"Asked why she is on board with an apparently smaller coronavirus package, Speaker Pelosi cites the "game-changer" of vaccine development and Biden's election. "That's OK now because we have a new president. A president who recognizes we need to depend on science. Pelosi: "That was not a mistake; that was a decision that has taken us to a place where we can do the right things without should we say 'other considerations' in the legislation that we don't want ... I'm very proud of where we are." Says she's proud of the work of her chairs"

pelosi fooling liberals into thinking she's brilliantly fighting for "us" might be one of the most impressive grifts in washington tbh.

healthcare plz.

      between this, and the liberals spending more time wallowing about "defund the police" i'm amazed I was ever able to consider myself a democrat. really just want to post Letter from Birmingham Jail to every liberal complaining about either of these things.

    I'd like to order one large meme, please: I'd like, uh, Nancy Pelosi's head on Marie Antoinette's body while she's tearing up a stimulus bill and she's going "Let them eat Science" Oh and if you have some Chuck Schumer clapping as a side that'd be great, thanks.

      All of them! Why are they all sticking around at 80s year old, Feinstein, Fauci, Pelosi, Biden, fucking RBG before she died they're fucking ancient. And then on the other side we have these useless 30 yo strivers like Buttigeig, Ossof and Beto.

    Holy hot damn, the intangible belief in science can be used as a commodity now?!?!? Damn all those people starving and losing out on rent gonna be refreshed to hear this news.

    You know it's bad when even /r/politics is clowning her. Link is to the comments for the only article they have about this (front page is, of course, crowded with the usual assortment of 'Orang man bad' and jacking off about how much Joe won by, nothing of substance or meaning).

    A president who recognizes we need to depend on science

    She's not wrong, it's just the "science" in question needs to be the immortal science of Marxism-Leninism

    She's going to settle on something that is all around worse than the garbage plan the republicans were pushing before the election.

    It's amazing how the democrats consistently make things worse than even the lowest of republican gutter scraps.

      Like obama care, for instance, was/is actively worse than no healthcare at all.

      With no healthcare you have some amount of bargaining you can do at least. With this shit you are forced to pay an insurance company money, which you don't have, for you to be ripped off. You are paying money to a company so that you have the privilege to receive a massive bill lmao.

      And since more people are "insured" it allows for medical companies to gouge prices even more. All it did was perpetuate the high cost of medical bills.

      This is literally the only thing they have done in about 30+ years that wasn't basically the exact same agenda as a republican.

      The democrats are fucking demons.

    Trump was literally whipping up Republican votes for a stimulus bill twice the size of what you're settling on now you worthless ghoul.

    There should be pictures of McConnell grinning and Pelosi clapping in every covid ward across the country right now.
