Their annual Democrat “retreat” conclave last Thursday couldn’t have come with better timing. With deplorable patriots surrounding them on the beltway, D.C. progressives thought they could escape and try to regroup. Wednesday was “a chaotic night in the House” which “derailed their plans.”
Democrat meeting mayhem
Democrat lawmakers staggered in to Philadelphia around 2:30 a.m. on Thursday morning “after divisions within the party over a pandemic relief-related provision in a $1.5 trillion government funding bill.” DINO defectors sided with Republicans and wouldn’t let them have it.
The fight “forced them to cancel day one of the retreat.” They finally agreed to fund the government for a while longer but not until after they got rid of the useless pork. Now, they’re trying to figure out how to salvage something from the midterms. It looks pretty grim.
Most of the members are afraid to go home and face their Democrat constituents. Biden’s approval rating, even with liberals, is somewhere below “pond scum.” The last thing any of them want is an endorsement from him. They have better chances when they can get Donald Trump to yell at them.
When Pramila Jayapal emerged from the gloom of her Congressional Progressive Caucus on the morning of March 10, she “had to squint because it felt a little too bright for me.” Even bleary and bloodshot from the night before, “Jayapal was ready to discuss legislative priorities she feels will help the lawmakers retain seats.” They’ve been kicking around the pros and cons of super-glue versus epoxy to stick their butts where they are. Those are the best two chances.
“As you know, as the chair of the Congressional Progressive Caucus, we have been working hard on a number of different initiatives, including a slate of executive actions that we hope to be able to release next week.” As soon as they can figure out what they are.
Meanwhile, they tell the Democrat mob “we are continuing to work on the possibilities of legislation as they might exist, let’s put it that way.” Does that actually say anything?
Can you be specific?
Jaypal must have joined Nancy Pelosi for a glass of 90 proof tomato juice at breakfast. “We will not talk about ‘He who shall not be named‘ or ‘That which shall not be named,’ Build Back Better — it’s like Voldemort. We just don’t say those words, but we continue to work on their pieces of legislation.”
The unnamed dirty dastard can only be Joe Manchin. The Democrat scheme to spend our way out of bankruptcy went down in flames back in December.
Her district is so ultra progressive that the Democrat platform isn’t nearly radical enough for them. Her constituents are ready to light her condo on fire.
“They want to see you fighting for it, and I can tell you that all last year’s Progressive Caucus stood up and fought to leave nobody behind. We inspire a lot of people.” When Joe Biden starts babbling things like “fund the police” they go spastic.
Even without George Soros around, the Democrat party has no problem raising money. Throwing enough cash around to buy the election is their best hope. “Front-liners currently hold an $80 million cash advantage over their GOP opponents.”
They will need every penny. Republicans “have gone after Democrats on issues ranging from inflation and gas prices to the administration’s foreign policy decisions.” Let’s Go Brandon!
