How do we break this cycle ?

Toomey is trying to cut the ability of the feds to help in the financial crisis as part of letting the bill for covid relief pass.

We already went fron 3.3 trillions to 900 billions, agreed to drop aid to states, cut stimulus payments to $600.00, unemployement checks to $300.00 .

Republicans know we might yield on that too. They are ununcumbered by conscience, we are not and the gop has learned to take advantage of it.

Honestly, im not sure how we get out of this situation. If we yield, we enable them, if we dont people who desperately need help quick get hurt.

3. It's a tough situation.

I was all for the compromise until I read the shit Toomey wants to do. I don't think we can allow his poison pill to be passed into law.

4. On top of the fact that Mnuchbag

Has been trying to take over the remaining funds earmarked to help people and return them to the Treasury so the next administration won't have access to them in January without Congressional approval.

Just evil and cruel.

6. Nor do I

Let's hope he was "shamed" into doing the right thing.

I know. I know. No shame in any of these assholes.
