Please, Speaker Pelosi, put your foot down

[SCantiGOP]

No further discussion of more stimulus funds until trump and the GOP Senate agree to a permanent and real Inspector General to oversee the expenditure of funds. Right now trump can move the current $2.2 trillion around as he sees fit. It may end up helping golf courses and building a wall on the border. We know we do not have a SCOTUS who will step in to stop the abuse.

Tell them this is the essential first step before we trust trump again. His competence and his honesty are no longer in question -- he has proven that neither of those qualities exist in any form.

[malaise]

1. THIS

Get thee to the greatest - very important

[jimfields33]

2. That's what republicans want. No more stimulus money.

I don’t think that will work.

[LastLiberal in PalmSprings]

14. No more stimulus money PLUS blaming the Dems for not passing it.

They achieve two goals at the same time.

[Blue Owl]

3. tRump can't wait to get his greedy little diaper-poop-grubbing hands in that cookie jar

Slap that mofo down...

[iluvtennis]

15. + 1 nt.

[Raven123]

4. I don't think one can rely on Trump's agreements. He breaks them all

[dchill]

21. Well, you can rely on THAT.

[OrlandoDem2]

5. I'd like to see Congressional committees called to shine light on the the issue.

[Voltaire2]

6. Ok. They agree to all her demands.

We pass a new stimulus and Shithead violates everything agreed to.

Now what?

[uponit7771]

8. If there's vote by mail we wont have to worry about him or any other republicans any longer

[Tweedy]

10. That is exactly what this president will do

Interstate compacts are the way forward until January 20th when we swear in Joe Biden.

[bluestarone]

7. Seems like the ONLY way to insure where this money is going is to NOT sign the next package

Until we know where THIS money went!

[Tweedy]

9. And what happens when this crooked fool of a president simply ignores the new rules?

Is there any doubt that is what he will do? And of course, Senator Collins will find the actions "disturbing" and do nothing.

Speaker Pelosi must demand money for every state for mail in balloting. The legislation needs to set forth the exact amount due every state.

We will only end the pigs at our federal trough next January 20th, when Joe Biden is sworn in as our forty-sixth president.

Then, we can track all of this theft down, claw back our money and prosecute the thieves.

[DENVERPOPS]

20. Every single time the Senate Republicans

divvy up the money, states like Wyoming and North Dakota get the same amount as California and New York.....

[Tweedy]

28. I could take even that

If we had transparency about where the personal protective equipment FEMA is taking from hospitals was going

If we had transparency about who is getting our 4 trillion dollars

If we had the slightest assurance that this unindicted co-conspirator of a president was not simply stealing our money to line his pockets.

We have none of that.

Shame! Shame! Shame!

America's first ship had to be built in all thirteen states. If we have to give more to Alabama than it should get, we can take that. California is strong, powerful and resilient. We have been funding states like Alabama for decades without complaint. We can take this, too.

Nonetheless, Alabama must expand Medicaid now or we all will know their governing majority for what it is-- a death cult.

[ffr]

11. Cut off funding completely.

Revolt in kind.

[Catch2.2]

12. Put your foot down....

Yes! This is something the Dems needed to do a long time ago!

[machoneman]

13. Give all the money to a Congressional Committee. Only they can and will disburse the funds.

Problem solved.

[yaesu]

16. the banksters will throw a fit and send the markets in a tailspin if they don't get their way and we

don't want that

[McCamy Taylor]

17. Also mail in voting

[Ferrets are Cool]

18. K and R

[notdarkyet]

19. How much has he already stolen? Ukraine golf his businesses his children. Stop it.

[RiverStone]

22. Agree! Add $ and assurance guarantee national vote by mail

The GOP is top fuckin scared to allow Democracy ...per Wisconsin

[Hotler]

23. "trust him again." I never trusted him. nt

[bdamomma]

24. Speaker Pelosi

Get him out, he is our biggest threat, and he is killing people, we cannot go on like this. He needs to go, he's a monster.

[Cozmo]

25. WHATEVER CAN BE DONE, MUST BE DONE

Otherwise, fuck us.

[erpowers]

26. Yes, Trump Should Not Have Oversight Over Stimulus Funds

You are right Speaker Pelosi and the Democrats need to stop discussions on further stimulus funds until an independent Inspector General is put in place. There is no reason to have Donald Trump overseeing stimulus funds. An Inspector General is needed to look over those funds.

[Midnightwalk]

27. Power of the purse is our only tool left in government

Longer term there is the election. There is also civil disobedience but I don’t know what form. I don’t put much belief in protests.

Everything will be harder because of the outbreak but still important.

[live love laugh]

29. Save the Postal Service instead of Boeing and Chase nt

[Cha]

30. And, dammit.. REAL Stimulus $$$$ for the US Post Office!!

[Alex4Martinez]

31. Have you seen her "Dereliction of Duty" Tweet and Video posted last night?

Here:

https://www.democraticunderground.com/100213257017

She's got a thing or two to say, through this video.

[grantcart]

32. And expanding vote for mail for all who want it

[lagomorph777]

33. +1 We are not interested in funneling trillions into Trump's Deutsche Bank account.

[flying_wahini]

34. For all we know the SCOTUS rethugs are getting a cut too.

[Lord Ludd]

35. ...firmly on Trump's throat. (Spike heels recommended) nt
