The Senate is voting on the first steps to end the 40-day government shutdown Sunday after a group of moderate Democrats agreed to proceed without a guaranteed extension of health care subsidies, angering many in their caucus who wanted to continue the fight.
The group of three former governors — New Hampshire Sen. Jeanne Shaheen, New Hampshire Sen. Maggie Hassan and Independent Sen. Angus King of Maine — said they would vote to reopen if the Senate passed three annual spending bills and extend the rest of government funding until late January. Senate Majority Leader John Thune endorsed the deal Sunday night and called an immediate vote to begin the process of approving it.
The deal would also include a future vote on the health care subsidies, which would not have a guaranteed outcome, and a reversal of the mass firings of federal workers that have happened since the shutdown began on Oct. 1. The full text of the deal has not yet been released.
Limp-wrist weak morons, and of course they dont have the guns to fight fascism, and would rather ask politely for bullies to stop being abusive. Fuck these weak pathetic people in the Left, we need more radical Lefties who are willing to use the rhetoric as the MAGA dipshits and get shit done or repaired within our fucking lifetime, not decades from now.
The Democrats aren’t the Left. They are right-wingers that cosplay as Leftists.
I don’t know how many times the Dems have to show themselves to be fascist collaborators before people start voting Green en masse instead.
You’d have better luck starting a completely new party than switching to the Greens
And even worse luck continuing to vote Democrat.
