It's really nice of these folks to make it clear who in Congress are truly delusional and out to do more damage than good.

Yes, she has a SS-experienced lawyer helping.
Yes, documented well by physicians.
Yes, her US Senator has expressed an interest.

Every day trump turns out to be a bit more of a loser than we thought he was the day before.

$600 is better than nothing for some.

$0.25 is not.

The stim check should go towards those unemployed or with businesses failing.  I.e. it should be relief,  not stim.  I don't need $600.  As Krug Man pointed out,  those of us who are going out less and traveling less,  and have regular income,  don't need a "stimulus" to spend more.   If they send me one I'm signing it over to Food Bank.

NO - she wont say what the disability is

Yours, however, is obvious.

Ellis said pursuing alleged election fraud should not supersede the Constitution.

"We have to still make sure that even though we see that our country has been undermined by corruption, our solution can't be to undermine the Constitution ourselves," Ellis said.

"We have to go through the process, we have to hold our leaders accountable. And at the end of the day, if we don't get a correction, in this case, we have to fight to make sure that this never happens again."


Well stated.

But  the family down the street whose kids can’t go to school and the father can’t get work gets $2400, enough to bide him over till  Biden  who , as we all hear, will make us all whole again!

"... we have to fight to make sure that this never happens again."

Ms Eliis has this right, but she is applying it to a fiction, a fabrication and right-wing fantasy. which never hapened in the first place.

What we have to fight to make sure never happens again is empowering delusional populist leaders with strong fascist leanings, with no understanding of the beating heart of our democracy. And who crave pure power. And will do anything to keep it. That's what we have to fight against.

And in particular a delusional leader, like Trump, who is  emboldened and enabled by equally delusional power-hungry parasite fascist syncophants who feed the monster with lies and insane conspiracy theories to stoke a massive ego, just to nibble from his decaying skin.

Barton seemingly doesn't care about folks like that.  Either that or he just failed miserably to explain his point.

I think her aim is to be commended.  Despite what any may think of her politics or who she works for.

Thanks for answering.  And at least you were respectful enough not to call her a heifer or something of that sort (you are more mature than some here - congrats)
