In blow to Trump, US Congress overrides defence bill veto

The United States Congress has voted to override President Donald Trump’s veto of a major defense bill, bringing to an end a tumultuous legislative session and a political showdown that pitted the US president against members of his own Republican Party.
In a rare New Year’s Day session, the Senate voted 81 to 13 to reach the two-thirds majority required to override Trump’s veto of the National Defense Authorization Act.
Trump had threatened to veto the defense bill, which includes pay raises for America’s soldiers and modernizations for equipment because it doesn’t include a repeal of Section 230, a law that shields internet companies from being liable for what is posted on their websites by them or third parties.
Trump also criticized the Senate on Friday for blocking his push to increase COVID-19 relief payments to Americans. “Now they want to give people ravaged by the China Virus $600, rather than the $2000 which they so desperately need. Not fair, or smart!” he tweeted.
