Today marks 43 days of the government shutdown, the longest in history. The end is here after eight Democrat senators voted on Sunday with Republicans to approve the Continuing Resolution, and the House voted Wednesday night. Six Democrats voted with Republicans. The final passing vote was 222-209, with the President signing it into law.

This CR keeps things funded until January 30, but it provides money for the Department of Agriculture and the SNAP program (food stamps) until September 30. Staff who were fired after October 1 will be reinstated, and all federal employees will receive retroactive pay.

Federal workers such as air traffic controllers will be getting about 70 percent of their back pay within 1-2 days; the remaining 30 percent should show up in their accounts in about a week.

Leveraged Out

Democrats had the losing hand, insisting on an extra $1.5 trillion in new spending—plus an extension on the covid subsidies for ObamaCare.

Senator Angus King, who is not running for re-election, told reporters that the Democrats’ strategy wasn’t working and that’s why he and seven other senators gave up trying to use the shutdown as leverage for ObamaCare.

“In other words, it’s been six weeks. The Republicans made it clear they weren’t going to discuss the health care issue. The Affordable Care Act, tax credits until the shutdown was over…We tried to keep working that for six weeks. It didn’t happen…”

The ObamaCare tax subsidies, which were implemented during covid, are set to expire at the end of December. The seven percent of Americans who have ObamaCare are going to see their premiums skyrocket.

Scam Healthcare

President Trump exposed the scam in that program which benefits large insurance companies rather than taxpayers. He threatened to send the money directly to the people instead of the corporations.

“I am recommending to Senate Republicans that the Hundreds of Billions of Dollars currently being sent to money sucking Insurance Companies in order to save the bad Healthcare provided by ObamaCare, BE SENT DIRECTLY TO THE PEOPLE...” - President Donald J. Trump

Here’s the real trouble with ObamaCare. The insurance companies are paid from the US treasury $40 billion each year. Automatically. Congress doesn’t vote on it. The big “nonprofit” hospitals are getting $125 billion in tax breaks every year.

The hospitals don’t pay property tax, income tax, or sales tax—and also get $28 billion in direct Medicare overpayments.

Why this Matters: ObamaCare is a massive wealth transfer system. The money is taken from taxpayers and given to insurance companies. Instead of lowering premiums, it has increased them to the point that without subsidies, it is completely unaffordable. And where there’s massive money, there’s fraud.

A new report on Obama’s Affordable Care Act shows:
6.4 million people are fraudulently receiving ObamaCare subsidies
62 percent of Obamacare subsidy recipients don’t qualify
ObamaCare fraud costs the taxpayers $27 billion a year

Obama’s “Affordable” Care Act makes healthcare anything but affordable.

Presidential Pardons

President Trump pardoned Rudy Giuliani, plus his lawyers John Eastman, Mark Meadows, Christina Bobb, Boris Epshteyn and dozens of others who helped him following the 2020 election. Trump also pardoned the 2020 Alternative Electors.

New LGBTQ Rulings

The US Supreme Court unanimously decided not to review the legality of same sex marriage. The question was raised by former Kentucky clerk Kim Davis who was put in jail and fined for refusing to grant a marriage license to a same-sex couple. The Court’s 2015 Obergefell v. Hodges decision is preserved, for now.

As to the question of listing one’s preferred gender on a passport, the Supreme Court ruled in favor of the Trump Administration. All new passports will display a person’s biological sex at birth.

The Sixth Circuit Court has ruled on free speech and student rights. The mere use of biological pronouns that conflict with a person’s chosen gender does not entail “aggressive, disruptive action.” This is a huge victory for those who refuse to pretend that men are women and vice versa.

How to Pray: Praise God for the end of this very costly shutdown. Thank the Lord, He heard our prayers! Pray for the fraud to be exposed in all government programs.

Psalm 55:17 - Evening, and morning, and at noon, will I pray, and cry aloud: and he shall hear my voice.
