With missiles flying in the Middle East, illegal immigrants streaming across our southern border, inflation rising, and gas prices skyrocketing, the bad news for Joe Biden just keeps on coming. But perhaps no news did more to send chills down the spine of Biden administration officials than the announcement that only 266,000 jobs were created last month, just a quarter of the one million that was expected.
Like the other crises threatening to overwhelm Biden’s presidency, it’s a crisis of his own creation—attributable in significant part to socialist policies such as unemployment bonuses that are paying people not to work.
While the media is eager to distract from the Biden disasters by advancing the narrative of an imaginary world in which Republicans are careening off the cliff and on the verge of inter-party civil war, in fact, the party has rarely been more unified.
As of this week, 22 out of 27 Republican governors have announced that they are rejecting the Biden unemployment bonus policy, as economists and businesses sound the alarm about the dire effects of handing out $300 weekly checks giving people extra money to stay home.
The governors include many of the party’s leading faces, including Florida Governor Ron DeSantis, Iowa Governor Kim Reynolds, and South Dakota Governor Kristi Noem.
At the state level, the party’s leading figures have quickly aligned their strategies to resist the War on Work being waged by the Biden administration. With Democrats in control of the House, the Senate, and the White House, this unity and coordination at the state level may be Republicans’ most effective means of stopping the federal power grab Washington Democrats are attempting.
While politicians in D.C. ignore the warning signs and take the easy, short-term political “win” of handing out even more borrowed or freshly printed money, the task has fallen to Republican governors to recognize the economic catastrophe these policies are creating around them.
South Carolina Governor McMaster described the problem of the unemployment bonuses clearly. “What was intended to be a short-term financial assistance for the vulnerable and displaced during the height of the pandemic has turned into a dangerous federal entitlement,” he said. He suggested that the Biden policy is “incentivizing and paying workers to stay at home rather than encouraging them to return to the workplace.”
A quick drive by any street with a restaurant or store confirms this fact. Help wanted signs blanket America’s business landscape, with hiring bonuses and hourly pay at more than twice the minimum wage for most entry-level jobs. Businesses have no choice; they are competing with the government’s stay-at-home bonuses.
Unfortunately, the War on Work is not just limited to unemployment bonuses. With the help of Democrats in Congress, Biden’s policies are saddling states with increasingly bloated welfare rolls. For instance, they have banned states from removing able-bodied, working-age adults from welfare programs even if those individuals are no longer eligible—adding further to the disincentive for unemployed workers to get back on the job. In effect, the Biden administration is helping to create a new permanent class of long-term government dependents, unlike anything that existed prior to the pandemic.
The far-left has not let a good crisis go to waste—they’ve used it to transform the face of America’s welfare state.
For the same reason, D.C. Democrats are attacking new election integrity measures being adopted in Republican states. Biden, Bernie, and the rest of the Democrat swamp hopes that with a few more elections like 2020—where voting laws were manipulated, abused, and violated across the nation— Democrats may succeed in turning their millions of new welfare state dependents into Democrat voters.
Let’s hope Republican Governors stay unified and stand in their way.
Lets c if the replubicans are all talk or will actually do it. They failed us before.if they want my vote i need 2 c some balls on the scene. As their wifes have bigger ones
Proud to be a Texan. Our guv is on the right track. He also signed the heartbeat bill and has stopped state institutions from enforcing any sort of mask mandate. Freedom!!
Hooray Red States, awesome Bravo
Georgia’s governor needs to get off his rear end and do the same!
Perhaps the government should just stop lifting the debt ceiling! Congress SHOULD NOT receive another paycheck until all able bodied Americans return to work! Congress needs to remember without people paying into the coffers, there is no salary for them as well.,
“Short term financial assistance ” is the key phrase.
Anything beyond that is little more
than a Halloween hand out.
Some “trick or treat” on our economy!Blah!
Evidently Texas and a few other states know a thing or two.
Nothing new here. Just confirmation of more of the “wrong thinking” of the Demsheviks being perpetrated against our nation and all Americans. Glad these Governors are standing up and resisting the dysfunctional policies coming out of this Administration and the Swamp. This gives hope that the momentum will be picking up as we head toward the 2022 elections and that the Demsheviks will lose badly.
