While speaking with the Riders Alliance on Monday, Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) discussed the timing of passing the next round of coronavirus relief, the American Relief Act, and said that “we’ll try to get that passed in the next month, month-and-a-half.”

Schumer said, [relevant remarks begin around 20:00] “[I]n the new bill, which President Biden has put together with my help, there are lots of other — there’s more money for transit and other things. It’s called the American Relief Act, and we’ll try to get that passed in the next month, month-and-a-half.”

Much more important to convict Trump than to follow through on their campaign promise!

Interesting how the imperative has changed, now that they have power. Do you think the media would notice?

Naw.

Wouldn't it be easier just to raise wages, salaries, and the price of everything by 100%? Same effect in the end.

Yeah, just be sure to provide bonus checks to everyone who is still working.

Jackasses...

I had to hear from two friends this weekend who are retired and they received “relief” last year.

Effing crazy...

This tells me they don’t have the votes to blatantly bail out dem cities and states in an obviously biased bill. He needs time to bend some arms.

Translation:

“Trump exposed us and made all of us do-nothing leeches look like the incompetent, corrupt idiots that we really are. We have to get back at him viciously, so you’ll understand if we take a break from sweeping a few crumbs off the table for you ingrates.”

It appears Mitch and the CONservatives have all put corks in their mouths now that it isn’t DJT suggesting checks to working Americans.

The Democrats have more important matters at hand: destroying the accomplishments of the Trump presidency and personally destroying Trump himself, with some going after supporters/associates of his for good measure.

Wonder if Bernie will now accuse Schumer of wanting to starve children and kill old people, as he’s been saying about the Republicans.

Nah, I guess not.

Chuckie needs to ‘target’ funds so most all of it goes to white liberal elites and their pet victim groups. (the democrat ‘base’)...

Oh, and a big chunk will go to corrupt democrat cities = cities that threw their tax funds away on kickbacks and corruption.
