Well, Merry Effing Christmas! Congress has come to an agreement on the much ballyhooed COVID Relief Package!
My colleague Bonchie has already given the particulars, so I won’t belabor the finer points:
“Yesterday, Congress announced a deal had been reached on a new COVID relief bill, at least insofar as getting it to the floor for a vote. In reality, almost no one has actually read it. This all happened after months of stonewalling by Democrats as Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer sought to ensure maximum political damage occurred to President Trump. They played a cynical game with people’s lives and the media praised them for it.
