In case you missed it, General Don Bolduc, candidate for U.S. Senate, calls out both Democrats and Republicans in Congress for proposing billions of dollars in spending amidst a recession in an Op-Ed published in the NH Journal.
Hours after the GOP helped Democrats pass a $52 billion bailout of the semiconductor industry, Majority Leader Chuck Schumer and West Virginia Sen. Joe Manchin (D-W.Va.) shocked the world by announcing an agreement on a $700 billion spending package chock full of giveaways and goodies to the left. Meanwhile, the economy officially entered a recession, fueled by runaway inflation that has imperiled many middle-class families’ ability to make ends meet.
From cradle to grave, liberals believe government should play an outsized role in our lives, from our decisions about vaccinations to how our kids are educated to how our hard-earned money is spent. That’s what people like Sen. Hassan believe. But if we are being honest with ourselves, Republicans have culpability, too. We cannot simply elect GOP candidates who promise to spend a little bit less. We need to get serious about the belt-tightening.
If I were in the Senate, I not only would have been a “no” on the semiconductor giveaway, I would have been a “Hell, no!”
