GOP Senators Kelly Loeffler and David Perdue of Georgia have joined Marco Rubio as the GOP Senator backing President Trump’s demand for $2000 stimulus payments to Americans.
Mitch McConnell just blocked a quick vote on the increase on Tuesday, which was passed by the house on Monday.
However, McConnell did signal a willingness to address numerous Trump requests, including the increased payments and Section 230 of the Communications Decency Act.
According to Fox News:
Georgia GOP incumbent Sens. Kelley Loeffler and David Perdue, who are fighting to keep their seats in special runoff elections next week, voiced support for $2,000 stimulus checks on Tuesday.
Their announcements put them squarely in President Trump’s corner as the Senate weighs a newly passed House measure that would raise coronavirus relief payments to most Americans from $600 to $2,000.
Asked on “Fox & Friends” on Tuesday if she would back Trump’s repeated calls for greater relief, Loeffler said she was “proud to do that.”
“The president has fought for our country from day one. He continues to fight for every single American. I’ve stood by the president 100 percent of the time,” she said. “I’m proud to do that and I’ve said absolutely we need to get relief to Americans now and I will support that.”
It is unclear how quickly McConnell will move in addressing President Trump’s requests or if it will happen before the New Year.
I agree with @realDonaldTrump — we need to deliver $2,000 direct relief checks to the American people.

I’m looking at it as we’re just getting back the money they stole from us.
The money Trump stole from you?
FRAUD OBUNGHOLE for 8 years.
hessi is another foreigner that is hoping that when nance sends the dough his country will send out bucks to all of his welfare recipient buddies and then they can sit in the pub and get drunk and pay big tips to see the bar girl’s big tits, oh and then sing songs about how bad Trump is .. probably really loved the african and his mental midget leg hump joey ..
Trump gave me a tax cut. Biden wants to take it away.
most welfare recipients do not pay taxes so anything that helps Real Americans is like the joke about the roof… it is over their collective heads ..
We that work and pay taxes are on the Republicans side. All the ones that never pay a damn dime in taxes are on the Dems side! What’s the old saying? Socialism is “GREAT”, Until,
“You run out of ‘Others people’s Money’! The DamnOCrats have never “Earned a Living”!, like Pelosi, she’s worth $40 MILLION, but has never worked a day in her life! Unless giving yourself to the “Highest Bidder” counts????
Its a democrat, you expected that.
If you really paid attention, Trump is the most honest person in DC, very transparent. The others are a bunch of crooks and we need to primary them out.
I notice you interject yourself with comments that make little sense🥸 ? May want to let us know the last time a democrat gave anyone a break? Either way, we are not impressed with your nonsense.
Our best president ever in my
84 years. Any that disagree are
Very ill.
Why are Trump haters so stupid.
Exactly what has he stolen from you. All of us working class received extra money when he cut our taxes. If you lost your welfare, that’s your problem. Go and get a job
I see Trump won the man of the year award beating out Obama, while Biden had a hard time beating out the floor sweeper. Pitiful, yet he was supposed tom have so many votes for President. By the way Microsoft and the China Connection are blocking the post concerning the 200,000 excess votes over who actually did vote. Meaning Biden got two hundred thousand votes more than even had the right to vote in Pennsylvania. But the crime syndicate is blocking this news claiming it is spam, or bogus.
Your damn damocraps . giving millions to the ones that contribute to there campaigns buying exspensive gifts for their friends and families is paying for there parties and transportation . is BULLCRAP like 99%of those swamp rat Damocrap’s and RHINOS. They have the mentality rate of you APPARENTLY. If thats all you want is a communist country move to one . this country belongs to the true red BLOODED American’s
All out of tax payer money . And you probably don’t pay anything is why you are a Damocrap
Why don’t you bite your tongue off and sew your mouth shut, you Liberal, Communist creep! Or just leave this site and take any other anti American jerks with you!
The money the jobs , our savings which DEMON-RATS AN THEIR DUMB ASS SUPPORTERS STOLE FROM US.
Quid pro jo and obamala will be taking more than President Trump could ever take.
The obamala when it becomes “president” will totally get rid of our Constitution. Which has more value than money can buyden.
