With the legislation almost guaranteed to have no Republican support, different factions of Democrats are locking horns over the bill's fate.
A key component of the bill is enacting a "Green New Deal" agenda, which is a top priority for left-wing activists.
Rather than delivering tangible environmental benefits, the bill would do far more to centralize power and control over the daily lives of Americans in Washington and provide handouts to political pet causes and special interest groups.
Section 136601 of the spending bill would spend $10 billion on creating something similar for the environmentalist movement, calling for funding "Environmental justice" programs in higher education.
That's where the multiple "Civilian climate corps" programs scattered across the bill come in.
While much of the rhetoric surrounding the bill revolves around socialist notions of "Economic justice," the details in this section show that Democrats have no problem cutting checks to the wealthy.
When it's not lavishing billions in tax subsidies on the top 5%, the bill does make some awkward attempts at applying the nebulous concept of "Equity" to new environmental programs.
It's becoming increasingly difficult to discern fact from fiction, and unfortunately the media has a strong bias. They spin stories to make conservatives look bad and will go to great lengths to avoid reporting on the good that comes from conservative policies. There are a few shining lights in the media landscape-brave conservative outlets that report the truth and offer a different perspective. We must support conservative outlets like this one and ensure that our voices are heard.
