Pelosi Slips Unanimous Consent Requirement Into Dems’ $2,000 Stimulus Bill, Likely Rigging It To Fail

Democrat House stimulus bill deemed certain to fail because of Pelosi's unanimous consent requirement, making it an ultimately hollow and symbolic gesture

News broke Wednesday morning that congressional House Democrats have finally yielded to President Trump’s demands to increase the size of stimulus checks to the American people from $600 to $2,000, with Speaker Pelosi receiving praise from Democrats for floating a $2,000 bill that will be up for vote on Thursday Dec. 24.

What many Pelosi supporters and media outlets have failed to note, however, is that the House Speaker chose to require unanimous consent for the bill, meaning only one neoliberal Republican or Democrat objection would be needed to stop the legislation dead in its tracks.

The move may be calculated to achieve the dual objectives of sidestepping the President’s demand for $2,000 checks, while at the same time providing an excuse for Democrats to blame the bill’s failure on Republicans and by extension, the President himself.

House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy has indicated that House Republicans will not agree to unanimously pass Pelosi’s bill, which appears to have been introduced in a symbolic effort one-up the President in the eyes of the media without actually intending to raise the amount in the stimulus checks.

President Trump kept his promise to veto the bloated National Defense Authorization Act on Wednesday, which would have given billions to foreign powers while providing a paltry $600 for Americans in the enclosed “COVID relief bill”:

National File can confirm that President Donald Trump followed through on his Tuesday night promise to veto the National Defense Authorization Act if it was not updated to cut foreign spending bloat and place more revenue in the hands of the American people, using his lawful presidential powers to block the bill on Wednesday.

Big Tech Writes Its Ticket to the White House

Silicon Valley's allies are filling up the Biden administration. A big payoff is sure to follow.

Silicon Valley played an integral role in propelling Joe Biden to the White House. He raked in uncounted millions from liberal tech billionaires such as Netflix's Reed Hastings, LinkedIn's Reid Hoffman, and Apple heiress Laurene Powell Jobs; their employees shelled out $5 million more.

As Biden takes office, the techies want what they paid for. Reuters reports that executives at top firms like Amazon, Google, Facebook, and Microsoft are gunning for jobs at the Departments of Defense, State, Justice, and Commerce and also eyeing influential posts at the Federal Trade Commission and beyond.

They want two things: lucrative federal contracts and less scrutiny than they’ve gotten over the past four years, as President Donald Trump has made their bias against conservatives front-page news. The Department of Justice's antitrust inquiry into big tech has already garnered bipartisan backing, including from a group of state attorneys general who have filed their own suit.

A Biden administration could make all of that go away. And it could ignore altogether these firms' obsequious dealings with Communist China.

That explains the rush to fill seats: It’s unlikely that the techies moving into the Biden administration will check their business relationships at the door. Each hire is another pressure point for Silicon Valley’s most powerful to exploit.

This is hardly a problem unique to Democrats, you just hear about it less when they’re in the White House. This sort of revolving door was considered outrageous in the George W. Bush administration, when Democrats and the media harped relentlessly on Dick Cheney’s ties to Halliburton and charged that he was in the pocket of Big Oil. They raised the same ruckus when Trump appointed Exxon chief Rex Tillerson as his first secretary of state.

These unseemly connections aren’t new for Democrats. Google employees averaged a meeting a week with that Obama White House, influencing a president who "routinely pushed policy that pleased the tech-savvy."

We Support Karl Marx Not Biden, Say Armed Michigan Protesters

An armed group of protesters carrying Antifa and Black Lives Matter gear denied supporting President-Elect Joe Biden. Instead, the Lansing, Michigan, protesters said they support Karl Marx.

Video tweeted by independent journalist Brendan Gutenschwager shows a group of protesters, some of whom were armed with rifles, facing off against Trump supporters who gathered for a Christmas celebration. When asked why they support Joe Biden, one responded “I don’t support Joe Biden.”

The person replied, “Who do you support?”

“Karl Marx,” came the response.

Trump supporters gathered in the Michigan capital for a Christmas parade and anti-lockdown protest.
