#252: Christmas Tree Bills

If the holidays have kept you full, then this episode should top you off. The team looks at the current bill being pushed by congress as “COVID Relief” and the controversy around what is in the bill. They also look at how bills are stuffed full of riders and poison pills and if the founding fathers truly meant for bills to work this way. They also talk about some new advice that minority leaders have given to the incumbent president and his senior staff and what they are looking to see changed by the current administration.Join us on Patreon for afterhours content and random silliness.Subscribe: http://www.spreaker.com/user/cellardoorskepticsYouTube: https://www.youtube.com/c/CellarDoorSkeptics/Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/CellarDoorSkepticsRSS Feed: https://www.spreaker.com/user/8326690/episodes/feediTunes: https://itunes.apple.com/us/podcast/cellar-door-skeptics/id10Website: http://cellardoorskeptics.comStitcher: http://www.stitcher.com/podcast/cellar-door-skepticsPatreon: https://www.patreon.com/cellardoorskepticsPayPal: https://www.paypal.me/CellarDoorSkepticsIntro Music: https://aloststateofmind.bandcamp.com/https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=xYKbTG3MdQILinks---------https://www.politico.com/amp/news/2020/12/08/biden-civil-rights-justice-department-443822?__twitter_impression=truehttps://time.com/5919451/civil-rights-leaders-advise-biden-harris-racial-justice/---------https://www.bbc.com/news/world-us-canada-55454720https://apnews.com/article/donald-trump-florida-coronavirus-pandemic-financial-markets-bills-f750c127c0d39a62a86ca39ef11ae7db---------https://rules.house.gov/sites/democrats.rules.house.gov/files/BILLS-116HR133SA-RCP-116-68.pdf---------https://indivisible.org/resource/legislative-process-101-policy-“riders”https://www.jamesmadison.org/ridding-congress-of-riders-the-case-for-a-single-subject-amendment/https://core.ac.uk/download/pdf/232714365.pdfhttps://www.jstor.org/stable/24877459?seq=1---------Quick SavesTanner: No More American XMAS, Give me Krampus!https://youtu.be/pmfQqyXHAeIBuddy: Google Stadia, online game streaminghttps://stadia.google.com/homeHanna: JEEEEEEEEEEBUShttps://www.history.com/news/when-massachusetts-banned-christmas
