    1. @rastaewabeach You mean the evidence that someone mailed to faux that got lost in the mail, then forgot to make any copies? The thing was very soft on China, the things kids got numerous patents approved by China, remember??

    1. If you wanted anything like that then maybe progressives shouldn’t have handed the means to defeat moderate Democrats by allowing them to be portrayed as police defunding secret socialist AOC puppets. It’s the group with the most votes that make the laws not the one with the biggest mouths.

    1. @wiremantw Freedom & Liberty Forever You keep saying Trump offered Pelosi $3 trillion. That is a lie. You do know what a lie is, don’t you? Trump actually was pushing for a $1.8 trillion deal with the House. It was a deal that Mitch McConnell in the Senate pushed back on and said his conference would only approve a $500 billion package.

    2. @Z06 Guy No in the last offer he made it was 3 Trillion PLUS!
      Democrats were unwilling to give Trump any political win at all. The amount was not the issue and even Wolf Blitzer asked Nancy why she turned it down that is the Truth boy look it up fact check me!

    3. @wiremantw Freedom & Liberty Forever this country was founded by white slave owners who said all men were created EQUAL HOW’S THAT WORKING OUT FOR YOU???

    4. @Claude Williams Better than you would believe And my kids will be left with an inheritance when I pass away.
      I was able to retire by age 56 with plenty to spare.
      Those racist whites who recognized that in Gods Eyes we are all created equal knowing that in the eyes of Men we were not equal.
      By the time the Civil War began not 1 Nothern Republican owned a single slave!
      Tell me why it took Southern Democrats over 100 years to grant Blacks the rights that were granted to us in the Constitution?
      The Civil War ended in 1865 and LBJ signage of the Democrat Civil Rights legislation gave us nothing the Constitution did not grant long before 1965!

    5. @wiremantw Freedom & Liberty Forever First you say it was $3 Trillion and then you say the amount doesn’t matter. Facts matter, slick. Wolf Blitzer asked Pelosi why she didn’t take what Trump was pushing for, which was a $1.8 trillion package. Wolf Blitzer doesn’t even know what specifically was in the Trump package and where that money was going, and neither do you because you haven’t read their draft proposal. Pelosi has read it. Don’t be so naïve. Just because Trump offers up a deal doesn’t mean it is going to happen. If you know anything about Mitch McConnell it should be that he doesn’t bring legislation to a floor vote unless he knows he has the votes in his conference to pass it. Trump’s so called $1.8 trillion offer was dead on arrival in the Senate, and Trump knows that. To this day McConnell is still sticking to the $500 billion line. The only way more money than that is coming out of the Senate is if democrats win the two runoff elections in Georgia in January.

    1. The Senate proposed a bill. The House passed two. The issue is more complicated than you are making it out to be and one man, or party, isn’t at fault.

    2. @Jason Hatfield If trump would have told the senate to pass it they would have…it’s all on trump he’s the president.

    3. @growler wolf Get off the crack pipe…Trump told them to pass it and they still failed. Trump is a failure and that’s why we voted him out!

    4. @growler wolf Senate may have listened to him, but that is just speculation. It also isn’t how our government functions, so is irrelevant.

  1. Sorry, man. But if you look at Trump’s tweets, it’s clear that he’s gone insane and totally forgot about Covid.

  2. The House has passed a relief package that the Senate (led by Moscow Mitch) will not accept because it gives the people too much. If it was to give money to the top 1% like the insane orange clown’s tax break they would want to give them more, but the people that voted for them, naaa they don’t want to do that.

  3. Well she can blame Republicans for not wanting to help people out. Since they are the party that trounces on poor people

  4. Please DO NOT feed the Trolls. They are relatively easy to spot: no avatar, simplistic names. few if any subscribers, simple but inflammatory statements and recent join dates (from their channel about pages). Ignore them and their ability to distract and annoy is greatly diminished. Oh yeah, I almost forgot, don’t forget you can mute them and even report them if necessary too. End of Cyber Civility Lesson.

    1. We make our money from the people that keep working. Get made at your state government. They shut you down not the Fed’s

    1. Never has been, let’s hope we win those Senate seats in the runoff, because then he’ll be much more powerful, he simply is atrocious and abhorrent. He’s going to get his though, soon very soon. He can be impeached and he’s been complicit, so there’s that…, as long as we have an AG with some brass ones ya know

  5. Look how employers are taking advantage of workers by lowering their wages when they’ve been being paid the same amount FOR DECADES!

  6. Trump would love for you to lose your house and let the bank get it for a song. The rich are just getting richer during all this!!

    1. They’re not going to rest until THEY own everything and YOU rent it from them. At ever increasing prices. NOT solving the affordable housing problem in this country BENEFITS the wealthy. SAME with healthcare. SAME with education. SAME with infrastructure. SAME with….EVERYTHING.

  7. Donald trump has lost his mind. Tell that to his Rep. Senators and that is not FAKE NEWS 👽 GOP Government of poo tin👎

    1. Smh… this got stopped last because dems wanted to give 1200 to non us citizens. Not trump…. trump wanted to get elected he said “go big or go home”. Please attempt to be informed.
