Holy moses! Did that really happen!?!?! I guess considering what we had the past 4 years, a dotty old fool is at least entertaining.

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/biden ... ecks-2000/In late December 2020, Democrats united with Trump to push Congressional Republicans to increase COVID-19 stimulus payments from $600 to $2,000 per person.

References to “$2,000 checks” made in January by Biden and by Georgia’s Democratic Senate candidates were to increase existing payments up to $2,000 — not to issue a new check for $2,000 in addition to the amount already approved.
Because Biden and Ossoff’s statements are consistent with the package Democrats ultimately proposed, but because their timeline for getting those payments out the door was too optimistic, we rank the claim that Biden’s proposed $1,400 checks are a broken promise as “Mostly False.”

JFC Raul, that was a quick fall. In no way, was it said it was an increase of the 600 Trump threw out to us. Never wqas it said, "And if you already got the 600, we'll send you another 1400, immediately!
I know its been rethought and revised to make it all somewhat understandable how it got to 1400. But don't act like its what they meant the whole time. It wasn't.

You asked a question and got an answer. Why are you attributing it to me or making an assumption that I agree with how it shook out? Damn...you're getting grouchy.andy7171 wrote: ↑Fri Mar 19, 2021 7:37 am

Re: I got mines!
Green Energy is the wave of the future. Higher Energy Costs? That's the economic recovery in motion, combined with GOP idiocy in Texas that took refineries off-line.
Biden has a lot of work to do to fix Trump's messes, including the border disaster Trump left. And there is plenty of border security.
And it is GREAT that Biden trusts science and is moving America Forwards, not backwards like the GOP does.

Are you hoping that if you say it twice it will make it more true? You're so far off base with those I can't even begin to retort other than todbackjon wrote: ↑Fri Mar 19, 2021 10:03 am

President Ford did it all the time too. You're so biased you can't even laugh at Biden. So sad to see your new title of Ultra-Partisan.

Nothing to see here. It was the wind according to the White House.
