Sinema Fundraiser Will Include Groups Opposed to Social Spending Package

The only way Democrats are going to get their way and force through reconciliation is if EVERY Democrat in the Senate is on board.

Senator Joe Manchin (D-W.V.) was supposed to be the rock, but he recently stated that he would only go for a bill of around $1.5 trillion in additional spending.

Senator Sinema (D-AZ), who was instrumental in the smaller, bipartisan package, is another story altogether, and the news just got worse for Democrat leaders.

Fundraising with Anti-Social Spending

Most in this country would agree that our infrastructure has been ignored for far too long.

Even in our current financial state, most Americans would probably support a reasonable spending package, as long as it ONLY included infrastructure, not the new definition of infrastructure created by Democrats.

Sinema now seems to be drawing a line in the sand regarding what she would support, reportedly now holding a fundraiser with business groups that oppose social spending.

What is of particular interest here is that we know the bill is loaded with illegal immigrant-friendly legislation.

This is very much a problem for Arizona, as illegal immigration remains a concern for Arizonians, even though the state is more purple than red now.

This gives us a much better idea of where Sinema stands on this front and what she may possibly go for.

House Speaker Pelosi (D-CA) has hinted that she is ready to drop down from the $3.5 trillion already listed in the bill, but it is unlikely she is willing to come down as far as Sinema and Manchin would like.

That being the case, the reconciliation bill appears to be dead, which will create a significant problem for Biden.

Both sides get to claim victory in the $1.2 trillion package, but Biden will be dealt a significant blow if he cannot get the larger package passed.

That failure is likely to cost Democrats dearly in both the 2022 and 2024 elections.

GOP CHAIR TWEETS

A week ago, Joe Biden told Americans that prices aren’t actually high.

But the numbers don’t lie.

Inflation is up 14.4% since Biden took office.

And all the president can offer are more lies.

Inflation ⬆️ more than expected.

Overall CPI: +6.4% y/y
Fuel Oil: +27.7%
Electricity: +11.9%
Groceries: +11.3%
Chicken +10.5%
Milk: +11%
Eggs: +70.1%
Bread: +14.9%
Potatoes: +12.4%
Baby Food: +10%
Airline Fares: +25.6%
Real Average Hourly Earnings: -1.8%

Year-over-year real wages have been negative for 22 months - ever since Biden forced through his $1.9 trillion "stimulus."

That's a wages recession for American workers.
