Chapter 375 Stuck in the Neck
“Saroyan is right, Britain is the best ally of our United States, and we cannot do such things that harm our allies!”
“Why can we, the United States, Become a global hegemon? That means our allies will have meat to eat with us. If we compete with our allies now, we will gradually lose our global influence!"
"There are also Luxembourg and Monaco. These are also the original tax havens. If this bill is really introduced, they will definitely protest, and their influence must be taken into consideration!”
Many of the legislators present are from the three major groups, and He is the spokesperson of major financial groups, so when he heard Saroyan's words, he naturally agreed with him.
"Haha..."
Looking at these people, Church smiled contemptuously and replied: "I would like to ask you, which is more important, the interests of our allies or the interests of our own people?"
< br>"Our current finances are in such a terrible state. In other words, our own civilians don't have enough to eat, so how can we have time to take care of others?"
"And what you said Our allies are by our side not just to eat meat.”
“I think the most important thing is that we are the world’s number one military strength. If the economy continues at this rate, it is inevitable to cut military spending. Without increased investment in military spending, military strength will inevitably decline significantly!”
"This is why the Middle East dares to de-dollarize and the EU is starting to fight against us. This is the fundamental reason!"
Obviously, when he took the stage, he had already expected someone. Use allies to argue against this bill. So when I came, I had already prepared my rebuttal.
"Congressman Church is right. Do you think our allies are just eating meat with us? Without the support of strong military strength, who will follow you!"
"This This bill must be passed, because it will not only bring benefits to our people, but also the country will have more funds to invest in military spending to maintain our overlord status!"
"Support Congressman Church... ”
Not to be outdone, Church's allies also sounded the voice of support.
And not only them, many people watching through the live broadcast also responded one after another.
Of course, despite the support of allies and large numbers of people.
However, these congressmen headed by Saroyan still had no intention of giving up and continued to impeach this bill.
But their impeachment is useless, at least not now.
Because this bill has just been introduced to Congress and is seeking to get a legislative number.
So next, Church ignored them at all and handed the drafted bill directly to the Legislative Committee, and then waited for approval.
However, surprisingly, the day after it was submitted, there was no progress on this bill.
Then the next day and the third day, there was still no news. It was as if the bill had disappeared.
Now Qiu Qi couldn't hold back his anger, and immediately started to contact everyone to find out the news.
At the same time, the Office of the Inspector General of the Internal Revenue Service.
David sat on the chair slightly tiredly, and opposite him were a group of staff from the department.
“The statistics from a few days ago showed that we had 213 votes. After your operation in the past few days, the Inspector General, the number of votes is now 228, which is 10 more than the 218 needed to pass the bill. The ticket should be relatively safe!”
Listening to Munson’s statistical report, David felt a little relieved.
The reason why he looked so tired was simply because in the past few days, he had spent countless experiences collecting dirty information about the swaying members of Congress, and then threatened them one by one to switch to his side.
But now it seems that all these efforts are worth it, at least now I have 228 votes.
Even if there are a few rebels during the voting, as long as there are no more than 10 rebels, then this bill will be passed!
"What did Elvis say? Has the list been given?"
In addition to dealing with swing congressmen, David also asked Elvis to use the power of the CIA. Responsible for monitoring the people in your own camp to see which ones are less reliable.
To be on the safe side, as long as someone dares to rebel, he will kill him if he can!
"Here you go, Inspector General, please take a look at it."
Jerry placed a list in front of him, and David picked it up and took a look. There were more than a dozen people in total, which really didn't count. few!
It seems that these days, not only is he busy, but the Freemasons are also not idle, frantically lobbying the congressmen on his side.
No, as I said just now, as long as no more than 10 people rebel, the bill can be passed steadily.
There are now a dozen congressmen on this list. Although it is not necessarily true that more than a dozen congressmen will rebel together, we still have to guard against it!
It seems that we need to give these dozen people a good beating. Even if we can't bring them all back from the brink, at least we have to make most of them return to their own camp. !
“What’s going on in Congress, where is our bill process?”
David has been busy dealing with those congressmen these days, so he only knows that the bill has been submitted. Congress, as for which stage it has reached, has not paid special attention to it.
"Inspector General, I was just trying to tell you this..."
"Giggle..."
Jerry was about to report, but a knock on the door interrupted his thoughts.
“Come in!”
Following David Yi’s prompt, a staff member came in with Church.
"Congressman Church, what's going on?"
Seeing Church coming in person, David also guessed that something might be wrong.
"Inspector General David, there must be something wrong with Congress!"
"Oh? What's the problem?"
"According to the bill submission process, a general bill can be submitted within two days at most. It is possible to obtain a legislative number, and for a bill as important as our off-site tax avoidance bill, it should only take one day to obtain this number, and then proceed to committee hearings, improvements, and other work.”
"But it's been three days now, and there's still no progress!"
"I just went to talk to the people in the committee, and they used the excuse that there have been too many bills submitted recently and insufficient coding. There is definitely something fishy here!”
After listening to Church's words, David's face darkened and he asked: "In other words, the committee may be deliberately trying to choke our necks?"
"I think so, what legislation number is not enough to fill the schedule?" It’s just an excuse. Inspector General David, this matter cannot be delayed for a long time. The Freemasons’ money-throwing tactics have achieved very good results in various states. The longer they are stuck, the worse it will be for us.”
< br>Church’s words made David come back to his senses.
Yes, the House of Representatives is probably trying to stall the bill by handing them over, so that the Freemasons’ money-throwing tactics can make better progress and win more congressmen.
