Why is Dem controlled Congress abusing the poor at this point? No 2nd stimulus check when ppl desperately need. Ppl are NOT pawns. And then focusing on this 25th Amendment at THIS time? It very poor leadership. This is not what ppl, business, local and state gov need. They need solid government response to the economic fall out of covid, not useless game playing tactics. Enough already! An election is to be held in less than ONE month, why does she focus on this NOW? Maybe Pelosi needs to have some medical intervention herself!

Feel free to reply to any comment by clicking the "Reply" button.I guess you haven't been following the news these last 5 months. The Democratic House of Representatives passed a bill in June called the Hero's Act that would have funded the cities, individuals, and small businesses. The Republicans (McConnell refused to bring it for a vote on the Senate floor), countered with a bill that did none of the above. The only ones the Senate bill offered help was the large corporations.
The Dems refused to compromise on such a self-serving bill and held out for negotiations. Mnenuchin, in charge of the Republican negotiations refused at first to even talk to the House Dems. When he finally relented, he refused to even hear their compromise suggestions. McConnell and Mnenuchin called off any and all negotiations in September and went on recess. They recently returned but was derailed by Trump on Thursday. Nothing can get passed without Trump's signature .
Its the Dems that care about the citizens of the country, not the Republicans. The Republicans have been practicing "do nothing" since 2009. It started with the Tea Party, then was taken up by the Freedom Caucus. Its the Republicans which have been the primary stumbling block for getting anything done in this country for the last decade.

You’re an ass, and I suspect a Russian troll.
If not a Russian troll then a damned low information citizen and I’m being generous.
Congress has a detailed second stimulus, the Senate is being the cock blockers.
Google is your friend, look it up while the adults converse.

That’s a poorly worded Republican pitch if I’ve ever heard one.. The US House of Representatives has had a second aid plan ready for months! ..or did you mean the US Senate - run by your favorite obstructionist, mitch mcconnell?
Moscow mitch and his majority of republican cronies have refused to consider additional aid to US Citizens. Nancy Pelosi and the Democrats in the House are the only ones in ‘Congress’ doing anything ..beyond attempting to ram a radical republican supreme court nominee through before they’re voted out..

Why are you not looking at this behavior and realizing that the Dems are no more concerned about the peasants than the Repubs? They both serve the 1% rather than the masses, that is why the Dems are currently more interested in getting more power than saving the the poor.

Well I hope somebody figures out that mess in MN. To be having funds stolen that long and NOONE has put a stop to it? It's unacceptable.
"Dem controlled Congress"? You are seriously confused!

Yes. I do often use the term incorrectly. House. I think of the House when I say Congress, but they are indeed controlling the situation in Congress with initiating it, aren't they?
@Flowerwall explain how it helps us if the House passes something & the Senate shoots it down? (Becuz that Never happens, right?)
The bs is deep this morning!
