That no vote is not going to go over well in Texas at this point in time. Look for some changes to the house in 2024. I think in the senate as well. Let's see how republican Texas senators vote.

There are two Democratic Senators standing in the way of passing this bill: Kyrsten Sinema from Arizona and Joe Manchin from West Virginia. These two are more Republican than some honest-to-god Republicans. If Biden doesn't twist their arms really painfully, something Biden might not be willing to do because it is undignified for ex-Senator Biden to mistreat or threaten Senators, these two will kill the Covid-19 relief bill to protect their own sense of self-righteousness and let the honest-to-god Republicans win another victory for stupidity.

Let it be known that nobody is arguing against actual COVID financial relief.

It's all the other bullshit in the 1.9 Trillion bill that doesn't need to be there.

If the bill were just about extended unemployment benefits and the $1,400 stimulus checks, and perhaps some money for vaccination programs and small businesses, it would come in under 20 pages.

How many pages is this new bill again?

The big sticking point with Manchin was the minimum wage part. That has now been removed from the bill. I guess we'll see.

Do you have an article stating clearly that they removed it from the bill?

Any article I've read says it's still in there despite the fact the Senate Parliamentarian said that it wouldn't be accepted, which just means they're intentionally putting something in there that will slow the process of a bill being passed to make a point. (And there's zero chance that there already won't be at least a few weeks lapse in unemployment benefits for nearly 20 million Americans if it's signed into law by March 14th, despite the Legacy Media lying to the contrary, so they're playing games with millions of American's lives).

I see that they're working on a "Plan B" regarding $15, but they still have left it in the bill that the House passed yesterday.

I think this iz an opportunity for the Demz.

Let the GoPs take the minimum waje out. Get the relief bill passed ASAP.

Both will make good commercialz for the 2022 and 24 electionz.

But also immediatley start a stand alone minimum waje bill. Insted uv being a lame gradual faze in, make it immediate or within a few months!

They can then start collecting video uv the GoPs arguing agenst it and mix that in with them falling all over each other in their rush to pass tax cuts for the welthy over the last 30 yirz.

Accountant faces pressure to turn on Donald Trump in criminal probe

Few people have been as involved in Trump’s finances as Allen Weisselberg, a trusted figure in the family business since 1973. Legal experts and a source familiar with the matter say prosecutors want to convince him to cooperate with a criminal probe into Trump’s dealings.

When lawyers asked Donald Trump more than a decade ago to identify who estimated values on some of his signature properties, he shrugged and pointed to his longtime accountant, Allen Weisselberg.

“I think ultimately probably Mr. Weisselberg,” he said, testifying in 2007 in a defamation lawsuit he brought against a journalist, a case that hinged on whether Trump had inflated the value of his business empire. “I never got too much involved, other than I would give my opinion.”

A judge dismissed Trump's suit, but his comments illustrate the challenges now facing Weisselberg, 73, as he comes under scrutiny in Manhattan District Attorney Cy Vance’s investigation into whether the former U.S. president and his Trump Organization committed financial crimes.

If Trump argues that he merely relied on the advice of his accountants and lawyers, Weisselberg could be in the position of having to take the heat himself for any potentially fraudulent dealings - unless the accountant makes a deal with prosecutors and implicates Trump. Why now?

Because on March 1, after the U.S. Supreme Court denied Trump’s last-ditch effort to keep his tax records private, Vance’s office obtained millions of pages of records on Trump’s taxes and finances.

Trump’s Odds of Getting Away With Tax Fraud Just Took a Nosedive

Fortress Investment Management loaned the Trump Organization $130 million to build his Chicago tower and then, seven years later, forgave a cool $102 million of that debt. While Trump ended up getting a sweet deal not having to repay a huge chunk of money, investigators are reportedly interested to know if he paid taxes on the forgiven amount, as required by the IRS.

