Tariffs will be unable to be debated

So in the budget bill there is a line that states that the Tariff’s can not be debated. Now remember under our Constitution it is Congress that has the right to tariff. Although they have relinquished that right more and more to the Executive branch. But now they want to absolve themselves all together. I guess some people do want a Dictator.

Interesting timing for this to become public.

The public is revolting as they say in France.

Yeah, I dont believe this only relates to tariffs.

If this goes through, everything the president declares through national emergency won’t be debated by Congress until 1/3/2026. Tariffs might be the least of our worries. Bonkers.

We are at 52 days right now. The record is 53 days. Can Congress get this passed tonight?

The country has been circling the drain since Reagan was elected in 1980.

I think they are trying to put us into a recession so they have more time to work on pulling us out and then they are hoping the economy will become all rosy in time for the next election. Of course this is nothing new, many Presidents have done that. They call it the presidential cycle.

When all the unions didn’t stand up for the air traffic controllers, you saw the demise of unions.

Thing is, seems TIG is getting his manhood tangled up in the tariff issue. He wants everyone to surrender to him. Dissent is not tolerated.

Simply can not happen without a corporate tax hike.

So kiss that notion goodbye.
