1. I feel as though our country is literally booting back up

After four years it feels a little disconcerting to remember that, oh yeah, the government is supposed to be on the people's side, not the autocrats'.

I hadn't dared to let myself really get happy and comfortable with the idea that yes, Trump is leaving for real, and that after the shitshow that was and is 2020, something actually really wonderful and liberating happened on Election Day.

Announcements like these are going to be the norm (except for the part about how the information wouldn't have been hidden in the first place). It's amazing!

4. That's a great analogy

I realized this morning that I've been carrying a ton of anxiety in my body. It is beginning to ebb away.

Great feeling.

And it will be even better when some Grand Juries are convened to look into some of this crap. Maybe a Special Counsel.

[BigmanPigman]

12. I was thinking the same thing a few hours ago.

I actually caught myself sighing when I watch the news and hear of the new cabinet, etc. It is a sigh of relief. I will expect it to be even greater come Jan. 20th. I haven't felt this calm in 4+ years when I watch and read the news. I forgot how it felt.

[pazzyanne]

24. Definitely the same for me!

Sleep has returned to my life.

6. +1

Well said.

[leftieNanner]

2. And how many Lamborghinis did our tax dollars pay for?

The more they try to hide all of this, the more will come out.

[greenjar_01]

3. Clawback + Restaurants ACT NOW!

Now!

5. It's gonna be a "who's who" list of Trump donors, Trump Org Buinesses, and various hi-profile

Republican state/federal legislators. Let the public see who benefited from monies that should have gone to small businesses.

[secondwind]

7. Jarvanka benefited from this program tremendously..................

[JI7]

8. This is why i say even if they pardon each other, we still need to expose

everything that happened.

[pecosbob]

9. Devin Nunes' Cow does his best impersonation of Arnold Horshack

[Laelth]

10. Yeah, I wanna see.

That whole program stunk to high heaven. Show us the real beneficiaries of HUNDREDS OF BILLIONS of dollars of American largesse.

11. Like they'll obey a little thing like a court order...

[getagrip_already]

23. the laughter is just a pardon away......

These asshats have assumed they can break any law and the magical pardons will let them walk away free and clear.

I'd love to find a way to block that path and watch the looks on their faces.....

13. K&R

Looks like a whole lot of investigations coming up for Biden's AG to work on, and as others have said, it will will most likely include republicans in the House and Senate as well donors and trumps family.

[OAITW r.2.0]

14. This really is an important story and I sincerely doubt the PE/VPE will let this drop.

It will get released, but crank up the pressure immediately on getting this into the House for review and investigation.

There was a shitload of money spent.....where did it go to and how did they spend it? Start hiring RICO lawyers for the incoming DOJ jobs.

[SWBTATTReg]

15. Has it already been six months (before these names were to be released/etc.)? Wow. Amazing that...

six months (or some interval of time that was supposed to go by before these were made public)...I always wondered why in the hell was that set up this way (hidden names of those receiving payments)...I suspect that there is going to be quite a few surprises including believe it or not, multiple trump entities receiving these payments plus entities favorable to trump too (his buddies/friends). A giant grab for all, money wise.

[grumpyduck]

16. Ho hum, another appeal coming.

[essaynnc]

17. I disagree that the WHOLE program stinks.

As a small business owner, we got a PPP loan and it covered salaries and rent for two months. If I hadn't gotten it, I would have had to lay employees off and let the state take care of them. But we're talking 5 people, and what I considered a reasonable amount of money, $16K, not millions!!!!

Yes, it helped keep us afloat.

[Laelth]

21. If you retained your employees, even though you didn't need them, I give you credit.

That’s what the law was intended to do. As you know, in many cases, that’s not how these Federal funds were used.

-Laelth

[essaynnc]

26. That's what we did....... eom

[LeeAndrews]

28. Same here

I have 4 employees I was able to keep this summer with our PPP. We used the entire PPP for employee wages. I am grateful for the program. I am not grateful to learn that so many abused it.

[ResistantAmerican17]

18. Aha!!!! Now the $450 billion kept from Yellen makes sense.

Rat *ucking thieves, rat *ucking thieving. Gawd I hate these *ucksticks.

19. My daughter was put in charge of filling out and getting the loan

For the Honda dealership she is manager of. She worked her ass off, only so many loans were given and she was so happy when bank called her to say she got one.

She put in a ton of overtime which she already works 10 hr days, but did so to keep employees paid during those first months when everything was closed.

She told me few days ago she had a bunch more reports to fill out to see if they don't have to repay loan. I said I hope you get something for this and she said if it works she gets a huge bonus.

But knowing her she would have done it for her employees anyway.

She feels really bad though a few small businesses she goes to didn't get one because they didn't know how to fill it out, like place that does her nails.

[Gidney N Cloyd]

20. What in the WORLD would be a reasonable justification for ever keeping info like this secret?

I can imagine why Trump & Co. wouldn't want it out there but at the outset of the program, before any shenanigans took place, who would write into the rules that records of borrowers be kept private?

[Hermit-The-Prog]

22. The trump + GOP criminal organization depends on Democrats "moving forward".

No consequences means no rule of law.

[Ford_Prefect]

25. Looks like Christmas will arrive a bit early this year.....a gift which will keep on giving, too.

[vapor2]

27. And did Mitch Mcconnell's wife return her money???

Just can't imagine she needed it but I think she kept it.
