Answer: To create a pressure point.
So that everything else in the bill has to be passed along with it.
Few politicians can withstand the pressure.
This is how they do things.
Since Congress stopped passing individual spending bills, and shift to the big omnibus spending bills, federal government has been out of control.
Same reason for closing gyms and restaurants right after opening, to crush your soul.
“Imagine a boot stomping on a human face forever. That is your future.”
They may have miscalculated.
All the MSM can talk about this morning is how many Americans have been cruelly cut off by Trump from their unemployment benefits. The narrative they’re pushing hard right now is that millions of people will be tossed out onto the street in the bitter cold. It’s unbelievable, the level of propaganda.
Yep, President Trump is taking a big risk going against this.
But it’s the right thing to do.
If he can get the stimulus checks through then people will be able to support a fight against this monstrous abuse of the legislative process.
Dems and RINOs will do their best to stop him. The media is already lying for them.
Seen an interesting lie from the media: “The bill contains what Trump requested!”
Yeah, what he requested before the virus and lockdowns hit!
Media just pretends the whole year didn’t happen, and that they can convince people of that. Amazing.
Because the uniparty wants folks who are reeling from Christmas bills to see them as saviors when the unitary “comes through for them” with an ex tension. The unitary sucks. They want people to be 100% dependent on gov
Yep, plus eviction protection also ends this week. Nothing is more important than these mofos getting their damn kickbacks, the scamming is unbelievable.
Can’t he issue an executive order just for those stimulus checks? People are out there freakin’ out financially through no fault of their own, I can’t even imagine the hell of having my life savings invested in a business that is forcibly closed and prevented from doing business, it’s not like you can just sell it “Hey, here’s a business where you can’t do business”. It’s some real unconstitutional Nazi crap going on there “Juden sind verboten”
Maybe because this session of Congress ends on January 3rd, and they've been using short-term extensions just to keep the government funded for several months or weeks at a time leading up to then?
The game plan is to destroy small businesses, keep people unemployed for so long that they deplete their savings, and crush their initiative and morale. The hysterical fear of THE VIRUS is also cultivated 24/7 so they get us huddled in fear in our homes. They’re doing a bang up job of it so far. You soften up the population and get them not only dependent on money printed up out of thin air, but also resigned to a permanent dependency. The “pandemic” will be milked by our globalist lords and masters as long as convenient to further the transformation of society.
And after that, the Great Reset in full force. Pardon my pessimism.
How much time would it take to write a one page bill that sais give Americans $5 kilobucks. Then vote on it? An hour?
Political maneuvering/calculation, happens all the time. They play with our lives like we are puppets.
But it’s exciting that people are paying more attention and noticing.
[[They’re doing a bang up job of it so far.]]
The left are experts at it because the right in power do nothing to counter the nonsense by the left because the right is afraid of being ridiculed by he msm
Stupid, stupid, stupid!
They are not afraid of the MSM they actually agree with this nonsense. Remember how they all reconsidered their opposition to ObamaCare right after the election? We are the suckers because we actually believe some of their lies even after they reveal themselves. Barr is a good guy, right? Mitch is a good guy because he got all those judges approved, right? We keep voting for the lesser of two evils and somehow wind up with more evil never less, right?
Every year its the same story. Denting pirkylys is denting Christmas. Move it to may.
If Pesident Trump does not sign the omnibus bill written by well paid lobbyists the media will not get the big bucks. Foreign governments will not get millions of dollars, shuttered “entertainment venues will not get Mucho dinero, Congresscritters will not get $50,000.00 salary increase, etc.
Nancy Pelosi refused to bring up a stand alone covid relief bill. Could that be because the yearly government spending bill that funds “ pigs at the trough” might be a tough sell for Congress critters and Senators. I can’t wait until all those who voted for this bill to explain themselves,
oh they won’t have to explain themselves! Remember, they didn’t read the bill because they didn’t have time to read it before they voted! Nanzi Piglosi said you have to pass it to see what’s in it! So its not on those who passed the bill but at the fault of someone else!
These SOB’s are masters of deception. Every last one of them should be forced to step down and pray that they are not charged with treason.
If they pass the bill with those $2000 stimulus checks, they can get what they want.
