I'm starting to think the whole thing was fake news to begin with...I did not see any of the stuff ID posted on any of my trusted sources. It seems like it was a misinformation piece designed to make Dems look stupid.

Less than 12 hours ago you were defending these things.  Now you're calling them "fake news".  JHC

I am in favor of those things in general. And i also said most of those things wouldn’t make it through.

Fwiw, there is an oversight committee, and no companies owned by the President, nor the cabinet (Devos) can reap any benefits. I consider them pretty successful, and relevant wins for Americans as a whole.

Nope, it still has to go back through Congress and Nancy's demands.

Your trusted sources are obviously left wing rag sites. Pick better sources.

Like mitch, if you missed all of her demands, seek better sources.

In times of crisis, shouldn’t the approval be at 80-85 percent?

It’s hard for me not to believe you’re a trump cheerleader after 3 years of posting pro trump stuff.

A left wing rag that didn’t cheer on Pelosi by printing her demands?!

A left wing rag that didn’t print her demands word for word?

What are you trying to say? If they didn't post any of that then they shouldn't be your trusted source. MSNBC even questioned her about why those things belong in an emergency relief bill.

I’m torn on that last part. People should not profit off corona, and people are absolutely going to get “laid off” if it means 1000-1100 a week in their account.

I want the bill to pass quickly, as I want people getting help. I won’t get anything because I’m fortunate enough at this point to be able to work remote and make too much to qualify. I’d like to know the limit on this. This can’t become a democratic welfare bill and encourage people not to work.

Seriously, I would say *those* people are in the same boat who take advantage of unemployment on a normal day, which is really, really small. They said today it's meant to help governors with outdated unemployment systems get money to people quicker.

They're still negotiating.
