We re open to doing a roughly $600 billion package which deals with what all of us agree is infrastructure, McConnell said at an event in Kentucky. And to talk about how to pay for that in any way other than reopening the 2017 tax reform bill.
Raising the corporate tax rate to 28%, up from 21%, is the linchpin of Biden s proposal to pay for the American Jobs Plan, a massive revamping of the nation s infrastructure and energy sector that would create jobs in the wake of the coronavirus pandemic.
But McConnell on Monday called the 2017 tax cuts among the most significant domestic accomplishments of the past four years under former President Donald Trump. We re not going to revisit that, he said.
It s Nancy Pelosi s party, and Nancy Mace was not invited.
Mace, the Republican congresswoman from South Carolina, did not make the cut of roughly 200 guests at President Biden s first address to a joint session of Congress. Instead, she was home. After putting her kids to bed, she made a margarita and watched the speech from her couch, but she wasn t happy about it. We re paid a significant sum of money to do a job and work, and we should all have the opportunity to be there tonight, said Mace. It s a disservice to the country, especially when it s during a time when you want to unify and bring people together.

On Inauguration Day, Joe Biden took the oath of office, and former Sen. Jeff Flake published a column breathing a sigh of relief that Washington could get back to business as usual now that the Orange Menace was gone. That same day, tin foil hat enthusiast Marjorie Taylor Greene took a break from warning Americans about the Big Jewish Laser in the Sky to send out a fundraising email proclaiming, “I’m impeaching Joe Biden.”
What do these two things have to do with each other? Everything. When our leaders are incompetent, conspiracy nuts and radicals see their market share increase.
