I don't know how they will do the retroactive part, I believe that would be sent out electronically just like the stimulus checks, but we shall see. Thank you. I don't want to give out misinfo, I clearly hear beginning of June yesterday, but others are saying they weren't able and it was Aug 1st, so not sure :( |

User ID: 77491669 United States 08/08/2020 05:28 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Now the democrats will sue & tie up this money in court & the supporters of democrat filth WILL STILL blame Trump! Quoting: Mental Case Also, those of us who were really hoping for that stimulus check may have to wait even longer while they fight. I really hate these a holes. All Pelosi cares about is making Trump look bad, no matter who suffers. She has her gelato. |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 77857086 United States 08/08/2020 05:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | he said it's for those making less than $100k a year and it's expected to go on through into the new year. but the end of the year for sure. (and it sounds like it might be retroactive starting August 1st (a week ago.)) Is that couples making less? Together were over the limit I want to know this also. My husband makes $130,000 and I make less than $100,000. We file jointly and that number is less than $200,000...so do we both get it or do just I get it? |
Anonymous Coward User ID: 79079929 United States 08/08/2020 05:29 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | It seems important to question whether the president is allowed by law to do the things he's claiming he's going to do. The president is a known liar and much of the action he wants to take seems to require the involvement of Congress. Quoting: Anonymous Coward 79244210 Fact: He CANNOT provide new funding for anything with an EO. he's not a liar fact check the fact checkers, they are full of shit you read an article saying trump has lied about x number of things, but actually dig into the claims and you find they are bogus snopes should be banned from the internet Fact: He CANNOT provide new funding for anything with an EO. Facts are facts and not even Trump can change that. Here's another fact: Veteran's Choice was passed in 2014 and signed by Barack Obama. Trump keeps lying that he signed it. He didn't. That is a bald assed lie. He got called on that lie today. What did Trump do? He turned tail and left the podium. Fact. He allowed himself and IMO likely even 'crafted' that scenario- now, a significant amount of attention is on that particular program and it's details... WHY? Why open your "look at all the great stuff I am doing this very second" pitch with a finger point to a more or less irrelevant issue, done by others, that he is taking credit for? (Let the enemy do all the heavy lifting for you... hello Sun Tzu). Being the baller that he is, my guess is there is something that POTUS knows there is... a big ol' turd lurking just beneath the surface, that could stand to further aggravate/destroy his enemies- Sorta like the whole Russia thing, what happened there? Biden and Co. were exposed and POTUS was exonerated, that's what. Surprised nobody has figured out big daddy's MOA yet- allow the attack and redirect, Akido their asses... he must have Steven Seagal as a consultant. |

Six months would be July 1st, not June. 1.July 2.August 3.September 4.October 5.November 6.December |

Re-Instate Smith-Mundt! User ID: 79077841 United States 08/08/2020 05:31 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | Someone already explained, he cannot manufacture money by Executive Order. All he can do is EXTEND what is already in place which are the payroll tax breaks and the non-eviction thing. Pelosi and the Democrats (who are currently in majority of the House of Representatives) totally control the purse strings so if Nancy gets miffed America gets no money. This is why America MUST vote to re-take the House, retain control of the Senate, and re-elect the President on November 3rd. "I have come to the conclusion that all news should be treated like 9/11, assume it is a psyop with actors participating in a staged event complete with props, until proven otherwise, in which case assume whatever is being recorded, reported, televised, is distortions/lying by omission/outright lies, until proven otherwise." - Anonymous, 4-13-12 |

For those of you who are hoping he will actually deliver on the promises he made today, let's look at what he promised to sign and deliver by last Sunday: Trump: "We're signing a healthcare plan within two weeks, a full and complete healthcare plan. We're going to sign an immigration plan, a healthcare plan, and various other plans." Thread: On Jul 19th, Trump promised to sign and deliver a full, complete healthcare plan. Didn't happen. Now he promises it by the end of August Today: No healthcare plan. No immigration plan. No "various other plans". It's always just around the corner, isn't it? |

User ID: 77416429 United States 08/08/2020 05:34 PM Report Abusive Post Report Copyright Violation | So, here is the summary of what he is doing; Trump on Saturday signed four executive orders, including one that provides $400 a week for additional unemployment insurance benefits -- down from the $600 benefit that expired July 31. Another would extend a moratorium on evictions in addition to orders that would provide deferments for student loan payments and create a payroll tax holiday for those making less than $100,000 annually. I'm hearing the media (yeah, that bunch) criticizing the "payroll tax holiday" (As describe here) as being only a deferment of the taxes and that wouldn't help folks because they would have to pay them in a lump sum later BUT is that accurate or is this an actual "holiday" he is providing?

Nothing to do with Congress. Read what he said: "We're signing a healthcare plan within two weeks, a full and complete healthcare plan. We're going to sign an immigration plan, a healthcare plan, and various other plans. Nobody will have done what I'm doing in the next four weeks." "The decision by the Supreme Court on DACA allows me to do things on immigration, on health care, on other things that we've never done before. You're going to find it to be a very exciting two weeks." 1. He said he would sign a full and complete healthcare plan by August 2nd and he said he could do that without Congress because of the SCOTUS decision on healthcare. He hasn't done that. 2. That was on July 19th, about three weeks ago. Trump said "You're going to find it to be a very exciting two weeks." Did you find it to be a very exciting two weeks? 3. Then he said "Nobody will have done what I'm doing in the next four weeks." So within the next week, Trump promised us that he is going to do what nobody has ever done before. Did you believe any or all of those? For con men, you keep your suckers on the hook by always telling them your payoff is just around the corner. |
