    That’s right Lisa, there is no rational reason to respond to the COVID-19 pandemic and small business are not a part of the economy.

    I guess that Lisa sees large franchises, that snatch up all the financial assistance, as “small businesses”.

    Funny how it’s the Republicans in the House that are forcing Congress to convene and vote for the bills in person instead of by unanimous consent, after Pelosi makes sure that small business assistance actually goes to, y’know, small business instead of giant corporations and hedge fund managers.

    So here’s the issue: Would you rather have a job, or move into a casket? “Urgent” and “important” are not the same thing. And if “urgent” is life or death? It has to be the thing you do first.

    Lisa Lies Like A Rug. Pelosi was fighting for MORE $ for small businesses and it was her and her GOP henchman who were fighting to limit payments to them. She never tires of not telling the truth.

    Pelosi wants to support small businesses.

    Her problem was Republican LACK of support for state/local government. Which translates to Fire/Police/Hospitals/Health Departments.

    Democrats wanted BOTH. Republicans have only funded small businesses.

    The Trump admin is giving 80% of the money to rich people and corporations.

    20 million to Ruth’s Chris Steak House, sorry small business, all out of money.

    ‘The View’ Blows Up Over Nancy Pelosi’s Ice Cream-Filled Refrigerator

    I see where Lisa gets her incisive political information.

    However the real political news is;

    Pelosi: Trump ‘engaged in distractions’ amid ‘total failure’ on testing

    Speaker Nancy Pelosi (D-Calif.) on Tuesday night renewed her criticism of

    DONALD JOHN TRUMP

    Pelosi: Trump ‘engaged in distractions’ amid ‘total failure’ on testing

    Speaking on “PBS NewsHour,” Pelosi asserted that Trump has engaged in a series of “distractions” and “misrepresentations” in order to deflect responsibility for the handling of the virus’s spread in the U.S.

    “What is impeding the federal government from addressing the COVID-19 crisis is the president’s denial, delay in all of this, and that has been deadly,” Pelosi said. “We are insisting on the truth and the president is engaged in a series of misrepresentations to the American people and that is the impediment.”

    No No Lisa how did you NOT get the memo…. Hillary is to blame! Today.

    Pelosi was last week….. Hillary is today’s villain. Obama is tomorrows ….. and coming Soon….. Joe Biden is at fault for our Massive Debt.

    Please try to keep up with the Guy that says openly I ACCEPT NO RESPONSIBILITY.

    6.6 Trillion or $22,000 dollars per person of working age and yet somehow there wasn’t enough money to send to small business?

    How much did Archer Daniels Midland Get? How much will the airlines get? How much did that Champion of small business Goldman Sachs Get?

    This such a lie! Who is Lisa playing up to? Nancy Pelosi is not binging on ice cream while the Covid-19 alarm goes off; she’s doing the work necessary to save the most people and in particular, right now, help the small biz that got left out from the first assistance bill. Soon, all we’ll need is for Dump to sign it into law.

    This is the clever strategy of hiding a lie within a partial truth. Pelosi showed off her big frig with lots of chocolate ice cream to a late night program host. True, the frig is costly and she stockpiles a lot of ice cream which she likes to eat (though she doesn’t show it). But, meanwhile, she is busy making sure that the latest assistance bill takes care of small biz who have been hurt by Covid-19’s after effects. She is actually one of our nation’s greatest heroines who, like her party, stands her ground in defence of the little guy, while Lisa and her Repub friends look after the big wigs and their money chests.

    Don’t go pretending that the Republicans would be any different. You always say that the Democrats don’t care about small business (which is true), but neither do the Republicans, they both only care about big business. Especially ones they own shares in.

    Lying Lisa is at it again. The REPUBLICANS put in the slush fund for large restaurant chains to get the money intended for small businesses. The large chains were lobbying Rubio and other Repubs for a carve out for them, so the Repubs added the 500 employees “per location” rather than “per company”.

    Plus there is an even larger slush fund that IG Glenn Fine (chosen by a panel of IGs) was supposed to oversee, but Trump fired him and replaced him with the IG from the EPA; according to Trump, why would the EPA need oversight when Trump is eliminating every regulation he can find. Mnuchin wanted to oversee that fund, but Trump said he would do it – what could possibly go wrong?

    Another Repub provision was to allow real estate investors and developers to deduct losses retroactively – wonder who can benefit from that?

    This may be a projection by Ms. Benson: She took a photo of her kitchen, and drew in Ms. Pelosi and the alarm. The rest of the stuff was already in the photo. The alarm was actually labeled as “Deadline!!!!!”
