As you’re well aware, a coronavirus stimulus package has been held up in Congress because Democrats have been trying to jam funding for so very many progressive pet “causes” into the bill (aka “PORK”). Rep. Jerrold Nadler asking for $4 BILLION in funding for New York City’s nonprofit museums is just the latest example.

Republican Sen. Tom Cotton accurately summed up Schumer’s comments this way:

Lincoln described how democrats used to place the blame on republicans: “a highwayman holds a pistol to my ear, and mutters through his teeth, ‘Stand and deliver [give me your money], or I shall kill you, and then you will be a murderer!’” https://t.co/kKBAje6iSi
