There need to be new laws - especially in times of crisis - that dictate strictly pure bills can get through congress without any pork added. When one side sees the opportunity to fulfill fantasy wish lists by holding the other side hostage over a national crisis, something's permanently fucked.

Oh hell no! This is a fabricated Scamdemic. We don't need any more new laws. We need to arrest the people who lied to us for all of 2020 about the dangers of Chyna virus and Hydroxychloriquine.

Without those jackasses, Trump wouldn't have had to do this.The blood of innocent Americans is on their hands.

I say, let's do both. Arrest these traitors and restrict their powers going forward. You know they will try this shit again seeing how easily half the pop just bent over and took it dry.

The scamdemic may be fabricated, but the economic damage, and the loss of industry, is very real. That part needs to be taken care of, and as a businessman I trust GEOTUS to do exactly that.

Exactly. It would be one thing if we were in a crisis and all banded together to solve it, but that's not what is happening. Therefore, Trump is having to take matters into his own hands, thus making it look dictatorship-esque. I don't even care though because this is absolutely out of control. I'm a fiscal conservative and would never approve of shut handouts in normal circumstances, but this is not normal. If someone is forced to not work, give them unemployment checks. But seriously let's get everyone back to work.

Trumps own FDA guy said HCQ don’t work. Who gives a shit about that drug anyway? There are other treatments that actually work and that’s all that matters.

What’s wrong? FDA did say it should not be used for treatment anymore. It’s a fact.

Ya agreed. My biggest wish list as far as shit in Congress is term limits and limited to one action per bill. No reason that I shouldn’t be able to take ten minutes out of my day and read a bill and understand everything about it.

And it's always one side with the pork. Fucking Democrats, never letting any crisis go to waste.

Republicans do pork too... But they generally do it during normal times, not using crises as leverage.

I'm not sure "no-bullshit bill purity" should be a crisis-only thing