Seven Springs, a Westchester County estate owned by Trump, has a local tax assessments of roughly $19 million, but Trump has valued it at up to $291 million. Which is…curious! Inflating assets to help secure loans or other financial benefits can be a state criminal offense.

Trump classified Seven Springs as an investment property and has subsequently been able to write off $2.2 million in property taxes as a “business expense.” The problem? Eric Trump has publicly stated that the estate is a family retreat, telling Forbes in 2014 that “this is really our compound,” recalling the summers and weekends he spent fishing and riding ATVs around the property with Donald Trump Jr.

John Dean warns Trump that prosecutors are closing in

Dean, the White House counsel to President Richard M. Nixon who was once dubbed the “master manipulator” of the Watergate scandal, says he knows legal trouble and former President Donald Trump is in it deep.

Dean shared a report on former Trump personal attorney Michael Cohen, who has been meeting with the Manhattan district attorney’s office, which is investigating Trump for potential fraud, including tax fraud. It was Cohen’s seventh meeting with the DA’s office. Cohen was Trump’s longtime personal attorney and fixer before turning on him in 2018.

Dean pointed out on Twitter the significance of all those meetings:

John W. Dean @JohnWDean
From personal experience as a key witness I assure you that you do not visit a prosecutor’s office 7 times if they are not planning to indict those about whom you have knowledge. It is only a matter of how many days until DA Vance indicts Donald & Co.

Can Cyrus Vance, Jr., nail Trump?

On February 22nd, in an office in White Plains, two lawyers handed over a hard drive to a Manhattan Assistant District Attorney, who, along with two investigators, had driven up from New York City in a heavy snowstorm. Although the exchange didn’t look momentous, it set in motion the next phase of one of the most significant legal showdowns in American history. Hours earlier, the Supreme Court had ordered former President Donald Trump to comply with a subpoena for nearly a decade’s worth of private financial records, including his tax returns. The subpoena had been issued by Cyrus Vance, Jr., the Manhattan District Attorney, who is leading the first, and larger, of two known probes into potential criminal misconduct by Trump. The second was opened, last month, by a county prosecutor in Georgia, who is investigating Trump’s efforts to undermine that state’s election results.

Vance is a famously low-key prosecutor, but he has been waging a ferocious battle. His subpoena required Trump’s accounting firm, Mazars U.S.A., to turn over millions of pages of personal and corporate records, dating from 2011 to 2019, that Trump had withheld from prosecutors and the public. Before Trump was elected, in 2016, he promised to release his tax records, as every other modern President has done, and he repeated that promise after taking office. Instead, he went to extraordinary lengths to hide the documents. The subpoena will finally give legal authorities a clear look at the former President’s opaque business empire, helping them to determine whether he committed any financial crimes. After Vance’s victory at the Supreme Court, he released a typically buttoned-up statement: “The work continues.”

If the tax records contain major revelations, the public probably won’t learn about them anytime soon: the information will likely be kept secret unless criminal charges are filed. The hard drive—which includes potentially revealing notes showing how Trump and his accountants arrived at their tax numbers—is believed to be locked in a high-security annex in lower Manhattan. A spokesman for the Manhattan District Attorney’s office declined to confirm the drive’s whereabouts, but people familiar with the office presume that it has been secured in a radio-frequency-isolation chamber in the Louis J. Lefkowitz State Office Building, on Centre Street. The chamber is protected by a double set of metal doors—the kind used in bank vaults—and its walls are lined with what looks like glimmering copper foil, to block remote attempts to tamper with digital evidence. It’s a modern equivalent of Tutankhamun’s tomb.

Such extreme precautions are not surprising, given the nature of the case: no previous President has been charged with a criminal offense. If Trump, who remains the Republican Party’s most popular potential Presidential candidate and who recently signalled interest in another run, is charged and convicted, he could end up serving a prison term instead of a second White House term. Vance, the scion of a prominent Democratic family—the kind of insider whom the arriviste Trump has long resented—now has the power to rewrite Trump’s place in history. The journalist Jonathan Alter, a longtime friend of the D.A. and his family, said, “Vance represents everything that Trump, when he was in Queens with his nose pressed up against the glass in Manhattan, wanted to conquer and destroy.”

