Crowdpac, the crowdfunding site used for political campaigns, has suspended all of its accounts for Republican candidates, citing the values of the Republican Party, President Donald Trump, and all instances of “Trumpism” are not in line with the company’s own values.
The State Senate now has a date to return to the General Assembly building to finalize a biennial state budget, but it also needs to articulate a budget that it is willing to pass.
Basing a world view built on the allegories of a back street Dickensian London is nothing less than a childish, sheepheaded attempt to justify one’s own lackluster place in society, but completely fine for Teen Vogue as they romanticize Karl Marx.
An investigative report from The Hill outlines a new reality inside the Russian investigation. It tells the tale of a decade-old FBI operation that involved Mueller’s FBI, a secret Iranian mission, and a Russian billionaire, presenting a possible conflict of interest.
The U.S. will not step down from being a part of the Israeli-Palestinian negotiations, as “experts” say they have. Moving the embassy from Tel Aviv to Jerusalem shows that the U.S. is more a part of it than ever.
An extra $400 million from income tax payments could come surging into Virginia’s coffers from the federal tax overhaul signed last year, but state finance officials are not ready to trust the wave they say could disappear after summer’s end.
The National Republican Congressional Committee (NRCC) has released a new video entitled: “Jennifer Wexton Will Raise Your Taxes.” Built on the foundation of the NRCC’s ad targeting Nancy Pelosi about her proposed “roll back” of the Republican-led Tax Cuts and Jobs Act, it outlines Wexton’s plan of a congressional agenda of big taxes and big government spending.
Even Wexton does not refute the claims; she is completely on board with Pelosi, who claims she will take back the position of speaker if the Democrats gain control of the House of Representatives in November.
People have said she is a quintessential “tax and spend liberal,” a record she has proven in her years in the Virginia State Senate. At a recent appearance, she even said it out loud to the crowd of onlookers, “I’m a tax and spend liberal, right?”
Wexton says that the first thing she will do upon arriving in Washington next year will be to “roll back the tax cuts.” She plans on doing all of this despite the fact that her constituents in Loudoun County will greatly benefit from the federal tax overhaul.
As NRCC spokeswoman Maddie Anderson says, “Self-proclaimed tax and spend liberal Jennifer Wexton is right on message when it comes to walking lock-step with her role model, Nancy Pelosi. If she somehow fumbled her way to Congress, Wexton and Pelosi would be quite the tax-raising dynamic duo.”
As more businesses have dolled out bonuses that number one, two, and three thousand dollars each, raised their minimum wages, and have endeavored on one of the largest hiring sprees in memory, Wexton’s claims of a better America that means higher taxes is without evidence.
The reason why there is record-low unemployment – sitting at a stable 3.8 percent – is because companies are more in control of their profits.
However, in Wexton’s America, people have money shaken out of their pockets by the big liberal bullies who wish nothing more than to gain further control and spend the U.S. into oblivion.
