Key Democrat's Threat Makes Perfect Case for Why Republicans Must Retake the House in November
2022-08-13
[REDSTATE] If there were ever a clearer red-flag warning why the Democrat majority in the House of Representatives must be unceremoniously kicked to the curb in the November midterm elections, I cannot recall it. But I am surprised that a key Democrat just purposely issued a beauty — for multiple reasons.

Democratic Rep. Richard Neal of Massachusetts, the powerful chairman of the House Boodle Central, suggested that the House would increase tax rates if his party remains in power following the upcoming midterm elections this fall, according to a congressional news hound.

"I do think there’s a chance here to address some fundamental tax reform issues," Neal said.

Incidentally, ever notice how Democrats use buzzwords and phrases like " tax reform," "invest," "fair share," and other nicey-nicey sounding ideas, solely for the purpose of exploiting and pandering to the left, when in reality, they mean "tax increases," "spending more taxpayer money and/or increasing the national debt," and "sticking to the rich"? And rank-and-file Democrat voters eat it up, every time.

The late great comedian George Carlin said it best: "Never underestimate the power of stupid people in large groups." The Democrat Party has known — and exploited — that reality for more than six decades.

According to Eric Wasson, a congressional news hound for Bloomberg News, Neal said the Democrats will attempt to raise both corporate and individual tax rates in 2023.

#3  Assuming the house and senate flip in November, the Pubs should play that favorite dem game, "deny a quorum."

See how tough the congressional PD is outside the beltway.
