  1. Give us our taxpayer money back! You don’t deserve your paycheck that I and my country men pay! No taxation without representation!

    1. Totally agree that the Democrats are weak as water in fighting Republicans for the needs of americans. It is sad and disgusting. If Pelosi and Schumer don’t care enough to fight for americans we need a new speaker of the house, and senate minority leader that has the integrity and fortitude to push back hard against McConnell and do whatever it takes to get him to allow the bills to be voted on. That includes having public televised speeches to the American public stating clearly how the house passed bills will help Americans, and his It is solely because of Mitch McConnell that Americans have not received any additional stimulus because McConnell only cares about protecting corporations from being sued for not protecting workers from Covid, and he stated shortly after the stimulus that he didn’t think Americans needed anymore stimulus money to help themselves,

  2. Apparently, this bill does not include “stimulus” (survival) money for people like you and me.
    I am NOT okay with this.

    1. @Claudia Moore
      Hey, Claudia.
      Getting Congress to agree to term limits would be like getting cats to march in a straight line. So, that dog won’t hunt..
      I do appreciate your efforts, however.
      As for McConnell, we still have to wait for the run-off elections in Georgia.
      Speaking of which, I understand Trump is going there this weekend.
      That should prove to be interesting, to say the least.
      And it does give new meaning to, “The Devil Went Down to Georgia.”
      Thank you for your kind words. That was nice of you.
      Be well, dear Claudia.

    1. You’re wrong. The Zionist controlling banks, Wall Street, Hollywood, media want all the power. Wake up numbnuts.

    2. @josef mengele YouTube is not the place for that talk, their smart one dimension brains cant handle a comment like that..I wonder if ddmmtt mixed with coffee would do the trick?

    3. @Yankee Doodo’ No its American’s fault for allowing them to escape Communist European countries during WW2 and infiltrate our system. America’s In God We Trust is our downfall.

    1. Nancy Pelosi has been keeping the stimulus checks from the American people just because she doesn’t want president Trump signature on them yet she’s worth $114 million dollars
      tinyurl.com/y3j39pr2 ⛄

    2. DO you really think that what the Senate is offering would make a difference thier bill don’t give the people a dime of stimulus money

    3. @John David do your home work ,you think you better then a fool but yet you talk like a well misinformed one.

  3. Moscow Mitch at it again destroying America for his own benefit when are Kentucky ppl going to realize this 🤦🏾‍♂️

    1. @Mae Gary The blue states are sick to death of supporting people who continuously vote against their own interests. Youd think the people of Kentucky would be tired of being known as Federal welfare sponges.

  4. Republicans in Congress don’t care about us. They’ve bailed out their donors and have been re-elected…so they’re ready for a vacation.

  5. Everything depends on weather Mitch wants to pass any bills, who would have thought that a “Turtle” 🐢 would be the 2nd biggest killer to Americans 🇺🇸behind covid. 😱

    1. There has to be some way to override Moscow Mitch. It’s his fault this is taking forever. Relief should’ve been passed a long time ago, other countries don’t have this problem!

    2. @E.T. Ethics MOSCOW MITCH MCCONNELL, is that better no animals here and he’s shown no concern for the people of this country,can that be Why so many do it he acts like a animal in capable of adjustment

  6. Minority leader in the house is still blaming Pelosi for everything…..smh
    Do the republicants not look up anything their party members say?

    1. Pelosi, like Biden take orders from Chuck Schumer and Adam Schiff. Pelosi and Biden are virtually brain dead.

  7. Why are folks sending $ to DT the billionaire ? They could send this to a fund for those who are hungry,evicted.So could he!

  8. How did Moscow Mitch get reelected ? An Investigation should be made into that ! WTH is wrong with the people of Kentucky?

    1. I don’t know man but I tried. You can’t put out a campaign sign without risking your life. The people are crazy.

    2. Sadly in a state like Kentucky Satan or Adolph Hitler could run for Senate and if they have a letter R next to their name, they’ll win

    3. @Lana Kahl I do not mean this against anybody , but Kentucky is a poor state and a under educated state . It makes no sense that people in Kentucky would vote for somebody that refuses to do anything to help them . I truly wonder is the vote counts in Kentucky have been manipulated .

      **Kentucky has long been a poor state and one of the most poorly educated, so Kentuckians are accustomed to finding ourselves near the bottom of state rankings. “Thank God for Mississippi,” we mumble in relief.

      Now comes a Web site, 24/7 Wall Street (247wallst.com) — a self-described source of “insightful analysis and commentary” for stock investors — with a ranking of “The Best and Worst Run States in America.”

      Kentucky, dear friends, was rated 50th, “the worst-run state on our list,” according to the Web site.

      Not even Mississippi could come to our rescue.

      To make its assessment, 24/7 Wall Street said it analyzed data ranging from state credit ratings by Standard & Poor’s to violent-crime rates, median household income and other estimates by the U.S. Census Bureau’s American Community Survey.** full article here if you feel the need to read all of it . http://archive.courierpress.com/news/web-site-ranks-kentucky-dead-last-but-other-states-are-contenders-ep-446160174-324897371.html

    4. they def should look into that,bet it was fraud,oh god i hate that word but i have a feeling they didnt vote for him,why would they?unless he is taking care of kentucky

  9. No stimulus for us under employed and protection for corporations against wrongful death suits gimme a break

  10. Georgia render McConnell powerless and vote in Osoff and Rev. Warnock for covid relief for all Americans. Y’all are AMERICA’S hope and potential saviors, please help us all.

    1. please georgia vote blue,again all our lives depend on you ,thank you and please be careful out there,this is def a crazy world

  11. Imagine being a republican who lost their job or can’t pay for food because of the pandemic, and supporting the party who doesn’t care about all that because they’re too afraid to upset the loser in the presidential election.
    Sweet life decision right there! 😅😂🤣

    1. Widespread gerrymandering and voter suppression of the very young, very old, people of color and the poor are all too frequently common denominators in situations like this. All of We the People have the responsibility and purview to join in the ongoing work to eliminate the poison intrusion of Big $ upon our elections/govt. It is the causative factor. Overturning Citizens United (progress is being made), Campaign Finance and Election Reforms
      are imperatives. Civic action does not require lots of time, or even any $. We can each choose something to work on, and ask our friends and families to do the same. We must clean up, restore and reclaim our rightful place in our govt. of, for and by the People-not corporations. There is also the lack of accurate information, people being misled.

  12. Vote blue in GA to knock McConnell off his imagined throne from which he chokes America. Let legislation work the way it’s supposed to.
