Rep. Andy Biggs: Democrats rigged the House rules to undermine GOP victories

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi, D-Calif., and the Democrats have proposed rules of the House of Representatives that will emasculate the Republican wins over the past two years. The agenda of the new Democrat committee leaders will result in further divisiveness in Congress and the nation. Consequently, political discourse will continue to devolve and individual freedom will be attacked.

Democratic leaders are using the rules package to lay the ground work for higher taxes, frivolous investigations, and prevention of advancing funds for a border wall and defense spending. They have prepared to defend any changes in Obamacare. Democrats will foist crazy climate change policies on the public — just as we are seeing rejection of those ideas by people around the globe. They will also automatically increase our national debt without the transparency of debate and voting by Congress.

They propose a prohibition against advance appropriations that will prevent funding being allocated for future border wall costs. This will also be a problem as our military budgets have to plan their spending for several years ahead. This is irresponsible and dangerous, in both instances, to our national security.

I can't believe what a clawing, whining, underhanded mass of boobs the Party has become.

Both Parties . If anything current policy is dissolving Federal and Executive policy and privilege and further choking and dividing the voters in the Republic that think it is some sort of Gospel democracy.As the divide of that haves and haves not broadens..................you have to wonder if your security is actually threatened by immigrants. People that have don't care and the rest are no better than them.

So how did the Democrats changing the rules in the Senate to a majority only vote for Judicial appointments go? The so called Nuclear Option? Boy did they howl when it came back and bit them with Trump's judicial nominations. Democrats never learn in their blind quest for absolute power.
