Gary Varvel for December 09, 2020

Um, glad you acknowledge Biden won? But also wow, way to lie about the relief. GOP wants to cut relief and give what they do authorize to the corporations and billionaires — again. Mitch took HOW long to act on it at all?

It was Trump who insisted he be the only watchdog for the small business loans ordered in the first bill. There was no transparency. Mnuchin distributed loans to large companies and companies with ties to Trump and his cronies. Let’s put the responsibility on the Republicans, where it belongs.

Varvel lies again. To no one’s surprise.

Another lie from one of Mango Mussolini’s QUISLINGS!! And we do remember what happened to all those quislings, don’t we???

I think this would make more sense if it was about Moscow Mitch, who is sitting on several hundred bills, let alone the viable relief bills that congress approved a long time ago. Before being held hostage to unreasonable demands from corporations, er Mitch M.

In that I’d like to thank Nancy Pelosi for her patriotism through the difficult Trump years.

Hey, the relief bill from the House is still sitting on McConnell’s desk.Pelosi did HER part.

You and summers must have got the same bullsh*t memo. #moscowmitch blocked Nancy’s bill months ago and only now are some republicans working on a compromise bill.

Pelosi wanted more relief for the working class. GOP wanted billions more for the mega wealthy. No compromise.

It is impossible to take Varvel seriously.

varvel’s motto – lie, lie, lie…

Typical, no mask, feeling powerful and smug.

Varvel, old man selling old comi c s

varvell, rhymes with barbell. Equal in intelligence.

Considering that the GOP covid-19 relief bill only gave money to the upper 2% of the wealthiest people, I thing Nancy’s blocking it was wise.

Another Fox news talking point, if you want to be a Trump Republican you have to suspend reality

Flat out liar. All the blocks to aid have come from Mitch the *itch.

Is that Moscow Mitch in the driver’s seat? He’s the one that’s been blocking the second relief bill that’s been languishing in the House for months.

Got the wrong tombstones in this picture, those bumps all belong to Republican Senators

Do not blame Mr. Varvel. He is only taking dictation. Garbage in, Cartoon Garbage out.

When any attempt at intelligent humor fails, go back to the knee-jerk Pelosi bashing.

Liar!

I guess Gary got the GOP meme of the day. Four such cartoons from four conservative flacks all on one day. Here’s the truth:Put the blame on Mitch boysPut the blame on MitchMitch kissed a voter from out of townThat kiss burned the USA downSo you can put the blame on Mitch, boysPut the blame on Mitch

The giant toilet plug is named McConnell, not Pelosi.

But not until Jan 20 …

Today’s right wing memo.

Covid spreading republicans stole the PPP money, they don’t care at all.

“We have nothing to FEAR but TRUMP himself” – New GOP motto for their profile in courage legacy . . . . . /S

Like Summers, Varvel is a fountain of misinformation….

Of course Varvel do not mention that Trump policies dug the graves and put them there. Let us wait and see what Biden really will (Future tense has not happened yet) do before we decide how he is doing.

‘This must be exposed’: Katie Porter ‘pulls back the curtain’ on Mitch McConnell’s stimulus sabotage

Porter continued, “Everyone at the negotiating table—including Senate Rs—has agreed to a compromise. Except one. Mitch McConnell is refusing to bring it to the floor unless it wipes away all COVID-related lawsuits filed that “allege injury or death” due to corporate negligence.”

“These lawsuits represent the worst of the worst examples of disregard for human life—cases filed on behalf of nursing home patients and grocery store workers who died because the company in charge of keeping them safe prioritized cutting costs over protecting them.”

She concluded, “The same McConnell who said that President Trump is “100% within his rights” to pursue baseless lawsuits alleging election fraud is now refusing to pass urgently-needed relief unless it strips those same rights from the most vulnerable among us. This must be exposed.”

Interesting disconnect… A guy with great comic drawing talents but the inability to entertain an honest political perspective.

Yes, the cartoon is blatantly false, a lie.

I understand now! Varvel lives in Bizarro World where everything is the opposite of reality. Population of Bizarro World – approximately 73 million

Pelosi and the Dems did their part. Publicans seem to think that minimum wage earners are parasites and vermin, or, put more charitably, that people living at the edge of survival and working three jobs must have done something wrong, so it’s really their own fault.

Pelosi, Schumer blast $916B White House coronavirus relief proposalThe Trump-backed plan is said to include pared-down stimulus checks for Americans.

WASHINGTON — House Speaker Nancy Pelosi and Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer late Tuesday rejected a Trump-backed $916 billion coronavirus relief proposal that was offered by Secretary of the Treasury Steven Mnuchin.

The new Mnuchin plan landed on Capitol Hill late Tuesday and could boost prospects of an agreement, as it shows that the White House is willing to back a $900 billion plan. But it also complicated efforts given that much of the focus has been on a bipartisan group of lawmakers who have been working furiously to come to an agreement on their own $908 billion proposal

The Mnuchin plan has some distinct differences that have been immediately rejected by Democrats. Unlike the bipartisan proposal, it puts forth a $600 direct payment for individuals and $1,200 for couples, which is half the payment delivered by the March pandemic relief bill. And while the proposal would extend federal unemployment benefits, which are set to expire at the end of the month, for up to eight weeks, it would not provide an additional enhanced weekly federal benefit of $300 that Democrats are demanding and the bipartisan group has endorsed.

First McConnell has to make sure republicans don’t get sued for killing a quarter million Americans with their totally botched covid response. Like Trump said, “I take no responsibility.”

McConnell has blocked the House pandemic relief bill for over 200 days

Moscow Mitch is the road block again, what a surprise. Propaganda doesn’t depend on accuracy or facts, just stupid people willing to believe what they want…

The problem is that Mitch McMafia only wants to spend money on his cronies.

Katie Porter: Mitch McConnell is giving big corporations ‘a license to kill’ Americans

Speaking on MSNBC this Wednesday, Rep. Katie Porter (D-CA) blamed Sen. Mitch McConnell (R-KY) for putting the “imaginary need” of big corporations ahead of relief for Americans as coronavirus lockdowns continues to ravage the economy and shut down businesses.

According to Porter, Democrats “continue to want to negotiate” a new coronavirus relief package, adding that many Republicans are also willing to compromise, but “this is about Senator McConnell holding out, kind of basically giving a license to kill to big corporations that engage in reckless behavior to endanger workers and employees and Americans.”

“Republicans and Democrats agree there’s a potential to continue those [coronavirus relief programs] if [McConnell] will drop this ridiculous, and I think, corrupt attempt to try to put these imaginary needs of corporations ahead of the needs of the American people.”

Gary, monopoly capitalism killed the ‘Mom and Pop’ stores long ago. Get with the programme, son.

3,897 covid deaths today, Varvel.

Thanks for your contributions.

Blood on your hands and on those of Your Messiah.

Oh, is it Pelosi who’s been blocking the bill the House passed in May from coming to a vote in the Senate? Not Moscow Mitch? Will wonders never cease…. How does she do it???

Everyone knows that Pelosi had a bill ready in May. Moscow Mitch wouldn’t allow it to go forward because it actually helped the people, and businesses that needed it. His version only helps the super rich.

Where did this crazy meme get started? I’ve seen it in four different political cartoons today and it just isn’t true. McConnell has been using his power as majority leader to prevent voting on packages since April.
