Amazing how disingenuous Democrats are. That was nothing but pandering to how they are great and Trump is bad. Trump's teams found the money your party has been stealing Crockett. I hope they perp walk this dumb motherfricker because she is a thief.

We aren't talking about giving money out.

We're talking about returning money to its rightful owners.

At the end of the day, even if they gave the money back, it would all be moot because of this thing called inflation that occurs when you just hand everyone money.

She’s got to be a slow adult. The bar for congress is so fricking low. They should make mandatory IQ tests and that’s for both sides of the aisle.

I get that she’s trying to make a splash and make a name for herself in the Democratic Party, and that’s why she’s so upfront and obnoxious.

But damn, lady, you have got one lousy sense of timing. Read the fricking room, why don’t ya?

Is that what happens with tax refunds

Tax refunds cause inflation?

Was that a not so veiled threat about pandemics?

No.

Not until they cut spending.

That’s letting them waste more of what they’ve wasted. Taxpayer dollars.

Give us all $2500 and build a nice fifty foot tall, twenty foot thick concrete wall along the southern border.

Can’t. We’d be in a major recession if we did that. You can’t take half a trillion dollars out of circulation each year without triggering a recession. They would have to ease into it. If the amount saved is $500,000,000 each year, then give back $450,000,000 this year, $350,000,000 next year, etc.

I'm not in the business of giving out money either but they certainly took it and their $120,000 salaries and became multimillionaires while the country continues to fall farther and farther into debt.

They're just not in the business of giving out money to people who actually paid it in.

Ok, I’m in favor of paying down the debt rather than doling this money back out.

But anybody who says they wouldn’t welcome an unexpected five grand is just a liar. I don’t care how much you’ve got.

frick the debt until they get their spending in order.
No deal.

That’s giving your kid a bigger allowance after finding out he has a drug habit.

$5,000 is a lot of eggs. Since eggs are so important right now.
