Chortle, Chortle

Post by andy7171 »

White House press secretary Jen Psaki said Tuesday that President Biden’s name will not appear on stimulus checks that will be sent to many Americans after the $1.9 trillion coronavirus relief bill is passed.

The decision represents a break with the previous administration, as former President Trump's name appeared on stimulus checks sent by the Internal Revenue Service to millions of Americans.

“We are doing everything in our power to expedite the payments and not delay them, which is why the president’s name will not appear on the memo line of this round of [stimulus] checks,” Psaki told reporters at an afternoon briefing. “The checks will be signed by a career official at the Bureau of Fiscal Service. This is not about [Biden]. This is about the American people getting relief.”

Yeah, because the Q followers just need something actually to happen to stoke them up again.

Biden doesn't need to stroke his own ego. He doesn't want to delay help to satisfy his own vanity.

I'm not sure Joe even remembers where his vanity is, let alone his nightstand, or bedroom, etc.

Actually it’s because he’s no longer CAPABLE of signing his own name...nor even spelling it.

I heard Psaki's statement.
I just find it interesting and avoidable. I mean why even bring it up at all?
WTF is the Department of Fiscal Responsibility?
Its not like he's signing them for real. It's a GD'ed copy of his signature.

If you don't think the media should have asked the question, that's fine. We can debate that.

It sounds like Andy thinks Psaki had a press conference just to announce that Biden's name won't be on the checks. Which would be silly. But, didn't happen.

AZ is right, I was thinking 6-12 months at the earliest. Now it seems like they're going to have to stretch it to get to 90 days.

How so? I jumped into the wacko conspiracy group before the election for entertainment. I said so here. The people are going apeshit about this supporting their "thoughts".
I totally understand a check from the IRS not being signed by the actual president. I mean, I get direct deposit and haven't seen a check from the IRS in close to 10 years.

JFC, Andy! I tried to hijack your thread (Andy7171 style) with a discussion on the hotness of Psaki.

Wait...red hair...I think I get it. Oops!
