Republicans Rallying To Jam Zombie Bill Through To Trump

"A controversial “nonprofit killer” bill is back on track after it was blocked earlier this week.

A majority of Democrats in the House of Representatives rejected the bill on Tuesday out of fear that it could grant President-elect Donald Trump the legal tools with which to target his ideological foes, but Republicans are swiftly pressing ahead.

The Stop Terror-Financing and Tax Penalties on American Hostages Act, which would empower the secretary of the Treasury to designate any nonprofit as a “terrorist supporting organization” and revoke its tax-exempt status, is set to go before the Committee on Rules on Monday for a hearing that could tee up the bill for a new floor vote."

Environmental groups
Animal rights group
Civil rights groups
Non christian groups

Primary any democrat that votes for it.

Republican here (who loathes Trump) - I gotta say, TYT has my subscription and attention. Why? Because they’re authentic. Mistakes here and there? Sure. Disagree with them? Sometimes greatly.

But you can’t fake authenticity. Which is what I think people really want

True, I’m right wing, and protection for Israel is ridiculous.

The people voted for fascism, so now we get fascism. That's how democracy works.

Nonprofits just need to turn themselves into religions and become exempt

[jasonyoung]

We need more Nina Turner she's the best!

[MrSeananim]

This along with the anti BDS legislation tells you exactly how much the liberty lovers value free speech.

[janp]

Would that apply to all the Evangelist Church as well.

[francisseidel]

The First Amendment needs to be protected.

Trump's Presidency is going to be amazing!

[ysogvvk]

I really don't understand the American electoral system. It looks more like an auction where the highest bidder wins. Why aren't election campaigns financed EXCLUSIVELY from the federal budget for everyone the same as in normal states? I really don't understand, but I'm European, so forgive me.

[anthonyc]

It’s mind blowing that you are no longer allowed to have an opinion but rather need to pretend like nothing horrible is happening and everything is hunkey dorey .. unbelievable!

[jameskneubuhl]

I really don't like the government not having to provide evidence of it's decision. It sounds unconstitutional, like arresting someone without having to provide evidence of why.

I hope this is not going to be the start of an avalanche of fascism

[HooHoo-]

believing in Antifa is like believing in Santa Claus
