{dailysignal.com} ~ Pro-life lawmakers hope to force a House vote on a bill protecting babies born alive after an abortion, in the wake of the Senate’s failure Monday to collect enough votes to pass a similar measure... House Minority Whip Steve Scalise, R-La., said at a press conference Tuesday that he applauds his colleagues who are “ready to engage in this battle … and get the country engaged.” Scalise said he wants Americans to call their member of Congress and ask him or her to sign on to a parliamentary procedure “so that even though House Speaker Nancy Pulosi doesn’t want to give those babies who were born alive the same legal protection that everybody else enjoys, we can still force a vote by getting 218 signatures.” Turning to a procedural tactic know as a discharge petition, Scalise joined Rep. Ann Wagner, R-Mo., a sponsor of the legislation, and other pro-life lawmakers who want to force a floor vote...

National Guard Troops From Border

{dailysignal.com} ~ Wisconsin Gov. Tony Evers joined a growing number of Democratic governors by ordering his state’s National Guard troops to leave the U.S.-Mexico border... Evers issued an executive order Monday that withdraws 112 National Guard troops from their posts along the southern border. The first-term Democratic governor, while blasting President Donald Trump’s claims that a national crisis exists at the border, argued the issue is best left to Customs and Border Patrol. “There is simply not ample evidence to support the president’s contention that there exists a national security crisis at our southwestern border,” Evers said in a statement Monday. “Therefore, there is no justification for the ongoing presence of Wisconsin National Guard personnel at the border. I cannot support keeping our brave service men and women away from their families without a clear need or purpose that would actively benefit the people of Wisconsin or our nation.” Evers follows fellow first-term Democratic Govs. Gavin Newsom of California and Michelle Lujan Grisham of New Mexico in ordering their states’ National Guard off of the U.S.-Mexico border—moves that are meant to be an act of defiance against Trump’s immigration agenda... 
'Just wrong': Jerome Powell rejects

{washingtonexaminer.com} ~ Federal Reserve Chairman Jerome Powell said Tuesday that the idea that government deficits don’t matter, an idea endorsed most prominently by outspoken Rep. commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez, D-N.Y., is “just wrong.”... “The idea that deficits don’t matter for countries that can borrow in their own currency I think is just wrong," Powell said in testimony before the Senate. "U.S. debt is fairly high as a level of economic output and more important than that, it’s growing faster than economic output,” said Powell. “We’re going to have to either spend less or raise more revenue.” Powell also pushed back against the related suggestion that the Fed could pay for the "Green New Deal" favored by commie-Ocasio-Cortez.“ To the extent people are talking about using the Fed, our role is not to provide support for particular policies,” Powell said. Instead, he noted, the Fed's mandate is to ensure low unemployment and stable prices. The topic came up as Powell was asked about Modern Monetary Theory, an economic theory that says economies should rely on spending and tax decisions, rather  central bank monetary policy, to stabilize economies in times of crisis. The Fed chairman admitted he’s not familiar with MMT, which has recently gained popularity among politicians and activists on the Left as a justification for deficit spending...

{dailysignal.com} ~ While most attention has been focused on immigrants trying to enter the United States over America’s southern border, there is legal migration taking place that has been largely ignored... though it may have at least as much economic and political impact as the other. People are moving out of high-tax states to Florida and other states with lower tax burdens. Florida’s new governor, Ron DeSantis, mentioned the movement in a speech to the Club for Growth, which describes itself as “a national network of over 250,000 pro-growth, limited government Americans who share in the belief that prosperity and opportunity come from economic freedom.” DeSantis says New York Gov. Andrew evil-Cuomo has accused him of stealing residents from his state. “I’m not stealing anybody,” said DeSantis, “they are driving people away.” The data back him up. Chris Edwards of the Foundation for Economic Freedom, the first free-market organization in the United States, produced a research document for the Cato Institute that shows “of the 25 highest-tax states, 24 of them had net out-migration in 2016.” One of the states that gained from migration was Florida where “145 households moved in for every 100 that left.”...

