Will GOP Stand Up to Democrats' Government 'Shutdown' Scare Tactics? Probably Not

Hope and pray Republicans will resist to pass the so called omnibus spending bill!

Let the incoming U.S. Congress deal with the budget!

"A Wall Street Journal editorial notes, “Democrats want to stuff all 12 of Congress’s annual overdue spending bills into a giant ‘omnibus’ to finance the government through September 2023. According to their media note-takers, the failure to pass an omnibus bill will result in one of two scenarios: a government shutdown, or the ruin of federal agencies forced to maintain spending at current levels.” ...
GOP members ... A majority of their caucus voted last week to restore earmarks, which they once eliminated
giving us a $31 trillion debt and counting. ...
Where are the Republican leaders who will teach Americans we can’t go on like this? Ronald Reagan was the last ... president to warn against debt.  ...

The Founders understood human nature and its tendency to excess in the absence of controls. In 1793, George Washington said, “”No pecuniary consideration is more urgent, than the regular redemption and discharge of the public debt: on none can delay be more injurious, or an economy of time more valuable.”

John Adams put it more succinctly: “There are two ways to enslave a nation. One is by the sword. The other is by debt.” ..."

Will GOP Stand Up to Democrats' Government 'Shutdown' Scare Tactics? There is little Republicans and Democrats in Congress agree on these days, but spending (and borrowing) money is as nonpartisan as it gets.
