Ordinary Americans have done a phenomenal job of making $1200 last 8 months, and whether they need it or not, Congress seems to be headed for a deal to help American citizens and the starving corporations.  

Why the sudden change?  Mitch was staunchly against this 2 weeks ago, and not only will the bipartisan bill pass, but there is likely to be another direct payout.  

Anybody got any ideas what has happened to make the GOP leadership in the Senate come around on this issue? 








(Gonna lose the Senate if they don't pass Stimulus #2) 

Trump offered Pelosi a package that would have given twice the relief back in October. Pelosi blocked every effort to reach a compromise with Mnuchin until after the election.

Be that as it may, this is a horrible deal for every American citizen. The lockdowns have left many Americans broke and jobless. As Tulsi Gabbard said, $600 is a slap in the face to those who really needed help through no fault of their own.

Well ...it passed and I’m disappointed for the American people. This should have landed around August, and we should be on Stimulus 3.  I really hope President Biden will get on stimulus 3 early.

I agree we should be closing and taking safety precautions to avoid the spread of this deadly virus, but the apathetic response by our federal government is shameful.  This haphazard leadership that forces people to put their (and others) health on the line to survive is why we are leading the world in deaths and cases. 

And of course these losers are at the front of the line for the vaccine.

FWIW, I am griping about both sides.

There would not be a need for a COVID relief package if not for incompetent local and state government - the worst offenders being hypocritical liberal Democrats. If by losers being at the front of the line, you mean those who voted for this awful bill, then I agree with you.

Daily dose of Hooter obtuseness...
1.  Incompetent State and local leaders? Without them we would have lost millions of people to this plague. 
2. The Senate has been the holdup.  Attempting to shift blame to Nancy Pelosi is silly. 

However, You and Tulsi are correct.  This is a slap in the face to Americans.
