Trump’s demand for $2,000 stimulus checks is blocked by his own party

So exactly what does money for Gender studies in Pakistan have to do with Covide relief? What does border fences and border security for Egypt, Jordan etc have to do with Covide relief? There is more pork and slope in this than is imaginable. Billions for foreign counties etc. Then there is equally outrageous stuff for the liberal feel good stuff that has absolutely nothing to do with Covide relief. Pelosi would not bring a Covide relief bill forward until after the election and we are supposed to believe Pelosi cares about American citizens? Hahaha. Oh, Pelosi sad Trumps $1000.00 tax cut was crumbs, what is Pelosi’s $600.00? Why not just a clean relief bill with out all the foreign aid etc? Oh no, that would be to simple! https://fee.org/articles/how-10-million-for-gender-programs-in-pakistan-got-tied-to-a-covid-relief-bill/

LTC David Brown - That has nothing to do with the covid relief bill though. That's the spending bill. That's a separate bill. So maybe if you understood that, you'd keep posting about it on the stimulus bill articles right?

Also - the Democrats have been trying to get higher payments for the second stimulus bill for months and the Republicans have been fighting back against it - including Trump.

Oh and look at this: ..."while one of the prime movers of such an aid to Pakistan Senator Lindsay Graham argued that it was important to make life better for women in Pakistan." Hmm never thought old Lindsay would give a shit about women in general let alone in Pakistan.

I honestly don't give a shit - I would like the spending bill to get passed so I can get my damn paycheck next week.

SFC Kelly Fuerhoff - So this is like the third time I've seen you blow off using American dollars, ostensibly for Covid relief, used for 'gender studies' in Pakistan. I flat-out asked you for your opinion on this issue...and you avoid it. Because it doesn't fit your agenda. Because you simply have /no good reason/ Americans should be paying for this crap overseas while Americans are suffering....but it doesn't fit your 'ORANGE MAN BAD' agenda.

You have lost all credibility. You have no objectivity.

Sleep well, tonight, knowing that some warlord in Pakistan (who is ACTUALLY going to get that money) is ecstatic at the expense of hundreds or thousands of Americans put out of work by the China Virus, simply because 'ORANGE MAN BAD'.

Please turn in your American card.

PS. I would LOVE to be wrong about you. Please feel free to denounce this retarded spending over Americans.

SN Greg Wright LMAO what? Like I care about if I have any "credibility" with you. I don't recall any comment asking my opinion on it.

Look I honestly don't give a shit because our government ALWAYS gives money to warlords or dictators. So no this doesn't bother me when our government has created terrorists for decades.

I sleep very well at night thank you.

All I want is to get paid next week. I can't control the spending bill. There's always been shit like this in them. And your ol boy Lindsay Graham is the leading supporter of the gender studies aid. So crazy none of you conservatives highlight that. It's a Republican supporting it.

I didn't know there was such a thing as an "American card." When were those issued?

Trump is a narcissistic possibly sociopathic pos. He only brought up this $2000 to go after Republicans. Notice he hasn't said anything about the stuff in the spending bill AT ALL. So I'm not sure why you're railing off on me when your party doesn't give a fuck about anyone. This is why political parties are a waste. Any of them.

Your bigotry is astounding though.

Please don't use the word retarded either.

They like the status quo, Trump promised to upset that, and actually tried to do it.

So, you are telling you are informing us you won’t comment, with a comment?

MCPO Roger Collins - Why don't you open you mind Roger, I am not replying to any political statement as you can see! If I did, it would be ferocious with no holds barred. In order to avoid conflict, you could post whatever the hell you want, I'm done with you, period! Does you little brain understand that???

SFC Chuck Martinez Aw, you hurt my feelings.

SFC Chuck Martinez - You're literally doing what you said you won't do - you replied with a political statement and made a comment.

Oh no - "ferocious?" "No holds barred?" Oh my god no not that (hint sarcasm).

Why are you so angry? I can't believe this triggered you so much.
