Home Intelligence Committee Chairman Rep. Adam Schiff (D-CA) hammered Republicans for caving to each Trump whim however $2,000 stimulus checks.
Chairman Schiff tweeted:
For years, Republicans had been obedient to Trump’s each whim.
They stood by his failed COVID response. His lies. His impeachment. His corrupt pardons. His efforts to overturn the election.
However $2,000 checks to assist People? That’s the place they draw the road?
Cross the invoice.

The opposition to the $2,000 survival checks is a stain that Republicans will carry with them for for much longer than subsequent week’s Senate runoff elections in Georgia. The American persons are going to overlook how Republicans within the Senate bent to each want aside from the one that might have offered 1000’s of {dollars} to tens of millions of People who’re dealing with starvation and probably homelessness.
Senate Republicans virtually universally stayed silent as Trump has lied about election fraud. They refused to convict the impeached president when he tried to extort Ukraine. The Senate Republican majority has alternated between working away when requested about Trump’s feedback and enabling him.
Trump desires the Senate to move $2,000 stimulus checks for his personal egocentric causes, however that doesn’t imply that after 4 years of kowtowing, excuse-making, and enabling, it isn’t hypocrisy for the GOP to say no now.
Chairman Schiff was proper. Republicans will defend something that Trump says or does with the exception of trying to help Americans.
