HO HO HOOOOOOOOOrribly inadequate stimulus checks! The omnibus spending bill is still in limbo as a result of Trump's veto, but Andrew still has the deep dive on what's in this 5600 page monstrosity! It's not great, but there are reasons to be positive on the improvements made over the last bill.

Also Andrew tells us what's going on with the "Red Slime" lawsuits against some Fox News personalities who spread misinformation about voting machines.

Andrew, that was an excellent Podcast on the new bill, but I have been looking at both the CARES act and the new COVID Bill and I have a question that I can't find an answer to. In the CARES act there is a part about people who have been affected by COVID, under the age of 59.5, taking money out of their IRA Retirement Plan and not having to pay the 10% IRS "early withdrawl penalty". If the money is taken out, the taxes due on it can be paid over the next 3 years. As I understand it, exemption ends on December 31, 2020. Is there anything in the COVID bill that continues this exemption into 2021? I can't seem to find any... Thanks, and keep up the good work...

Just catching up on this episode. It is somewhat moot now but I strongly object to your characterization of the $500b in the CARES Act. It's inaccurate for many reasons and ignores the fact the the Fed was responsible for establishing programs into which Treasury could invest the funds.
