Government Shutdown Due 2014/15

With the Executive Order on Immigration the likelihood of another government shutdown has increased.

Republicans need an excuse to destroy America; in the case of work permits for immigrants, it also allows them to attack funding for Social Security at its source – the current American workforce. 

Once Republicans assume control of the US Senate the destruction of America will be assured, but for now – the last six weeks of 2014 – they really need to cripple the nation and attack the Christmas Holiday season.

At the heart of their destructive agenda, Right-Wing Republicans are, and always have been, extremely Anti-American and devoutly Anti-Christ.  This is because they are the servants of Satan which the Bible warned of.

SAINT PAUL’S JOKE explains that the GOP leaders and their loyal followers spit on the doctrines of Paul.  They have less need for Jesus and Peter than Constantine did when he was happily murdering people – of course, not being a convert until he was on death’s bed and could no longer sin, he was playing a legalistic game … just in case there really was a deity who would judge him.

it is reported that, “some conservative lawmakers have been considering passing a bill that would fund all the operations of the federal government except the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration Services.”

Note the beauty of such a defunding – the crippling effect on the economy.  It starts with all those INS agents and related government workers unemployed; naturally they go on SNAP and other welfare programs , so the government still lays out vast sums of money, though no work benefit is received.

Next there is the inescapable reality of having the various  immigration and naturalization coming to a halt – those who are ready to be processed to the next level of Naturalization would be denied that status; those whose visa documents are about to expire would become illegal; those who are seeking visas – tourists and such – would not be able to obtain them and therefore tourist revenues would stop.  The nation would lose hundreds of billions in economic benefit and crumble.

But that fits well with the summary in Death Over Life: Secret of Revelation: A Prophecy of America's Destruction

There is a reality – we cab happily reject the spiritual nature of Revelation and introduce the manmade self-destructive timing of our era.  Evangelicals want America to fall.  They want Washington to be their Babylon the great city.  they cannot manipulate an asteroid to hit the planet  -- as indicated in by the sounding of the Four Trumpets in Revelation.  What they can do is to destroy.

The House Appropriations Committee, led by longtime Rep. Hal Rogers (R-Ky.), ruled out the tactic last week.

Suicidal destruct has not yet become the ruling force in  a new Republican Tea Party manipulated Party.  But it will.

The Appropriations process cannot be used to 'de-fund' the agency. The agency has the ability to continue to collect and use fees to continue current operations, and to expand operations as under a new Executive Order, without needing legislative approval by the Appropriations Committee or the Congress, even under a continuing resolution or a government shutdown," but the very fact that it reached the stage where the Committee had to comment means the suicide pill is in hand and they are just looking for something to wash it down with.

The problem with this taking of the pill lies in the fact that "It would take an act of Congress to change the underlying statute to restrict the use of fees, not a simple 'defunding' provision on an appropriations bill, because the agency does not receive appropriated funds year to year."   In that case, BOTH Houses must first pass the legislation, which Obama than Vetoes, and then the dual Republican Houses must go very public with a two-thirds vote aimed at overriding the Veto.

Basically they would need to go on record as being anti-revenue, anti-tourist, anti-immigrant, anti-naturalization and generally anti-American.  Much easier to let the social media and Fox News take those positions.

The hard reality is, “under a ‘federal funding hiatus,’ or a government shutdown, USCIS employees continue to work because they are funded ‘by other than annual Appropriations.’”   Comically, but USCIS is off book.

Even more comically, since it is Off Book, it is purely an executive management agency – so, in the absence of clearly explicit legislation, Executive Orders are the only Laws it has to follow.  Thus the attack is reduced to a means of undermining the authority held by POTUS ever since Washington was sworn in on April 30, 1789.
