Paul Ryan tells GOP: Budget deal a partial victory

Speaker Paul Ryan told House Republicans on Monday night that the yearlong $1.1 trillion government-funding bill contains policy victories for the GOP, but not as many as lawmakers will want, according to multiple sources on a party conference call.
Ryan (R-Wis.) has been negotiating with House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) for several days on the policy specifics of the massive spending bill, and an accompanying package to extend business-focused tax breaks. Ryan has promised to give lawmakers three days to review the package, which sets up a Thursday vote. The government shuts down Wednesday evening, so the House and Senate will have to clear a short-term stopgap spending bill to allow Congress to pass the longer-term legislation.
Ryan declined to get into specifics about the bill on the call, but promised he would go through the details of the legislation in a closed party meeting Tuesday, and would talk to the press about what he considers "wins" in the legislation. For example, Republicans have secured the lifting of a decades-old ban on exporting U.S. oil. But, GOP attempts to insert language into the bill to impose tougher controls on Syrian and Iraqi refugees were unsuccessful.
When Ryan won the speakership, he vowed to spend more time speaking to the press, and how Ryan frames this legislation will be crucial for the GOP.
The omnibus package will certainly disappoint some in the GOP, and senior aides expect Democrats to support it in much larger numbers. The tax package will likely be carried by Republicans. The two bills represent the final responsibility of Congress before a two-week Christmas break.
House Majority Whip Steve Scalise's team of vote counters will take to the House floor Tuesday night to canvass Republicans ahead of the vote.

Ryan is just another in a long line of depraved RINO's that should be thrown out of office at the first opportunity.

Wisconsin, you have sent a fool to DC.
GOP HOUSE, you have chosen a fool to lead the US House of Representatives.
Trump, I hope you read this in the papers today and give 'em hell! This is the stupidest thing I've ever heard of. Americans want our own oil, Americans don't want more refugees from anywhere.
Like I've said for years, we're in our Period of Ironies and Opposites.
We can't win because our "representatives" don't know what a "win" is to begin with. This is a loser on both issues.
