White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Tuesday that President Biden’s name will not appear on stimulus checks that will be sent to many Americans after the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill is passed.
The decision represents a break with the previous administration, as former President Trump's name appeared on stimulus checks sent by the Internal Revenue Service to millions of Americans.
“We are doing everything in our power to expedite the payments and not delay them, which is why the president’s name will not appear on the memo line of this round of [stimulus] checks,” Psaki told reporters at an afternoon briefing. “The checks will be signed by a career official at the Bureau of Fiscal Service. This is not about [Biden]. This is about the American people getting relief.”
Psaki said that the president did not believe it was “necessary” to have his name printed on the checks.
“He wanted to get them out as quickly as possible,” Psaki said.

Biden refused to sign the checks.
“C’mon man. It took me almost a month and a half just to sign 63 executive orders.”

Biden can no longer spell his first name? Surprise, surprise!!
I guess that “Cameltoe Harris” won’t fit on a $20 bill, the most common form of payment to political whores.

“necessary” to have his name on stimulus checks.....b/c "Dr" Jill offered to sign the checks herself.

We did get a letter signed by DJT explaining the deposit and those that did get a paper check, had DJT name on it.

Totally bogus reason. It has nothing to do with speed.
