Isn’t this the criminal that pulled the fire alarm to stall a vote in Congress?

“Where did the money come from?” he continued. “We spent it into existence.”

How do you spend something into existence? He must have a Ph.D. in physics.

Of course ole Jamaal and his poverty-pimp, eternal victim-hood, grifter cohorts would need to "properly distribute" all that largess.

Bowman wouldn’t know how much a trillion dollars was if it hit him upside the head. What a moron...just like most of Congress, unfortunately.

Hey, Jamaal. You deadbeat, you owe me money! My Great Great Grandfather Miller was shot through the knee while fighting to free your ancestors. He was crippled for life. My g grandfather Taylor was hit in the hip by a cannon ball at Shiloh while fighting to free your ancestors and was crippled for lie. His youngest brother was killed in Mississippi fighting to free your ancestors. My g grandfather Jackson was crippled for life serving in the Union cavalry fighting to free your ancesteors. My GGGrandfather Pendell was captured and held in a POW camp for two years while fighting to free your ancestors. His younger brother never returned after fighting to free your ancestors. My g grandfather Moore was crippled vote life by a bullet through his elbow while fighting to free your ancestors. Gimme my money, you deadbeat piece of crap!

He's letting out a secret about how bloated Fed.gov apparatchiks and leftists maintain their social-engineering programs.

With completely printed, fiat money and a Federal Reserve backstop on banks and Fed.gov - the road to full Marxism is wide open

Sorry, Jamaal, that’s going to the “migrants” who are being let in to be our new slaves. Ask Joe.
