That's essentially the same as the first payment. 1200 each adult, 500 per dependent.

I honestly think it's more intentional than that. He's gaslighting to look good. It's like when Kudlow was appearing on tv after the EOs and saying people would get 800 dollars a week due to it.
They don't give a damn about what happens next week as long as they look good in the moment.
Well last week he asked Mnuchin when people would get the unemployment checks, and Mnuchin said today. Obviously that didnt happen, so now the move is to act like Nancy and Chuck are the reason no money is being given.
Funny how quickly he folds now that he realizes people may actually be relying on his trash EOs to go into effect. It was clear from the beginning he was hoping the EOs would work as a pressure tactic and that Congress would bail him out.He also says he supports funding of states now.

He's starting to realize that if he acted TODAY, people wouldn't get help until mid September. We're getting shockingly close to him just flat out throwing the election. If the absolute first lucky people to get money don't get anything until October 1st, then I don't see how he doesn't get bombed out in November election.
And if a stimulus bill is approved by September, ordinary citizens wouldn't be receiving the checks until like. Mid to late October, no?
eh the work is already done from the first check. I'd guess 2 weeks for the people that got theirs right away the first time.
A lot sooner. The system they set up for the first time is ready to go now.

Trump folds so fucking fast when people call his bluffs its amazing how no one keeps pressing him on other shit he's done.
So last night Trump said its fine if no deal gets made because "Look how great the country is doing. Look at my charts. You've seen my charts." And Mark Meadows is on CNN this morning practically begging the democrats to return to Washington to "put another stimulus check in every citizens hand."
He must be bored.He also says he supports funding of states now.

I mean yeah. Everyone here who complains about the state of this country better be a super voter (someone who votes in every election).
The White House positioning on the Sunday shows going back to; negotiate with us and we'll give USPS aid (something they already agreed upon before anyway). what a clown show.
it seems this is going to be the main attack and deflect during the convention, dems are holding up financial aid which is what's also causing the USPS cuts...

This goes back to what Nancy said in an interview yesterday when asked why she isn't still negotiating. She said she can't when no one on the other side can agree on what they actually want.

Work at Wal-Mart and was noticing this last week. Things have fell off so bad. People don't have money to spend and aren't even buying as much food as they were. That's a real freaking problem.
It's almost like if you give working class people money they spend it on goods that stimulate the economy.... But we better ignore that.Walmart sales soared as shoppers spent their stimulus checks

In Arizona unemployment checks sent this week included the 300 federal. It's a far cry from the 600 it should have included, but better than nothing. Fuck Trump, McConnell and others for making people go weeks with nothing and now giving them scraps. In AZ the 100 from the state is simply what was already being paid so it's 300 more than before rather than the 400 touted.
So, when these were first going into effect like a week or two ago, there was word that the extra $300 only went to people who were receiving $100 or more in regular unemployment. Im right below that threshold, so I dont know if I will get this new extra. Anyone know if thats still the case?
I'm there with you. I get a scant $60 before taxes in unemployment a week right now and it's not saying I'm getting anything extra this week. So I dunno if it just hasn't kicked in or if I won't get it at all due to how low my weekly assistance is. Live in MA.
Extremely anecdotal, but I have been using their home delivery since this all started. I put in a big order for yesterday and it was probably the first time I ever got every single thing I asked for. Everything was in stock, no substitutes or anything. Even things that had been challenging to get previously like hand soap bottle refills and dry shampoo that my wife uses.
Not yet, but they've said it'd be retroactive and cover there previous few weeks. I'll believe it when I see it.
Regarding the other question about the 100 minimum threshold. Yes, in AZ those under 100 don't qualify, which is insane as essentially those who need the extra funds the most don't get them.
If I were a governor I'd raise the floor for unemployment to 100 just to get the extra 300 federal as that money will most likely be spent in the state.
Blah, its so dumb. I was working part time most of last year due to school and they went with that rather than my average I think. I hope they dont stick with that $100 minimum, but I can totally see them doing so just to fuck over people like myself.

Second Stimulus Check May Be Excluded From New, Smaller GOP Stimulus Package Proposal
Mitch McConnell and Senate Republicans are expected to introduce a new pared-down coronavirus stimulus package proposal this week, which includes $300 unemployment benefits, but appears to exclude $1,200 second stimulus checks.

Seems in MS they turned on the need to look for a job otherwise no money. Guess we going to see a drop in claims soon.

It's all about winning the optics game. They're going to try to pass a shitty bill in order to get the dems to kill it.

Yeah, I doubt the House is going to go for that.
You'd think some kind of check to citizens would be included then. Trying to optics "democrats are withholding relief" with a bill that doesn't give everyone relief is baffling.
Not a lot of spin they can try for a bill without individual checks
Especially when the White House is openly asking for checks to be part of the deal.
If your goal is to make the dems look bad, you don't put stuff in the bill that might entice them to pass it.
