Democrats in House vote to take money from American troops and hand it over to the IMF

And House Majority Leader Steny Hoyer (D-MD) says – on the floor and on the record – that the money given to the IMF could wind up in the pockets of regimes hostile to the US and supportive of terror organizations. Read this story over at Bearing Drift for the details and the video of Hoyer’s open admission.

We are incurring massive, crushing debt right here at home and we’re handing cash over to an international organization who has no responsibility to the US taxpayer so that they can bail out foreign banks, companies, and countries whether it’s in our best interests or not.

And the Democrats in the House think that’s a great idea. Keep in mind, as you ponder that thought, the White House’s efforts at silencing or hamstinging the inspectors general who are supposed to be both independent of the White House and watching out for our interests against corruption and abuse in our own government.

The Obama administration is blinding the people’s watchdogs as he’s diverting taxpayer money to agencies not controlled by the United States. Something’s definitely not right here.
