When corporations and the wealthy want tax cuts, or when there's a vacancy on the Supreme Court, Senate Republicans move at the speed of light.

But when American families are in dire need of help, they ask, what’s the rush?

COVID relief is needed. Urgently. It’s time to act.

1. K & R!

So true.

2. I love that man.

Adam's closing argument in the first impeachment trial will never be forgotten.

[raccoon]

8. That was an outstanding speech. And so true. Nt

3. Trump gave corporations and the rich permanent tax cuts,

those tax cuts will continually keep adding to our debt year after year. The tax cuts for the poor and middle class expire, yet I listen to cable news anchors spout the propaganda that Democrats lost the working class vote because they ignored them. Well, Democrats, now is the time to win them back, fuck Republicans, you should have given people a monthly stimulus check until the virus is over.

5. A monthly stimulus check would have been

a wonderful incentive to get serious about the virus. Instead the stimulus that was passed was ripe with fraud and waste by the wealthy/connected.

4. I wanted him to be President Biden's AG

I'll settle for Merrick Garland but Schiff is pertinacious.

9. Merick Garlands experience with prosecuting white supremacists is urgently needed

DOJ needs to be shifting focus on domestic terrorism

6. They wouldn't want to give the mob any ideas, Adam.

7. Uh, isn't the only the thing stopping them the 60-vote rule that could be easily eliminated?

10. We can (and will)

pass this through reconciliation which only requires 51 votes. I think Dems are just giving Repubs a small amount of time to get onboard.

[Wounded Bear]

11. Yeah, funny how that works out...

[malaise]

12. Rec

for the truth

[dalton99a]

13. And Republicans passed their 2017 tax heist on a 51-49 vote
