Should a "red wave" occur‚ it would allow the GOP to pass legislation on taxes‚ spending‚ and the debt limit with just a simple Senate majority As the 2024 U.S. election cycle kicks into gear‚ Citigroup ponders the potential fiscal implications under different election outcomes. Perhaps most interesting is their prediction of a high likelihood of Republicans gaining control of the Senate‚ although falling short of a 60-vote filibuster-proof majority​​. This‚ however‚ does not guarantee smooth sailing for the GOP. With the Democrats’ current grip on the Senate (51-49)‚ Republicans would need to not only retain competitive seats but also snatch at least one from key states like Florida or Texas​​. According to Citi‚ the Senate will flip republican: "Democrats currently control the Senate 51-49. But Senator Manchin’s decision not to compete for his seat in West Virginia means that state is very likely to go to Republicans." pic.twitter.com/pgc19h4lGX— zerohedge (@zerohedge) December 5‚ 2023 House Dynamics: Democrats’ Favorable Map According to the report‚ Democrats are in a favorable position when it comes to regaining control of the House – needing to net just five seats. This contrasts with the 16 Republican districts classified as “toss-ups‚” implying yet another shakeup which would cast all sorts of GOP investigations into disarray.URGENT!

Presidential Race: Trump’s Lead and Third-Party Wildcards Donald Trump’s enormous lead over the GOP field means he’s almost guaranteed the Republican nomination‚ absent​. That said‚ the presence of a third-party candidate like Robert F. Kennedy Jr. could throw a wrench in the works (theories on just who RFK Jr.’s run will most negatively affect vary). Although his current impact seems neutral‚ pulling votes from both Trump and Biden‚ his influence cannot be ignored​. Trump is currently smoking the entire GOP lineup‚ and has recently overtaken President Biden in hypothetical match-ups. Fiscal Policy: A Divided Government’s Dilemma According to Citi‚ under two of the three most likely election outcomes‚ the U.S. would see a split legislature. This division would mean further gridlock‚ with bipartisan cooperation required to pass any fiscal legislation – a feat that has proven challenging in recent times​​. Potential areas of agreement could include defense and infrastructure spending‚ as well as industrial policy through legislated subsidies‚ similar to those in the bipartisan CHIPS Act​. “Red Wave” Scenario: Tax Cuts and Deficit Concerns Should a “red wave” occur‚ giving Republicans control of both the presidency and the legislature‚ Citi believes that the reconciliation process to brute-force policy could be a game-changer. It would allow the GOP to pass legislation on taxes‚ spending‚ and the debt limit with just a simple Senate majority. Another likely outcome of a red wave would be the likely renewal of Trump-era individual tax cuts‚ which could significantly increase the deficit​. According to the Congressional Budget Office‚ if Trump’s 2017 Tax Act provisions are extended‚ it would increase the deficit by $134 billion in 2026 and $346 billion in 2027. Even in a divided government‚ some of the Trump tax cuts could be extended‚ which Congress did in 2011 in a bipartisan vote to extend Bush-era tax policies. Fiscal Restraint Amid Growing Deficits Citi’s analysis also emphasizes an increased focus on fiscal restraint due to growing deficits‚ which could be larger than anticipated in 2023. According to the report‚ “The 2024 deficit is boosted in part because of automatic stabilizers that would kick in during a recession.” With deficits projected to remain elevated in 2024 and 2025‚ there will likely be a reduced appetite for additional fiscal stimulus‚ especially in an election year with ongoing concerns about inflation​ The key takeaway? Brace for uncertainty and keep a close eye on the evolving political landscape. BOMBSHELL! Government Whistleblower Exposes Mass Deaths From Covid Shots

