President Trump on Sunday signed a $2.3 trillion COVID-19 relief and government funding bill that includes $600 stimulus checks for most Americans.

If they aren’t useful in overturning this fraudulent, stolen election, I’m not sure how necessary they really are. Trust me. I’ve been on my knees praying every day for the president. My wife and I waited almost 12 hours last January to support the president at a rally. And it was darn cold. But we did it. However, I don’t see the usefulness of a rally now that accomplishes nothing while the Republic dies. Are we supposed to get “fired up!” for 2022, or 2024? That’s a laugh. We will never have another free and fair election in this nation. We need a court victory. And we’re not getting one.
“In other words the “Impoundment Control Act of 1974.” means nothing.”
Pretty much.
Ok. Makes sense. Thanks for the response and I’m sorry about your hand.
Unless you have some breaking news for us, it looks like we will have a President Biden in February. And also, why would Chuck Schumer or Nancy Pelosi cave on anything?
What country would that be?
Serious question.
It may be crucial to know.
None that I know of are for sure, but the largest country that is very pro Trump is Brazil, but they have a lot of internal problems and the opposition would love to strike down their Preident, too. I would hope the Trump family has been/will be doing very careful research.
No a warning from US.
Because the Government is scheduled to shutdown Midnight December 28 if the spend is not approved.
President Trump can hold the money for 45 days.
Nancy and Chuck can shut down the Government for 45 days, or cave and write a new bill.
*sigh* yeah.
Are you saying the redlined items are moot with the start of the new congress on Jan 3?
Would they have to start from scratch to pass the redlined items?
Ditto. This guy needs to be walked to the door.
That’s what the CCP media want you to think. He outsmarted them. He invoked the 1974 Impoundment Control Act to hold back the pork up to 45 days. But when this Congress adjourns in a week, the funds are no longer authorized. Use it or Lose it! Everyone in government knows this. Funds have to be used in the congressional session when they were appropriated. Trump got Americans $600, averted Shutdown, suspended pork, and $2000 direct to Americans in standalone bill tomorrow. Pass this around b/c some folks don’t understand the details.

He outsmarted them.
The CCP Media will say he caved.
Are you sure about this??
The new Congress has a new slate for spending priorities.
The new Congress will pass appropriations through September 2022. They can amend along the way.
Everyone in government knows they must use it or lose it but POTUS can hold back which is what he’s doing.
The media will say he caved.

I don’t think this is true at all. The funds authorized will be used—giving taxpayer money to illegal aliens, etc. Plus, restricting border wall construction along parts of the Mexican border will definitely still stand. Trump gave away everything he said was important, the very things we voted for him to accomplish. You can put lipstick on this but it is a sell out.
He could’ve done a pocket veto, they’d have to start all over...no veto override.
The funds are impounded and the President has requested rescissions according to the law. Congress can vote no to rescissions but they are out of time.
The President can hold back the funds, and let them expire.
It’s now clear why POTUS has been holding back on moving forward with EO 13848 to fight the Election Theft and expose the CCP involvement. He wanted this budget matter out of the way. He will wait until the $2000 standalone bill is on his desk tomorrow, then Giuliani begins to take down Biden and his CCP connections. Likely a SP will be appointed.
