Unconscionable! The Democrat Party of destruction want to bankrupt America, because they believe that will finish President Trump in November. Fortunately this insane bill will die in the Republican controlled Senate. However, that is hardly the point. What if the Left take power in November, the way they did in 2009? Then these kind of destructive bills will pass with regularity, until America is run completely into the ground. The Democrat Party must go down hard in November. No rational American should support the anti-America Democrat Party of destruction in any way. #Trump2020! #GOP2020!
I want every American to understand what Nancy Pelosi's "proxy voting" scheme means:
→ Democrats can stay home for the rest of the year, but still get paid.
→ Democrats can hand their power over to someone else—Pelosi—so she can vote multiple times.https://t.co/6DJReS7Nf6

Pelosi’s $3 trillion 1,800-page bill even has Dems slamming it for giving too much to large corporations. @KendraHornOK said it was filled with pet projects. “Messaging bills without bipartisan support are a disservice to the American people, especially during a time of crisis”

House passes $3T coronavirus relief — the most expensive bill in history
By Fox News, May 15, 2020
The House of Representatives on Friday evening passed a $3 trillion coronavirus relief bill, the most expensive legislation approved in history, that Democrats hailed as the unprecedented response needed to deal with the unprecedented pandemic and economic fallout.
The record-breaking bill narrowly passed by a 208-199 vote. Fourteen Democrats defied their party and voted “no,” while one Republican, Rep. Pete King of New York, broke with the GOP and voted “yes.”
“If you don’t understand the suffering, you haven’t been paying attention,” said Rep. Nita Lowey, D-N.Y., the chairwoman of the House Appropriations Committee.
“The time for action is now. The American people have unprecedented needs and the federal government must step up to the plate [and] provide the necessary assistance to meet those needs,” she said.
Unlike the first four coronavirus bills that passed with overwhelming bipartisan support, this 1,815-page package was drafted by Democrats alone and earned a veto threat from the White House and condemnation from the GOP as a “liberal wish list” that’s dead on arrival in the Senate.
Even House Speaker Nancy Pelosi couldn’t get all her members on board. The most liberal members of the party panned the legislation as not going big enough, while moderate members in swing districts said they couldn’t support vote a bill that was too partisan and costly.
“At a time when our country is in real trouble, we should not be spending precious time on one-sided solutions that aren’t going anywhere,” said Rep. Joe Cunningham, D-S.C.
But most Democrats, some making emotional pleas on the House floor, said Americans need this lifeline — now. They spoke of the more than 85,000 deaths from COVID-19, winding food bank lines in their districts, more than 36 million losing their jobs, and families struggling to make rent as evidence of the need for a historic response.
“Many say this bill is dead on arrival,” Rep. John Garamendi, D-Calif., told members on the House floor. “If we do not move this bill, the deaths will be in our districts.”
Dubbed the HEROES Act, the legislation includes $915 billion in state and local aid that could prevent layoffs of public workers, like first responders and teachers; a new $200 billion “heroes” fund for hazard pay for essential workers; $100 billion for K-12 and higher education and $75 billion for coronavirus testing.

Disqus notifications problem
Caution: Many people are having problems with Disqus
Here is what I know. I can write comments here on Geller Report and other sites. They stay, and are not deleted by Disqus. BUT when I go to my Disqus home page, I see trouble:
https://disqus.com/by/UnknownZone/
1. The new comments I write do not appear in my home page record of comments. For example, if you go to my home page, you will not see this comment appear, even though it is obviously present, right here.
2. The “notifications” section, that shows replies and up-votes, is also not updating. So if you reply to this comment here, I will see it here, but not in my “notifications” section.
3. Many people are commenting about this problem on Breitbart, so it is happening for many others.
4. Disqus is doing nothing so far, and are claiming on their website that everything is running perfectly. But the complaints are piling up here:
https://disqus.com/home/channel/discussdisqus/
5. SO if you are having Disqus problems, you are not alone.

It would be too obvious to cut everyone off so they minimize the conversations by eliminating the notifications of responses.

It’s very strange that Disqus is not even acknowledging the problem. There are websites that specialize in tracking Internet problems and website failures, and those are strangely silent too. One, called ‘downdetector dot com’ shows strong complaint traffic about Disqus, but won’t actually describe, or address the problem. And web searching the topic “Disqus update problem” shows very little info. Weird.

Disqus is owned by Zeta Global and the people at the top are LIBERALS. ENOUGH SAID?

I hate Wikipedia, but here’s the info on them:

Breitbart is notorious for allowing Disqus to do whatever it wants with your comments and THIS is why I most always come HERE. In fact, Geller is my HOME PAGE. BB is like THE NATIONAL ENQUIRER to me because it either leaves out a lot of pertinent information OR, it doesn’t include the best information of what is actually happening. BB reminds me a lot of MSNBC.
GellerReport is more like NewsMax or OANN.
GELLER IS WORTHY OF OUR FINANCIAL SUPPORT SO THEY CAN EXPAND HOW THEY GET THEIR NEWS.

Have been having the same problems for 3 days now. I’ll bet it’s only those posting conservative views that are.

Martina: Thanks for your reply. Yes, I see on your home page that you have been blocked for about 3 days. Me too.
Disqus does a disgusting thing called ‘shadow banning’, to people they dislike. The disliked commenter thinks they are commenting on a website, but their comments are always invisible to other commenters. SO the disliked shadow banned commenter thinks they are leaving comments, and contributing to the dialog, but they never get replies or up-votes, because no one but them actually sees their comments.
I’m not sure, but Disqus might be doing a kind of ‘super’ shadow banning, to commenters who write things that Disqus dislikes. Disqus is effectively locking us out of our own Disqus home page.

Exactly as you say. If Disqus arbitrarily disapproves of someone’s comments because they are deemed too extreme, they simply won’t be shown. Two of my recent posts – one here; the other at Breitbart – mysteriously vanished into thin air. . ..

Well it’s back up now I guess, but I’ve long suspected there are hateful leftists at Disqus who do their best against conservatives in comments.

Oh yes for sure there are. I get banned from many places, because the Disqus filter algorithms easily accept simple comments like, “Trump is a horrible jerk”. But they tend to reject comments like, “Here are some ideas I had about re-unifying the country… with references.” Disqus hates that type of comment, they label it spam, and they ban people who do it.

It seems to me that it’s not the place of Disqus to hate any type of comment or promote any type either. That should be the purview of the site that uses Disqus for comments. But of course give them the means and certain political operatives at Disqus will impose their will on those they hate, principally conservatives.

By all that’s holy, this proposal is part of a well trodden path, not to equality or justice but despotism, dependance and poverty because it’s all been tried before and it ended in tears and tantrums then as it will in America if it’s tried.
As Mrs Thatcher once remarked “sooner or later, socialists run out of other peoples money”. The UK knows the truth of that.
As in the UK, the solution for America and all other western countries now weakened by covid 19 is the same e.g. bring back all those jobs and that industrial capacity offshored to China, India {who still won’t lower tariffs on U.S goods} and all those other shack and sandals economies relying on globalisation and our money.
Bring back everything we can, we must do it because those overseas workers don’t vote in our elections, our “sold out home workforces” do and it’s to them our political elites owe their allegiance first and foremost.
The reasons are many but this one will do. When the balloon goes up and the country needs recruits, only the young people who feel they belong to the nation will answer the call, and if they should turn around asking “what did you do for my folks and me when my dad was jobless” what could a globalist say in his defence ?
For a tomorrow, look to the future and and pay due regard to those here today.

I am a lil confused now. If the House passes a bill and then IF it passes in the Senate does the President no longer have the power of the Veto?
