As Americans across the country grapple with uncertainly over the impact of Wuhan coronavirus, Democrats in Washington D.C. are doing everything possible to exploit the crisis.

As reported Monday, House Speaker Nancy Pelosi crammed a number of irrelevant and damaging provisions into a previously bipartisan relief process. Democrats in the Senate, led by Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, took her bait.

One of the major power grabs in Pelosi's bill would federalize elections and increase the chances of voter fraud.

Here are the "top five most egregious provisions" of Pelosi's bill from the office of Ranking House Administration Committee Member Rodney Davis:

“Remember they impeached Trump for withholding aid to Ukraine. Now THEY are withholding aid to the American people.”

Nancy Satan is so compassionate. Why aren’t you picketing around an L4 lab with a rent-a-mob, ratface.

...and as for your brain-damaged spawn, “She cut your head off and your won’t even know you are bleeding”.

I’ll shoot the dandruff off your shoulder without disturbing a thread of your clothing.

LARGEST PSYOPS in world history. Should be open season on ‘rats and propagandists for the damage they have done, the anxiety, stress and destruction they have caused.

This might be very naive of me but why doesn't President Trump's people put together a streamlined bill with only the essential relief elements included and give it to a loyal senator and representative to introduce as a bill in their house of Congress. Instead of hundreds of pages, it is a dozen of so. All pork barrel stuff (from either side - although we know who the big abusers are) is eliminated. Only the critical things that everyone can agree with remain.

President Trump goes on the air in a press conference and chastises in general people playing politics with important legislation in a crisis and then can list some of the egregious examples, laying them at Pelosi's and Schumer's feet if he wants. He then explains a bill is being introduced into each house to address the critical needs right now. There will be no amendments to this bill, no riders attached but a straight up or down vote on this package. If so much as a comma is moved, the President promises to veto it and the publicly reveal the people who stand in the way of getting relief to those who need it by trying to take political advantage. The President can state that political quibbling on non-essential elements can take place later after Congress deals honestly with a true, non-politicized relief package.

The President has the bully pulpit and the American people behind him, so use it. I think that he'd put his political enemies in a tough spot by forcing them to defend why they are more interested in special interests or partisan political plays than in helping the American people. I think this would be a great way to flip the bird at the Swamp and show what a true leader can do.

Also the result of the hundreds of thousands of Americans who fought and died for our right to vote...starting with the very first fight with George III ... right up to the last Clinton victim.

You don’t understand. The Dems are stalling this legislation so that they can position their stock investments to benefit from its eventual approval/passage. They will agree to some concessions AFTER their limit orders are all in place. Its all about insider trading doncha know.

So the multimillionaire Dems, somehow now wealthy on modest public service stipends, are actually crooked, selfish insider stock traders? Along with doing favors for lobbyists and foreign agents? Who knew? /s
