#VetoTheBill: Outrage Over COVID-19 Stimulus Bill Filled with Congressional Pork Spreads Rapidly on Social Media

The swamp at its worst.

Bipartisan outrage is quickly building on social media over a COVID-19 stimulus bill that represents the worst of how the Washington D.C. swamp operates.

Congress agreed to the pork-laden relief package on Monday. The legislation features $900 billion in COVID-19 relief as part of $2 trillion in new spending, with every American receiving a pittance of $600 while special interests make out like bandits.

Libertarian-leaning Rep. Thomas Massie (R-KY) and far-left socialist Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez (D-NY) are pointing out the fact that none of their colleagues could have possibly read the legislation before voting to approve it earlier today.

The hashtag #VetoTheBill is spreading rapidly on social media as bipartisan anger spreads over the legislation.

Twitter users are drawing attention to some of the most egregious giveaways within the atrocious bill:

This is what the establishment Republicans and Democrats in Washington D.C. devised after President Donald Trump pushed to issue $1,200 worth of stimulus checks directly to the American people before the election, as Big League Politics reported:

Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell is expected to announce plans for a second round of $1,200 checks to most Americans next week, as a component of a second $1 trillion stimulus package intended to alleviate the economic downturn caused by the coronavirus pandemic.

McConnell plans to push the $1 trillion stimulus package next week as an alternative to more costly and politically loaded Democratic spending plans. He spoke of his plans to include a second round of direct payments akin to the first $1,200 check under the March CARES Act on Tuesday. “And speaking of building on what worked in the CARES Act, we want another round of direct payments to help American families keep driving our national comeback.”

Democrats such as House Speaker Nancy Pelosi are said to be fighting to fill the stimulus package with a goodie list of leftist policy priorities, such as “racial pay equity” and corporate board affirmative action quotas. Democrats passed a much more expensive $3 trillion spending bill in May, which was rejected by the Republicans.

It appears as the coronavirus pandemic continues to spread and Americans are prevented from returning to workplaces, the Republican Party is more willing to consider a new round of stimulus legislation.

The rules for the first $1,200 check will apply to the second, with all tax filers who claimed less than $75,000 in income receiving a stack from the federal government. Tax filers with dependents will receive $500 per child.

The swamp stopped President Trump from delivering a big win to the American people. They gave the win to foreigners and special interests and lobbyists instead.

Psychotic levels of tyranny.

House Democrats are calling on the Biden administration to investigate the social media provider Parler for its supposed role in fomenting the Jan. 6 Capitol siege as well as the company’s possible Russian ties.

Rep. Carolyn Maloney (D-NY), who is Chair of the House Oversight Committee, released a letter to FBI Director Christopher Wray demanding investigations into Parler, as the Democrats prepare unconstitutional overreach against their political opposition on the first day of the Biden regime.

“Numerous Parler users have been arrested and charged with threatening violence against elected officials or for their role in participating directly in the January 6 attacks,” Maloney wrote.

Additionally, Democrats are seizing upon the fact that Parler CEO John Matze’s wife is Russian to spread more Russian collusion conspiracy theories.

“Concerns about the company’s connections to Russia have grown since the company re-emerged on a Russian hosting service, DDoS-Guard, after being denied services by Amazon Web Services,” Maloney wrote in the letter. “DDoS-Guard has ties to the Russian government and hosts the websites of other far-right extremist groups, as well as the terrorist group Hamas.”

She concluded her letter by stating “as the Committee conducts its own investigation of these matters to inform its oversight and legislative efforts, I request a meeting with appropriate FBI officials on the status and scope of its review, consistent with protecting the integrity of law enforcement efforts on this front.”

Big League Politics has reported on the systemic discrimination against Parler by Big Tech entities as part of their institutional oppression against conservative speech:

The conservative social media platform, Parler, is already on its last legs, as the platform’s developers relied upon Big Tech to provide their infrastructure.

Parler CEO John Matze had claimed that there were a bunch of competitors vying to host the social media site. However, the notion of a free market is laughable with a handful of far-left tech monopolies dominating the world, and he was forced to admit the awful truth in a Fox News interview.

“They all work together to make sure at the same time we would lose access to not only our apps, but they are actually shutting all of our servers off tonight, off the internet,” Matze explained.

“They made an attempt to not only kill the apps, but also destroy the entire company… Every vendor from text message services to email providers to lawyers all ditched us too on the same day,” he added.

Matze said that Parler is pretty much doomed because of the Orwellian super-structure that has been put into place to destroy all potential competition.

“We’re going to try our best, ya know, to get back online as quickly as possible but we’re having a lot of trouble because every vendor we talk to won’t work with us because if Apple doesn’t approve and Google doesn’t approve, they won’t,” he said.

“Amazon is the largest cloud storage vendor in the world, and we use them to host our servers. Hundreds of them. Hundreds of servers. And they gave us basically, they said, you have 24 hours to get all of your data and find new servers. So, where are you going to find 300 to 500 servers in a 24-hour window, and how can you send all of the data from everybody out to them in a 24-hour period? It’s an impossible feat,” Matze explained.

The momentum is behind the Orwellian Nightmare, and the rule of law is dead. The people are running out of peaceful options to combat Big Brother tyranny.
