On December 21, Congress passed the Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021,
a $2.3 trillion bill that pulled together a number of different pieces of
legislation, including a $900 billion coronavirus relief bill and a $1.4
trillion appropriations bill (which included 12 separate annual
appropriations bills). Today’s news is that Trump is refusing to sign the
bill into law.
Here’s what’s at stake: the bill provides $300 a week in federal
unemployment benefits on top of state benefits, and without it, expanded
unemployment benefits ran out today for millions of Americans. The bill
increases the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP) food support
program by $13 billion, and allocates $25 billion in assistance to help pay
past-due rent. It also provides $20 billion to buy more vaccines and about
$8 billion distribute them. The bill also calls for a one-time $600 direct
payment to individuals.
That’s the coronavirus relief piece of the measure. Another piece is the
regular appropriations bill for the 2021 federal fiscal year, which ends on
September 30, 2021. This includes military spending, aid to foreign
countries, and the money that keeps federal programs afloat. It has $1.4
billion allocated to the wall on our southern border. Congress should have
passed this appropriations bill in time for the start of the 2021 fiscal
year on October 1, 2020, but it didn’t, so it has kept the government funded
through continuing resolutions. The one under which we are currently
operating expires at midnight on Monday, December 28.
Here’s the third piece of the measure. More than 3000 of the 5593 pages of
this massive bill are additional measures that have nothing to do with the
first two. They extend tax breaks from previous laws, amounting to tax cuts
of about $200 billion. They include money for flood control and coastal
protection. They fund community health centers and historically Black
colleges and universities. They reauthorize intelligence programs for 2021.
They establish the Women’s History Museum and the National Museum of the
American Latino on the National Mall in Washington, D.C. (although it
appears they do not allocate money for them, but simply authorize their
establishment, as required by law).
The Consolidated Appropriations Act of 2021 passed Congress by large
bipartisan majorities. Trump has not called congressional Democratic leaders
in more than a year, but Treasury Secretary Steven Mnuchin was part of the
negotiations, and spoke for the White House. Everyone expected that, after
Congress had passed the bill, Trump would sign it into law.
But he left for Mar-a-Lago on December 23 without signing it, and is
threatening not to. In a surprise video on Tuesday, December 22, he called
the legislation “a disgrace.” He complained about the $600 stimulus
checks—it was Mnuchin who insisted on that amount—and demanded the amount be
raised to $2000. He also complained about “wasteful spending and much more,”
although some of the things he called out, including funds for Egypt and the
Egyptian military and money for the Kennedy Center, were his own requests.
Republicans were stunned by his sudden hostility. Democrats, who had wanted
higher stimulus payments all along, promptly tried to pass a stand-alone
$2000 payment measure through the House, but were stopped by Republicans.
Trump’s sudden hostility to a bill that took months to hammer out is
disastrous for millions of Americans whose expanded unemployment benefits
ran out today and whose state benefits are long gone. It also threatens to
force a government shutdown.
So, what’s Trump up to?
A couple of things. First, he is furious with Senate Republicans, especially
Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-KY) and Senate Majority Whip (the
second most powerful Republican in the Senate, who enforces party
discipline) John Thune (R-SD), both of whom have acknowledged that Joe Biden
won the 2020 election. Trump continues to insist that he won “by a
landslide” and that the election was stolen. He is incensed by any
Republican who has not signed on to his crusade, yet as he relies more and
more on marginal figures like his lawyers Rudy Giuliani and Sidney Powell
and Biden’s victory becomes more and more secure, party leaders are
distancing themselves from him. Tonight, he tweeted that it is “[t]ime for
Republican Senators to step up and fight for the Presidency….”
Now, though, Republican leadership needs him to sign this bill to help
Republican Senate candidates in Georgia. Democrats in the House passed
coronavirus relief back in May, but McConnell objected to anything of the
sort until after the election, when it became clear that control of the
Senate was going to depend on the outcome of a runoff for both Senate seats
from Georgia. In that state, the two Republican candidates are having a hard
time because voters are disgusted that there has been so little help coming
from the Republicans for people hurt by the economic crisis that came in on
the heels of the pandemic. If those Senate seats go the Democratic
candidates, Jon Ossoff and the Reverend Raphael Warnock, the Senate will be
balanced 50-50 between Republicans and Democrats. In the case of such a tie,
the position of the Senate Majority Leader goes to the top member of the
party of the U.S. President, meaning that a Democrat would replace
McConnell.
McConnell assured the Georgia Republican Senate candidates that there would
be a coronavirus relief package before Christmas, and they ran on that
promise. Now Trump has them over a barrel.
That’s one reason he’s suddenly stalling.
The other is quite likely that he is angry and frustrated at his impending
loss of power, and is lashing out to hurt people. It seems of a piece with
the fact that he and then-Attorney General William Barr resumed federal
executions in July 2019, and that he has sped up the executions of federal
prisoners since his November defeat. During his administration, the federal
government has executed ten prisoners, more than any president since Grover
Cleveland in 1896. This includes executions during the transition to the
next administration. Traditionally, presidents stop executions during this
period, leaving life-and-death decisions to their successors. One person in
conversation with White House officials talked with Jeff Stein of the
Washington Post about Trump’s scuttling of the bill and said, “He’s just
angry at everybody and wants to inflict as much pain on Congress as
possible.”
Trump’s supporters are urging him to “pocket veto” the Consolidated
Appropriations Act, taking advantage of a weird option at the end of a
congressional session. Normally, a president has ten days, not including
Sunday, to review and sign a bill. During a congressional session, if the
president doesn’t sign a bill within ten days, it becomes a law. But if the
congressional session ends within ten days, the bill does not become a law.
This is known as a pocket veto. The 116th Congress—this one—officially ends
at noon on January 3. If Trump got the bill on December 24, and all
indications are that he did, the ten-day window ends on January 4. So, he
could, in fact, run out the clock in such a way that Congress could not
override his veto.
For his part, President-Elect Joe Biden is scathing of the machinations that
could leave him inheriting an epic disaster. “[M]illions of families don’t
know if they’ll be able to make ends meet because of… Trump’s refusal to
sign an economic relief bill approved by Congress with an overwhelming and
bipartisan majority,” his transition team wrote today. “This abdication of
responsibility has devasting consequences.” Biden pointed out that about 10
million Americans will lose their unemployment insurance benefits, paychecks
for military personnel will be at risk, a moratorium on evictions expires,
small businesses will fail, and distribution of vaccines will falter. “This
bill is critical,” he wrote. It needs to be signed into law now. But it is
also a first step and down payment on more action that we’ll need to take
early in the new year to revive the economy and contain the pandemic….”
Biden noted that “In November, the American people spoke clearly that now is
a time for bipartisan action and compromise.” Congress has stepped up to the
plate with this appropriations bill, Biden said, and added that “Trump
should join them, and make sure millions of American can put food on the
table and keep a roof over their heads in this holiday season.”

Earlier I said that if I were a Believer, I'd believe that Donald
Trump was the Anti Christ.  But I think I erred, a human trait.  Trump
is not the Anti Christ.  He is one of those old Roman Gods.  Think
about it!  Trump loves his bbooze, he thrills at the sight of lovely
young goddesses, he enjoys the attention of, and playing with, human
women, and he is so vain that even the thought of some lesser being
disagreeing with him sends him into a rage.  A vindictive rage.  an
all consuming, get even with the entire Earth and Heavens rage.
