Mitch McConnell Worries COVID Relief Checks Will Make Folks Too Lazy to Work


Mitch McConnell Worries COVID Relief Checks Will Make Folks Too Lazy to Work:  During an appearance on Fox News, Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) told host Martha MacCallum that he opposes extending unemployment benefits and providing $1400 COVID relief checks for Americans, because people may decide not to go back to work.

Point well taken Mitch!  Hell, nearly everyone I know retired almost immediately after getting that last $600 relief payment a few months ago.  I can still hear them shouting at the top of their lungs “I’ll never have to work again!”  The ugly truth is, we’ll all be sipping piña coladas at the beach in Cancun right now - if Ted Cruz hadn’t already booked most of the available hotel rooms.  And, God forbid, that we end up getting yet another $1400 in this new COVID relief bill.  Hell, we’d all be purchasing luxury yachts.


That said, you can’t really blame old Mitch for having an attitude like that.  After all, he’s just doing exactly what all Republicans in congress do, which is basically nothing.  That’s right, we’re paying Mitch McConnell $174,000 a year plus perks, to complain about assisting struggling families, who are desperately in need of help.  Good work, if you can find it.  I believe it’s called “wining, dining, and pocket lining.”


So, what about that $1400 Mitch is trying to convince us is some kind of “massive government windfall giveaway?”  Well, I’m no financial expert, but my guess is, no one could think about buying even one of Mitch’s cheapest suits - for a measly $1400.  Of course, to be completely fair and to end on a positive note, I’m pretty sure that if one of us were to get COVID-19 and croak, that $1400 should come pretty darn close to covering most, if not all, of our cremation costs.  So, we’ve got that going for us.

Trump Takes to Truth Social to Spread ‘Roomer’ About Ron DeSantis

Former president Donald Trump just shared some juicy gossip about Florida Gov. Ron DeSantis on his Truth Social platform.   Trump posted, “Roomer (sic) are (sic) strong in political circles that Ron DeSanctimonious, whose Presidential run is a shambles, and whose poll numbers have absolutely crashed, putting him 3rd and 4th in some states, will be dropping out of the Presidential race in order to run, in Florida, against Rick Scott for Senate.   Now that’s an interesting one, isn’t it?” Gee, Donald Trump spreading “roomers?”  Say it ain’t so!   Now, me thinks perhaps that prestigious Wharton School of Business Trump attended might want to consider adding some basic 3rd-grade spelling classes to its curriculum.   Apparently, Trump is stalled at that level of language development where he is still spelling words phonetically.   Why his poor spelling makes him look like a real “looser.”   Frankly, I’m not sure its a wise choice for Republicans to choose ...

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal

Mike Huckabee Claims COVID-19 Death Risk Small and Sin Risk Lethal:   Former Republican presidential candidate Mike Huckabee has stirred some controversy with medical professionals by claiming that the risk of death from coronavirus is very “minimal,” but “sin is 100% lethal. Oh, really Mike?  Then how about showing me a death certificate which lists “sin” as the primary cause of death.  Of course, the fact is, sin couldn’t be 100% lethal, or a guy like me wouldn’t even be alive to write this.   On the other hand, maybe you’re on to something Mike - and sin really is lethal, and I secretly used a “ghostwriter” to write this joke. https://www.johnnyrobishcomedy.com

Trump Ordered by Jury to Pay E. Jean Carroll $83 Million

In his second trial in less than a year on the matter, a civil jury in Manhattan took only three hours to decide that disgraced former President Trump must pay $83.3 million in punitive and compensatory damages to rape victim and writer E. Jean Carroll in a drama that began in the dressing room of a New York City department store back in 1995. Gee whiz, $83 million?  Seems it turns out that even “when you're a star, they don't always let you do it.”  Anyway, so the Orange God used his big fat mouth to talk his way out of a $5 million judgment - and right into an $83 million judgment.  Now, that really takes some skill!  Talk about “The Art of the Deal!”  I’m totally impressed.  Why, its almost as if Mr. Trump and his militant, useless attorney don’t fully comprehend the basic point of “punitive damages.”   I mean, at this point, Trump defames Ms. Carroll so frequently, she’s almost gonna need to put up an electronic signboard to alert the court abo...
