Pelosi: GOP Has A Skinny Bill For A Massive Problem | Morning Joe | MSNBC
Nobody involved in the stimulus deal gets to eat another meal until there is a solution…
See how easy that was?
i wish we could take McConnell and his cronies all the Senate republicans who said 1,200 should last 4 months and put them in individual apartments, decent in size, take any regular working Americans job.. like let’s say a Doctor’s receptionist, and obviously they would have been closed due to the pandemic. so get them on unemployment, and make them go through what the average american has had to go through for a period of 6 months! And just for kicks and good measures, let’s throw in a detainee child that they would have to care for during that time. oooh what a fantasy! And no one can drive anything other than a 2008 Toyota camry. 😂😂😂😂
or better yet. Make them work in the meat packing plants. No children in this fantasy.
jfsfrnd stop it! 😂😂 hamberder
Dump would lose 100 pounds and not look half as bad as the slob he is now.
Good luck with that one!!!
In Canada, our Federal government has helped us with 2K a month for workers without a job due to the virus. The news media never cover this for the reason that American citizens would be outraged on how their own government are treating them…. China treats their citizens better !!!!!
jfsfrnd lol not really. Way up north the same as Alaska but where I live the Summers or in the high 90’s to above 100 F . We have gone to 112F In the winter we are mostly hovering in the 40’s with a few weeks dropping below 0.
Silly Milkmaid lol you haven’t read some of the Canadian comments on the CBC videos if you believe that lie.
“The whole things a sham over the use of words, vote Democrats, Thank God for Jesus”
@Silly Milkmaid no, it’s just you silly. I’m not Canadian but I do spend a fair amount of time up there and know that Canadians are very nice.
Most Americans are nice too but not you! You seem like a hostile, angry little trumpette. I’m sure that’ll make you even more angry so let me just say this: I ain’t scared of you or you effing stupidity so bring it on. We can for sure go a round or two but leave people alone who are just trying to have a decent conversation.
@Barbara Witchey oh I’m very well read and I know faux news is telling you what to think but try a singular thought without them. By the way, your name fits you! trump would be so proud of his trolling minion.
People want MONTHLY STIMULUS CHECKS unemployment benefits for at least 9 months and PPP loans for very small businesses. NOTHING ELSE MATTERS.
@Phillip Pux Lucas yeah that trickle down conspiracy has had a lot of success. It really is the perfect slight of hand.
@Andrew Florence because there aren’t any jobs for people to go to.
@Silly Milkmaid Silly Milkmaid: I take it you don’t believe the virus is real? If we get the virus under control, we can open the economy back up. trump is too stupid to see that. And, trust me, he knows the virus is real, no matter what he says. Why do you think he gets tested multiple times a day? Why do you think he has the people BEHIND him at the rallys wear masks? Huh? Think about it. They’re RIGHT BEHIND him!
@veganleigh Of course the virus is real. Of course Trump knows the virus is real, what are you stupid? You need to quit listening to the haters on television and twitter. wow.
“The whole things a sham over the use of words, vote Democrats, Thank God for Jesus”
There will be the worst holiday spending in over 50 years without another stimulus package that includes checks for low income families.
@Indi Pillai You’ll never be happy here.
Jeff Gibson that is sooo not true!! Your simply repeating the lies the president said 2 days ago….
@Julia Sutton
Hes waiting on coal mines to open
@Steve-O_88 You have no knowledge, whether i follow guidelines or not.
@Julia Sutton I’m not going to scroll through 71 replies to find what you’re talking about
The Republicans want to pass skinny bill that doesn’t give money to the American people? The GOP has run out of gas.
Greed.
Over.
People.
Who can afford to wait till JANUARY??
@BornFree Die Free Thank you so much. i’m praying, .and haven’t lost hope. 🤗
@li’nda modena ~ No, what I was trying to explain is that you want your Representative and/or Senator for your STATE legislature to deal with the STATE unemployment issue, who will be more effective than your FEDERAL Representative and/or Senator in Congress. As a separate, but related issue, we all need to put pressure on FEDERAL Congressional REPUBLICANS to negotiate in good faith and pass a COMPREHENSIVE stimulus package, which should add additional money to unemployment benefits, allowing people to have enough money to pay rent, etc., as well as provide additional needed relief.
Was going to get back to you, to respond to the general reply you had left for everyone. Can deeply sympathize–even empathize–with your situation. We have been waiting six months to receive our unemployment due, and our $1200 stimulus check was wrongly diverted, and haven’t even received that, yet, either. Have several comorbidity factors, so returning to work is a risky affair, especially since we live in a heavily Republican county, surrounded by Republican counties, where many folks aren’t taking this pandemic seriously enough, not wearing masks, or not wearing them properly, not socially distancing, making even trips to the store for essentials dangerous. Have survived thus far only through the grace and good will of family and friends, or would be out on the streets.
In my situation, don’t personally blame the unemployment office so much, as even with added staff, the caseload is overwhelming, and delays also occur when they have trouble contacting employers who have gone out of business, or otherwise verifying the information.
Another suggestion for you that may help is to contact local media and their consumer investigative units, who may be able to assist you, as they have done with some others we’ve seen. Also, there is a form available from the CDC that can be downloaded and printed out, which you can then give to your landlord or mortgage holder, which will prevent them from evicting you until January 1, 2021 (although the full back-rent will be due on that day, unless you can make other arrangement with your landlord.) Hope this helps you, and stay strong! We can all get through this together, if we stick together and do the right things.
@li’nda modena stay safe. Hope everything works out for you
@David Eby really are you not listening?
@Erick Urias wow so you’re ok that because someone had diabetes and caught covid its ok that they died? Do you know how ridiculous that sounds?
