    Come on stop the bull schiesting. Trump and responsible and younactually have the audacity to claim that the Trumpocity is a "grown up".
    What honest and/or intelligent person believes that North Korea snuck "Biden ballots" into the US through Maine or that Bigfoot is a voting machine hacker programmer, or that Giuliani is not totally nuts, or Tump really cares about Americans.

    I was born at night but not last night.

    See your quip on Hillary is an example of people putting Schiest into places where it does not belong. That said we do not have any proof except MUS that Hillary owes the Haitians anything.

    It is Big Foot that owes them 10 Mill.

    This bill deserves to be in the trash.

    Americans: Yay we get $600!

    Maybe for a $1000 You all can sign your lives away and be slaves to the government.

    That's what's coming. Slavery. Serfdom. To be servants of the plutocrats and kelptocrats, no human, civil or individual rights whatsoever, begging for crumbs from the lords.

    To be clear any Democrat or Republican who voted for this is a idiot.

    I'm glad Trump is going to veto it.

    Funny to see Nancy on Twitter now saying she is for $2000 to Americans to Trumps veto response just to try and pass her BS deal. Screw that.

    Well, to be fair, this bill included government spending for the rest of the fiscal year. Some of that foreign spending could be to fulfill foreign policy objectives.
    But I agree - I think each bill must be passed separately to allow for meaningful discussion.

    You do realise don’t you that stimulating the arts sector, which has been hit particular hard will stimulate the economy

    It's closed at the moment and that money will probably end up in people's pockets.

    Here is what al of you guys are missing or ignoring .. The process and the Congressional rules allow the "servants of the people" to load Sciest into bills. I have $itched about our Congressional bills being mixed with pork for years. What we need , and neither political party have the fortitude to do it, is to have single purpose bills. A stimulous bill for the American economy should not include any bull Schiest, period.
    A defense allocation bill should be exactly that a defense allocation bill. Not for the support of Kentucky horse racing and not for saving the Sour Kraut industry in Kapustastan.

    Trump was missing from having anything to do with guiding the bill. He let Munchkin deal with Lady P and he ignored Chucky Cheeze Schumer and Moskva Mitch. I understand he hates and is afraid that Lady P will make a bigger fool of him than he has made himself but if Donnie was not under the thumb of some foreign dictator to slow things down this bill should have been passed at least a couple months before the election.

    I want Donnie fans to think about how many votes Donnie Doo Doo could have bought with $ 2,000 per person.

    PS No I do believe that we can afford '2000 per person but use your collective imagination.

    Yet there are still Democrats everywhere criticizing Trump for standing up to this trash bill.

    You can make that argument but the visual of money for the arts I nails vigorously. It stinks just as much as millions for horse racing.

    Money in people's pockets is the reason for the stimulous bill. The issue is that you or I may disagree whose pockets the money should go to.

    You and I probably agree that there should not be any money in this bill going to Kapustastan.

    Trump has been calling for standalone bills since October.

    Really? Why not?

    Also, Trump called for a standalone direct stimulus payment in October. He was the only one.

    You must have missed it.

    Horse racing can go.......

    But if we let the arts falter we lose embedded culture - and I am not talking about some ballerina twirling on her toes but the hundreds of musicians and part time actors and all of those scraping for a living

    We are not spending any of it since the bill failed to pass the president.
