The speaker believes there is no shortage of great ideas, but Congress lacks the courage to act. The speaker's agenda includes attempting to get Congress to act. If Congress does not act within the first 100 days of the speaker's administration, the speaker will take executive action because action is needed.

Ultimately, he believes forcing everyone to return for a vote is necessary to uphold democracy.

Canadians face high costs for basics like food and housing, yet politicians give themselves raises annually despite not necessarily earning it. The focus on carbon tax debates in the House of Commons seems misplaced when politicians are increasing their own salaries. The opposition leader, Pierre Poliev, and MPs receive hefty salaries and benefits funded by taxpayers. This self-serving behavior is criticized as selfish and unnecessary. Translation (if needed): Despite the high cost of living for Canadians, politicians continue to give themselves raises, which is seen as selfish and unjustified.

Can anyone argue that our government isn't broken? We frequently face potential shutdowns. The process has become a cycle of voting to spend money we don't have, then deciding whether to pay the bills. One party often threatens to crash the economy by withholding payments, leading to temporary votes just to keep the government running. It feels like when I was broke and could only afford to put a dollar of gas in my car each time. This is clearly a broken system.

The speaker discusses the role of the Congress in making constitutional and legal reforms. They emphasize that only the National Congress can make constitutional reforms, while the Executive can only handle administrative matters. The speaker mentions their attempts to communicate with Antonio Gutiérrez and the limitations of the Permanent Commission. They highlight the importance of understanding that the government consists of all branches of power and institutions to combat corruption and impunity. The speaker also mentions that the public's outrage was triggered by the theft at the Social Security institution.

The incoming small house Republican majority is starting off by bullying a fellow member of Congress instead of fostering collaboration. This raises questions about their priorities following the November election. Are they genuinely committed to solving issues like high living costs, housing prices, and grocery prices? It seems not. Their focus appears to be on far-right extremism rather than addressing the real concerns of the American people. We will continue to highlight this disconnect and demand that Congress prioritize the needs of the public.

Fixing the US Congress: 1. Term limits like the president. 2. Congress paid state median salary. 3. No travel to Washington, use Zoom. 4. Single issue bills only. 5. Members under oath when speaking to the public, face perjury charges for lying.

**Speaker 0:** 212 Democrats voted against no tax on tips, Social Security, and overtime. If the government makes money and spends it responsibly, taxes aren't necessary. The new administration is holding the government accountable, and people are mad about it. **Speaker 1:** There's no tax on tips, overtime, or Social Security in the budget resolution. Taxes are normal. This utopia where nobody pays taxes isn't going to work. Read the budget before lecturing people about it.

Michigan House Republicans have walked off the floor during the lame duck session. With Democrats set to lose their majority in January, they are pushing through numerous bills that are seen as harmful to the state. For four days, Republicans have been waiting for discussions on three crucial bills aimed at supporting Michigan restaurants, small businesses, and improving road conditions. Frustrated with the lack of action, they decided to leave. They will not participate in voting on legislation that they believe will negatively impact Michigan unless the Democrats agree to vote on the bills that would aid small business owners and workers.

Good evening. I have three bills, but I'll focus on one to improve the image of this National Congress. I can't understand how those who have been here for multiple terms tolerate the public calling this place a nest of corrupt politicians. My bill aims to repeal a section of the Constitution that allows subsidies and grants for public utility or economic development. Many lawmakers only show up when there's money involved. Let's do things right and work for the people. We were elected to legislate, not manage funds. My other bills concern an abandoned school building and a road project. Let's wash away the negative perception of this Congress. God bless Honduras.

Bukele assumed power in the legislative branch with zero members. Despite lacking representation, he knew what he wanted to do, how to do it, and had the conviction to make it happen.

Republicans' nihilism has brought the country to the brink of a government shutdown at midnight unless Congress acts. Democrats offered to fund the government for another month, but Republicans rejected this because Donald Trump wants full control over government spending. The choice is between proceeding with the bill or risking a shutdown, which would give Trump more power. While the Republican bill is deeply partisan and doesn't address many needs, allowing Trump to take more power via a shutdown is worse. No one wants a shutdown. Members who oppose the CR want Republicans to take their responsibilities more seriously and negotiate spending bills that address the needs of the American people. The Republican party is the party of Trump, and allowing him to take more power via a shutdown is a worse option than passing the CR.

Hi, Andy Biggs here from Arizona's 5th congressional district. This week, we're set to vote on a continuing resolution that will extend spending for another three months instead of passing an annual budget. This ongoing issue contributes to our structural deficit and increasing national debt. The current resolution is packed with various policy issues, effectively turning it into a short-term omnibus bill. Unfortunately, this approach won't address our budget imbalance or eliminate poor policies; it merely adds more to secure votes. This highlights the dysfunction in Congress when we rely on continuing resolutions instead of a proper budget. I'll keep you updated.

The first speaker firmly believes in representing their constituents over bureaucrats and lobbyists, emphasizing common sense over political influence. The conversation ends abruptly. Translation: The speaker discusses pressure to vote against dark money influence in Colombia and advocates for tax money to be spent on core government functions.