2 Americans died under Obama’s Ebola crisis. And the Republicans tore him apart. 2!!
@R.C.B. they were kids that came here w/o parents or guardians. Kids were separated only if there was questions about who the parents were. Even johnson sadi tha tti could havegone faster.
@orphan 200 oh, then that makes it ok
They could never tear him down. He’s far above all of them in character and in purpose and always will be. All they can do is throw rocks out of their glass houses and pray they’ll land somewhere.
@R.C.B. I don’t think we need to debate on what wasn’t ok 15 years ago, because its the only thing we can possibly find to try & paint over what isn’t even on the same PLANET with OK that has been occuring these last 4 and especially this last 1 year, with our leader (s).
@R.C.B. My point about this topic still stands! 2 people died from Obama’s Ebola crisis. 2!!
Why wait for January? Why not now? WTH
January?? If he looses no bill?? What happened to November??
Because the Dems have to take the Senate and Presidency plus keep the House SO THEY CAN GET BILLS PASSED TO HELP THE PEOPLE.
@jfsfrnd Itttt issss startingggg to loookk like a shtty xmass.
@Boyd Xmas is before January 20. Yep.
“The whole things a sham over the use of words, vote Democrats, Thank God for Jesus”
Just frustrated with all this I saw a young lady with 2 small kids with a cardboard sign asking for help . Im sorry it came out that way .
“The whole things a sham over the use of words, vote Democrats, Thank God for Jesus”
Walking billboard for term limits.
Crazy Nancy!
Get rid of Moscow Mitch and you get bills passed. They’re just sitting there on his desk. He’s just too damned lazy.
@imiss toronto Mitch isn’t lazy or crazy, he is compromised!
imiss toronto hes not lazy…. on 9/11 he was busy passed a two hundred million dollar to help thoroughbred horses in the derby !!!! So they get money….
Just not people
@Julia Sutton If he were my congressional representative, HE WOULDNT BE FOR MUCH LONGER.
We are sadly approaching 200,000 dead souls in a few more days. This is an EPIC GOVERNMENT FAILURE. Very sad.
@Carol Burns 😂😂😂😂😂😂
@veganleigh I don’t doubt it. You know the expression that figures don’t lie but liars figure.
A funeral home director told me everyone that died this year died from COVID-19. They even had a twenty five year old man that broke his neck in a motorcycle crash , he had COVID so that was listed as cause of death.
@yak fisher that is alleged fraud on the part of the medical examiner. And there were those who passed away from COVID-19 who were deemed to have died from something else.
So I guess it balances out.
“The whole things a sham over the use of words, vote Democrats, Thank God for Jesus”
I PANICKED when I was on a ventilator for 12 days, hospitalized 21 in April and received a $233,000 hospital. ” I TOLD MY PEOPLE, SLOW DOWN TESTING.” “IF WE DON’T TEST, WE DON’T HAVE CASES.” Fact check it. And Trump’s son Barron’s school, St. Andrews is CLOSED, due to the Coronavirus.
Hang in there honey. I’m so happy you are OK. I suggest you having your Laywer send that hospitial bill to the Whitehouse. 😊👍
I wish we would speak more on the homeless.
@Mrspain 79 thank you. There would have to be policies to ensure that people would have their rooms checked daily and certain restrictions. I’m sure there would be a percentage that would stay homeless because they would rather be junkies but I think the idea would help at least a little bit of the problem and could have little house societies in all the states that have a homeless problem
@Mrspain 79 maybe Habitat for Humanity could help or even start a program like that
OK, the homeless are allowed to sh** on the streets in Nancy’s district. How’s that?
@John Wright I guess you needed to get that out.
Pelosi has homeless people and feses all over her district, what’s she doing? Nothing.
day after election take away the football and take away his lunch codes
I think they are called launch codes! But, I think taking away his lunch is a good idea too. Pain and deprivation is the only thing Trump understands: if we can’t eat, why should he?
@Elaine Burnett take away Frump’s chicken nuggets might be the only way to get him to do his homework
“thems fighting words” x2 made me chuckle
If people are evicted from their residences due to lack of rent money, they won’t be able to receive mail – in ballots nor to focus on voting. They’ll be too busy just trying to survive. What about that?
That’s The Repugnantcan’s Strategy In A Nutshell!!
“The whole things a sham over the use of words, vote Democrats, Thank God for Jesus”
@carla dehaas -Carla, you can be homeless and still vote. Just as long as you’re registered. Also, I’m hoping that evictions will make people more determined to vote tRump and his evil GOP out of office: https://www.usa.gov/who-can-vote
Exactly! 😡
i will crawl thru broken glass to get rid of corrupt traitor and death peddler
LOVE IT..”WE DON’T AGONIZE OVER WHAT he says…WE ORGANIZE ”
#VOTEBLUE 🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊🌊
“The whole things a sham over the use of words, vote Democrats, Thank God for Jesus”
@Imin Hiscare hahah in your dreams man red wave trump 2020. if you guys win the whole country will be set a blaze yoyr party is a joke and does not care for the Patriot red white and blue
Skinny Bill” would result in skin and b ones citizens living on the street.
People are now living on the streets without the skinny bill and they are still taking theyre time .
The lower the ppl.are,the rich ppl.turn their eyes away.
Moscow Mitch bill gives more to the rich with no oversight, Nancy gave him a good bill 3 months ago. Vote blue your families life depends on it.
Minimum Wage for all Government Officials $7.25 USD per hour!
They’re already rich, they could get zero and it doesn’t matter. Power = money. Just look how much Trump and his lizard family is getting from corrupt deals.
@ScienceBitch – Especially ugly Mitch: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=uXgCyKmunXM
Your to kind. They arent worth that kind of money.