I’m self employed, so I don’t get a dime of any of it. Who’s stealing from who?
I’m self-employed and I got the first one. You have to go up and apply for it. It’s not automatic like if you are or ever had unemployment.
Those that do NOT work, steal from those of us that do! Show me one Democrat that has “WORKED” a year in their life? Biden, Pelosi, Barry Soetoro, and hundreds of others. I’ve worked since I was 12 years old. In the 1980’s I made over $80,000 a year. As I followed my own advice! “IF You want a ‘Better Paying Job’, then go learn how to do one!”. I never went to College, yet companies paid to send me to school at “IBM”, SoftWareAG, and others. Why? I worked hard, succeeded, and had an IQ of 146. Even did all the analysis, design, programming, testing, documenting, and training for a “Fortune 500” companies “WorldWide Corporate Salaried Payroll System”. In 18 months, with “Zulu Delta” defects. Yet the Obama regime paid $6 BILLION for an “Obama Care” system that never worked correctly! Boy would I loved to have earned even one MILLION for my work!
I agree with you Lillian, Those Damocrap’s have been taking way to much of our money for way to long. To fund their parties and pay millions to those who contributed to their campaigns and we are paying for their transportation along with them buying exspensive gifts for their families and friends . that crap needs to be stopped anyway. Then they want to raise taxes more. Just to rape is of our money .
The Senators need to stand up for having VP Pence choose the set of electors so this massive fraudulent effort to steal the election can be thwarted.
That is not going to happen.
“W R O N G”, your brain must be “FRIED”?
Yo mama said that about you, but her wish didn’t come true,oh boo hoo hoo
What do you say will happen if quo pro jo becomes president.
I hope you are wrong. It would be poetic justice for Trump to win on the tail end of this hotly debated issue. After all, he did get more legal votes. Biden got a lot of illegal ones because of the fraud. That is why there are two hundred thousand more votes cast than there are legal voters in Penn.
hessi thinks that he knows things about America.. what he does know is his country has a long way to go to even be in the running of a great country..
Send Americans the 2K, YES! But, not a penney for the pork the Dems have put i and especially, NO MONEY FOR EGYPT< PAKISTAN<MALAYSIA< Ect! That is were the Dems want to send $$. For gender studies in other countries. BULL! It is OUR money for Americans. No illegals, either!
The Trump crash and burn.
I think Albert was one of the ones with the Biden Ballot Preinting Press rolling during the 2020 election. Were those your ballots they delivered at 4 am in a Ferrari? They had to get them there fast because Trump was way ahead.
Ditch the GOBS of PORK from the “bill” and help the hurting LEGAL American citizens for once!
Why pay Americans stimulus for covid when you can give it to a foreign country and get a kick back?
Lillian, I hope you are not saying that Trump stole money from you. This President worked for the people the day he took office. Now if you are talking about ugly Nancy that is different. If you had money stolen from you you had better have an idea who you voted for.
I was talking about Congress in general. You never heard that expression? Congress is the only entity that can Legally take money from one person to hand it to another.
True and they love doing that. At times they act like it all belongs to them.
With all the foreign aid in the stimulus I wonder how much of the kick backs will be funneled through Hunters account and how much he will take for a handling fee. TeeHeeHee.
Probably 50%?
Mitch McConnell, what the hell is wrong with you. You certainly have not been doing your job otherwise you would listen to our President or at least sit down and talk to the leader of the Republican party and the nation. You Mitch someone might think you are changing your name to Pelosi. Mitch, a lot of us are getting right fed up with your actions. You need to become a Full Fledged Republican right now.
I’ll guess Soros went to his home and handed him a “Large Check” to “Buy Him”???
He needs to go away and soon!!
Yes and No. Mitch is doing a poor job of explaining himself. I think he wants the $ 600 to get to us quickly, then follow it with the $ 2,000 stimulus plus the removal of the 230 protective clause Big Tech and all those China News Media crowd are using to censor out Christians, Patriots, and the GOP while promoting then Scum-o-crats. I think it can be done through the FCC. Remove the top six managers and replace them with Loyal Christian Conservatives who support the Constitution and they can pull the license to operate from those who violate their license. You can not censor one party and promote another. That is bias, not fair and balanced. They all have to have a license. But thus far the FCC has done nothing. So let Trump reorganize them.
