House Speaker Nancy Pelosi said Sunday there’s “no deal” yet on a massive stimulus package, as she and other congressional leaders tangled over the details of a $1 trillion-plus package aimed at stabilizing an economy reeling amid the coronavirus pandemic.

Her remarks dimmed the prospect of speedy congressional action on legislation aimed at helping individuals who have been laid off and businesses that have shuttered amid severe travel restrictions quarantines and lockdowns.

"If you are a young person in America today, you need to stay home," the New York Democrat said Sunday on CNN's"State of the Union." "There are not enough face masks, gloves, ventilators, hospital beds to get us through this. Many hospitals are already at capacity or approaching capacity," she said. Trump responded by tweeting that Pritzker and other governors"shouldn’t be blaming the Federal Government for their own shortcomings. We are there to back you up should you fail, and always will be!"Gov. Andrew Cuomo, D-N.Y., made the same complaint and, like Pritzker and other governors, called on Trump to invoke the Defense Production Act and"order companies to make gowns, masks and gloves.

McConnell is scheduled to speak at 2 p.m. EDT before a procedural vote on the package at 3 p.m. If a deal is reached, a final vote could come as soon as Monday.

A White House statement said Trump sent the letter"consistent with his efforts to engage global leaders during the ongoing pandemic. The President looks forward to continued communications with Chairman Kim."WASHINGTON–The Federal Bureau of Prisons, the nation's largest detention system, reported its first known case of the coronavirus involving an inmate, confirming that the prisoner has been quarantined at the Metropolitan Detention Center in Brooklyn.

1finekitty Karma is doing its job. Give it time.

Yep there is Nancy doing her own thing again !

Sad cuz I can really use the help. Never filed for unemployment and never had food stamps. I always made enough. Now I could really use an extra hand. Maybe ill vote for first time in my life and vote for Republicans. I guess I never been poor enough to be a Democrat.

Any news on pornhub member tedcruz ?

Trying to figure out the best corporations to reinvest in 💵

Enjoy that time off Rand. Read a book or two on how to become a decent human being, which you are NOT

There better be a bill tonight! A pro worker one 😡

Perhaps his neighbor should go over there and give him another dose of “chicken soup”!

They need to figure something out because the rest of us are fucking suffering

It’s two trillion - that’s one hell of an amount

all stopped due to abortion funding. fck her and the democrats

Here’s an idea - get rid of EVERYTHING in the stimulus package that had nothing to do with this crisis. Get rid of the pork and special interest add-ons.

Who’s next Graham ,Johnson ,Jordan,all those shit head republicans

People without jobs don’t care about this political crap. Everyone get in a big room and get this done today. It’s not that hard. Keep businesses open, people on the payroll, and get emergency checks out. That’s it. You don’t need Democrats or Republicans pet projects.

Anything the liberals can to to hold it up to try and crash our economy. They’re not for the people, they’re against Trump at all costs.

Yet they didn’t think twice about spending so much money on a wasted impeachment trial?

I’m sorry but if the political parties were switched in this crisis the religious right would ABSOLUTELY be saying that this virus was sent by god to destroy the Democrats!!! Just sayin 🤷🏻‍♀️

gottaspeakgirl Put money in people's hands or the economy will freeze, which will be worse than the depression.

why are you not getting a cut Nancy not that you are filthy rich all ready

Come on Government, people first!

She's so vile.

Politics and attention over the needs of the people. Shame on all you.

They use propaganda to manipulate the youth.

She and other Democrats are reportedly concerned that McConnell's proposal does not offer enough protections for workers and needs tougher measures to prevent bailed-out corporations from engaging in stock buybacks that enrich executives.

Any stimulus must be money directly to unemployed people and the Congress must consider providing health insurance to those who lost their employer provided health insurance.

They do not want stability in this country. How many times do we need to be reminded?

You can never count on these people, especially in difficult times

Get it together pelosi. The country is hurting.

SpeakerPelosi people are going to need help soon !! No more fucking around and we need names for November!!! VoteThemAllOut 2020

This is not the time to hold to party lines Nancy.

Disgusting.

So afraid of Trump getting positive press for anything she won’t agree to help millions of hurting Americans. Playing politics in a crisis. We will remember this in November.

Less bullshit: more action please!

Here we go again politics over people

GOP don't give an inch to those freaks

Ya, that and attempting to include their BS proposals. Nice try cupcake

She is still probably trying to get money in it for abortions.

Democrats and the deep state in media are trying silence the Truth, They don’t care about the people of America ,all they are about is trying to destroy Trump

This is not the time for the back n forth stuff and don’t use financial advisors or companies who were charged with fraud by the dept of justice that’s like a bank robber getting hired by the bank n the bank not expecting the robber to rob the bank again

They are in love...

Nancy, now is not the time to pack a bill full of eugenics. No pork rolled into this bill. For once in a very long time. please do the right thing for America and not for your communist donors. You are an American. Do the best for our people not your agenda.

Way to come through for the people. What a joke

SpeakerPelosi will have to explain her blocking help to the American people. Many are already hurting she has no clue.

They need to cut out the political bullshit and get this thing passed. A pox on both houses if either party is trying to use this to ram through anything that isn't directly related to the Coronavirus situation.

Because it’s Nancy’s way or the highway. She and Schumer doesn’t negotiate.

SpeakerPelosi tweets that there is no deal on the stimulus package as of yet. Please tell us who is holding it up and why, because we want to take that with us when we vote in November!

gottaspeakgirl Thank you Madam Speaker- keep working for us.

I’m sure there’s a lot of pork in it.she does not care about the American people

How much pork is Pelosi trying to add?

What a bitch

Trump: I understand political God: Do you protect the American people? Trump: I understand virus God: Do you protect the American people? Trump: I understand stocks God: Do you protect the American people? Trump: I understand American people God: Do you understand yourself?

Put money in people hands this is not a reality tv

beware of backdoor socialism. we want to maintain free markets and limited government power (especially limiting DOJ/FBI). local government, private industry and charity should help as much as possible.

Is the Government Doing Enough for the Corona Virus?

It funny how we don’t hear a thing from the MSM about Pelosi refusing to approve Stimulus package for US Citizens eh?

Put all politicians on minimum wage.coronavirus. COVID19 health politics

It better include transparency on where the money goes.

Republicans want money to bail out big corporations. Dems say No. Money should go to working families. Republicans say ok just a small amount compared to big corporations. How do corporations get bailed out while working families get screwed. What side are you on?
