White House Press Secretary Sarah Huckabee Sanders utterly destroyed Nancy Pelosi’s dire predictions and hateful rhetoric regarding the GOP sponsored tax cuts on Thursday, calling-out the House Minority Leader with just one word.
Sanders was praising technology giant Apple’s recent decision to reinvest $350 billion in the US economy; paying nearly $40 billion in repatriation taxes and creating upwards of 20,000 jobs across the country.
The computer-maker also announced its plan to dish out $2,500 bonuses to its American-based workers.

Sanders was referencing Pelosi’s recent rhetoric, where she outright dismissed increased wages and year-end bonuses as “pathetic crumbs” to hard-working Americans.
“In terms of the bonus that corporate America received versus the crumbs that they are giving workers to kind of put the schmooze on is so pathetic,” Pelosi told reporters during her weekly press briefing. “It’s so pathetic.”
Pelosi Says ‘God Is With’ Democrats on DACA
Former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi believes liberal lawmakers have the moral high ground on the ongoing immigration debate in the United States, strangely suggesting that “God is with” the Democratic Party regarding DACA and Dreamers.
The House Minority Leader was addressing reporters on Thursday when she was asked if she’d be willing to accept border wall funding or a crackdown on illegal immigration to reach a deal with President Trump on DACA.
“Have you changed your mind at all about being willing to accept some border wall funding or immigration crackdown funding within a DREAM Act fix?” asked one journalist.
“We’ve said to the president the night he agreed to the DACA legislation that we have a responsibility to protect our border, and we find — think are many things we can do working together to do that. And members have been working in a bipartisan way to address that,” said Pelosi.
“But I’m optimistic. I always have been. God is with us on this. Our country is great. We know their greatness springs from the vitality that newcomers bring to our country. 80 percent at least of the American people support the DREAMers,” she added.
Watch Nancy get biblical above.
ARMAGEDDON? Visa RAISING EMPLOYEE BENEFITS Following GOP Tax Cuts
House Minority Leader Nancy Pelosi’s dire predictions of “Armageddon” and the “end of the world” regarding the GOP tax cuts continued to evaporate on Monday, with credit card giant Visa announcing it would be expanding benefits to its US-based workers following the business-friendly legislation.
According to CNBC, Visa announced the company would be “raising its 401(k) matching for employees in response to tax reform.”
“JUST IN: Visa is raising its 401(k) matching for employees in response to tax reform; company also will examine other long-term investments.”

The move makes the company the latest American corporation to drastically increase benefits and bonuses to workers following the GOP tax cut. American Airlines, AT&T, Boeing, Southwest Airlines, and others all announced renewed investments after President Trump signed the bill.
Hours before the law’s passage, former Speaker of the House Nancy Pelosi slammed the legislation; saying the new tax cuts would spark “Armageddon,” adding that it would bring about “the end of the world” for hard-working American families.
