A stopgap spending bill that would avert an Oct. 1 government shutdown fell short in the U.S. Senate on Friday, as Democrats withheld support for the legislation while demanding higher spending for healthcare.
The 44-48 vote, coming on the eve of a week-long congressional recess, raises the chances that federal agencies will shut down if a deal between Republicans and Democrats cannot be struck before current funding expires at midnight on Sept. 30.
They will fold at the last minute like they always do, their resistance is a show they put on for the people who still think voting blue no matter who actually keeps fascists out of office (evidently, it does not)
That’s revealed as a lie by liberals’ refusal to vote for Mandami.
In fact, it was always a lie all along – nothing but a cudgel with which to bludgeon Bernie supporters and divert blame from liberals’ own failure.
Manadami’s not winning?
He is, but no thanks to traitorous liberal Democrats who hypocritically refuse to endorse him even though they screeched “vote blue no matter who” when it meant leftists holding their noses to vote for liberals.
Yeah where is the VOTE BLUE crowd now that there is a (hopefully) no-compromise candidate?
hisses at the neo libs
It would help if the “centrists” who are always suspiciously right wing actually voted blue no matter who themselves
I’m no centrist and can’t speak for their values, but I vote third party and will continue doing so until they actually try to earn my vote. Sitting still on a bunch of wedge issues is loser shit.
This is what I’m afraid will happen. Especially since the idiots voted to honor Kirk’s legacy of fascism.
