We bring you this article about the tremendous spending of the Biden Administration. We want to hear what you think about these questions: 1) What do you think about the fact that Biden was first sworn in as Senator in 1973, which is also the year Roe v. Wade passed and IFA came into being? 2) What do you think about federal spending, especially debt spending? Please leave a comment with your thoughts.

. . .When Mr. Biden first came to Washington [as a Senator in 1973], federal debt was about $450 billion — a quaint little figure when you think about it these days.

In the 48 years since Mr. Biden arrived on the banks of the Potomac, federal debt has exploded. Today, it stands at $28 trillion — a figure that is literally beyond comprehension. . . .

The last time Joe Biden was allowed near the White House, he tacked more than $8 trillion to the national debt — mostly for all those “shovel-ready” projects that were not ready. Instead of “shovel-ready,” America suffered through the slowest recession-recovery in modern times.

To Mr. Biden’s credit, it took him and President Obama eight years to blow through all that money.  . . .

When President George W. Bush — a Republican — wanted to invade Iraq, Mr. Biden gladly cast his vote for the expensive adventure. Mr. Bush and Mr. Biden did not have any ideas for paying for the war so they just tossed it on the credit card.

Roughly $1.1 trillion. Because, really, there is nothing more conservative than going to war on the other side of the planet and borrowing the money to do it. . . .

Mr. Biden hasn’t been back in the White House three months yet as president and already he has blown through another $2 trillion that we don’t have.

Supposedly, it was a “COVID relief” bill but was actually packed with billions of dollars in unrelated junk including racial reparations for black farmers and goofball policies that will only hurt people already suffering from the pandemic.

Either way, it’s about the cost of two Iraq Wars — in just three months.

And now comes Mr. Biden with yet another proposal to spend another $2.3 trillion of money we don’t have. This one is for “infrastructure,” a word that Democrats have already begun torturing in order to include all their crazy pet projects.

And the good news is it is all bipartisan! Because, if there is one thing both parties in Washington always agree on it’s spending other people’s money they have no hope of ever paying off. . .

What do you think of this strategy?

The spending is outrageous and may bring the nation down. One way to destroy a nation is to destroy the economy. Puppet Biden and the “progressives” (totalitarians) are well on the way.

It deeply sorrows me to say I am not at all surprised. It would be a lie to say I have not been in a season of battle weariness since the outcome of the taintedPresidential election. Yet the Lord has not let go of me, though I stumble He wiill not let me fall into complacency.

Among many scriptures I cling to for encouragement r from Ps 34:
15 The eyes of the LORD are on the righteous, and his ears are attentive to their cry; 16 but the face of the LORD is against those who do evil, to blot out their name from the earth. 17 The righteous cry out, and the LORD hears them; he delivers them from all their troubles. 18 The LORD is close to the brokenhearted and saves those who are crushed in spirit. 19 The righteous person may have many troubles, but the LORD delivers him from them all; 20 he protects all his bones, not one of them will be broken. 21 Evil will slay the wicked; the foes of the righteous will be condemned. 22 The LORD will rescue his servants; no one who takes refuge in him will be condemned.

I have no doubt that our current President & VP along with others in Congress R enemies of God & therefore of ours!
I believe His word – He has overcome the world, has a plan for us & our enemies, He will lead to repentance and salvation those who will open their ❤️S & wills to His gift of salvation & will cast out those who do not choose the gift of life.
By His grace I push on to move out of warm & back to hot in interceding (ice plays a major part in helping me push forward for his truth & light to prevail & reveal & for His Kingdom to come & His will to be done on Earth as it is in Heaven.
I remain grateful & thankful for our many god fearing government leaders that have not stepped in to the herd of the deceitful🥰

For decades government has been irresponsible with the public money. In the last 20 years it has been reprehensible. Bloated government just keeps growing. It is not sustainable and they don’t care

I’m very upset about this enormous spending that my children and grandchildren will have to pay back. When I take a loan, I have to give collateral with the bank. What is the collateral for this debt? Who is the bank? I’ve heard that China is involved in backing our debt, which is very frightening to me.

For as long as I have been an adult (around 50 years) and aware of the spending of politicians, it has been obvious that most of them think our earnings are their personal wallet, and that they can spend it freely on anything they want, or throw it on the national debt. After all, they won’t be alive to see it ever paid off, kind of like an eternal credit card.

