Tyrant McAuliffe Imitating His Mentor in Washington

Terry McAuliffe thinks he can do whatever he pleases no matter how it violates the Virginia Constitution. He recently signed the budget while stating that he is vetoing certain items with which he disagrees, namely the statement the legislature added to the budget limiting the governor's right to expand Medicaid spending. The provision says "no [Medicaid] general or nongeneral funds shall be appropriated or expended" under Obamacare without a vote by the General Assembly. McAuliffe can't veto a condition unless he also vetoes an appropriation. But there was no appropriation, hence he can't line item veto the condition. A number of legislators have commented on the governor's overreach. He's acting like a monarch exercising the "divine right of kings" treating the General Assembly like no more than an advisory body he can ignore at will.

The Democrats in the General Assembly held the budget hostage for two months and now the governor is basically saying, no matter what the legislature says, he'll do exactly what he wants. Let him know he doesn't have the authority. Note the action items in Bob Marshall's statement below. We need to hold the tyrants in Richmond accountable!

Now these "enemies" also can be targeted for surveillance of their phone and social communication accounts fishing for information to persecute political opponents.

Edward Snowden pointed out that:

CBS Actually Reveals State Department Scandal

Cover up, cover up, cover up -- that's the mantra of this administration! And using the jackboots on whistleblowers is the strategy to scare anyone considering exposure of wrongdoing. (No wonder the NSA wihistleblower left the country.) Hey, you want a career...you shut your mouth and carry water for the power brokers!  See more here. It's good to FINALLY see one of the major networks covering the Obama administration's corruption. Let's hope they keep pounding on it until we get the full monty! There are certainly Republican crooks, but the Democrats have made it a science!
