House Speaker Nancy Pelosi just got some bad news from Mitch McConnell. Any talk about another stimulus isn’t going to happen. She may draft a bill, but it’ll meet a swift death in the Republican-controlled Senate. Mitch is the legislative grim reaper for most of what the Democratic House sends his way.

“Let’s see how things are going and respond accordingly,” he added. “I’m not going to allow this to be an opportunity for the Democrats to achieve unrelated policy items that they would not otherwise be able to pass.”

Democrats are using the Wuhan coronavirus outbreak to get items on their goodie bag list passed. That won’t happen with Mitch around.

What a bunch of opportunitists

Mitch is standing up to the Biotch.

Remember her suggesting we all go to Chinatown?

She should lead by example!

Um, seems to me they already GOT a bunch of pork inserted in this original bill... I.e., Mitch is trying to shut the gate AFTER the horse got out..

A little damage control for selling our kids, and grand kids out for some pork.

GOOD !!

Except that Mitch already allowed a bunch of pork to get passed - unanimously. Both sides do it.

The power of the purse resides in the House.

Again, he means.

This^^^^^^^^^^^^^

The horse has already left the barn; we'll see if he can save the barn when push comes to shove on the next bill they try to put through.

MM

Resides with veto when it comes down to the nut cuttin.

Don't upset the children.

It's chicken feed compared to the help its giving folks. If Trump denied the needed financial help the folks would be pissed at him. Now, they have seen how much Piglousy and the dims care about them. They see the dims wouldnt feed them without getting to line the pockets of their friends.

You, like them, are hung up on the principle of it. The folks know who gave in for them.

Art of the Deal.

What's $750 million out of $2.2 trillion. Sheesh. We piss off a $ billion ever two days on debt service.

Yes and no.
He's trying to keep the second horse in the barn.

I cringed at the first stimulus, but looking back it's better than all out anarchy with the helpless sheep out there with no money. Trump should propose how we'll pay this back, maybe a slight tax increase in 2021. Perv Joe has been forthright about a tax increase plan in the works, so Trump isn't shocking the masses by proposing something similar to pay back all of this stimulus lunacy. Doubt that will happen, Fire up the printing press.

Agreed - and that's one BIG Clydesdale...

They just got a taste of what they're trying to achieve. The first plan just emboldened the bloodsuckers and communists. (my apologies to ticks and leeches)
