Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) are rushing through a three-month spending bill Wednesday in a whirlwind development that will send Congress home through the election.
The agreement gives Schumer what he has long craved – the opportunity to pass a spending bill in the lame duck session after the election but before the new Congress is seated in January, locking in spending levels and policy priorities before an expected Republican takeover in the upper chamber relegates him to minority leader.
Tuesday evening, a jubilant Schumer announced he reached an agreement to speed the bill through the Senate that very night.
“I just locked in an agreement to pass the government funding bill tomorrow without amendments, avoiding an unnecessary government shutdown,”

SAVE ACT ELIMINATED. Dems Win again!
Dems Win. Illegals will Vote.
Surrender! We see the same Republicans claim to be great Conservatives that actually take actions to pass Dem Legislation over and over.

You knew the GOP was going to talk big while eliminating the Voter Integrity elements. Now, they will feign outrage after they orchestrated this very outcome.
Dems always Win, Republicans surrender.

At this point, you can’t blame the Dems. They are doing what they need to do to win. Our side capitulates. We know the Dems are the enemy. It is time to realize few Republicans are our friends. Some are worse enemies than the dems, as they only pretend to be on our side. Pretty much all of them need to go.

No wonder Mikey was voted in as speaker so easily.
They should have gotten more than just a promise to release the J6 tapes. The only good thing he’s done.
he’s a RINO(?)

We could use at least one more if not a lot more mean te

People hate Trump for mean tweets they prefer this complete wimpiness.
They prefer non citizens voting as long as there’s no fighting
It is disgusting Jesus Himself said He cannot deal with lukewarm people

All is not lost.
These spending bills are not written in stone.
If Trump wins and Republicans win healthy majorities in both houses of congress...
And IF Johnson can be deposed as Speaker in the next session,
This spending bill can be easily modified by legislation mid-stream.
Big “IF’s”, but that’s the reality.
