What a crock of shit they’re voting on!
- Thread starter Steel head

Hang tight-you may get your wish. Some crazy shit happening these days-no telling.
I have lost track of where this is. If they have "veto proof" majority-I think Trump can ignore it and force them to work thru holidays to "by pass" his "veto" by not signing.
I am glad there is someone calling this shit out at highest levels-it is truly insane and requires firm push back IMO.
This shit cannot continue to fly.
That's my understanding as well. They (congress) possess the votes to override the veto.
IF they work "in session" for the next couple weeks.
If they break for holidays-I am not sure that stands. I could be wrong-I am going off memory here. If they break I think it is considered "veto'd."
I agree we can't allow it to keep flying. This same shit disguised as foreign aid, has been flying high for decades. Nothing but a money-laundering operation enriching the P'sOS that have been robbing us and destroying this country. Both parties are guilty. It took an outsider hated by all in power to bring it into the light.
10's of Millions of Americans want to shit in Congress-critter's stockings. THIS is the "legislation" they try to ram down folks necks.
If I was playing for that team-I'd be sleepin' with both eyes open. Just an opinion. Clearly they are beyond salvaging if they voted for this shit. And, they are still oblivious to this. I am gobsmacked by this level of stupid.
Allegedly there's something in there to prevent use of the insurrection act as well. I looked at this but don't understand it-which is their intention I'm sure.

Because some asshole "thought" it-doesn't mean shit.
We have one document that makes us American, and they cannot subjugate it IMO. No matter how hard they try-they will always be the losers of that conflict. IMO.
It isn't the point about $18, the point is that money should stay here in the USA
This is disgraceful plain and simple. No excuse for "our representatives". They should be held accountable....
Need to build a gallows in front of capital building. That should get their attention.
As has been pointed out the comparison of a 900 billion bill and the millions "tacked on" is small potatoes.
On the other hand, it is just spitting in the face of people who are shut down by the governement. And as a bonus--since most small business are individual earners, they won't get a check as they "make too much money" aka the income is WAAAY above 75,000. (Thats actually not a particularly high bar). So not only are you shut down, you get no check AND your taxes (which are due no matter what) are spent on a bunch of backyard pony projects. I'm not saying I'd revolt--I'm just saying I'd understand...
Plus lets look at the check itself. Lets say 100m peoplele are eligible. (I think I read 88mil in this thread, but easy math, 100 mil it is!)
100 E6 x 6 E2 = 600 E8 = 60 E9 aka 60 Billion. That is less than 1/10th of the money being spent in this bill (just checked 144 mil taxpayers total. so 100 mil is a good estimate of who gets a 'check')
Someone's gettin rich off this crap, and it ain't you and me.
But Doc we have to Bailout X.....
Really? Either everyone gets a bailout or no one gets a bailout. Everyone is sucking at the teet of the govt and that's my damn cash you bastards. No one is bailing me out. I'm on my own. Good thing I was looking out for #1. And if you think the government is 'helping' you, remember you get less than 10% of the 'Relief' from this Relief bill. THey are paying you off to stay quiet while they enrich themselves. Look up 'Bread and Circuses'
Its time for change and the ballot box seems to be failing us. I don't like where we're going, but I'm not in control.
Bastards in Washington better get it on the straight or narrow or they will unleash the beast. We got lucky the first time around we didn't devolve into a French-style reign of terror.
Don't count on it the second time.
Washington is corrupt, and we need to start cleanin. Trump didn't drain it..we need a bigger pump.

Is this the bullshit that they teach in Ivy League political science classes these days?

Even if we assume this theory is true, it begs the question: Why was this needed for inclusion in an AMERICAN economic relief package.
As long as we have hungry Americans this American money needs to go to Americans.
It’s just fiat money
It’s like never never land, as long as the peasants believe in it, it’s real.
Plus it helps when your military is #1
Public confidence goes low, we get a bigger kid on the block mil wise, you end up having to pay with cash by the pound.
I do think if we don’t end up putting china back into a century of humiliation v2.0 in the next decade, we will have major problems. It’s like that really nasty pain in the but job you know you need to do, but just keep putting off.
china knows this, which is one reason they invested in making sure biden won, they know there is very good chance the big guy would no doubt kick that can 4yrs down the road and not move against the ccp, just keep blaming Russia, a country with a military and GDP inferior to the state of Texas, sadly folks can’t even keep their eye on the pea in this very basic shell game
Add to that one part “I don’t like talking politics”, and another part viewing the government as a almost religious like institution, and yeah it has a good chance of getting a little sporty

