Racial and gender preferences included in Biden's law were ruled to be in violation of the 14th Amendment's equal protection clause.
Biden's racist and sexist provisions discriminated against Americans.
Biden promised to unify the country. What a crock!

Glenn Grothman, Stacey Plaskett, and Black Lives Matter

U.S. Virgin Islands Congressional non-voting delegate Stacey Plaskett accused Rep. Glenn Grothman of being racist because he told the truth about Black Lives Matter, an unapologetically Marxist organization.

Wisconsin Congressman Glenn Grothman didn’t mince words when I asked him about a Democrat colleague’s allegations of racism against him. https://t.co/94OSbDgp6Q
— Dan O'Donnell (@DanODonnellShow) March 11, 2021

From MSN:

In speaking against President Joe Biden's $1.9 trillion Covid-19 relief plan, Wisconsin GOP Rep. Glenn Grothman argued on the House floor Wednesday that the expansion to earned income tax credit for single workers would penalize married individuals.
"I bring it up, because I know the strength that Black Lives Matter had in this last election. I know it's a group that doesn't like the old-fashioned family," said Grothman, who is White. "I'm disturbed that we have another program here in which we're increasing the marriage penalty."
Plaskett, a non-voting delegate who represents the Virgin Islands, who rose to speak in favor of Biden's Covid bill, instead spoke out strongly against Grothman's accusations.
"How dare you, how dare you say that Black Lives Matter, Black people, do not understand old-fashioned families?" Plaskett said. "Despite some of the issues, some of the things that you have put forward that I've heard out of your mouth in the Oversight Committee, in your own district, we have been able to keep our families alive for over 400 years, and the assault on our families to not have Black lives or not even have Black families."
"How dare you say that we are not interested in families in the Black community? That is outrageous, that should be stricken down, she added.
...Plaskett told CNN's Erin Burnett later Wednesday that "if you make racist statements and continue to say them, then that's probably what you are as well."

Black Lives Matter is against the "Western-prescribed nuclear family structure."
Grothman is speaking out against this radical neo-Marxist organization and defending American families.
Dan O'Donnell writes:

At no point during Grothman's speech did he say "we are not interested in families in the black community" or that "black people do not understand old-fashioned families." He referred only to the now-deleted phrase on the Black Lives Matter website.
On Thursday night, Plaskett claimed to MSNBC host Joy Reid that Grothman has used racist phrases such as "welfare mamas" during committee meetings and that one needed only to "look up Glenn Grothman" to find evidence of this. A Google search for "Glennn Grothman" "welfare mamas" produced no results save for a transcript of Reid's show in which Plaskett made the allegation.
"She's lying," Grothman said Thursday. "It's not a phrase I use. She's making it up. This is why so few people trust the mainstream media. It's unfortunate that they would give her a platform and not do any follow-up themselves as to whether she's telling the truth or just making something up. I think [Reid] surprised her with the question and Stacey didn't have anything to say so she made something up. That's what I think."

Plaskett, Joy Reid, and MSNBC should apologize for disparaging Glenn Grothman.

Trump's Vaccines Returning Life to Normal

Once vaccinated, resume your life.

The data say that once you are vaccinated, you should be able to go back to your regular life. Everything else is politics. Even the vaunted CDC now says that if you are vaccinated and IN A ROOM with a covid-19 positive person, you shouldn't quarantine. https://t.co/u96vgInNTV
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) March 11, 2021

There are those who want to keep covid alive as a crisis so that they can ram through transformative and unnecessary policy. That's morally obtuse.
— Ben Shapiro (@benshapiro) March 11, 2021

The Democrats' disgraceful exploitation of the COVID-19 pandemic to achieve their selfish political ends will soon be history. Each day, more Americans are freeing themselves from restrictions and getting closer to normal life again, thanks to the Trump vaccines.

The Democrats have done so much damage to the American people. They must be held accountable for ruining so many lives and be removed from office.

Partisan 'COVID' Relief Bill Passes

Less than 10% of Democrats’ COVID “relief” bill actually goes to combatting COVID-19.
— GOP (@GOP) March 10, 2021

What's in Dems' COVID "relief" bill:
—Abortion funding
—Stimulus checks for prisoners
—Stimulus checks for illegal immigrants

What's not in it:
—Provision that schools reopen to receive more new funding
—Amendment to hold states accountable that underreported nursing home deaths
— GOP (@GOP) March 10, 2021

The Democrats' bill is not COVID relief. It's Fake News to call it that. It's propaganda.

