Tucker Carlson Crushes $600 Stimulus Checks

For months, our government has worked tirelessly, they say, to relieve our nation's suffering, suffering that's mostly due to their arbitrary shutdowns.

Until President Donald Trump spoke up last night, the "solution" appeared final. To ensure they could go home for Christmas, members of Congress agreed on an omnibus spending bill and a COVID relief bill. This might be hard to fathom, but you might — depending on income — get a $600 check. That's right, $600. How generous! $600 with no strings attached.

Tuesday, Tucker Carlson opened his show discussing the monumental decision:

"After tense negotiations and multiple rounds of televised theatrics, Congress has passed a spending bill. It's 5,593 pages long and allocates $2.3 trillion, including more than $900 billion in COVID relief," Carlson began.

"That's a lot of money, but on the other hand, there's a lot of need. Thanks in part to government lockdowns, more than 100 million Americans are out of the workforce. One in six restaurants is closed. Huge parts of the retail sector are in tatters. J. Crew, Pier 1, Neiman Marcus, Brooks Brothers, Century 21 and many others are in bankruptcy."
