I was really, really sorry that the Anthony Wiener scandal did not somehow reach out to grab Schumer.

But, to give him and Pelosi their due, I have to admit that they are stronger leaders than anyone on the republican side. To have inflicted as much harm from the minority side is actually a pretty significant accomplishment. I wish republicans had leaders that could at least lead a sex addict to a whorehouse. The enemy of my enemy is my friend, but I wish my enemies had better enemies.

It's easy to look like a "strong leader" when you're asking for more free stuff during a crisis. It's a joke.

Both sides are. It's just a matter of which of their friends gets the free stuff. I thought it was insanity to print $2 trillion out of nowhere for this very reason. Next stop, Weimar.

RE: Senate Democrats Block Mammoth Chinese Coronavirus Stimulus Package
McConnell is absolutely blistering Pelosi right now on the floor of the Senate. Said they had a bi-partisan deal last night until Pelosi flew in from California and blew it up with demands like demanding smaller carbon footprints for airlines, credits for solar panel usage, and other "Green New Deal" wishes that have nothing to do with the coronavirus.

He also quoted Steny Hoyer as saying now was the opportunity for the Dems to institute their vision of America.

Pubs are saying offline that what really happened was the Dems discovered that several Pub Senators were self quarantined and couldn't vote, so the Dems could leverage their votes to get other things they want.

Schumer is out there now saying the Dems are just fighting for more for American workers, and less for big corporations. Saying the Dem negotiations have made the bill a lot better.

I agree.. the problem is it was a bi-partisan deal. They worked together to get this done and AGREED upon it until Pelosi flies and and puts her foot in it. According to everything I am reading she wanted to insert things that had nothing to do with the virus... like smaller carbon footprints from flying and credits for solar panels, etc.

Dem House Whip Rep. Clyburn Admits Economic Package Is ‘An Opportunity to Restructure Things to Fit Our Vision’

Quote:Capitol Hill erupted on Sunday night after Democratic leadership in both chambers torpedoed the bipartisan economic relief package for American workers during the Wuhan coronavirus. Before Sunday night, Democrats were prepared to vote for the package that they co-authored, before pulling an eleventh-hour stunt that ultimately halted the bill moving forward in the Senate.

Speaker Pelosi and Minority Leader Schumer insisted that the bill did not go far enough and prioritized corporations over the American people, despite a weekend of good-faith negotiations resulting in a highly bipartisan relief package. GOP lawmakers pointed to Pelosi and Schumer’s effort to add language to fit their ideological agenda, and Rep. Clyburn (D-SC) appears to agree:



The CARES Act was written and negotiated in a highly bipartisan manner; both Republicans and Democrats gave substantial input, under the advice of Secretary Mnuchin. Both Schumer and Pelosi praised the unified effort to give relief to Americans over the weekend. The American people are suffering under brutal economic uncertainty, and the purpose of this relief package is to alleviate that economic distress. The American people deserve to see bipartisan unity during these trying economic times, and for Pelosi and Schumer to use this relief package as an excuse to further their agenda is telling.

Remember this come November, they block the bill to get what they want and playing with everyone’s lives.

Quote:NYT Quietly Edits Headline On Failed Coronavirus Deal To Protect Democrats — Twice

The New York Times quietly edited a headline on the coronavirus relief package that stalled in Congress Sunday, twice making adjustments that were more favorable to Democrats.

The original headline read “Democrats Block Action on $1.8 Trillion Stimulus.”



The second version still pointed to Democrats as the reason for the stall, but added their justification. “Democrats Block Action on Stimulus Plan, Seeking Worker Protections.”

The third headline removed Democrats entirely, saying instead, “Partisan Divide Threatens Deal on Rescue Bill.”

All three of the headline changes, according to those who tracked the evolution, occurred in the space of about an hour.

To quote my late father, Pelosi nor Schumer is worth the powder it would take to blow them away. Want to Make or Keep America Great, suicide those two.

I call BS on that--of course they can vote. Just get them outfitted in hazmat suits and let them come in and vote. But they surely can, and should come to vote on this. F the Dumbocrats.

The Republicans in quarantine said that themselves. I saw two of them say it. So you're basically telling them they are full of BS.

The current rules require them to be present, and they don't have enough votes to change the rules.

I'd be good with hazmat suits, lol.

You would think this kind of crap would be put on the back burner in a time of crisis, but you’d be wrong.

This country is a joke.

Yes, I am calling BS on those Republicans (and any Dems) in this instance who say that. They can all find a way to come in person and vote immediately. We have the technology. We can make them better, stronger, faster.....

Dims lie while Americans die, and the MSM is largely complicit because they refuse to expose the lies.

This needs to be screamed at every single reporter that will listen. Trump needs to get Crenshaw and Cotton to speak at the update today.

Doug Jones voted yes on the latest Senate bill but it failed 49-46.

House unveiling its bill in just a bit. It will pass, and then the Senate can pass it. And relief will be on its way so everyone can be happy.
