AP Photo/Alex Brandon While Republicans rushed to help Biden pass his infrastructure bill, the rest of the president’s agenda remains in limbo. Nancy Pelosi forced the “Build Back Better” bill through the House last week, but it is essentially dead on arrival in the Senate. That didn’t stop Democrats from celebrating as if they’d just liberated Europe, but I digress.
The problem for the White House remains. How do they get their massive spending bill through moderate holdouts like Joe Manchin and Kyrsten Sinema? And on the other side, you have Bernie Sanders, who is expressing disapproval of Pelosi’s inclusion of a massive tax cut for the wealthy (that just so happens to benefit residents in California, New York, and New Jersey the most).
Well, Democrats think they have a plan, and it’s coming via a desperate, insulting shift in messaging. They really think most Americans are stupid. Will they be proven right? Democrats zero in on cost of living to sell Biden agenda: memo https://t.co/n0ID2lTTdV pic.twitter.com/Iu1kpM1xlh — The Hill (@thehill) November 23, 2021 Democrats running in competitive Senate races are being urged to zero in on the issue of the cost of living in an effort to sell President Biden ‘s Build Back Better legislative agenda, according to a polling memo released exclusively to The Hill. The polling memo for the Democratic Senatorial Campaign Committee found that the message was one of the top-performing messages of the over 360 messages tested by Senate Democrats so far in this cycle. “Democrats say you should support [candidate] because they’re proposing legislation to reduce the cost of living for all Americans,” the message in the memo read. “They say that their plans lower the cost of health care, child care, eldercare, and cut taxes for millions of working families. They’re making sure that their plans are fully paid for by making the wealthy and big corporations pay their fair share – but no one making less than $400,000 will pay any more taxes.” You almost have to admire the brazenness here. The reason the cost of living is so high right now is […]

They’re Trying to Shut Us Down
Over the last several months, I’ve lost count of how many times the powers-that-be have tried to shut us down. They’ve sent hackers at us, forcing us to take extreme measures on web security. They sent attorneys after us, but thankfully we’re not easily intimidated by baseless accusations or threats. They’ve even gone so far as to make physical threats. Those can actually be a bit worrisome but Remington has me covered.
For us to continue to deliver the truth that Americans need to read and hear, we ask you, our amazing audience, for financial assistance. We have a Giving Fuel page to help us pay the bills. It’s brand new so don’t be discouraged by the lack of donations there. It’s a funny reality that the fewer the donations that have been made, the less likely people are willing to donate to it. One would think this is counterintuitive, but sometimes people are skeptical because they think that perhaps there’s a reason others haven’t been donating. In our situation, we’re just getting started so please don’t be shy if you have the means to help.
Thank you and God bless!
