Congress has finally gotten around to passing a COVID relief bill. It will include a $600 check for most Americans. That’s a pitiful amount when you consider how long most businesses have been locked down.
To make matters worse, the bill is packed with pork, it’s thousands of pages long, and many members of Congress haven’t even read it.
Take a look at some of the garbage that’s in the bill:

People are disgusted and they have every right to be.
So where is the relief part of the bill?

And these politicians wonder why we the people don't trust them when they say "Good Morning". Disgusting.

I predict the day our country’s finances collapse, we will still be funding “gender programs in Pakistan.” Tonight’s COVID relief/stimulus bill has no less than $10 million for said programs attached to it. pic.twitter.com/0WMTeckdBN

The Smithsonian gets $1 billion in the same COVID-19 relief bill that hands you a $600 check.
Congress is a joke. Fire them all.

When your country’s COVID-19 relief bill includes $10 million in “gender programs” for Pakistan, you know Congress is broken.

Trump wanted a much better bill than this months ago, and Congress, mainly the Pelosi led House, turned him down.
Now we get this.
It’s a disgrace.
