    Doesn't matter who is President. THE FEDERAL RESERVE is running the USA.

    I see one brave Republican took a stand, and the Chief of the Swamp shot him down -

    President Donald Trump called for throwing him out of the Republican Party. Former Secretary of State John Kerry called him an "a--hole." His Democratic colleagues said he threatened the public safety of everyone in the Capitol. And even his own Republican House leaders tried to talk him out of it, according to a source.
    But despite the pleas and taunts, Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie did it anyway, calling for a recorded vote on the largest economic stimulus package in US history, briefly unifying almost all of official Washington in their view of him as a nuisance.

    On Twitter, Massie explained his problems with the $2 trillion bill responding to the coronavirus pandemic. He said the bill was "stuffed full of Nancy Pelosi's pork," including $25 million for the Kennedy Center, which Trump has defended since it's "essentially closed." Massie also said the stimulus "should go straight to the people rather than being funneled through banks and corporations like this bill is doing," criticizing the legislation's hundreds of billions of dollars for distressed companies hit hard by the economic fallout.
    Massie noted that "millions of essential, working-class Americans are still required to go to work during this pandemic." He asked, "Is it too much to ask that the House do its job, just like the Senate did?"

    For many members of the House, the answer was yes. The outcome of the bill was all but assured; it passed on a voice vote Friday, two days after the Senate unanimously approved of the legislation. The members ultimately came back simply to deny Massie's motion to request a roll call vote.
    But Massie's move forced members to scramble back to Washington during the middle of the pandemic. Trump said on Twitter that the congressman was a "third rate Grandstander" who "just wants the publicity."
