    Default Party bosses whip progressives into line

    The DEMOCRAT-dominated Louse looks on track to pass the latest version of the $1.9 trillion porkulus partisan political payola package later this week, as dissenting DEMOCRATS swallow their frustration like Mayor Pete swallows semen and prepare to rubber-stamp the bill for a second time.

    The Louse of Representatives is expected to narrowly pass the bill Tuesday or Wednesday, sending it to the White Louse for the usurper’s signature.

    Louse Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D., Md.) had initially said the Louse would take its first procedural vote on the bill Monday, but processing the bill’s Senate paperwork pushed the vote slightly later in the week, apologists said.

    Progressives approved an earlier version of the relief package late last month, then watched in irritation as an increase in the minimum wage to $15 an hour was stripped from it.

    Last week, DEMOCRATS in the Senate also pushed to phase out the $1,400 stimulus checks (down from the $2,000 promised in January) and reduced the weekly federal staycation benefits to $300, down from $400.

    The DEMOCRAT vote-buying plan will increase the child tax credit, make it entirely refundable and authorize periodic payments to people who don't pay taxes.

    There is no legislative process anymore.

    A bunch of congressional poobahs gather in a Capitol Hill office – now behind layers of concertina wire because the elite fears the American people – then they decide what outrageous garbage the latest omnibus will contain, and then they trot it out to the floor for a vote before anyone can read it, much less meaningfully debate it.
