Pelosi sets toothless 48 hour deadline on pandemic relief deal, McConnell sends her back to kiddie table
October 18, 2020 | Tom Tillison

In the event her eyebrows haven’t already tipped you off, Democratic Speaker Nancy Pelosi is all about sending messages — in the case of her migrating eyebrows, the 80-year-old politician is waging a battle with Mother Nature.

While there is no one in Washington, D.C., more responsible for the long delay in a follow-up pandemic relief effort than Pelosi, the speaker is trying to dupe Americans into thinking that she is eager to get a deal done.

Pelosi has been negotiating with Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin for some time now on a relief package and the two reportedly spoke for over an hour Saturday, with the speaker later imposing a 48-hour deadline to get a deal done.

“There remains an array of additional differences as we go provision by provision that must be addressed in a comprehensive manner in the next 48 hours,” Pelosi spokesman Drew Hammill said on Twitter. “Decisions must be made by the White House in order to demonstrate that the Administration is serious about reaching a bipartisan agreement that provides for Americans with the greatest needs during the pandemic.”

Hilarious.

Where was this 'bipartisan' effort when the Democrats decided to hang Obamacare around our neck without a single Republican vote in either side of Congress?

48 hours or else!

Or else what, Nancy?!

Correct!   On Christmas Eve, when all were home on holiday.  Well, Christians were.
