Enhanced unemployment benefits run out at the end of today. A meeting last night between Mark Meadows, Steven Mnuchin, Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer was fruitless, and a deal is seemingly a long way off

PELOSI’S“Ideally, I should be able to go to work with Republican colleagues who are responsible enough to wear a mask. I don’t. The only way Congress can help Americans who need relief is for the body to be free from Covid. Until the Republicans take this seriously, members should be tested.”administration is still willing to send rapid testing equipment to Capitol Hill: “Yes, I think we should.

“President Donald Trump indicated to associates during a flight on Air Force One on Wednesday that he would not intervene in the US Senate Republican primary in Kansas despite the fears among top Republicans that the state could elect a nominee who will lose the seat and thus the Senate, according to three sources with knowledge of the conversation.

ProjectLincoln gtconway3d So the Senate, led by McConnell & the GOP, has left town, leaving the unemployed hanging high and dry and broke. Remember that on Nov. 3. election day.

If the economic figures are bad now...just wait a month or so. What will happen to thousands homeless?

Trump will exec order an extension to unemployment don't worry he's got your back as always .

GOP had 2 months to figure this out!😤

Republicans running for most hated by Americans who are hurting. And winning at something, finally.

M Meadows stole his place in congress by gerrymandering-NOW he works for Trump-in 2012 after the Republican-dominated Gen Assembly redrew district lines making the 11th way more favorable for GOP candidates. Meadows won the race to replace Shuler and won re-election easily since

Not surprising just more reasons the GOP and realDonaldTrump will face political annihilation in November and way beyond.

We need an investigation... after tRUMP.... into how many RepubliKLANs all of a sudden owned Kodak stock when the announcement of the huge US government investment happened!

Maybe Defund Trump’s plot/pork remodeling of FBI headquarters on Pennsylvania Ave to block competition with his hotel property a block away - get relief going, defund Trump

Do we get it yet? These are reps working for themselves, not the people they are supposed to be working for. Can we please vote for people that actually care about American citizens next vote,

How can these fools be so out of touch? And how the f*ck did the Senate wait until the last minute to take up the bill? As if they don’t have a calendar showing them July 31st was coming?

If only Chuck and Nancy had acted like the Repubs and blocked all the deals that already saved the most wealthy if they didn't also protect everyone else. They're part of this.

So Americans suffer while Trump plots to steal an election?!🤬 CrookedTrump TrumpLied150KAmericansDied TrumpVirus LetThemEatCake

ANY MEETINGS WITH PEOLSI AND SCHUMER ARE FRUITLESS!!

C’mon! It can’t be that hard!

What is your plan B? Maybe you should join your kids in the streets

‘The odd couple’: Mnuchin and Meadows struggle to make a dealSteven Mnuchin and Mark Meadows hail from different corners of the GOP. But they have emerged as central players in a Washington drama that could decide whether Donald Trump can save his presidency, as well as how far the economy sinks amid the pandemic Reporting like this is just a game. 150,000 people are dead. A gestapo-like military abducting and beating up protestors. 12,000 troops removed from Germany on the wishes of a foreign enemy. An economy that works only for the wealthiest. But Politico talks of saving the madman.
