The checks would be for people making $75 k or less, right?

Is that "rich" in Mitch's vocabulary?

Did Mitch put any income caps on the money he's sending to officials and bureaucrats and organizations in Pakistan and other foreign countries?

What about the billions for defense contracting firms? Any salary and compensation limits on the executives of those companies?

Mitch has sponsored major welfare for the truly wealthy, through the wars and foreign aid and nation-building that he enthusiastically sponsors.

If Americans want a piece of that pie, they have to move overseas and get “in” with the bureaucracies and businesses that receive the aid.

Mitch doesn’t mind cutting federal checks for people - except if those people live in the United States.

You have to be a foreignor , or a defense contractor supplying weapons or gear for foreign wars , to win money from Mitch.

the other terrible part of this is they are going on 2019 income when things were booming..not 2020 when people lost their jobs.

Maybe Mcconnell delaying this until 2021 will then use 2020 income as the measurement

Mitch McConnell does not give sh*t about what is happening to the American people or the consequences in the Georgia elections. Mitch has already been re-elected for another six years.

“...GOP Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell again pronounced Trump’s bigger checks as a non-starter Thursday, saying it amounts to a windfall for the wealthy....”

In other words, Mitch is saying the American people are too stupid to figure out what he just said.....

I think he is coming home early to do a number on the Deep State. Soon the sound of iron doors slamming shut on domestic thieves, liars, and terrorists is going to ring in the New Year.

Like the Lion on the Wizard of Oz, “Oh, I hope, I hope, I hope, I hope . . .”

“Socialism for the rich is a terrible way to help those Americans who actually need the help,” McConnell said.

Uniparty Sen. Mitt McConnell obviously thinks all those super-"rich" Americans are those who make less than $75K annually. LOL. McConnell also believes the only real way to "help those Americans who actually need the help," is to wastefully spend many millions of dollars (of American taxpayer money) on moronic "gender studies" programs in Pakistan which Sen. Mitt McConnell enthusiastically voted for and approved in the recently enacted stimulus "catch-all" $2.3 TRILLION bill.

Uniparty Sen. Mitt McConnell (U-KY):

I do not get the stimulus check because I make well more than $75k. And I'm fine with that. Let those who make less get them.

But what I really want is to have the country open up again so that we can get our economy back on track and maybe I can start spending some money again. Right now, it's just piling up with this lockdown nonsense.

What the hell is wrong with McConnell? Besides the fact that he doesn’t have to answer to Trump voters anymore that is?

We could start by opening everything up, no restrictions, do it today!

Followed by a constitutional amendment forbidding any taxpayer dollars being sent anywhere outside the US.

That will free up more than enough funds for the govt to right the lockdown wrongs of this past year. Heck I bet we would save ALOT of money in the end.

For those against military spending, I caution against that. A free, strong US military, at the forefront of new development, keeps us safe.

In ancient history you could allow your military to not modernize. One can only make swords so much better, but fall a decade or so behind technology now, and you will loose any encounter you may have.

Looks like The Turtle got his neck stuck in his shell and shut off his brain. He doesn’t give a shit...he just got re-elected for six more years. What an asshole. SAD 😓

Pakistan's one of the most corrupt counties in the world...I suspect when our 'elites' visit to see how 'the program' is going they'll have someone grease their hand... mansions in DC don't come cheap...

Right? Meanwhile I’m being told the republicans “have to hold the Senate.”

...Why?

At the risk of mixing my roman metaphors, I’d prefer Caligula as my enemy over Brutus.

Why aren’t the checks for people on unemployment? That’s what this whole thing is about, people out of jobs. Yes, we make too much any other time, as most people do, but since my husband has been furloughed for 9 months, we should qualify.

Anyone who voted for 10 million for gender pakistan studies and other BS Pork, over Americans needs, should meet their maker asap.. to put it nicely.
