This is not a “both sides” issue.

The Republican contribution to Congress's c****av***s relief package may not be perfect, but at least it is not a brazen attempt to leverage a v***l p******c to seize power and control.

Democratic lawmakers, on the other hand, are playing a dangerous and all-too-obvious partisan game, going so far as to scuttle a bill meant to stabilize the U.S. economy in favor of new legislation loaded with enough unrelated goodies to choke a donkey.

House Speaker Nancy Pelosi’s newly announced "relief" proposal, titled the “Take Responsibility for Workers and Families Act,” cancels the U.S. Postal Service's $11 billion in debt and gives it $20 billion in cash. It mandates that the head of each federal department or agency “shall submit to Congress a report on the actions taken to increase the use of minority banks and minority credit unions to serve the financial needs of each such department or agency."

It empowers the newly proposed C***D–19 Aid Oversight Panel to collect data on “employee demographics,” “supplier diversity,” “pay equity,” and “corporate board diversity" for any organization that receives federal funds in connection with the c****av***s p******c.

he bill makes early v****g available in all 50 states. It mandates that each state must allow same-day v***r r**********n. It has an entire section titled, “Federal employee collective bargaining and official time," referring to taxpayer-funded unions. It requires that airlines fully offset their carbon emissions. It contains new rules for improving “consumer information regarding release of greenhouse gasses from flights.”

The bill also forgives $10,000 in student loans for every borrower.

In other words, Pelosi’s proposal is chockablock with provisions for causes and interests that are in no way related to the immediate need to halt the spread of the v***s and calm the U.S. and world economies.

Early v****g? Student loan forgiveness? Offsetting carbon emissions? Bailing out the post office? Policing “corporate board diversity”? These have nothing to do with preventing further economic ruin or C****-**-related deaths. They are merely items on the Democratic Party's wish list — issues that excite their left-wing base.

By the way, the carve-outs mentioned above are just a few of the many outrageous items that can be found in the Democrat’s monstrosity of a bill, which is approximately 620 pages longer than the Senate Republican bill that they claimed was too special interest-oriented.

Pelosi’s bill is a shameful attempt to use the panic, fear, and uncertainty that the v***s has caused to accomplish purely ideological goals. It is as obvious as it is brazen, and frankly, it is d********g.
But none of this should come as a surprise.

After all, it was just last week that Majority Whip James Clyburn of South Carolina reportedly told members of his caucus that legislation related to the c****av***s chaos presents “a tremendous opportunity to restructure things to fit our vision.”

You got to hand it to Democrats: Nothing distracts them from their single-minded pursuit of power and control. Not even a v***l p******c.

First off, this whole bill is pork. The only question that needs to be answered is whether you want big business to receive the bulk of small business and the middle and lower classes to receive the bulk?

I know most cons were pissed because the banks and auto industry were bailed out by Obama. So why would you support big business now?

son of witless

A crisis is a terrible thing to waste. Pelosi and her skumbags will use this to get as much as they can. Look how they used the financial crisis to get Obama care. This is almost as good as if Hillary had won 3 years ago for them. It is Christmas and Pelosi is Mrs. Claus.

Myself I hope republicans go ahead and pass their own bill without democrates,then theycan even holler they won.But if it fails they will blame it on the democrates.One thing I don't understand is why is all this bail out talk in the first place company's like airlines have been making billions,cruise lines have been making good money,the economy is so great the best the economy is the greatest it's ever been so everybody should have a big nest egg put back for emergencies, so why is the reason we do we need to have to bail anybody out? Could it be because it's an e******n year,and some are willing to run our budget up just for re******n?Anyway who I mean the American people are going to get hit hard to pay for all this pork? Well since we can't tax the rich anymore,guess who going to pay?

But at what price? Americans are not going to look with favor on her trying to pull this during a national crisis....ESPECIALLY a national health crisis....

Because BIG BUSINESS' is who employ millions of people. I realize that along with kevy and kimmer and a few others that this is beyond your understanding. Mike

I just saw the list of N**i Pelosi's provisions in her bill. There is nothing in it remotely related to defeating this p******c. If this horrible piece of evil trash passes, America is gonna get raped.

son of witless

I think Pelosi put Obama phones into the bill. Pelosi got her Obama stash and she is gonna spend it.

They'd have to change the v**e to to a 51 yes v**e and 5 Republicans are in quarantine, so that would be hard to do.

I called her office and left a message.
Everybody needs to do it.
People need help.

This is the same tactic used by the c*******ts in the labor unions. If the employer agrees to pay a 10% salary increase, then they ask for 20%. C*******ts are not interested in raising wages, but creating problems. Everything that can be done to derail the train of capitalism is acceptable. They do not care about the means to follow, what they care about is the end they pursue.
In the same way, the Democrats try to derail what the Republicans propose. They do not care who is harmed, what matters is to impose their criteria and appear as true benefactors.

We need to v**e Pelosi out of office and republicans need to win back the house it would be a much better situation

Peter, I've got to tell you straight up, as well as the rest of your Marxist thinking comrades, that I really get fed up, tired and angry at the bull s**t your brains have absorbed resulting in the extreme mental and moral constipation you pander as T***h. For example, the $500 billion President Trump requested for business was in the form of loans and not connected to the $500 billion he requested for grants to wage earners. When workers are able to return to work it would be fruitless if the business is gone. I realize that being devoid of common sense this simple concept is far beyond Trump h**ers ability to disassemble and if progs weren't outraged at the word I'd tell them to have a little faith. The greatest and most deadly epidemic sickness to ever attack the American people is wrapped up in the philosophy and agenda Progressives advocate and their converts parrot. Evil is both cunning and stupid.

You forgot one tidbit, she has in her bill to fund planned Parenthood. Nancy would rather k**l babies than help America stop the invasion of the c***d ** v***s
