    Garland getting denied to the Supreme Court is coming back to haunt the right.

    'Stimulus package' sounds like a future porn series. Last year already gave us 'Black Wives Splatter'.

    This had 70% approval by American public, but barely passed in Senate. R's really don't vote in the interest of their constitutes. They can't see the forest from the tress and basically still think Trump and his "brand'
    are going to keep them in power. They are quickly becoming the miniority and will continue to be irrevelant if they dont consider a broader appeal. Beyond the "owning the libs" agenda.

    is the $300 (extra?) child support a temporary measure within the stimulus package or is this something that has now been instituted for the long run? sorry, I'm unclear on the details. I read an article in a European newspaper but you know how it goes, they only report bulletin style

    This is what the stimulus bill includes:
    • $1,400.00 checks to individuals who earn <$75,000/yr and married couples who earn <$160,000/yr.
    • $3,000 ($3,600 for kids under 6yrs) 2020 child tax credit. Biden should sign this into law this week. This means that when people with children file taxes this year, they'll receive the credit tax credit on their federal refund.
    • A certain amount of funds will go toward COVID-19 testing and vaccines.
    • Student loans payments have been suspended until September 2021
    • Additional $300.00 in unemployment benefits.


    I feel like I am missing something. Lol. I just want a huge refund.

    Not sure. What would you suggest? I'm thinking, saving it until everything is opened up again and using it to help those who were hit hardest by fhe shutdowns.

    If you need to catch up on debts, car repairs, etc, spend it and then save what is left over. That's my plan. It's my wife, daughter, and I so we'll probably get a little over $3,000. Any bit helps these days.

    ^you should get $4200. Hopefully it can benefit the economy. Travel, dining, and entertainment industies could use a boost.

    Im convinced Trump was planted by Dems to dismantle the Republican party. Being out of office and we still have continuous coverage on all the con artist BS he was involved with.

    Maybe having an actual platform besides just being anti-dem would be beneficial. Identity politics is not the way to gain independent voters.

    I wish we would be voting in the finest and most intelligent of our society. But unfortunately we get losers like Andrew Cuomo and Matt Gaetz. Fuckin creepers
