Well, finally it might just happen. Congress is on the verge of passing a Covid-19 relief bill. The bill has passed the house in a bi-partisan agreement consisting of some 6,000 pages in the amount in excess of $800B. Not quite what could have been agreed on some six months ago if it were not for the attempts to get rid of President Trump. House hammer-head Pelosi pulled off her best get rid of Trump move since the 2016 election. As she publically admitted, the timing of getting a bill passed was contingent upon the results of the 2020 presidential election. Her reasoning was calculated and cold-blooded, as she put hundreds of thousands of our citizens into a financial bind. As many watched their life's work, their savings, businesses evaporate as the governments prevented them from conducting their lives.
She (Pelosi), put team politics above the needs of our people, ahead of our national interests. So what do our people get in terms of economic aid? We get an aid bill some 2 Trillion $$'s less than what was offered to her six months prior to the election. Not much help for the failing businesses, the jobs that will never return. Come to think of it 80 billion dollars of the 800 in the new bill comes from the 150 Billion that Pelosi would not release from the last aid package. In the old style of math that would make this new package only 650B. The good news, for the career politicians beneath her gavel, is that they get a forty thousand dollar annual raise in their pay. The real capper to this travesty is a 6,000 page bill that sneaks in billions in PORK. Tell me how much the kinder gentler Donkey clan cares about our people. Pick up the scraps people.
Lord I pray that you would grant our people the gift of discernment and that you would expose those who unfairly weight the scales of truth. I pray that you would expose those who hold positions in governance who do not have our country’s best interests at heart. I pray that you put in place leaders that will serve your purpose rather than their own. I pray that you put in place leaders that will heal the anger and the hatred that has taken hold in our nation.
Most of all Lord I ask that your will be done.