Biden’s cabal is hurriedly racing to destroy and “remake” this Country into a globalist “utopia” of their own distorted visions. Following Marxist & Alinsky platforms, they will create an evil Gov’t monolith that the regular citizens will suffer in- (think:”Hunger Games”?) You can laugh at that, but that’s what ‘they’ hope you’ll do. Then it’ll hit you in the face, and you’ll just shrug when they take your land/property from you- they’ve already started that process. Your money in your Bank is already being scrutinized- (think:Greece?) Yeah, Uncle Joe’s puppeteers have BIG plans for us, they’re just not telling us the end results, which is best described as “misery”.
America needs a President———————now we have a professional lying idiot and a CA hooker !!!!
That is their intention….if they can make you depend on the government for your livelihood, then they own you….this is the communist regime and ignorant and lazy people will be like the people in 1938 Germany. And in the end, 6 million or more people were murdered.
Please list the Governors !
SECESSION AND/OR CIVIL WAR IS IMMINENT!!#LOCKNLOAD
When will this dementia laden old man Biden and his regime be stopped from this venture of greed and corruption against the citizens of the USA. I said citizens and not illegal immigrants. Everytime I see this scum ball Biden on TV my mind goes out who would vote for this idiot. Their will be a end for the likes of Biden/Harris/Pelosi/Schumer/and the liberal loonies in congress and those running BLUE STATES like California /New York/ Illinois/ETC///Wake up REPUBLICANS and get it DONE//
The Republican state governors have the right idea. If you are able to work, work. Cut off the gravy train. Unemployment Insurance is supposed to be a hand up, not a hand out. It used to be, if you refused to look for work, your unemployment benefits would be cut off. Even resulting in jail time, if you falsified your records. We need to return to that common sense approach. Cut off Biden care!
FROM AN EXPERIENCED CONSERVATIVE SOCIAL WORKER, PROBABLY THE ONLY ONE IN THE NATION: You don’t have to be a rocket scientist to figure this out. But some people have just quit thinking for themselves. I have never been in support of a social program being a permanent way of life. Our programs were designed to assist people in getting back on their feet as a temporary solution. What Biden is doing is luring some Americans into becoming secure with the government taking care of them, the democrats will let this go on for awhile, get some Americans get used to this, and then Biden and all democrats in the Whit House will drop the ball, and take the money back. I’m disgusted by the left and so saddened by the Americans who voted Biden in. Thank you to Republican Governors we are here to stand with you or we will lose our Nation to Socialism. GOD BLESS THIS GREAT COUNTRY
There is so much more I can explain and share being on the front lines of social work for 20 years, you would not believe this but the people who are already on welfare have no idea how OBAMA CARE impacted the middle class Americans, and all other Americans who must pay for Health Care. IGNORANCE IS A DANGEROUS EXCUSE TO LOSE YOUR FREEDOM TO CHOOSE!
Thank God for these Governors! Sure wish my governor was among them, but he isn’t.
These Governors have got it right. I hope ours follows suit. We certainly need more leaders with courage to stand up to the evil ones.
Working( if you are physically able) is good for you, sitting at home and getting a check is not. AND it’s not good for businesses that are cutting hours or closing because they don’t have enough workers. AND we are printing more money which is not good for the country. Our country needs workers now, keep America moving forward! Get back to work.
As a South Carolinian, I am proud of McMasters. In 90 days we will open carry, which I have no problem with, except that I still plan to conceal carry. I do not want Biden’s idiots to know that I am armed–UNTIL that moment occurs and they damn sure will then!!
This Biden/Harris Administration is a JOKE.
What a bunch of MORONS !!!
Yes! Time to stop the Federal bonus to unemployment and state unemployment which was a stop-gap to assist displaced workers due to shutdowns.
There are Help Wanted signs everywhere. If you refuse to seek work, refuse a job offer or a call to return to your former job, that is on you, not the taxpayers!
