With Congressional Democrats backed into a corner over their $3.5 trillion economic stimulus due to infighting within their own ranks , senior party leaders said on Sunday that they will likely need to scale it back in order to reach party consensus. Sen. Joe Manchin (D-WV) refuses to support Democrats’ $3.5T economic stimulus On Sunday, House Budget Committee Chairman John Yarmuth (D-KY) told “Fox News Sunday” that the bill’s top line number “will be somewhat less than $3.5 trillion,” adding that Biden’s economic agenda will likely drag into October. On Fox, Budget Cmte chair Yarmuth says social spending bill “will be somewhat less than $3.5 trillion remember that’s over 10 years..we’re probably going to slip past the September 27 date sometime into into early October would be my best guess. — Chad Pergram (@ChadPergram) September 19, 2021 Yarmuth’s warnings were echoed by Rep. James Clyburn, the third-ranking House Democrat, who told CNN ‘s “State of the Union”:
“So it may be $3.5 (trillion), it may be really close to that or maybe closer to something else. So I think that we ought to really focus on the American people to think about what takes to get us in a good place and then let the numbers take care of themselves.” We are working hard to finish the Build Back Better act and have a successful vote on the Bipartisan Infrastructure bill by September 27. pic.twitter.com/wWTAl6taGp — James E. Clyburn (@WhipClyburn) September 19, 2021 Clyburn also suggested that a House vote on the $550B infrastructure bill could also be delayed . Clyburn says the obvious to @jaketapper : infrastructure vote could be delayed. pic.twitter.com/jTgP2VjVOU — Jake Sherman (@JakeSherman) September 19, 2021 As Reuters notes, Democrats are also scrambling to raise the $28 trillion federal debt ceiling – which Clyburn suggested Democrats may be forced to ‘go it alone’ in order to accomplish (via reconciliation), as Senate GOP leader Mitch McConnell (KY) has said his party won’t support the increase – even though the US Treasury has warned that it will exhaust its cash and borrowing capacity in October.

Will America-First News Outlets Make it to 2023?
Things are looking grim for conservative and populist news sites.
There’s something happening behind the scenes at several popular conservative news outlets. 2021 was bad, but 2022 is proving to be disastrous for news sites that aren’t “playing ball” with the corporate media narrative. It’s being said that advertisers are cracking down, forcing some of the biggest ad networks like Google and Yahoo to pull their inventory from conservative outlets. This has had two major effects. First, it has cooled most conservative outlets from discussing “taboo” topics like Pandemic Panic Theater, voter fraud, or The Great Reset. Second, it has isolated those ad networks that aren’t playing ball.
Certain topics are anathema for most ad networks. Speaking out against vaccines or vaccine mandates is a certain path to being demonetized. Highlighting voter fraud in the 2020 and future elections is another instant advertising death penalty. Throw in truthful stories about climate change hysteria, Critical Race Theory, and the border crisis and it’s easy to understand how difficult it is for America-First news outlets to spread the facts, share conservative opinions, and still pay the bills.
Without naming names, I have been told of several news outlets who have been forced to either consolidate with larger organizations or who have backed down on covering certain topics out of fear of being “canceled” by the ad networks. I get it. This is a business for many of us and it’s not very profitable. Those of us who do this for a living are often barely squeaking by, so loss of additional revenue can often mean being forced to make cuts. That means not being able to cover the topics properly. Its a Catch-22: Tell the truth and lose the money necessary to keep telling the truth, or avoid the truth and make enough money to survive. Those who have chosen survival simply aren’t able to spread the truth properly.
We will never avoid the truth. The Lord will provide if it is His will. Our job is simply to share the facts, spread the Gospel, and educate as many Americans as possible while exposing the forces of evil.
To those who have the means, we ask that you please donate. We have options available now, but there is no telling when those options will cancel us. We have our GivingFuel page. There have been many who have been canceled by PayPal, but for now it’s still an option. Your generosity is what keeps these sites running and allows us to get the truth to the masses. We’ve had great success in growing but we know we can do more with your assistance.
Thank you, and God Bless!