I posted some info yesterday saying the Insurrection act would be affected by the "relief" bill. Fake news. This says that was done back in July.
www.rt.com
Insurrection Act nullified in latest coronavirus bill? Wrong, it was sneaked into legislation back in summer, Twitter discovers
Congress’ Covid relief bill is packed full of under-the-table provisions, but does it really include a line restricting President Trump’s ability to deploy the military? No, but lawmakers managed to sneak that one in elsewhere.
I think it’s impossible to go hungry these days, heck look at all the fat people in the ghetto. Can’t be hungry when a 50 cent Twinkie have a zillion calories in it
The issue is empty calories and junk, thus people being allergic to everything, getting cancers that have cancers etc.
Exercise, eating food grown, shot, or caught local and laying off stuff with a list of stuff used to “make” it, that would help. But that’s another topic.
ATF is saying morale is low in the agency because people are laughing at how morbidly obese the agents are.
That is one nice thing about my state. A hunting/fishing trapping license can be had for 5$ once you have a low enough income.
It’s almost like the gov would rather have everyone eating from the same gov food bank over knowing how to fish... let alone realize those fish are theirs already..
It's going to be added to some bill. This bill is guaranteed to pass.
See if you agree or disagree with what's said on this webpage: Link
We could end hunger in America if the political leaders chose to. Obviously, they choose not. Trump didn't, Obama didn't, but FDR did. Long term, it it better to feed a man or teach him to fish?
I read it. I can tell the sponsors are the problem and not the cure.
National security for example could be achieved without a wall. Just use mines. We already have em no need to purchase.
Maybe we could even round up some of the rapists and others released by states like California to make room for people refusing unconstitutional orders and put the criminals to work installing the mines.
Grain subsidies don’t help either. Just makes landholders richer while strangling out the family farms.. and has everyone forgot about executive orders bush passed giving fema the supposed authority to commandeer farms and private modes of transportation?
You're either a dumb libtard or a foreign agent provocateur (and not a good one at that)
Your link is a giant crock of self serving shit, or a giant self-licking ice cream cone. Foreign aid provides nothing of value to us. Everything on that fluff piece is unsubstantiated bullshit.
as not funny as it is they know exactly what they are doing , government is the masters of stupid thinking there is no excuses for wasting tax payer money on the people of the country they are supposed to work for while giving it away to Iran , Pakistan , and china need it so much more than we do . Other countries and their citizens should come first while we all whip the skin off of our backs lol yea right . looks like the kings and queens in political office need a good old tar and feathering or just need to find new jobs in those countries that they seem to be working for republican and democrat alike .
Wait so they added extra unrelated things to a bill guaranteed to pass that may not make it through normally? Yeah Let me help you with that concept: Morally Corrupt.
FDR didn't end hunger. I have relatives in living memory who can bear witness to that. (There are historical arguments that he made the depression worse--and the general consensus is WW2 ended the great depression). On the whole the hunger level in America is at an all time low.
While I am in the boat that Foreign Aid is on the whole a good thing (I question things like gender studies in Pakistan--ok gender studies in general), making false claims doesn't help your case. And while foreign aid may be a good thing, for national security, how good is it for national security to piss on your own people as they suffer. Trust and faith in govt is at an all time low and this whole fiasco takes another axe swing at the trunk.
Well you and I are pretty close. The fact we have an unsecured border pouring in illegals is an open sore and definitely needs priority (prob the number disappointment of Trump admin, he ran on this, not than any other president did better) And yeah 0 for illegals. They only aid they should get is a 1-way ticket back.
We'll just have to disagree on foreign aid (its an old argument the predates us) but I will definitely agree 100%, no foreign aid has any place in a COVID relief build. And our security is worthless if half the country is ready to revolt due to lockdowns (which should be ended).
My issues with the foreign aid are
1st we are in debt. We should not be giving anything until we are not.
2nd a lot of those countries are enemies of our ally Israel. The type of enemies that write death to Israel on the side of there test rockets.
3rd here and abroad these aid systems are designed to keep you dependent not to lift you up out of your hole in your time of need.
Give a guy a fish or teach him to fish?
I’m a poor so I know a little about this.
Sending that stinking pile of shit to Florida to get Trump under duress to sign.
Congress people want to go home for Xmas.
Govt will close Monday otherwise.

Republicans BLOCK Pelosi's Christmas Eve bid to enact $2,000 checks
House Minority Leader Kevin McCarthy railed against 'billions in foreign aid' in a spending bill he helped negotiate in a letter to Republican colleagues.
This could be Trumps PATCO moment.
Dont sign and show them a set of balls they dream of having on their chins.
It would also signal a good message regards the election fraud....
Trump fights with all weapons and gives zero fucks.
DONT SIGN!