From this article comes proof that TERM LIMITS are essential! Forty-eight years is way too long to be held at the mercy of ANY one person’s influence over our government! In spite of what these egotists think, there are others in the country with good/better ideas
as to how to manage our affairs.

It’s so sad, these LIBERAL LEADERS DO NOT CARE ABOUT THE AMERICAN PEOPLE!! They only care about themselves. It breaks my heart the way they spend money on sinful sinful things that does nothing to help the American people. I pray for them that God would open their hearts to him or remove them from office.

I think it is disgusting and abhorrent what these liberal leaders are doing to our economy and our country! I pray to our Lord and Savior daily for these so-called leaders to open their eyes and see the disaster they are causing

If all those in Congress and the White House had to live (and die) by the same rules they impose on the rest of us things might change a bit, you think?

Pray for them, pray for our country. We all need to repent.

It is physically impossible to spend as much as Trump did. Secret Service for cousins, friends, business clients, extended family. Golf every week. Trips to Mar-a-Lago every week. Funneling federal money to his hotels and properties overseas by requiring diplomats to stay at Trump properties. Trump spent more in two years than Obama did in 8 and Obama sucked! Be realistic and stop lying just because you have been deceived by a con artist. If we continue this way the Republican party is dead!

    Trump didn’t even take a salary. He gave so much more to our country than he ever took. That’s the truth!

    Makes sense to me to have them protected by secret service…his family and people close to him would not be safe…as we saw how even the Republicans who attended the convention at the WhiteHouse were mobbed, harassed and threatened as they left. As much as the haters hated him, he was wise to make sure those close to him were protected. And, important to remember… being leader of the free world is a weight none of us will carry. For any President, their physical and mental health must require regular reprieves – be it golf, getting out of DC, or whatever. As far as what Trump spent – or more accurately, the Congress and Trump – what you said is not accurate. Trump added a total of 7.8 Trillion, Obama added 8.5 Trillion. So,Trump did not spend more in two years than Obama in 8….and Trump was dealing with a pandemic his last year as well. He had actually lowered the debt during his first six months. I think the ones who are truly the experts at the art of conning the public are the media and many career politicians whose truth twisting and false narratives too many Americans are willing to believe.

He is on target. That is why we have to have fiscally responsible politicians. We need a balanced budget.

The State of America has been allowed to decompose to leaders who have no clue what they are doing. We as Americans have NO excuse. We sit back in our comfortable homes, nice comfortable everything and forget the reason we are as well to do. There is a nice time feeding our flesh with comforts, indulgences that we have gained over a time. This allows us to be lulled to sleep on the important things we should be intent on. We no longer see the hungry family in the city. they are dirty from no place to bath, more intent on getting food to eat. We are at fault. ALL of us for not speaking up to the leaders we have voted in, the people that want to change our communities and our Country. Now We all need to repent, Get on our knees, and ask God to help us. No doubt there will be very difficult times ahead. Wake up Church from your Sleep. Get about doing the will of God, repenting and doing, reading your bible and speaking out in Love, the truth. That doesnt mean to except what is going on, it means tell the truth in a Jesus Like manner quoting what Gods word says.
Jesus is coming back soon, Where will you spend Eternity?

Don’t let a crisis go to waste. And create a crisis to allow for a complete take-over. Hitler did that very thing. It is nothing new.

Please pray for a revival and/or A Great Awakening in the U.S.A. by the grace of God Almighty. Amen. This is our ONLY hope. Amen again.

    Reagan is the one who coined the phrase “Don’t let a good crisis go to waste” so what is your point? I think you may be a RINO. You should read the Bible and Pray more. Seek his face

      The point is, no matter who “coined” this phrase, Rahm Emmanuel is the one who used , literally, “never let a crisis go to waste.” He and Obama, took it to a whole other level! What difference is it what Party anyone belongs to? And….we should all read the Bible and pray more. We should all seek his face!

