Dollars people will forgive child rape at the level these monsters carried it out for years?
Unfortunately most of the fake Jesus crowd will completely exonerate all the old rich men fucking little girls. Some MAGA’s would sell their own little girl for that, to sacrifice her to their lord Trump. He always tries to pay off his accusers or potential witnesses to his shit. Or silence them, permanently.

but I just don't see how this would ever get through Congress.

Question is, what do we do with the checks if they do go out? Two grand is two grand, and beef if $10/lb.

… for votes. That’s all I get out of this ridiculous tariff check proposal.

You know what? I’d take the check, donate $50 to a Democrat/s of my choosing and still vote straight D on Election Day.
