Many sources are reporting that Trump finally signed the pandemic relief bill:
- Trump signs stimulus and government spending bill into law, averting shutdown
- Trump Signs Pandemic Relief Bill After Unemployment Aid Lapses
- Trump signs stimulus bill ahead of government shutdown, releasing checks and aid
- Trump signs COVID relief bill amid pressure, but adds conditions
Not gonna summarize all the bits in it - it's some 5k pages of legalese gobbledygook, but I understand it continues augmented unemployment benefits, eviction suspension, funding to prevent government shutdown, and another direct cash payment.
I'm sure it also has a bunch of "porky pork", but the people are suffering, time is of essence, and it should have been done months ago.

Watch SCOTUS rule that it's legal with the liberal justices dissenting and Trump's justices in the majority, and then our constitutional scholars and liberty tree waterers will be nowhere in sight.