As I prayed after the WSJ article that was showing yesterday, Dear God, Please help the government to reduce and eliminate all excessive debt and spending- for the borrower becomes the lender’s slave! I’ve been praying this for years. To me it’s my biggest political concern. But politicians from both sides of the aisle keep o we spending. If they restrain spending people cry like candy being taken from a baby. Seems very few really care about the ballooning debt as something seriously dangerous. But I’ll keep praying…

Corruption! Political payback to donors. Both parties are guilty.
This is systemic dishonesty. Part of the structure and the game.
Total swamp cleaning which Trump had started but got stuck in it too.
Only God can changed the stripes on tiger. Only God can wash the sin away.
We will find out how far we can go before the whole system implodes.
May God help us to survive the new holocaust.

Nothing has changed in Washington over all these yrs. do you suppose this has been the track of both admin? Back in 1979 under Carter we terminated our treaty with Taiwan and joined Communist China in relations. Interesting to see Biden was around at that time. The bible says nothing is new under the sun. Also at this time China is threatening to take Taiwan now and we still should have a base over there>

I think that Biden is truly being controlled, and is totally out of touch with reality. I really don’t think that he has any inner convictions or principles. Where does he think think that all of this money is going to come from? He is going to devalue the dollar badly- the only answer is to print more money. He is going to tax us to death to pay for his grandiose, out of control spending. I pray that this man, and all his commie cohorts, will have Damascus road experiences. Lord, only You know how we are going to deal with radical nonsense. We cannot do it in our own strength. Please strengthen us, and give us Holy Ghost revelation to deal with this mess. In Jesus’ name we pray.

This is all a take over trying to put one party in power for ever in America. God allowed this to happen for nothing is done with out God’s approval. I do not know but have a few ideas about why but will just trust God and the pieces will fall where they will. Spending all this money just to finance their liberal ideas and prop up the failing democrat states will come back on them. God has it all under control even when it doesn’t look like it. Trust in the LORD!

Biden is a puppet for Obama who has sworn on his fathers grave to make America a Third World Nation. He also said that he would accept a 3rd term IF he had someone who would do whatever he told them to say and do while he stayed hidden. The spending is all a part of destroying our nation! Thankful that we have a God that cares for us individually and will keep us as we keep our eyes on HIM!!

Current administration policies are part of a plan to break the U.S.A. so we cannot resist one world government.

The spending we are seeing in this Administration is completely and totally irresponsible. It’s a shame the future generations are not even being thought about and considered. This is a huge debt that even future generations cannot pay for. It seems that our children’s and our grandchildren’s lives are being brought to ruin. What’s more, there is really no accountability for this out-of-control spending.

There is no moral compass or accountability for these politicians

This spending is irresponsible and really a Trojan Horse financing so many things that are not really about the needs of the country but rather those of special interest groups.

I honestly don’t think potus knows what he is doing,he is just doing what he is told (kinda goes along with the info card he carries) I believe the dems are using him as a pawn eventually putting him in his place off the playing board.
Lord,I pray that the truth be known,that you would give wisdom to those who know,trust and follow you. That corruption and ungodly actions would be brought out of secret,exposed and disrupted out of our government and the news media.

I’m honestly waiting for the bottom to fall out. Our country’s out-of-control spending is insanely short-sighted and irresponsible. It is an egregious disservice to the American people as well as the ruination of our children’s future. We, as citizens, have no say and no control over it – no matter how loudly we shout or protest. This bottomless pit of deficit has created the giant mudslide erosion of our confidence in government/governing officials. It’s like being sucked into the vortex. Politicians make millions in office, while hard-working Americans have their hands tied behind their backs. Who will stand up for us? Who will put a stop to this corruption? It’s not climate change, it’s spending money we don’t have on things we don’t need, don’t believe in and don’t sanction which will be our ruination.

You Father know the hearts of man in position of government. We are in agreement with You and your word.
We pull them down out of power and position all those in office that are corrupt in their hearts. And we agree You are raising those up who walk in the fear of the LORD and in righteousness.
WE DECREE AMERICA WILL BE SAVED! In the Name of Christ Jesus

If you voted for Joe Biden you were deceived by the spirit of Religion.
The enemy has had you into an agreement to kill the unborn. You must repent and humble yourself before God. Now is the time to get in tune with the Holy Spirit and turn this nation around thru fasting and prayer.
We can win if we are in one accord with God. Pray and call your Senators. Speak Out