Vance’s investigation, which appears to be focussed largely on business practices that Trump engaged in before taking office, may seem picayune in comparison with the outrageous offenses to democratic norms that Trump committed as President. But the New York University historian Ruth Ben-Ghiat, whose recent book “Strongmen” examines the characteristics of antidemocratic rulers, told me, “If you don’t prosecute Trump, it sends the message that all that he did was acceptable.” She pointed out that strongmen typically “inhabit a gray zone between illegal and legal for years”; corrupt acts of political power are just an extension of their shady business practices. “Trumpism isn’t just about him,” Ben-Ghiat went on. “It’s a whole way of being in the world. It’s about secrecy, domination, trickery, and fraud.” She said, of Vance’s probe, “It’s symbolic for the public, and very important to give the public a sense of accountability.”

The legal clash between Vance and Trump has already tested the limits of Presidential power. In 2019, Trump’s lawyers argued that Presidents were immune from criminal investigation and prosecution. Trump’s appellate counsel, William Consovoy, asserted that Trump couldn’t be prosecuted even if he fulfilled one of his most notorious campaign boasts: “I could stand in the middle of Fifth Avenue and shoot somebody and I wouldn’t lose any voters.” Vance and his team rejected this imperial claim, insisting that nobody is above the law. Trump, in his effort to shield his financial records, took the fight all the way to the Supreme Court—and then back again, after the case was remanded—but the D.A.’s office won every round.

Daniel R. Alonso, Vance’s former top deputy, who is now a lawyer at Buckley, L.L.P., predicts that if Trump is indicted “it will be nuclear war.”

Trump has already demonstrated a willingness to engage in almost unthinkable tactics to protect himself. Among his social circle in Palm Beach, speculation abounds that Florida’s Republican governor, Ron DeSantis, an ally, might not honor an extradition request from New York if a bench warrant were issued for Trump’s arrest. Dave Aronberg, the state’s attorney for Palm Beach County, doubts that such defiance would stand. Extradition, he points out, is a constitutional duty, and a governor’s role in it is merely “ministerial.” But he admitted that the process might not go smoothly: “You know what? I thought January 6th would go smoothly. Congress’s role was just ministerial then, too.” (DeSantis did not respond to a request for comment.)

Vance’s office could well be the only operable brake on Trump’s remarkable record of impunity. He has survived twenty-six accusations of sexual misconduct and an estimated four thousand lawsuits. And his successor, President Joe Biden, so far seems to prefer that the Department of Justice simply turn the page.

As a result, the contest between Vance and Trump is about much more than a financial investigation. It’s a stress test of the American justice system. George Conway, a lawyer and a Trump critic, said, “Trump is a man who has gotten away with everything his entire life. He’s an affront to the rule of law, and to all law-abiding citizens.”

In the December phone call to the Georgia Secretary of State's Office, Trump urged their top investigator, Frances Watson, to find fraud in the 2020 presidential election, telling her that she would be a "praised" for overturning results.

Trump in the December call had encouraged Watson to look to uncover "dishonesty" in her signature checks for absentee ballots in Fulton County, the most populous county in state and the one that houses most of Atlanta.

"But if you go back two years, and if you can get to Fulton, you are going to find things that are going to be unbelievable," the former President said. "The dishonesty that we've heard from. But Fulton is the mother lode."

Later on the phone call, Trump told Watson that he hoped "we" could win Georgia and that "you have the most important job in the country right now."

Watson told CNN affiliate WSB-TV's investigative reporter Mark Winne that she had recorded the December call from Trump for posterity. "It's not every day, that probably will never happen again in my lifetime," Watson told WSB.

