Yes, the money which is supposed to be used to help alleviate financial stress for individuals in these uncertain times will be handed to billion dollar financial institutions first if they're owed any money.

And the delay in people receiving the $1200 supplement has occurred because Trump demanded his name appear on the checks issued. Just when you thought this idiot's ego couldn't get any bigger, he delays distributing much needed funds because he needs to see his name on checks as if it's his money. Wanker!

Thats just an ignorant lie, which is par for the course for Trump haters.

I refer you to my previous quotes above.

Those two words sum it up, as the saying goes, why bother to be part of the solution when you can much more easily blame someone else for the problem. I mean sure the problem still exists, but it's someone else's fault, if trump has taught us nothing else it's the importance of blame and shirking responsibility.

What a stupid analysis. Dude, all the crap that flows from this fiasco is Chinas fault. Thats called Reality. Its called the "but for" test. Folks in America are dying because of Chinas lies and deceit. If you cant see that, well, then TDS or fellow traveling has blinded you. And if you cant see that an immigration cut off is necessary, well, I reiterate those two conditions.

Ok, great, it's all China's fault. Now that's established how do we move on? Crickets... "But it's China's fault".

Also. I had to look up TDS according to urban dictionary it's ""Trump Dipshits". If someone is said to be "suffering from TDS", this means that the person in question is being harassed online by asshole Trump supporters."
Which I admit gave me a laugh but seems like the opposite of what you posit.
In summation:

TDS Trump Dipshits? Great, not only is you logic suspect, but clearly your knowledge of current events is lacking. That being said, Ill move on from "its Chinas fault" when they start paying the world back for the damage they caused.

Now myself, Im alwys suspicious of China defenders on the internet.....but hey, China lied and people died.

All that weed has addled your brain. Nowhere will you find me defending China, you will see that, in my mind, blaming them in no way fixes the problem.
In what way is my logic suspect?
My knowledge of current events I would describe as "current". The fact that I had to look up what TDS was seems irrelevant. The definition I provided was the top hit. Others were similarly disparaging. I see know it means "Trump Derangement Syndrome" which means the opposite of what one might assume. So, because I believe that trump has bungled his response (my opinion) and repeatedly lied about it (oh, so many facts) my opinion is null and I'm lumped in to a group that is de facto persona non grata.
Am I off your Christmas card list?

I will see your wild speculation and raise you a Treasury Department Statement:

A Treasury Department official said in a statement that “absolutely no delay whatsoever” would occur:

“Economic Impact Payment checks are scheduled to go out on time and exactly as planned — there is absolutely no delay whatsoever … In fact, we expect the first checks to be in the mail early next week which is well in advance of when the first checks went out in 2008 and well in advance of initial estimates.”

"The Treasury Department has ordered President Trump’s name printed on stimulus checks the Internal Revenue Service is rushing to send to tens of millions of Americans, a process that could slow their delivery by a few days, senior IRS officials said."

"The decision to have the paper checks bear Trump’s name, in the works for weeks, according to a Treasury official, was announced early Tuesday to the IRS’s information technology team. The team, working from home, is now racing to implement a programming change that two senior IRS officials said will probably lead to a delay in issuing the first batch of paper checks. "

And let’s not forget this absolute Chad of a move means all those who made the statement “not my president” will now have the opportunity to refuse a check bearing the presidents name.
Social media is already alive with young black guys lapping it up.
Is it even legal? Well I’m sure he checked. If it is even legal should he be doing it? Well given the cutthroat business that is politics in America these days... why not.
Oh and while we’re talking about these $1,200 checks that are going out..... let’s not forget that Bloomberg could have given every voter in the states A million dollars instead of spending what he did on his brief and ultimately futile presidential campaign.

Whatever. You've got a cunt of a president and most intelligent people understand that.

Bloomberg spent about $900 million on his presidential campaign. There are around 235 million voters in the US. That would work out at less than $4 each.

Immigration is suspended temporarily, not ended. Let’s see the actual executive order coming Tuesday.

My wife is in the green card part of the process waiting for the next steps which are non-conditional green card in a year and citizenship in 2 years. Those are filing dates, takes them 2 years to process it.

The visa program is put on hold during a time when the Mexican and Canadian borders are closed.
Schools are closed so visas for international students cannot be processed...dorms are closed...you cannot let people into the country to go to schools that are closed...That should be sorted out by the fall term.
All this nonsense about the $1200 is just sour grapes from folks who live in countries who are not getting anything.
Like the fella calling Trump a cunt would be getting $1918.43 aussie dollars if he was elgible and Australia had the same program.
I am getting $1200us....it will hit my bank electronically and electronic checks are how a vast number of citizens will be getting paid...no fucking paper check...
The folks who really need the money the most ...disabled and retired are getting the $1200 this month and on the 1st of May their usual electronic deposit...because the 3rd is on Sunday...they get the money on the 1st..a Friday..
These are called facts..
The comment about a bank withholding funds is in the case that an account holder has written an overdraft...aka bad check...big deal...
The fact is that most people are eligible for the$1200us....unless you were claimed on someone's taxes the last 2 years. This could hurt some college aged person whose parents claimed them because they were in school and mom and pop were paying their bills.
All people who are elgible will get their money.
It is far better to get it electronically...Are you aware that paper checks are rarely issued?
All people on disability..Social Security...all assistance like food stamps are all paid electronically.
This was instituted several years ago to prevent theft.
Are you aware that most people in the USA have more tax deducted from their paychecks than they end up owing? So, receive a refund every fucking year electronically?
These citizens are all on file and payments are going out.
If someone must get a paper check it will be after May 1st...This is not some huge issue...It is just some shit for the derangment syndrome folks to rant about.
I am going to take my $1200 out and spend it here in Cambodia.
I feel for anyone who is following the rules and waiting in line for their visa/green card etc.
My first wife was Jamaican and I brought her to the USA in 1987. It took 6 months and I had to go to the Embassy in Kingston and convince them it was legit.
She took a blood test and background check.
My Khmer wife has no desire to go to the USA and I prefer living here with her.
I wish all of you the best. Hang in there.
china is to blame 100%
They are certainly not part of the solution...
The fervent Trump haters always just sound like marxist creeps who don't have a clue about Trump or his supporters...nothing new...