Give Families Choice

For the $130 billion in K-12 funding that Congress is about to pass...every K-12 family in America could have received a $2,300 check per student to spend on K-12 education expenses.

Bypass the teachers unions. Fund families #SchoolChoice!
— Tommy Schultz (@Tommy_USA) March 10, 2021

American taxpayers aren't paying for the education of American children. We're paying to support the teachers unions holding American children hostage.
This pandemic has raised awareness and opened people's eyes about many thing, including the value of School Choice.

Bailing Out Blue States

Good lord. https://t.co/ScmElGhkkl
— Brit Hume (@brithume) March 9, 2021

What is the incentive for any state to be fiscally responsible?
There is none when this kind of crap is rewarded.
Americans need to understand that the government is spending OUR money. We're paying for this. The government confiscates OUR money and then does this with it.
Wouldn't you like to keep more of the money YOU earned and spend it as YOU see fit?
This Blue state bail out is maddening.

The Cost of the Democrats COVID Package

The COVID package costs every single American $5,750 and then gives some people $1,400.

No, Biden isn’t a leprechaun.

He’s just bribing you with your own money and footing your kids with the bill (and some inflation to top it off).
— Dan Crenshaw (@DanCrenshawTX) March 7, 2021

The Democrats have been in power for less than two months. They're incredibly successful at doing terrible damage to the country.

We have so few in DC who remember who they work for and RonJohn is one of the best.

— Stephen L. Miller (@redsteeze) March 5, 2021

Ron Johnson is a rare breed - a Republican with a spine.
Naturally, he's being demonized by the Democrat Cabal. It's all politics. It's all BS. These Democrats/Leftists are spinning for power. They don't care about helping Americans. Nancy Pelosi bragged about holding up relief for months.
Bottom line: You know a Republican is doing something right if the Cabal goes on the attack.
I've voted for him both times he ran for office and I have every intention of voting for him if he chooses to run again for the U.S. Senate or some other office.

I’m soooo proud of @SenRonJohnson https://t.co/QDTfd0IEFC

COVID Relief Bill Needed NOW

$1.9 trillion in additional debt is $5,800 per person. Added to the $4 trillion of earlier relief bills, its a debt burden of $18,000 per person. This relief isn’t free.

Read the Bill

I just objected to skipping past the reading of the Democrats’ 628-page bill that was just introduced minutes ago.

If they’re going to add nearly $2T to the national debt at least we should know what’s in the bill.
— Senator Ron Johnson (@SenRonJohnson) March 4, 2021

Ron Johnson delivers again for the people. It's not too much to ask to read the bill that adds $2 trillion to the nationl debt.

Americans who have suffered and continue to suffer as a result of the Wuhan coronavirus need to see how little Congress wants to spend to help them and how much it wants to waste on things completely unrelated to COVID relief.

Ron Johnson Plans to Lead Effort to Resist COVID-19 Relief Bill

Since more than 90% of this "COVID relief" bill is not even related to COVID, I think we need a full reading of the bill.

Yes, it could take 10 hours but the American people deserve to know what's in it. https://t.co/QQDoCfkrHZ
— Senator Ron Johnson (@SenRonJohnson) March 4, 2021

From the Washington Examiner:

Sen. Ron Johnson, a Wisconsin Republican and a fiscal conservative, said he’s opposed to the cost and scope of the spending package, which provides $350 billion to bail out state and local governments, among many other provisions.
Johnson told WISN 1130 much of the spending in the bill is unnecessary and said it could be whittled down to a package that spends about $400 million.
“I’m going to lead the effort to resist starting today,” Johnson told the radio host. “I’m going to make them read that thing. It will probably take about 10 hours.”
Because it requires unanimous consent to dispense with the reading of the bill, there is little Democrats can do to stop Johnson.

Thank you, Sen. Johnson.

I'm going to make the Senate clerk read the Democrats’ $1.9 trillion bill. All several hundred pages of it.

Then I’m going to offer amendments. Many amendments.

We need to highlight the abuse.

This is not a COVID relief bill.

It's a boondoggle for Democrats.

This is a disgrace. We know the Democrats don't intend to provide proper relief for COVID with this bill.

Dems 'COVID' Relief Bill - FACTS

FACTS about Dems' "COVID" relief bill:

Only 9% goes to COVID relief
Only 1% goes toward accelerating vaccine distribution
Only 5% is focused on public health needs

The $1.9 TRILLION bill puts more focus on fulfilling political goals of the Left than helping Americans.
