Kentucky Rep. Thomas Massie has decided his opportunity to add an egregious delay to passing the much-needed coronavirus relief bill is to grandstand by demanding that legislators from all over the Untied States, who are already dealing with serious public health issues, scramble back to the House in order to give an in-person vote. Rep. Massie obviously took cues from fellow Kentucky Republicans Mitch McConnell and Rand Paul, both of whom have added egregious delays to this process at different points in the crisis. Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez made the trip back to Washington from Queens, New York—a U.S. city dealing with the largest and most frightening outbreak of the disease in our country to date. She came back because people like Rep. Massie want to score political points by saying something about bullshit fiscal conservatism and possibly kiss Donald Trump’s ring.

But Rep. Ocasio-Cortez wasn’t having any of that. Before Democrats were able to defeat the dumb GOP stunt on the House floor and pass the stimulus bill, she used the 60 seconds she was given on the floor to absolutely slam the Republican Party’s handling of this national crisis. She slammed the lack of much-needed medical supplies and specifically raged against Republican senators who were fighting and delaying and hemming and hawing over this massive public relief bill so they could give a no-strings-attached bailout to big businesses. The same big businesses who used their last no-strings-attached bailouts to profiteer instead of creating better businesses that served the American people as a whole.
