It's a shame Mitch just got re-elected because watching Trump wreck his poo poo would have been glorious.

I know I’m loving the crap out of it. Every waking minute Mitch has to wonder if Trump may finally lose it, and just tell people to visit Mitch at his house, or if he’s lucky just continually dick punch him on Twitter. :kiss:

Do you mind if I ask why? I've heard about people needing to wait for physical checks, but never really looked into why.

My only taxable income in 2019 was the Special Survivor Indemnity Allowance I get because my SBP benefits are offset by my DIC benefits. I filed a tax return anyway because that's what I do in mid-January so I ended up with a result of $0 owed/$0 due so the IRS didn't want my direct deposit information.

When it came time to give my direct deposit to the IRS for my first stimulus check, my $0 owed/$0 due circumstances confused the living poo poo out of the system. By the time they got it fixed they had already mailed me a check and wouldn't let me give them my direct deposit information.

Now they're shoving payments out as fast as possible and their portal for stimulus round II isn't working yet.

The Consolidated Appropriations Act, 2021 was passed and extended the period for collecting deferred 2020 Social Security taxes. The period for collection is now January 1, 2021 through December 31, 2021 (instead of January 1, 2021 to April 30, 2021).

People now have the whole year to pay back the loan they were forced to take out instead of just three months. From the top of https://www.dfas.mil/taxes/Social-Security-Deferral/, overriding everything below it.

He still is as majority leader despite earmarks no longer being a thing. For example, one of the big compromise bills that passed cutting a bunch of stuff during the Obama years had a ton of money for an Ohio river locks system randomly and mysteriously added immediately before the final voting.


If you want to play conspiracy angles McConnell might actually be “owned” by China. Except, the good capitalist China so nobody cares, unleash Chiang, etc

It's not everybody but him. At all. It's drat near the entire Republican Senate caucus too.

Republicans had to be dragged kicking and screaming to the $600/unemployment and had to get bribed with the business funding and business-related tax breaks. Why would they be for $2K with nothing for "their" people and/or what they wanted?

It's likely true that a straight $2K vote might get 60 votes. But they always want a "majority of the majority", not a bill that passes because only 15 Republicans wanted to go along with it. Mitch is just willing to take the arrows, while also being a ghoul, so he can keep the power. He's the head ghoul of a caucus of ghouls, he's not the only ghoul.

Pollard didn't start fronting the "we're just a patriotic Jewish family" poo poo until he got busted. He was a loving twit who wanted everyone to think he was James Bond and to get paid; he was shopping his poo poo all over the place, including to well-known allies of Israel such as Pakistan and Iran, so his claims of special kinship with Israel have always rung hollow to anyone who was paying attention. But it seems to have worked pretty well since the government of Israel granted him citizenship and had been pestering the US to let him go to "his home" since the mid 90s, and then when you get the Prime Minister to meet your airplane with your new ID cards you must have done something right.

But yeah, he should have died in jail.

He's kinda a Milquetoast kinda dude as far as Democrats go. His 18 campaign was basically a stock standard "reasonable republicandemocrat" position. Which got him paddled by Karen Handle.

He would not have had a snowballs chance in hell of winning had Covid never happened, because Perdue's not hated enough to suppress his own turn out, he's not charismatic or inspirational enough to get people out to vote for him who might have otherwise stayed home, and Trump isn't near hated enough down here.
