Will the President use a Pocket Veto on the stimulus bill?
He definitely could. This is important because Congress cannot override it.

23 Dec 2020 ~~ By Scott Boyd
President Trump wants more money for Americans and less money for foreign aid, lobbyists, and special interests, so he rejected the stimulus bill yesterday evening during a speech on the matter. Speculation is spreading that he may not officially veto the stimulus package, opting instead to simply not sign it. With Congress adjourning no later than 11:59 am on January 3rd, that means Congress has until today at noon to get the bill on the President’s desk to prevent a Pocket Veto.
A president presented with a bill from Congress has 10 days, excluding Sundays, to sign or veto it. The exception is if Congress adjourns during that time period, in which case an unsigned and non-vetoed bill essentially disappears. The “Pocket Veto” time period happens to fall perfectly to run into adjournment IF they do not get the massive bill over to him by noon today.

​

~[snip]~
Democratic Congresswoman Ilhan Omar Tweeted a simple proposal: Give the people the $2000 in a standalone bill and deal with everything else separately. That may actually be the only option left for Capitol Hill unless they want to try to force the current bill onto the President’s desk before noon today and rush an override of his expected veto.
Will Congress push the bill to the President before noon? Will the government shut down after December 28? Will Ilhan Omar be the surprising initiator of the President’s plan? So many questions. Grab the popcorn.

Comment:
I totally agree with Trump. The Deomcrat Porkulus Covid-19 Bill gives nothing to the Ameican taxpayer and is so full of Democrat Pork that now makes DC the Ptok Capital of th world rivaling the city of Smithfield NC.
Prlosi once again wants a Bill passed before we can see what's in it,
What little we know shows that the Bill is not about helping Ameicans but, once again padding Democrat pet projects and funding America's foes like Venezuela, Pakistan, Cambodia and others...
Nonetheless, Yes there are some parts that will actually help workers and families:

• $30 billion directly provided to states to help them stabilize their funding for schools.
• $10 billion to help alleviate the harm caused by the coronavirus on higher education institutions, while providing them with added flexibility to continue operating during the crisis.
• The legislation also would help current borrowers with their student debt burden and GI Bill benefits.

However, the Pork and wish list of the Progressive Marxist/DSA Democrat Leftist far out weigh the assistance to American taxpayers. For this reason alone the paltry amount of $600,00 to Americans is an insult,

It would be a fitting sad end to the disgusting pervert's administration.... 40M Americans out of work and now he's so pissed off about losing the election, he's denying them unemployment benefits and the rest of us a stimulus check which many people could use.

Trump has gone from being pathetic to being sad and pathetic.

Which has what to do with the fact that your sexually perverted party is sending billions overseas?

I'm not a Democrat or a Republican. Both of those congressional party leaders signed off on the bill. So I guess your question is why is YOUR sexually perverted party sending billions overseas?

BTW...as you probably don't know because, well, you're a dumb ass, the portion of the bill that has foreign aid and other non-covid items is not part of the covid relief package. Its a separtre Omnibus spending bill that will keep the government operating. We could have parts of the government shut down once again on Monday and a President who is too pissed to care. Its what you voted for. Enjoy.

We bribe for countries to do what we want. Trumpy had 4 years to oppose it. He's just pissed McConnell won't let him have his coup

Trump stopped sending money to nations that voted against us in the UN.
I realize you don't know this because you only read headlines.

 

[Meister]

This could have been passed months ago if not for the pork Pelosi stuffed into it.
I sure wish there was a line item veto clause.
With this covid stimulus Bill for the people, 15% goes to the people, the rest is just the redeistibution of wealth.
And the liberals back it. WTF?

Turtle and his GOP buddies signed off in the Senate. But lets blame only the House...right?

Are you for it? Or, are you against it?

Have you thought about the amount of time given to read 5600 pages by Pelosi before the vote?
Doesn't it sound strangly familiar?

Once again, the Senate passed the bill as well. You're blaming one House for the bill.

I'm for it only because its an omnibus bill. I think payments should be higher too as does Pelosi and the President. Will the Senate allow it? Should the Senate allow it?

Nobody had time to read the friggin' Bill. Just like the Obamacare, nobody knew what was in it.
I think they should have a stand alone COVID Bill for the people, not all this other pork.
As it stands now? No, I don't go along with it.

Could have been passed months ago if Mitch hadn’t put his foot down on any additional COVID spending.

The only pork people are talking about has nothing to do with the stimulus, it’s just stuff from the appropriations which was passed in the same bill.

 

[Doc7505]

With Trump who knows But I can't really see him explicitly vetoing UI benefits, eviction moritoriums for people. HE doesnt'want to be MORE unpopular. HE just wants to fck up congress. And he doesn't care about the pain he causes doing it.

The "Pocket Veto" is exactly that a veto of the Pelosi Schumer Porkulus. Let the new Congress deal with it once more....

 

[colfax_m]

Anything that is not relevant to Covid and stimulus of the Ameican Economy...

You guys just don’t seem to understand that the COVID stimulus was put into an omnibus appropriations bill. All that stuff you’re referring to as pork is just regular appropriations that we spend every year. It wasn’t put in there as part of the stimulus. It was already there.

I believe thats one of the biggest problems, "regular appropriations"
Here is a quote from a different article other than the OP,


It's the oldest trick in Washington: Take a bill that symbolically is overwhelmingly supported by the American people on its title alone (COVID-19 relief for those struggling due to the pandemic). Then attach every pet project possible, in this case by combining it with an omnibus spending bill, and away we go.

That would be a miracle, in that the "New 117th Congress" has yet to be formed, create a Bill, pass on it and have the Senate ratify it before "Biden" will sign it....
