IT’S OFFICIAL: Mike Pence’s Final Vote Is The Tie-Breaker

Vice President Mike Pence just scored a major win that made Republicans proud and the supporters extremely happy. It did not, however, satisfied the liberals, that were hoping for a different outcome in the situation.

What Pence actually did was to cast his vote Tuesday as the deciding factor in a 50-50 tie.

What did he vote on, you might ask? The repeal of Obamacare of course.

Donald Trump made it very clear to Senate that it is high time they got down to business and find a suitable solution for Obama’s failing health care bill. Shortly after, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell initiated a Senate lockdown so things could move up a notch. “With a surprise election comes great opportunities,” he said.

There were rebels in the case, that’s for sure, and some of the most outspoken included Sens. Susan Collins, R-Me., and Lisa Murkowski, R-Alaska.

Missing the entire vote was John McCain, who was recently diagnosed with a brain tumor. However, we are all aware where he stands on the subject, right? 80, who has been diagnosed with a brain tumor, missed last week’s session while he was recovering from a procedure to remove a blood clot above his left eye.

However, there were some that agreed to carry on with the process, including Sens. Rand Paul, R-Ky., Rob Portman, R-Ohio, and Shelley Moore Capito, R-W.Va.

“Today, I will vote to begin debate to repeal and replace Obamacare,” Capito stated. “As this process advances on the Senate floor, I will continue to make decisions that are in the best interest of West Virginians.”

 

The first time the Obamacare repeal became a threat to liberals and Obama’s heritage, they began opposing whichever solution was presented by Senate Republicans.

Still, Mike Pence was the much-needed tie-breaker in the case, which certainly puts things in a whole different perspective.

‘This Is a Real Crisis at Our Border’: VP Pence Backs Trump’s Push and Reiterates ‘No Wall, No Deal’

Image
The partial government shutdown continues into its fourteenth day as Democrats continue to battle against President Donald Trump’s demand for $5.6 billion in border wall funding, instead of coming up with an alternative solution. However, Vice President Mike Pence is backing the president as he said, “No wall, no deal.” During an exclusive interview with Fox News’ Tucker Carlson, Pence reiterated that the Trump administration’s focus is on border security, calling for the need for the border wall along the U.S.-Mexico border. The vice president explained that the president has made it clear “we’re here to make a deal” when meeting with top Democrats and Republicans on listening and negotiating funds. “You have no border security without a wall,” Pence said. “We will have no deal without a wall.” Pence went on to say there has been no negotiation — adding that they are prepared to listen and negotiate — on the border wall, claiming that even the American people know that “walls wor...

Cindy McCain on Jeffrey Epstein: ‘We All Knew What He Was Doing’

Image
Appearing earlier in January at an event on human trafficking, Cindy McCain, widow of the late Sen. John McCain (R-AZ), said that everyone was aware of deceased pedophile Jeffrey’s Epstein’s alleged sex crimes, and she criticized law enforcement for waiting so long to arrest him. A partial transcript is as follows: AUDIENCE MEMBER: I’m going to shoot straight. The perception among a lot of young people is that there is an untouchable ring of governmental and economic elites in this country that not only benefit, but actively participated in sex trafficking. Jeffrey Epstein was an example. Robert Kraft was arrested not for from here on trafficking charges. In terms of this as a grassroots movement, are these power players a priority for us right now? Can we even touch them or is this a pipedream we need to address in the future, somehow? CINDY MCCAIN: It’s like everything. It hides in plain sight. Epstein was hiding in plain sight. We all knew about him. We all knew what he was doin...
