House Republicans got their CR passed, but the important news is that Democrats held together in voting no. With only 1 Democrat voting yes, and 1 Republican voting no.
I think it is great except for the weak Jared Golden of Maine who just let his constituents down and voted with Republicans to pass the CR. We need to get rid of people like him to include the Senators who do not vote no. It is a mandate to these Senators to vote NO. Grow a spine damn it!
Please send him someplace else. I really don’t want him in Maine him or Susan Collins. I don’t really give a shit where they go as long as they get the hell out of the bad job they’re doing and not living up to their oath of office. No wonder they run don’t dare to face people
Agreed. I live here too and I don’t want him here either. But if he crawls back to some backwoods cabin and no one has to see him again that’s fine. As for Susan…same. She can take her Russian asset lobbyist husband and slither off into the woods.
He will claim it’s because he represents a district which voted for the felon and I favor of this shit show we’re currently in. He’s trying to straddle the fence bc the $$ he gets is mostly from Dems, so he runs as a Dem but he’s really a wolf in sheep’s clothing. My last conversation with him began with him saying “I appreciate your opinion of the facts (note the use of his words here) and I don’t always agree with trump, but some of the time he’s right.” I swear, those were his exact words. Last straw. 🤬
Time to vote for some firery new Dems for Senate! Don't let reports of suppression and righing discourage you! Our votes can still count!
In the meantime, call your Senators and demand they go ape against the MAGAmaniacs and that it's okay to do so, especially if MAGA wants to 86 our social programs that so many put their own money into and if they don't, you'll vote their tails out!
Schumer is not the biggest problem. There is a risk adverse mentality in about 1/3 of the Democratic Senate caucus. Schumer would do whatever his caucus wanted if they made their direction clear---Jason
We can't tell Schumer this as his office phones go unanswered!! As a NY resident I find this deplorable. We are being taxed but DEFINITELY NOT BEING REPRESENTED. And our so-called *rep* #SeditiousStefaniQ is of course down on her kneepads.
I think that the democrats had better not cave and vote for saving the republicans. The republicans own this mess and the democrats need to stop bailing them out.
Think we need to spell it out in BIG BOLD NEON letters - pass this CR, pass this INSANE budget that murders the sick, the very old and the very young and we WILL be out for blood. That's NOT a threat, that's a promise a promise of self-defense - they're KILLING US and STEALING OUR MONEY
I’m hoping there is a compromise that we do a CR with adjustments that goes month to month, somewhat like millions who live paycheck to paycheck. Praying those tax breaks for the wealthy are trashed.
Democrats need to stand strong against the republicans. We need to get them the hell out of Washington! And they need to take Presidents Musk and trump! We are better than this. Our message should be resist and fight back at any means possible!!!!!!!
SHUTDOWN NOW!!!
HONESTLY PEOPLE, COULD IT GET ANY WORSE? MAKE THE REPUBLICANS OWN IT!!!!
Call Democratic Senators and tell them, because they aren't getting the message.---Jason
I agree ☝🏾

I promise you I will work my ass off to send Jared fucking Golden back to the back woods of Maine. 🤬

Agreed. Small skiff out in the ocean. That's where he belongs!
Troy Jackson is running. Man of the people. Let’s get him elected. If anyone will stand up for the small guys it’s this man.
Love Troy, and am working on it!
He’s not just weak, he’s a full blown traitor. He runs as a democrat so he can prevent a real democrat from filling the seat. He is pure MAGA riffraff
Why did he do that???
He will claim it’s because he represents a district which voted for the felon and I favor of this shit show we’re currently in. He’s trying to straddle the fence bc the $$ he gets is mostly from Dems, so he runs as a Dem but he’s really a wolf in sheep’s clothing.

Here is Goldens contact number. Already left my message.
Democrats need to ban together! We the ppl of this country want our lives, jobs and freedoms back - NOW! Stand up to the GOP, don’t back down!!!
Would be refreshing to see voting what is best for the country vs what is best for the individual’s re-election!!!!!!
A girl can dream!
The Senate needs to fight as hard as house reps. Dem voters will show up next election if their leaders show some spine.

Dems have voters? Dems have leaders?😂😂😂😂😂
Schumer needs to step down.
Schumer is not the biggest problem. There is a risk adverse mentality in about 1/3 of the Democratic Senate caucus. Schumer would do whatever his caucus wanted if they made their direction clear---Jason
HE SHOULD TELL THEM WHAT TO DO!!!
We can't tell Schumer this as his office phones go unanswered!! As a NY resident I find this deplorable. We are being taxed but DEFINITELY NOT BEING REPRESENTED. And our so-called *rep* #SeditiousStefaniQ is of course down on her kneepads.
🤞🙏🤞🙏🤞🙏🤞
I just wish they ALL had voted no. I have lived through many a CR. This is not a CR, it is a fiasco.
Schumer needs to get a backbone, communicate, & stand up against the CR!!
Jared should be punished by democrats for voting for a CR that leaves out shuttered departments and vet burn pit and agent orange support.
Time for him to go, away.

Wondering if support for Ukraine might be more of an issue in the Senate.

Dems need to REFUSE to help the Republicans. This caving is getting ridiculous.
No cooperation with fascist budgets
Democrats need to stand strong against the republicans. We need to get them the hell out of Washington! And they need to take Presidents Musk and trump! We are better than this. Our message should be resist and fight back at any means possible!!!!!!!
Bout time they united. The lone Dem who voted for the CR sold us down the river. I hope his constituents make him pay for that.
They will! OH THEY WILL!
Let the Republicans take the heat for their decisions. Don’t cave! !
Thanks for reporting on this! Good for the House Dems!