"We should get real answers on what happened to Jeffrey Epstein‚ and any of the high-level political people that he was involved withKennedy says‚" Kennedy says Robert F. Kennedy Jr. is facing fresh scrutiny this week after admitting that he has flown on infamous late pedophile and financier Jeffrey Epstein’s plane not once‚ but twice. “I was on Jeffrey Epstein’s jet two times. I was on it in 1993 and I went to Florida with my wife and two children to visit my mom over Easter‚” Kennedy‚ the son of the late former US attorney general Robert F. Kennedy‚ and nephew of late former president John F. Kennedy‚ said in a television interview late Thursday. “My wife had some kind of relationship with Ghislaine Maxwell‚ and they offered us a ride to Palm Beach‚” RFK Jr. revealed. “I went then‚ and on another occasion I flew again with my family‚ with I think four of my children and Mary‚ my wife‚ to Rapid City‚ South Dakota to go fossil hunting for a weekend. But otherwise I was never on his jet alone. I’ve been very open about this from the beginning.” “This was in ’93‚ so it was 30 years ago‚ it was before anybody knew about Jeffery Epstein’s nefarious issues‚ and I agree with you that all of this information should be released‚ and we should get real answers on what happened to Jeffrey Epstein‚ and any of the high-level political people that he was involved with. All of that should be open to the public‚ it should be absolutely transparent‚ and I don’t see why any of those records would have any redactions in them‚” the Kennedy emphasized. “Why would we be hiding them from the American public? I think that’s outrageous‚” the politician added‚ referring to the infamous flight logs of Epstein’s private jet‚ and the late financier’s ‘little black book’ of contacts containing the names of a virtual who’s who of top Western politicians‚ businessmen‚ actors‚ musicians and influencers.Save 40% on DNA Force Plus NOW! Try it today and see why so many listeners have made it an essential part of their daily routine! These names include former US presidents Bill Clinton and Donald Trump‚ former Senate Majority Leader George Mitchell‚ former Israeli Prime Minister Ehud Olmert‚ former British Prime Minister Tony Blair‚ former Secretary of State Henry Kissinger‚ King Charles‚ billionaires Bill Gates‚ Michael Bloomberg‚ Richard Branson and Rupert Murdoch‚ singers and actors Mick Jagger‚ Courtney Love‚ Alec Baldwin‚ Dustin Hoffman‚ Woody Allen‚ Katie Couric‚ George Stephanopoulos and many‚ many more. Epstein‚ 66 at the time of his mysterious death in a New York City jail cell in August 2019‚ is recognized as one of the most infamous pedophiles and sex traffickers in modern history. He has been accused of operating an influence peddling operation of an unprecedented scale focused on blackmailing senior politicians‚ businessmen and influencers‚ possibly in the interests of a foreign government. It remains unknown how many of Mr. Epstein’s associates may have actually taken part in illegal activities on the financier’s jet‚ or at his infamous Little St. James island hideaway‚ and how many were merely sucked into his spider web of contacts. Former President Clinton‚ for example‚ is known to have flown on the plane on at least 26 occasions‚ while tech billionaire Bill Gates starting off his relationship with Epstein only after the latter’s 2008 conviction of procuring a child for prostitution and soliciting a prostitute‚ for business reasons‚ he said. To date‚ only Prince Andrew‚ Duke of York has gotten into any sort of legal trouble for his associations with Epstein‚ although a judge dismissing a lawsuit by an accuser in 2022 after a settlement was reached. Epstein’s closest associate‚ Ghislaine Maxwell‚ daughter of the late British media proprietor‚ businessman and suspected intelligence asset Robert Maxwell‚ was found guilty of child sex trafficking and conspiring to abuse minors in 2021‚ and sentenced to 20 years in prison in June 2022. She is now serving her sentence at the Tallahassee Federal Correctional Institution‚ a low-security federal prison in Tallahassee‚ Florida. BOMBSHELL!

Ireland’s “Hate Speech Bill” or The Criminal Justice (Incitement to Violence or Hatred and Hate Offences) Bill 2022 is a radical update to Irish hate crime law. It is a blueprint for authoritarianism‚ threatening jail time for the possession of memes and even reversing Ireland’s constitutionally guaranteed presumption of innocence – you are presumed guilty until you can prove yourself innocent.
