what it means, in a nutshell, is all those concern trolls that graced the prior thread in recent days, trying to get the CARES act defeated, weren’t paying attention. For decades now, when a President signs a bill, he can attach a signing statement which his directive to the agencies on how to implement the bill. Basically it’s a back-door line item veto whereby Congress passes the law and POTUS then decides how it will be implemented - he directs the Executive Branch.

I've not seen or heard of this signing statement before, but it appears to be a kick in the teeth to Pelosi and Schumer, and the rest of the commies. Smirk!

Schiff and Nadler are getting some chubs in their pants and likely preparing for Impeachment Folly Version 2.0. Them's fightin' words in that signing statement. Trump just extended his middle finger to the Pelosi-Schumer Duma.
