Corona Virus, How Has It Affected Your Area So Far?

Well first of all, its certainly not option B. Because I have posted, and you have posted, multiple sources, including Moscow Mitch's own words, that you are not correct when you allege that he wanted to do anything other than pass more money for PPP.

Thats all he wanted to do, he did not want to pass any funding for states or hospitals, which is where this conversation started. He is on the record in stating that, he is on the record in OBJECTING to that, and you are just ignoring his actual words and actions, as well as your own sources >.>

Now you are trying to twist the argument to: Cardin objected to his own bill. Still waiting to see something official on that. But I do know Cardin objected to a proposal that just included 250B to PPP, and nothing else.

I already gave you a source to that.

Just because you are willingly denying reality and do not want to accept a reporter who is actively reporting Senate procedures on the floor, doesn't mean that it never happened.

Seriously, stop living in your reality and join the rest of us in the real world. Trust me, it's not as bad as CNN says it is.

Again, I'm not denying that he didn't want to pass any funding for states or hospitals.

Believe it or not: I didn't disagree with you on this part. That is not what you are arguing against.

You are arguing that A) Cardin didn't write a bill and B) He didn't block his own bill.

Those are your arguments.

yes, I saw this tweet.


This is why I said I'm waiting on something official, because this tweet does a poor job of official reporting. Which, I get it, he is live tweeting it, and nobody cares about the specific bill number. But all it states is Cardin voiced an objection, called it a stunt, and points out Cardin was a co-author on the "original program." It doesn't state that Moscow Mitch brought Cardin's bill to a vote and Cardin voted against his own bill.

Remember, Moscow Mitch is on the record in saying its a standalone emergency funding bill, implying that it is in fact, NOT S 3554. Or if it is, its just a very narrow part of it. Which, as far as I know, a bill thats in committee, like 3554, can be brought to the floor with unanimous consent, but I don't know, and don't think, that just parts of it can be brought that way. I believe its an all or nothing deal, and I know that Moscow Mitch certainly did not bring all of it.

Congressional Record won't be updated until tomorrow. There is always a day lag.

You really do not know anything about Congress. You cannot bring anything to the floor of either the House or Senate without written records of it. The fact that the reporting stated that it was co-authored by Cardin shows that this is S.3554. The reason behind it is that Cardin has not authored any bills other than S.3554 that is related to COVID-19. This is the only bill he has authored that relates to it.

What do you think S.3554 is? Didn't you even look at the title of the bill? It's on record...

I truly, honestly believe you don't know anything about government. Except the very basic parts of it, like the 3 branches and who's on it. I don't believe you understand the workings on how things get done. My evidence is shown by your lack of understanding on basic procedures of this bill.

And you keep pretending to profess knowledge in it. Stop sticking your foot in your mouth.

And before anyone calls me a hypocrite, I don't know everything about the inner workings of Congress, but I believe I have a better grasp of it than most of America.

I'm not a politician, but I do know the basics and some of the intermediates of politics.

Actually it does. But I think moscow Mitch would pull the switcheroo rather than Trump. Mich is too shrewd to let Trump take the blame for that bit of chicanery. All he has to do is refuse to bring the additional bills to the floor.

And we all know that nothing is too slimy to be beneath him.

Kindof Reid-like, if you know what I mean.

A how it works:

More Stimulus? It's Not Like Hospitals And States Are Small Businesses, Like Churches Are
Wonkette, trigger warning.

If I can make 1 request, please stop calling the crap the Dems add to Bills "pork." Pork is delicious and nutritious. Call is something disgusting and toxic, like "soy."

Why has this devolved into a politics shitfest?

Take that crap to P&R, oh wait, some of you can't!

Hey man, we gotta make the day go by as fast as possible. Only 3 more hours!

To be fair, it is a common term for this type of situation, and it isn’t just dems who are guilty of it.

We could call it crap though

Sucks to be on an off coast, 15 minutes here, sucka.

Michigan gets another 17 days of Stay At Home (Was originally set to expire at 11:59 pm EDT Tuesday April 13th). Now it ends at 11:59pm EDT April 30th.

Also #3 in Cases and Deaths now, only behind New York and New Jersey... pretty sad

Have you seen the Netflix mini doc Tiger King? Yeah, that dude's from Oklahoma. He had 19% of the vote for governor in 2018. Oklahoma is hovering between 47~49th place in education in the US.

So, no it doesn't remind them to not touch their face because they believe that germs don't stick to the gloves.

My apologies, I was still going off of the 2017 Tulsa World's article, but I'll give it 34~47 depending on the source you "trust".


LOL, yeah because no one from Oklahoma could possibly not be lobster red. Grow up and get a clue kid. Edmond Sun is not a paper you'd want to quote, but since I was using the Tulsa squirrel I suppose we're even. I'm guessing you're not from Oklahoma or you'd know better.

Which one was that for? I'm legitimately curious as to the similarities between whatever the left pic refers to in relation to HC.

I think he is showing the differences in reactions if certain people pushed certain drugs to combat this disease.

When people citing their sources, they tend to use bias sources according their own preferences.



BTW, The economist (the stuff I read) is supposed to be Center-Left but I think they put it to the Right because it's leaning towards businesses.

Never mind, I stand corrected, you are in fact from Oklahoma, more than likely Salisaw area. Free thinkers, lmao, Jim Inhofe has successfully ran on the platform of “God, guns, and gays” (quoting him) for over 20 years, so please tell me how all of my fellow Oklahomans are such free thinkers.

I don't think that list is accurate either but close. It looks similar to mine but don't separate facts vs opinions.

The Economist is center left. I read often since college it so I know. They have really clear stance in their opinion and they acknowledge it. However, they are closer to analysis pieces than actual news reports. Their attempt that removing the reporter and do everything in one single neutral voice makes the paper more distant and analytical.

NPR is a little left leaning too. Not too much but I do feel they have the tendency to have a left leaning opinion when they aren't reporting facts. Or maybe I just listen to their radio programs.

WE'RE NUMBER 1!!!

The USA now has more corona virus cases than the rest of the world!

And Trump wants to open the country up on May day!

Good thing its really up to the states.
