So the bill Trump vetoed is now being included? Doesn't that need a super majority to be overidden? Why not just do a fresh bill with the $2000 they promised since they are going to have to bring another one anyway? More shifty political shenanigans and centrist apologetics..... :lol:

It’s amazing how the left is tripping over their dicks to not give Biden any credit for doing what they were asking for. I guess this is politics. Anyone can look at the tweet I linked from AOC and it explicitly says in the legislation that the amount is 2000 not 2600. Just tells you the difference between the two parties. Republicans will support Trump even when he does what’s against their beliefs while some Democrats won’t support Biden even when his policies align with theirs.

Right now Janet Yellen is being confirmed for Treasury and she’s talking about this is a time for spending not austerity. If you would have looked at rose Twitter when she was nominated you’d think she’s the second coming of Grover Norquist.

either you misread something, I am saying Biden is getting the 2k thru 600 from previous check and 1400 hundred dollars more. Then Stupor was saying that Trump vetoed that I was saying he did not mitch blocked that
Biden gets the credit for cleaning up this mess and getting money out to the people, I was clarifying Mitch was the issue

If he isn’t banned in the Senate, he will definitely at least pretend he will run again. Money to be made on that. Don’t worry about it, he’s completely unelectable. I know we heard that before, But he squeezed by pulling an inside straight the first time. Consider that he has lost the popular vote by more each time he ran, has lost Georgia and Arizona, is radioactive every time he campaigned for a candidate (realize, he campaigned in the deep south for 3 Senate candidates, and LOST), and has left office with the lowest approval ratings in presidential history. We wish.

Until recently, Comey was a loathesome fool who delivered Trump the election. But when he steps into it by saying he should not be punished I no longer think he was just a misguided Ahole running the FBI. I now believe he is something worse, a deeply compromised individual who actually had and has other motives.

Thus, I believe this prick is compromised in some way, because there is no way on earth a man could crap the bed as bad as he did and then think he is cleaning up his reputation by begging forgiveness for a complete traitor and the worst POTUS of all time.

Comey is now officially a disinfo agent in my books and it is sickening he is being adopted as a media pet and we'll have to see his face and hear his "opinions" in the future. If it were just a travesty, that'd be one thing, but Comey is deeply suspect to me now as some kind of traitor himself.

Mainstream journalism in this country is barely functional at this point. Sadly, that feeds into the MAGA mindset even if Fox and the Alt Right media outlets are wicked and dishonest. America needs better top of the line journalism to keep this republic alive and moving forward. Giving Comey a seat at the table is the stupidest, most craven fcking thing possible.

Trump saying he took on the hardest battles. To name a couple, he held the Saudis responsible for murdering and dismembering a journalist, and he issued a healthcare plan to replace the dreaded Obamacare. Oh and also he got infrastructure done, which really helped stem job losses once Covid hit. Just to name three of the tough battles he took head on.

If you want a fourth, he got ahead of Covid no matter how unpopular that was.

The man just fights and never thinks about the politics of it or whether he'll get his hands dirty.

Trump is complicit in Khashoggi's murder. He ran interference for MSB. Khashoggi was working for Bezos, Trump's enemy. As usual, he projects the opposite of his guilt. At a minimum Trump/Kushner made it possible for the Saudis to get away with it, at worst they gave some form of indirect consent that led to his execution. My strong feeling is it is the latter.

Even though I fcking hate you, I'm still giving you one last chance to disappear from the Knicks forum and never come back. Take that graciously and do DO NOT REPLY. This is your last chance.


It was an accident. Trump supporters want deep state metaphorically burned to the ground.


It was not a mistake. You live with the consequences. I said I won't do anything if you go away so WTF do you not understand about NO MORE REPLIES and NO MORE POSTS? Are you deaf in addition to being traitorous?

So let me spell it out to you:

You post here again and I'm contacting the FBI

That's it. DO NOT BEG FOR ANYTHING. You do not deserve any consideration, though I just gave you an opportuntity to disappear from the Knicks forum. If you're not a complete dummy, you will take me up on that and disappear from here forever

So STFU & GTFO


Possibly the RealGM Knicks post of the year. Maybe decade.

Yeah at the very least remaining in the political arena will give prosecutors a harder time. If nothing else.

It wouldn't shock me to see Trump not be interested in running the party. He wasn't very interested in running the country. But there's a lot of reason for him to continue trying to run the GOP and claim anything they do against him is for political reasons. Should be interesting to see.

Republican Senate is really deciding whether to allow him to run again. But by banning him, you may give him more power. Should be quite the multilayered game of chess.