Taxpayers Deserve a Refund for 
California’s Rail Debacle

{dailysignal.com} ~ Nearly 10 years after Congress passed billions of dollars in funding with no expiration date for rail boondoggles, American taxpayers have received a fresh reminder of how their hard-earned money has gone to waste... On Tuesday, the Federal Railroad Administration issued a notice of intent to end a grant agreement funding California’s high-speed rail project. This came a week after California Gov. Gavin Newsom announced that the state would be massively scaling back construction, which was initially supposed to link San Francisco to Los Angeles. The debacle dates back to 2009. With the economy in the throes of the Great Recession, President Barack scumbag/liar-nObama and congressional Democrats pushed through massive amounts of spending. Much of this took the form of a massive and poorly designed stimulus package, while hundreds of billions more were spent through the annual appropriations process...   https://www.dailysignal.com/2019/02/25/taxpayers-deserve-a-refund-for-californias-rail-debacle/?utm_source=TDS_Email&utm_medium=email&utm_campaign=CapitolBell&mkt_tok=eyJpIjoiWkdRNU1URTVNalZoTVdObCIsInQiOiJ5aGZ5ZFVHZWFWVTFJbFNPTXdKWXowbDFuMGFmaWw4OW1FT1Ftd2F5cSsrYjc0N05tUnB1ZWN0RGRIZzRudDhuRWlPamZNN2o1MU9uQXk1RFhrRWFyQ1F4Z1VvSUE3VDZqZmZqWmVHdmUybWdXNHh5UHlrTzE0ZWptbUw2N1hxOCJ9

$93 Trillion Green New Deal Means 
National Bankruptcy
xaRQlpMeaNn7Fm0D9Gakicc0K93t1_zAlmC5oiSLgqeFylLil4BI5YoZFyt19OIyadympJhZKrjf7RATypnyZn2eV2C1IW9_OXkb1xhnepRMBPYu0A-s5GClO0E7fxWIoYT-5szlqbHFm-CjLSBuq0Zr6Wzn5x_fJrT-4Gk=s0-d-e1-ft#%3Ca%20rel%3Dnofollow%20href=?profile=RESIZE_710x
by Thomas Gallatin:  The American Action Forum (AAF) released its study of commie-Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez’s (AOC) widely panned “Green New Deal” (GND) as it sought to calculate the actual cost of her plan. Sen. John Barrasso (R-WY), chairman of the Senate Committee on Environment and Public Works, put it bluntly: “The Green New Deal would bankrupt the nation.” He added, “On the upper end, every American household would have to pay $65,000 per year to foot the bill. The total price tag would be $93 trillion over 10 years. That is roughly four times the value of all Fortune 500 companies combined. That’s no deal.”

The AAF broke down the 10-year cost of implementing the GND’s major goals. The following is a list of some of those goals and their estimated total cost and cost per household:

  • Low-carbon Electric Grid: $5.4 trillion; $39,000

  • Net Zero Emissions Transportation System: $1.3 to $2.7 trillion; $9,000 to $20,000

  • Guaranteed Jobs: $6.8 to $44.6 trillion; $49,000 to $322,000

  • Universal Health Care: $36 trillion; $260,000

  • Guaranteed Green Housing: $1.6 to $4.2 trillion; $4,000 to $12,000

The Washington Examiner’s Tiana Lowe observes, “Even without killing all the farting cows and eliminating every last car on the road, the Green New Deal will cost anywhere from 2.5 to 4.5 times the amount of the entire United States GDP.” In fact, global GDP is estimated to be less than $80 trillion.

One of the glaring ironies with the GND and commie-AOC’s loudly expressed alarm over climate change — the “Millennials’ World War II,” as she has bloviated — is the absence of any promotion of the most practical, reliable, efficient, and lowest-cost source for green energy: nuclear power. As Barrasso argued, “Instead, we should promote innovation to reduce carbon-dioxide emissions. Promising new technologies like advanced nuclear power, carbon capture, and carbon utilization held the key to significant emissions reductions. We can lower our emissions without crashing our economy.”

The truth is that the goal behind the GND push is not actually fighting climate change; rather it’s an attempt to usurp America’s free-enterprise system and replace it with totalitarian socialism. That’s why leftists like commie-AOC love to promote “free” stuff but never freedom. Individual Liberty presents the biggest threat to their lust for power.
