House Passes Stimulus Plan With No G.O.P. Votes
House Passes Stimulus Plan With No G.O.P. Votes

WASHINGTON — Without a single Republican vote, President Obama won House approval on Wednesday for an $819 billion economic recovery plan as Congressional Democrats sought to temper their own differences over the enormous package of tax cuts and spending.

As a piece of legislation, the two-year package is among the biggest in history, reflecting a broad view in Congress that urgent fiscal help is needed for an economy in crisis, at a time when the Federal Reserve has already cut interest rates almost to zero.

Trump could have acted earlier on China without your fake impeachment/ Russian hoax.

You were calling him racist...xeno...................He could have acted earlier if it weren't for you people.

Who called him racist? ONE Asian congress woman who no one knew even existed.... your right wing snowflake phony, faux outrage whine, over her concern for fellow American Asians and making a big deal out of her free speech, is so Trumpian....

God almighty. I'll start with a Pulitzer winner. Boy you people are something else.

9:50 am: Trump administration wants an $850 billion stimulus plan, reports say
Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin heads to the Capitol today to discuss a third coronavirus response package with Senate Republicans as policymakers try to stave off economic calamity.

The Trump administration wants an $850 billion economic stimulus plan, Politico and The Washington Post reported. The White House’s proposal would include about $50 billion in aid to an airline industry battered by the global pandemic, according to the Post.

Congress already passed $8.3 billion in emergency funding to help stop the coronavirus disease’s spread. A separate plan to expand paid leave benefits, boost unemployment insurance and make testing more affordable is working its way through the Capitol this week. —Jacob Pramuk
Coronavirus live updates: Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson released from hospital, Mulvaney self-quarantines
.......................................................................................................................................
The mistake being to refuse to cooperate with Dems in the wake of the financial crisis by constantly trying to shrink the size of stimulus packages. As much as anything this caused the weak, prolonged recovery the Repubs blamed on Obama. This proposal is just another example of epic hypocrisy.

Did you go vote in you Democrat primary today? You know, the primary being held in the midst of a horrifying pandemic and also happens to be staffed by senior citizens?

We should have Gillium in there. He is so reliable. The next Obama.



You got no business lecturing others about responsible behavior.

Why Florida, of all states, would keep their primary open is beyond reason.... it's like the R governor wants all the Democratic Florida senior citizen's to die....

Emergency stimulus to soar above $1 trillion
The White House and Democratic lawmakers are pushing proposals with a vast array of provisions that will easily top $1 trillion once negotiations begin Tuesday.
Emergency stimulus to soar above $1 trillion

The government’s economic stimulus is set to quickly balloon into trillion-dollar territory in the coming days, the largest rescue in modern American history, as major industries flood the Trump administration and Capitol Hill for aid while huge swaths of the economy stall from the coronavirus crisis.

Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin will meet with Senate Republicans behind closed doors on Tuesday to present lawmakers with options for aid to airlines, hotels, casinos and small-to-medium-sized businesses. The White House was pushing for a package of more than $800 billion, POLITICO reported Monday, and on Tuesday the Treasury Department was preparing to unveil a package of $850 billion including more than $50 billion for the airline industry, $250 billion for small-business support and $500 billion for a payroll tax holiday. A senior administration official acknowledged the proposal could climb above that Tuesday by the time it’s unveiled.
...................................................................................................................
So..........the 2020 deficit will be $2T+.

Good thing Don has a plan to eliminate the debt .

Trump vowed to pay off the national debt in 8 years. But he’s touting a budget deal that would raise spending by more than $300 billion.

Was the 6 month fake impeachment worth it now?

I am trying to calculate how many pounds of brain damage it requires for someone to blame the December impeachment for Trump's colossal fuckups in the handling of the coronavirus crisis from January to the present.

Six? Seven?

The Repubs fake acquittal, flying in the face of overwhelming evidence of Trump's guilt, would be the low point of the error.........sorry........era of Trumpery if not for that distinction belonging to his election.

READ: The Alarming Report That Seems To Have Jump-Started Trump's COVID Response

President Trump’s surprisingly sober press conference on Monday was reportedly sparked by a British study suggesting that the U.S. could face 2.2 million fatalities if the coronavirus epidemic goes unabated.

The report — embedded below — was put together by a team of epidemiologists at Imperial College London.

Though it has not been peer-reviewed, the report made shockwaves after being sent to the White House on Sunday, its lead author, epidemiologist Neil Ferguson, told the Times.

Below are highlights from the report.

I don’t see how $500 billion in payroll tax cuts helps families who are not working. Looks like a hack door way to defund Social Security and Medicare.

Because if you don't have employers, you don't have employees. If we don't maintain the infrastructure, then the recovery will be longer and more painful.

Pelosi didn't pass payroll tax cuts. I'm agreeing that anything McConnell proposes will be for the top 5%.

Oil wells, planes and cruisships don't go anywhere. Shareholders are NOT infrastructure. Sometimes, like with banks, they don't actually have physical assets.
