The Dems wanted to ensure that a significant portion of the money was earmarked to small banks who were far more likely to get relief to smaller small businesses. It was clearly the right position.Quote:

They didn’t want to just wait for these issues they see as important for the American people because they believed that the Republicans may not being willing to agree to more stimulus packages. McConnell has proven that to be true as well.
The final bill was much closer to what the Dems asked for so they see it as McConnell being the one that delayed the bill. They were largely there on day one and just had to wait for Mitch to stop holding his breath.
correct, that you didn't address what I said or anything on topic. thank you for agreeing with me.Quote:

Was someone defending Pelosi for taking her mask down and I missed it? Is someone going around saying how Nancy Pelosi inspired them to get into politics but people need to stop being mean to her? Who is this cross-thread single minded argument with?Quote:

even the way it was described was more partisan type BS, her more stylish mask, how wonderful Pelosi.Quote:
Pelosi pulls her much more stylish improvised mask down to speak on the House floor.
They all should be wearing their masks and they are all *******s. Is that better?Quote:

From VICE media, I've seen a bunch of this stuff direct, but this is a decent summary of the fear people in China live with from "their" government.
Here's a Vice report on Chinese media: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QMusEWXSQa4Quote:

US Secretary of State, Mike Pompeo revealed this on Wednesday while speaking to Fox News about why greater transparency from the Xi Jinping government was required.
''Even today, the Chinese government hasn't permitted American scientists to go into China, to go into not only the Wuhan lab but wherever it needs to go to learn about this virus, to learn about its origins,'' Pompeo told the news channel.
lol, if china wants American scientists there, they'll keep them around, if they dont, they wont.Quote:

The truth is, from a neutral perspective, the US is currently pushing a HEAVY anti chinese propganda campaign (which I'm not necessarily mad at btw, but they dont seem to be getting anyone on board, so **shrug**), and china is very aware of it. They dont want America around them right now. They dont trust us the way we dont trust them.

How old are you? Do you have a older sister named Nancy that got more praise from mom and the bigger piece of cake on your birthday? This stuff is meaningless. They all got called out for not having a mask but you are so thin skinned about it not being FAIR enough. You honestly sound like my little sister when we kids.Quote:

I don’t think you read my posts. I don’t care if Pelosi gets criticized, she certainly has been deserving. I have said this several times and several different ways. I don’t think any of these people are worthy of hero status.Quote:

In other cases the criticisms won’t be EVEN or close to even because the underlying reasons aren’t close to EVEN. Trump lies, makes stuff up, throws people under the bus, takes credit for stuff he doesn’t deserve credit for, abuses his office, self-deals more than any politician in any of our lifetimes. Doing more bad will get you more criticism not EVEN.

Exact quote from Trump:
All attempts to say he didn't say that we should inject disinfectant into people are null and void. Anyone who tries to pretend he didn't say these words has absolutely no credibility. I'm sorry that you choose to defend a moron because he will cut your taxes or attack someone and call them a mean name. But the fact is that the man you're defending is out here risking lives.Quote:
And I then I see the disinfectant, where it knocks it out in one minute, and is there a way you can do something like that by injection inside, or almost a cleaning.
the bold is called a question. the video helps with context because he was looking to the side and ASKING that person.Quote:
