Ten Democrats Cross the Line to Vote for Cloture on Continuing Resolution; Democrats Defeated

I kept looking for updates but missed it.

My absolute least-favorite subject to have to post about are these stupid CR battles.

So I'm glad this is out of the way.

Late Friday afternoon, the Senate voted yes on cloture 62-38, with 10 Democrats joining Republicans. That sets the bill up for passage on what will likely be a party-line vote after a few amendments are voted on.
Almost before Schumer's speech on the Senate floor ended Thursday, House Dems started hammering him, and that continued through the day Friday, with former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and current House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries publicly criticizing Schumer, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez saying that it would be "a big mistake" for Schumer to vote for cloture, which would allow the CR to pass with a simple majority, and mobilizing her base to call Senate Democrats.

Democrats were "melting down" about Schumer's cave before the vote. Kinda dog-bites-man on that one. When are they not melting down?

House Democrats erupted into apoplexy Thursday night after Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-N.Y.) said he would support Republicans' stopgap government funding measure.
Why it matters: House Democrats feel like they "walked the plank," in the words of one member. They voted almost unanimously against the measure, only to watch Senate Democrats seemingly give it the green light.
"Complete meltdown. Complete and utter meltdown on all text chains," said the member, who spoke on the condition of anonymity to offer sensitive details of members' internal conversations.
A senior House Democrat said "people are furious" and that some rank-and-file members have floated the idea of angrily marching onto the Senate floor in protest.
Others are talking openly about supporting primary challenges to senators who vote for the GOP spending bill.

LOL. Eat all the bags containing all the dicks.

Keep in mind that the leftwing cope is that all Republicans are regretting our votes.

@ArtCandee
The Republican CR to fund the government just passed the procedural hurdle in the Senate because of these Democrats:
Chuck Schumer
Catherine Cortez Masto
Dick Durbin
Brian Schatz
Angus King
Maggie Hassan
John Fetterman
Gary Peters
Kirsten Gillibrand
Jeanne Shaheen
Shame on you all.

Trump said he "appreciates" Schumer's decision and was "very impressed by that."

Is Trump on the level or is he trolling? Is he trying to doom Schumer by declaring him MAGA For a Day?

Either way, this is bad for Schumer.

Republicans’ partisan spending bill turns the federal government into a slush fund for Donald Trump and Elon Musk.

It’s unthinkable that any Senate Democrat would hand them a blank check by voting for cloture. pic.twitter.com/bAfJabwfkN

So does this CR actually git rid of e.g. USAID funding?

So I guess they have to vote down all the amendments if they want to avoid the shutdown.

1. The CR doesn't have to continue all spending. This one makes small changes.
2. They're using a CR because they only have one resolution (bypasses cloture) left and they want to use it for tax cuts.
3. They also have the opportunity to have rescission bills to cut budget items. Rescission bills skip cloture.

Basically, they're buying time for DOGE to identify enough cuts to allow them to do what they want to do and remain "budget neutral" to give the Democrats no opportunity to screw with things.

91 Why it matters: House Democrats feel like they "walked the plank," in the words of one member. They voted almost unanimously against the measure, only to watch Senate Democrats seemingly give it the green light.

Basically, the Democrats don't know whether to spit, shit, or go blind.

100 Don't be so declasse, dears. A proper hostess removes the dicks from the bag and places them in a serving bowl, appropriate for both the season and the formality of the occasion.

Serving them in the bag is like passing the wine around so people can chug from the bottle.

Just. Not. Done.

106 If the Dems are infighting I am sure that is good for the country so I guess I am pleased. And our work doesn't have to worry about funding until Sep so the libs there should be happy about that. We aren't fed employees so would not have been 'furloughed' unless the shutdown went on for more than 30 days. So we never get the vacation with just slight possibility of not coming back with back pay on a shutdown.

129 I'm seeing conservative commenters cheering what they claim is a "great victory." Really?
....No. The CR funds the corrupt, bloated, DeepState-run government at exactly the same level as before Trump won the election, for six more months. That gives 'em six months to steal another $400 BILLION or so, and in ways that can't be traced.
....And I'm seeing conservative *media*--who should know better--claiming the Democrats are melting down. No. The handful of Dems bitching at Schumer is *theater*, designed to fire up their rabid, brownshirt base--and it's working.

130 "..saying that it would be "a big mistake" for Schumer to vote for cloture, which would allow the CR to pass with a simple majority..."

Those dastardly Republicans, sneaking the CR through on a simple majority vote by holding a cloture vote requiring 60 votes. It's so fiendishly clever!