The salary of the Vecinos por Torreón government team is 2,484,509.37. They propose a budget of 1,155,239.43 for PP Box and trusted personnel. The speaker questions their efficient resource management and suggests that the government officials should lower their salaries. The speaker is interrupted and asked to leave the municipal meeting. The speaker insists on respecting the institutions and asks for the individuals to be removed by the local police. The meeting is suspended until the police arrive.

The speaker expresses frustration with the incompetence and absurdity of the body they are a part of. They criticize the lack of progress in addressing the country's debt and the inability to have meaningful conversations about important issues like Social Security and Medicare. The speaker questions the purpose of taxation if one believes in modern monetary theory and highlights the failure of past commissions to address the debt. They express support for a current bill but emphasize that the American people are left wondering what Congress is doing for them.

We're reviewing the budget, starting with Congress. The Members Representational Allowance totals $810 million for 535 members, averaging $1.5 million each. Despite earning $175,000—three times the average American salary of $59,000—Congress is proposing a $70,000 raise, pushing their average salary to $245,000. Meanwhile, they refuse to raise the federal minimum wage. Additionally, leadership receives $37 million, and house committees get $212 million. This raises questions about the spending: what justifies these costs? The government needs to cut unnecessary expenses instead of misleading the public about their concern for citizens. The focus should shift from self-serving raises to addressing the needs of the American people.

Congress is seen as a rich person's club, with members making profitable stock trades. This issue needs fixing as it's a current problem, not just a future concern. Members have access to valuable information before the public, leading to unfair advantages in trading.

Congress is in chaos with Republicans evicting Democrats from their offices and the backup speaker trying to break the gavel. AOC is upset about missing recess and blames Kevin McCarthy for bringing them back to work. Meanwhile, Trump is focused on his court cases and plans to spin the case each day from outside the steps for free media coverage. The video also highlights the excessive spending by Congress, including millions of dollars for various projects like a carbon-neutral bird sanctuary and a million-dollar bathroom remodel for AOC. The speaker drama is seen as a racket, with politicians robbing the public and pretending to work while the government's spending is causing financial concerns. The video concludes by urging viewers to vote out all politicians.

Speaker 0 highlights that the report indicates the federal government wasted millions in the past year on transgender animal experiments and lab testing beagles in China, noting a contrast with funds used for voting identification. He frames the issue as a question of priorities: we don’t want to pay for people to have an ID to vote, but we’ll pay for lab testing beagles in China. Speaker 1 responds by acknowledging the presence of extensive federal spending and the need for greater oversight. He says this is the ninth year they have worked through this, and that there is always a need for more eyes on it and greater transparency. He emphasizes that the problem is not confined to a single administration or Congress, but rather that there is broad complexity requiring scrutiny and sunshine. Speaker 1 identifies the shutdown as the largest area of waste in the prior year, stating that $85,000,000,000 was lost during that period. He argues that shutdowns do have real fiscal impacts, countering a common belief that they do not affect outcomes. He then points to a specific critique: a quarter of a billion dollars was spent on transitioning mice and monkeys by NIH. He claims that American taxpayers do not want their dollars spent on such activities, and reiterates that taxpayers are more supportive of spending on national defense, education, and infrastructure, but not on what he describes as wasteful or inappropriate expenditures. Across the exchange, the speakers stress the overarching theme of government spending that does not align with the public’s perceived priorities. They emphasize the need for oversight and accountability, highlighting large-scale waste associated with shutdowns and specific research expenditures. The dialogue centers on contrasting perceived essential investments with expenditures they describe as wasteful or misaligned with taxpayer priorities, especially in the context of animal research and international laboratory activities.

There is a persecution against pro-migrant activists due to the inability to control migrant flows, benefiting only organized crime. Migrants have limited options, risking their lives in caravans or tractor trailers. Over 400 migrants disappeared in 2023 trying to reach the United States.

The Republicans are currently voting on amendments for funding bills, and it's crucial that they come to an agreement to avoid a government shutdown. This disagreement is essentially between the hard right and the even harder right within the GOP. Unfortunately, under Kevin McCarthy's leadership, it seems difficult to govern. However, it's important that they find a way to keep the government running because ordinary Americans will suffer if they don't. There's a bipartisan continuing resolution supported by both Democrats and Republicans in the Senate, and I hope the House will have the opportunity to vote on it and work together in a bipartisan manner.

Congress is out for 6 weeks, returning September 8th. A crisis is occurring with the Biden Harris regime trying to jail Trump. Aliens are likely able to vote without much pushback. Congress needs to address a government funding measure to ensure the government doesn't get any money until the republic is protected. Call your members of Congress now at 202-225-3121.

A recent report revealed that only about 1% of federal employees are working in the office, excluding security personnel. This situation is unacceptable to the American public. The new administration and Congress will likely push for federal workers to return to their offices and fulfill their responsibilities. The focus will be on common sense, accountability, and efficiency in government, which will ultimately benefit the people.

The American people are sick of the lies, cheating, and spending. We're seeing the climax of living beyond our means, fueled by the dollar's reserve currency status. The country is bankrupt, morally and financially, with moral bankruptcy leading to abuse of power. Some in Congress want to cut back spending, but there are loopholes. Congress is not doing its job by passing appropriation bills. Trump is asking Republicans to vote for a bill that largely maintains current spending levels, with an additional $8 billion for military spending. They are always trying to kick the can down the road, they are not cutting spending. The whole system is massive, abused, and immoral. It's going to take some time to fix this issue.