If you look at it this way, you must solve this problem!
But to solve this problem, the list of congressmen that Elvis gave him would have to be delayed. Thinking of this, he suddenly felt a little angry, then looked at Qiu Qi and asked: "Tell me, where or who does this problem mainly come from?"
"In the House of Representatives, there are only four people who can block this bill like this. One is the chairman of the committee, one is the party whip, one is the leader of the majority party, and the last one is Speaker Nan Xi."
"According to my observation, this matter has nothing to do with the chairman of the committee, and the majority party whip does not seem to have given a direct order. As for the majority leader being an old fox, he has not expressed his position since the bill was initiated. I personally think it may be Nan Xi himself. The order was given!”
“Because just now, I wanted to talk to her, but her office assistant kept looking for excuses”
Church expressed his guess.
“Nan Xi!”
A hint of gloom flashed in David’s eyes.
Last time this old woman came to see him with bad intentions, but he forced her back.
In the following period of time, this old woman was quite aware of current affairs and did not directly jump out to oppose him, but she did not expect that such a trick would suddenly come at such a critical moment.
But having said that, it is really difficult for this woman to jump out and do something like this at this time.
First of all, since the other party dares to do this, he must be sure that he is busy with the bill and does not dare to make a big move against him.
Secondly, this Nan Xi is the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
She is the third most powerful person in the United States. If you really want to break up with her and try to punish her, you will definitely encounter a lot of resistance.
Even if David has collected the dirty information about her, the United States has special legal provisions for the Speaker of the House of Representatives.
That is in accordance with the provisions of the United States Constitution, except that the 14th Amendment stipulates that the speaker will be removed from office if he commits treason.
The Speaker of the United States can continue to serve even if he is criminally prosecuted or even convicted.
According to the official rules of the U.S. House of Representatives, the indicted speaker can continue to participate in congressional proceedings.
Under House rules, the Speaker will only be barred from participating in a congressional vote or committee vote if she has committed a crime punishable by 2 years or more in prison.
In other words, even if David collects evidence and formally accuses Nan Xi, she can still maintain the power of the speaker and continue to control Congress.
If this was a normal time, of course David could take his time with Nan Xi. Even if the other party was the powerful Speaker of the House of Representatives, he would still be confident that he would not be able to step down.
But now he is anxious to pass the bill.
If this continues, once he has completely gone through all the procedures and restricted Nan Xi's manipulation of Congress, he still doesn't know how much time it will take.
At that time, maybe the congressman he has secured will be poached by the three major groups and other capital groups, and then he will really lose the watermelon at the same time.
It’s difficult!
After a while, the frowning David seemed to have thought of something and said: "You just said that there are only four people in the House of Representatives who can block the bill. Now Nan Xi is blocking the bill, so if we find the other three people, Can you help us get the legislative number? "
"Theoretically, it is possible, but Nan Xi is the boss of the House of Representatives after all. If you want the entire committee to disgrace the Speaker of the House of Representatives, perhaps the only way is One of them can do it."
"Majority Whip!"
David pronounced the name directly.
“Yes, even though the Majority Whip is only the third-ranking person in the House of Representatives, he is in charge of disciplinary issues and is the most feared role by members of the House of Representatives. If you can get rid of him, let him go to the committee. Those people communicate, and those people should compromise!”
"In this case, you go talk to Josh and test his tone first. If he wants to relent, you can bring him to talk to me."
The House Whip is named Josh· Rachel, when he was in California, this person came to him once and wanted him to help promote a medical bill.
As for this person’s background, David had investigated it before pushing the bill.
What’s interesting is that this guy once received donations from the Freemasons and campaign funds from the Angsa people. He also relied on the Illuminati’s propaganda channels. He is said to be a domestic slave with three surnames. Not an exaggeration!
Originally David was not very interested in such a naughty guy, but now that he can be used, it is worth spending some time on him.
"Looking for Josh...Okay, then I'll go find out what he has to say!"
...
Capitol Building, Whip's Office.
Josh was dealing with several documents when his secretary walked in and said: "Sir, Congressman Church said he wanted to talk to you."
"Church ?”
Josh was stunned for a moment, but immediately shook his head and said: "Tell him, I don't have time now."
Church is now a figure in the limelight, and of course he doesn't want to get into any trouble for this.
"Okay."
After the assistant left, Josh started working seriously again, but within a few minutes, there was a sudden noise outside the door, followed by the office Suddenly the door was pushed open.
The person who rushed in was none other than Qiu Qi.
"Sorry sir, Congressman Josh insisted on coming here, I...I..."
The assistant following behind was a little aggrieved. It was obvious that she had blocked her just now, but she was still defeated by Qiu who forced his way in. strange.
"You go out first."
After sending the assistant, Josh frowned and looked at Church, and said unhappily: "For the sake of everyone being members of Congress, this I won’t argue with you this time, but I tell you, it won’t happen next time!”
Actually, he didn’t care because he was a colleague, but he knew that Qiu Qi was now David’s man, and he also I didn't want to make a fuss, so I just said something casual and casual.
Otherwise, if he were an ordinary member of the House of Representatives, he would have exploded a long time ago with his temperament as the whip of the House of Representatives.
Qiu Qi laughed sarcastically and said: "I'm sorry, Whip Josh, I don't want to disturb your work, but isn't the situation a bit urgent?"
"Go ahead and come find me. What do I have to do with you?"
Josh said impatiently.
“That’s it, Whip Josh, I believe you also know that my bill cannot get a legislative number. I wonder if you can mediate and ask the committee to give the number to Send it down?”