All small businesses in each city and town must meet and plan to reopen all their shops/stores at one time on a given day. Stop allowing the communist control that insists on starving us out of existence. Open and survive!!
Just accept orders, and meet in the park to deliver? There are smart ways to “Do Business”. Use your head, Online sales is a great way to operate. Or use some of the drug dealers tactics, have people make “Deliveries”?
A very GOOD suggestion Patricia!!!!
Fire all Democrat Liberal Governors, Mayors, and Politicians. Clean House and Make America Great Again!
Personally I don’t care if the up the $600 to $2000 or not. But, I do want them to get rid of the crap that they are sending to the foreign countries that have NOTHING to do with helping people with Covid! Gender studies in Pakistan??? And another $40 Million for the Kennedy Center? This, after they fired all their musicians right after they got their LAST $40 MILLION! AND they are closed!
Right on! Again I say this is why we need Convention of states to drain the swamp that Trump talks about. Look it up and watch the youtubes.
PORK. If they want it, send them a few cannisters of pure lard, and require them to eat it, then lock the door to the bath room, and start laughing.
If they want to win the 2 senate seats in the Georgia runoffs the Republicans better pass the stimulus increase. Republicans will lose Senate control looking like the bad guys. Why do you think Pelosi actually agreed with Trump and passed it so quickly?
So true. America is watching. This is a no brainer. Pass the covid stimulas package, Mitch, and the Republicans will win Georgia.
Love it!
We give Germany,japan, Middle East countries relief money in the the billions world war 2 and now we do not want to give us Americans more than $600 dollars in stiminlus package what is wrong
The turtle needs to go. He can not be trusted. He is part of the sleazy “Deep State”. All the deep state reprobates ALWAYS prioritize themselves first. If McConnell doesn’t like the bill then you know he hasn’t figured out a way to steal or extort money from it for himself.
It may be he is looking to combine the 230 clause with the 2,000 $ stimulus. But in the mean time allow us to quickly get the $ 600 initial stimulus.
WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE RULE. WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL PREVAIL. WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE SICK AND TIRED OF THE LIES,CHEATING, DECEAT YOUR PLANTING ON AMERICAN’S. WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE ARE GOING TO FIGHT TOGETHER AND TAKE BACK OUR AMERICA. OUR JOBS. OUR BUSINESSES. YOUR SHAMEFUL, DISRESPECTFUL, DISGRACEFUL,DISGUSTING, PATHETIC WORTHLESS POLITIANS. WE THE AMERICAN PEOPLE HAVE HEARD ENOUGH. AMERICAN’S STAND STRONGER AND STAND YOUR GROUND AND FIGHT AGAINST THESE EVIL NASTY POLITIANS. THIS IS OUR AMERICA OUR FREEDOMS OUR SCHOOLS, OUR RIGHTS, AND WE’RE ALL GONNA FIGHT TOGETHER. TAKE BACK AMERICA MY FELLOW AMERICANS PATRIOTS. THIS IS OUR AMERICA. GOD BLESS THE USA AND IN GOD WE TRUST. LORD HEAR MY PRAYER. IN JESUS NAME AMEN 🙏
Traitors to the American people while approving 10,000,000.00 for a gender study in Pakistan and who knows how much for the Kennedy Center.
Remember most of the Pork was put in there by Democrats and a few RINO’s.
albert hess…..Have you lost your mind entirely….Your President Trump did not Take Anything from you or any of us Americans….In Fact he is the one that has given things to us all that help the American People…You need to stay away from the Fake News AssHoles and look at what sleepy and the hoe want for us the American People. GRAB YOUR EARS AND PULL REALLY HARD AND LISTEN FOR THE POP.
Both Parties are playing poltical games with our stimulus package. We need to make everything stand alone, no add on bills period! Vote for stimulus alone. Vote for removal of 230 clause alone. Vote for military spending alone. Vote for all those Pork barrel projects alone. Presently they tie weak unpopular bills to one that is popular and is much needed which forces a vote on the combo. That way the creeps get to approve of their Pork!
STOP THE COUP