Nothing that Biden has done has been good, but the most rediculous thing he has done is paying people to stay home and not work. I have friends who have a business and they are advertising for help, but people come in and apply and work one or two days and leave telling him that they “can make more money stayng home than working.” This is ludicrous and it makes me so angry. I worked hard for over 50 years and most of that time before I got into management was for a pittance and I paid my insurances, for a car and rent on an apartment WITHOUT ANY HELP FROM THE GOVERNMENT OR ANYONE ELSE. If I could do, these young people can do the same thing, but all they care about is a handout. I would have been embarrased to say I received a handout from the government. Even when filing my taxes, I could not file as head of the household, because I did not have children. This just makes my blood boil when I see people taking advantage of what I call the taxpayers money in this way.
Red State governors need to formally unite against every biden regime unconstitutionality or overreach of ANY KIND. Sadly, failure to accomplish the establishment of a formal, recognized coalition, will undoubtedly and inevitably lead to serious ugliness in the coming months and years.
Patriot Will, you paint a dark picture. You concerns are catching.
We find ourselves in the darkest corner of an impossibly dark closet with no exit until 2024.
However, I do believe that at least one house of Congress will flip in 2022.
We shall see.
I never would have believed Americans would sell out our own country. It is ought for greed. So very sad. Goodbye America. Will we even be able to drape her with a flag and sound off the salute? This year isn’t even half over and every day they are shoving her, closer and closer, toward a cliff to her death.
My bf says, “God above all”. I have to hold onto that. God is all the hope I have. What of our children and our grandchildren? I repeat to myself, over and over … God above all.
I pray to God every day to please bless and protect our country from the Biden administration, from the Socialists and from certain ‘other’ people in our government that should never have been allowed to be in our government on any level. After all, we certainly don’t want Shiah law in our country, right?
Does Biden have any economic advisors? How does paying people to stay home instead of working and this payment from govt. is borrowed money that creates more debt. Is this a move to socialism and creating generation that is dependent on government? Biden briefs almost every day but dodges questions that are asked.
Granted I am an old guy….perhaps clinging to the past…..but when I was growing up, people on welfare were small in number….and fell into one of two categories…..they could not work because of some disability or condition beyond their control, and even while they wanted to work, could not, and the government stepped in to help for humanitarian reasons. As well, the local communities, churches, neighbors chipped in out of love for the neighbor. These folks never desired to stay on the dole any longer than they had to. The other category were the folks who were looking for the easy path….freebies whenever possible. This was across racial lines, and involved able bodied people who chose to sit on their duff and stick out their hand. If you were on welfare, it was, unless you had no other choice, a shameful thing…..both on the part of the one receiving the help and on the part of the community…..except for genuine need. Mind you, the people who were receiving help because of job loss, health issues or other unexpected, temporary causes, wanted off welfare as fast as possible, so they could go to work again. We know how all of this has changed…..with more and more hand outs, it becomes habit, and expected, even demanded as a ‘right’. In my opinion, no welfare support is to be offered to any able bodied person who does not seek, find and get work. There is no lack of jobs….only lack of work ethic. For the folks who are using the system for profit, there are laws that should be used to stop the abuse…..for the folks who plan their lives with welfare as their primary income source, there ought to be an end to such practice. Call me mean, call me callous, but no society can survive if it is built on such a system….look at Greece several years ago….so many of their citizens were on the dole, that when the country went almost bankrupt and could no longer pay up…..it brought about near civil war. My first job was menial, low pay….and a start. Over the years, as I improved in skill and ability, increased my education, gained experience and weathered the storms of economic trouble, I worked….even held several added jobs to supplement income in hard times….never asking for aid, or assistance from any government agency. Sometimes it was very hard, on me, on the family, etc. But you just did it. This kind of thinking has gone by the wayside for many people. They want the executives pay on the first day, with full benefits, bonus and perks. If they don’t get it, they decide to take the dole……some have been on the dole for generations, claiming they have no choice because of race, or persecutions, or some other “reason”. Where does it end?
It is obvious they are trying their best to make our country a socialist one. They are trying to make citizens dependent on the federal dollar, destroying any pretense of election integrity, and politicizing the Supreme Court.
