The communists brilliantly crafted this bill so as to ensure their hold on power for many many decades...

This bill represents a “fat lady” standing there and clearing her voice as she prepares to sing...,

“ They know full well nobody back home pays attention to votes, they just got $1400 so whoever is on the ballot next time deserves to be reelected.”

Yeah like that worked so well with COVID relief signed last year by Trump.

Uniparty (R) members love bring in the minority. They can rant and rave about everything they will do if you just send them enough money to take back the _____. Ridiculously, Republican useful idiot rubes are still falling for it.

Most of the damned thing is PORK. They have everything in it but real help. Like strengthening the border wall, help for veterans, help for the military, help for the police, defense of the Republic from socialists and communists and Red China, Soviet Russia, North Korea, Iran and other assorted enemies of the USA. But since we have a communist government in place now, none of this will ever happen.

The Uniparty GOP helped get rid of Trump. Now they can go back to doing what they do best, playing the Washington Generals for the Democrats while they make meaningless noises of opposition for their credulous voters.

Not to underscore the stupidity of this in general, but 9% gets into “the folks” hands and the rest is democrat buddy’s giveaways.
Wow.

Has any so called news source published a list of all the ‘goodies’ in the bill?

How did this pass without cloture? Doesn’t reconciliation rules require that the legislation be budget neutral? Does this include $1.9T in spending offsets?

Why didnt the republicans raise H with the election?? Only a few did..and what about state republicans?

Hey..even now they rant about how we need to change the rules on elections I don’t believe for a minute that they even want to change the rules or at least go to the mat for changing it.

Hey its over.

If the GOP is not too inept to ever have a unified government again, they’d better have a cash grab for their voters too and call it a recovery act.

I reverse judgement against the officer, and insist he be given a medal for taking out the trash.

i don’t pay much attention to the uniparty “smoke and mirrors.” but to each his own.

Let’s be honest: This fact that this was called a COVID relief bill normally would normally have The Usuals quaking with fear at the idea of opposing it. However, since it’s nothing but a money grab for the same Democrat machinery that seeks to defeat them every cycle, that’s the real reason there were zero R votes. It’s basically a $1.9T check to the DNC with a COVID Relief cover page.