Officials in the Georgia Secretary of State's Office located the recently released recording of former President Donald Trump's call to a state investigator in a trash folder on her device, a state official familiar with the situation confirmed to CNN. Watson deleted the call in order to cover Trump's ass, but Watson was caught red handed.

Trump is a man who has gotten away with everything his entire life. He’s an affront to the rule of law, and to all law-abiding citizens. Likewise, the Trumptards I know are tax-cheaters, adulterers, thieves, liars, law-breakers, die Dummköpfe, same as him, but infrequently because they are not as daring and can't afford his lawyers.

So? So have probably 99.99999% of all born-rich people. And let's not forget to mention politicians of both parties. Why do you ONLY obsess about Trump? Why do you ONLY obsess about republicans?

And if democrats* don't do any different, how are they any better?

You are not complaining about born-rich people, are you? I think, if you were a Texas Trumptard, you are actually complaining about your difficulties staying in the middle class. But holding on to what you already have is difficult for the mentally ill, whether your illness is delusions about your capabilities or about Trump. I suggest to Trumptards everywhere that you stop blaming Obama and Biden and the Democrats for your hardships. Instead, look inside yourself and pray to your God for help. And while you are at it, stop drinking, smoking, overeating, cheating on your spouse, and being generally irresponsible at work and at leisure. Your boss and family will appreciate the change.

I was sitting with Troy Barrett last Wednesday. We were drinking flavored vodka, which tastes the same as the syrup in a can of Dole pineapple slices. It's nasty. His daughter gave him a bottle as a birthday gift. Troy votes Democrat when he remembers, but he has all the same problems as Trumptards about staying in the middle class, including the bragging about capabilities he doesn't actually have. He even bragged that he doesn't have to beg from anybody. The only difference I see between him and a Texas Trumptard was that Troy has no delusions about Trump being a capable, honest, hardworking, self-disciplined President.

As I was backing out of his driveway, Troy changed his mind. I rolled down the window to hear him ask for $10. So much for his brag about not begging.

In Libtards and Trumptards, mental illness is still illness and changing Presidents can't fix what is wrong with the brains of 165 million Americans. That half of Americans are crazy is why the country has been in turmoil all my life. That half of Americans are sane is why the country can function, but it would be much nicer if the Gods of other half would grant them good sense.

No shit dude.

People are always going to be fucked up, and for a million and one different reasons.

Stop pretending it's a political thing. And stop pretending that you have all the answers and that you're better than anybody else.

It's not. You don't. You're not.

It's not. You don't. You're not.

The Confederates claimed they fought for their rights in the Constitution, but they fought because they didn't want to do their own work and they didn't want to pay the people actually doing the work. The Confederates were deluded about themselves and they wouldn't admit to their real motives for killing Yankees. The Confederates were mentally ill. Jumping forward to the present, the conflict between Trumptards and Libtards has nothing to do with the Constitution. It is about mental illness, not lofty principles handed down in the Declaration of Independence and Constitution. And Trump is the most floridly mentally ill President in history. I dare you to claim this Trump speech is sane. Your answer depends on you being sane:

Maybe you didn't have to be crazy to vote for crazy Trump in 2016. Voting Trump in 2020 was hard to defend, but it is insane to defend him in 2021. It makes you worse than him because he is sane enough to know he needs to keep lying to stay out of jail, but what is your motive to lie about Trump's crimes, other than you being crazy?

There is a theme here SECOND. A theme started after Biden beat Trump. They are desperately trying to get people to stop posting about him. There're trying to shame people into doing so. These same people posted constantly about Clinton and Obama for the past four years, yet they say it's time to stop posting about Trump.

Time according to them, to ignore Trumps legal problems. Even though we kept saying he was a hood and corrupt. Even though we keep saying this was coming while they said it wasn't, all the while saying it was fake news.

Well, their wrong again. They have a perfect record when it comes to being wrong. They've been wrong 100% of the time. That's called being stupid. That's called being a troll.
