Clay Bennett for December 22, 2020

So what else is new?

Hey, CEOs can now write off business lunches. Congress always has the important people in mind, and no benefit is too big or too small to help them. The rest of the peons just need to suck it up more and keep struggling for the American “dream”.

Moscow Mitch will only pass a Matryoshka-style relief package.

Billionaires and Corporations get the chicken, everyone else has to fight over the feathers.

What do you expect from Moscow Mitch? He got the idea from Russian nesting dolls.

Blaming congress for Moscow Mitch?

All my boxes were dry so the economy hasn’t trickled down yet . . . . but it’s the thought that counts ! . . . ./S

You can’t blame Rand Paul. He didn’t want anyone to have anything. He calls it ‘free money’.

’Bout damn time considering it was an incompetent president who not only let it reach our shores but let it get out of control!

Divide 900 billion by number of working people. Are you getting that much?

Maybe the analogy of Russian nesting dolls would be more apropos, at least in the case of ones like Moscow Mitch, Issa etc.

The rich got the gold mine, the poor got the shaft… AGAIN!

Moscow’s Bitch would smile if he was quick enough on the uptake to get this.

Compromises were made to bring this downsized relief package to the US peoples. The House Dems had to back off on the $1200 payments to $600 as the Repub Senate backed off of protections for corporations from lawsuits. On that regard, I still think that if the corporation uses good CDC practices with its employees then it should be protected from lawsuits should the employees contract Covid anyway. And, afterall, the virus could’ve been contracted outside of the workplace.

Just a though folks, I came from a Christmas morning family and married into a Christmas eve family, but there is another minor dispute about the holiday – what’s more important? The wrapping or the present? In this toon the wrapping is beautiful.

Pretty sure trump will want his name on there as well, the cost of re-packaging to come out of that $600. The souvenir value will more than compensate for the difference.

This has to be the best of the rona relief memes. Everybody and their brother is complaining about the “measly” $600. A few are celebrating now that they’ll be able to afford a PS5.

Torn off boot straps will be in the last box.

Money for the wealthy is always a stimulus even when it is a three-martini lunch; money for the rest of us is welfare or even when we are getting our own money back as in Social Security it is sneered at as an entitlement. rqw5q4ew

Bastards

Ask us next year.

except that I can’t imagine any one of the Senate wishing ANYONE a “happy” ANYTHING

Stop saying “congress” when the only people fighting against helping working people are Republikkkans.

If it weren’t for Mitch and his horde, there would be regular stimulus checks until the crisis is over, plus enhanced unemployment, and rent and food assistance to those in need, assistance to states and municipalities, aid to healthcare providers (not insurance companies) and first responders.

Moscow Mitch is only letting go of the money in hopes of winning in Georgia.

When they finally get to the innermost box, it will contain two Aspirin tablets.

They stole that idea from Russia’s babushka dolls!! Russia! Russia! Russia!!
