Twitter would be a wasteland of state jokes and bland rebuttals if it weren’t for the significant contributions from its
Black user base. After the influential segment of the social media network coined the hilarious Moneybagg Joe trending topic, Biden Bucks is now the latest humorous bent on the upcoming stimulus payments.
We’re still hoping to properly credit the individuals responsible for coming up with both of the
President Joe Biden name remixes in the wake of the signing into law the American Rescue Plan Act of 2021, an ambitious $1.9 trillion dollar bill that addresses a number of issues across a wide economic and public health spectrum just as a year has passed since America has been sacked by the COVID-19 pandemic.

As a result, many online are expecting a nice boost of cash over the next couple of months. While the monies fall short of the promises and speculation made broadly before the bill went into law, some are looking forward to having the funds on hand and the jokes haven’t stopped flying since going into effect on Thursday (March 11).