And the money is being borrowed from China!
The US government is a phucking joke and the so-called Congress has been phucking the US taxpayers for years !!!!!
The @$$hole in the WH and the CA hooker are proof of this !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
United against joebama and commie harris destruction of America and freedom!
We the people must remove EVERY Democrat in 2022. Failed govenors half whit of Michigan, elder abuser coumo of NY, losers in Illinois, New Jersey ,Pennsylvania!
Any/every representative or senator with a d, goodbye!
Welfare reform is past due!
We knew this was coming no surprise to the smart ones….this fraudulent Totalitarian Regime looks more stupid every day so does anyone who voted for joke obiden and 1% harris those two clowns belong on the cover of “do we screw em and how”
Joe Biden has been clueless in thinking through all of his pathetic policies. We are stuck !!
Problem with a 78 year old career politician – need to know what work is, regardless of the position.
Both my native state (Republican Gov. Asa Hutchinson) and adopted state ( Republican Gov. Eric Holcomb) have ended the payment of unemployment compensation from the federal government, so our people can get back to work. Companies are begging for workers. I hope all Republican, and even some Democratic states, will follow suit.
On a different issue, I fervently hope that the US will not turn its back on Israel and risk God’s judgment, as all the superpowers in the past who did turn against Israel have experienced.
Our D governor wants to pay a hefty bonus to people getting jobs. So he figures he’s got you whether you choose to stay out of work and collect enhanced government handouts or to do the right thing and get back to work. He’s buttering both sides of the bread.
Ludicrous, totally insane, what is this country turning into???
I have been saying this for years . . . get rid of both parties, Rep. and Dem. They both stink. Only the Rep. party stinks a LOT LESS. Trouble is, every election, that is our ONLY choice
Well the GOP in Congress helped set up this debacle in 2020.
As usual the states must lead the charge to what the Republican Party should be going forward!
I may even vote for them next year.
Amen!
Our Socialist government is using money created by those who are working to provide incentives for those who are willing to let someone else take care of them. They are creating a situation where more American citizens are becoming more dependent on government. As has been proven over and over again in failed Socialist and Communist nations, this sort of government control cannot last forever and will soon enough turn out to be devastating to both those who are producing the money that is being redistributed and those who are being taken care of by that money. This is a lose-lose situation for the average American citizen while elitist politicians and other government workers become more wealthy and more powerful.
His Excellency Joey Biden is the wrong person in the wrong place.
Thank you Governors for seeing through Biden’s Socialist approach to complete Government control.
Trump is backing our line of defense with supporting Republican governors to the tune of 9x’s matching-$20=$180. PTL for the real President Trump. He’s willing to sacrifice himself for saving America from the wicked tyranny of the left. It has been a long time since we had a President who truly loved the people of America and what has made us great-Our Judeo-Christian way of life!!!
The Democrat mantra… Vote democrat & continue getting gov’t paid FREEBIES, for life…
If Y’all live in a ” blue state ” that state will willingly keep you on WELFARE forevermore whilst they themselves continue to suck up all the Federal subsidies they can find…I live in such a state, sadly.
My state of residence is Vermont & sadly enough it has been on a ” socialistic bent ” for close to 50 years now, think Bernie Sanders: Need I say anymore?
I tip my hat to the red state governors that are shutting the unemployment bonus spigot OFF & telling people to get back to work!
Inflation is here folks, look at the lumber prices, up 300%… Look at those gasoline prices now as we should profoundly thank Uncle Joe for shutting down the Keystone pipeline on day ( 1 )…
Need a job? Better be quick, there are 1000’s upon 1000’s of illegal immigrants that want those jobs right now & Uncle Joe is prepared to get them social security cards so as to make them eligible for those Federal subsidies, i.e. stimulus payments, welfare, etc. & get their votes at election time…
Bill on the Hill… :~(
I live in Pennsylvania and I sure wish we had a smart governor – one who understood economics and human needs. But, we’re got a tyranical governor – a democrat!
Biden and the Democratic party is HOME LAND INSECURITY. Just on this issue along, Biden should be impeach,
