That aid to Israel, etc. was already earmarked. Had nothing to do with stimulus $.
Try to keep up. Besides, you missed the point
Read my post again.

Fast4522 is a little slow on the draw. As usual. It really doesn't help to repeat stuff to him, he won't get it the 2nd or 3rd time, either.
Again, Trump wanted to knife McConnell on his way out, by asking for the $2K.....then House Republicans went against him. Then Pelosi didn't do anything to change it either.
People who can't deduce the simplest things (for themselves) really are not cut out to discuss politics.  Sitting in front of the TV is lazyman's guide to politics, so I guess it makes sense why this exists.
Anyway, just wondering if McConnell felt that knife ..... or if he's as oblivious as most voters.
Worst way to spend your $ is donating to political parties. Give the $ to Doctors Without Borders or something, you know, people who are actually getting something done that is good and aren't stealing from you to do it.

A clean bill to help Americans should not be tied to anyone outside these United States, nor should it have provisions to bail out pension funding. The President said the last time omnibus spending that he wound not do it again. Read his lips.

Agreed! Just vote on it as an individual or separate measure ($2,000.00) for each qualified American and get everyone on record by doing so. Let them fight with one another at a later time and date about their continual efforts to give away barrel after barrel of American Tax Payer dollars to foreign entities and countries. I have never been so incredibly disgusted by the "politicians" in this country. The resentment I feel toward each and every one of them has somehow reached an all-time high.

Seeing shit like this after watching you all reflexively defend EVERYTHING this man has done for four years is just... *chef's kiss* |
No, cheering the good THINGS he has done, and now condeming the bad THINGS.
I pity the bottom feeding airheads like you who are only able to think one dimensional. I bet TOOTSIE POPS confuse/piss you off.

You are such a f****** genius.
I am glad you find human suffering so amusing.
People are losing jobs, homes, life savings and you applaud the stupid bitch who admitted she is only using the people as pawns.
You missed your place in history ass munch. You could have dropped gas packets and laughed at the children gagging. Bet that would give YOU WOOD.

Nan said she would bring a stand alone bill to the floor on the 2k to the US of A peoples. Not a revision like the unanimous consent upping 6 to 2k but keeping the pork. Can she do it... is it in her.... Or will she reflexively rip it up like the S.O.U speech.
I know if she does and Mitch and Senate yea it Trump would sign it. Leaving the pork laiden spending bill un inked till it's leaned out. Both varieties of creatures know this. So Nan, will she put up and place the blame on Mitch for saying No. If Mitch was sharp he should send a clean bill to Nan first... and watch her eye twitch at 60hz.
Either way I don't see it happening.

For the 4th or 5th time, as myself and others have tried (obviously in vain) to explain to you, The Omnibus bill ( year-end bill to fund the federal government through Sept. 30, 2021) and the Covid Relief Bill are 2 separate bills.
The only people conflating the 2 are getting their info from social media... incorrectly.
Because they don't know how to look at a simple legislative history, I guess.

Highlighting where our government chooses to spend our money is never a bad thing, no matter when, how or why it's done.
How many times will I have to explain this to you in vain, I wonder?

The typical conservative gives much more than the lefties and we have been down this road before. Once again you’re wrong.....
