriations bill.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“What may prove most discouraging of all to Americans is that recent reports reveal that conservatives in the so-called House Freedom Caucus are praising Ryan even as he permanently locks in these irreversible and anti-American immigration policies,” Breitbart writes.<\/span><\/p>\n

And radio talk-show icon Rush Limbaugh accused Republicans<\/b><\/span><\/a> of selling the nation “down the river again” with the legislation. <\/span><\/p>\n

Pete Sepp, president of the National Taxpayers Union, told the Sinclair Broadcast Group <\/b><\/span><\/a><\/span>one aspect of the deal stood out as the “worst.”<\/span><\/p>\n

“The single worst part about the omnibus is that it’s going to continue the policy of breaking spending caps that congress had agreed to previously,” he said.<\/span><\/p>\n

And that aspect was a deal breaker for Pennsylvania GOP Rep. Scott Perry.<\/span><\/p>\n

“For me it was a no vote,” he told the outlet. “We broke the budget caps; we’re breaking the bank for the American taxpayer.”<\/span><\/p>\n

The pundits weighed in too, including Vox editor-in-chief Ezra Klein.<\/span><\/p>\n

Conservative Virginia Rep. Dave Brat, a former college teacher, says Ryan deserves an “F” <\/b><\/span><\/a>on his first budget bill.<\/span><\/p>\n
