At least it didn't include the stupid war spending Biden wanted.

Not sure it will pass the Senate without money for Israel though Biden said he will sign it if it does

This is NOT how you govern!! Celebrating a CR is like celebrating shooting yourself in the foot instead of the head.

We need a fucking BUDGET!!

Then the blame will be placed on the Senate.

Senate already has the bill for funding Israel.

Indeed we do. But they are too busy passing bills picking the National Gun or reducing people's salaries to 1 dollar. Those things are waaaaayyyy more important than a budget it seems

The bill with zero chance of passing and even lower chance of being signed into law

If you are saying Schumer and Biden are blowhard asswipes, I cannot disagree.

There is not a single elected official in DC that does not match that description

House passed the bill. Clearly Schumer and Biden are incapable of compromise.

He should get his priorities straight. As should the rest of the elected.

As should the electorate, for that matter. More so, truth be told...

Don't you find it odd that we haven't had an actual....you know....budget, in years?

Is that not troubling to you?

Indeed it is. But as long as people keep voting for the duopoly and reelecting people at a 90% clip, why would they bother as the voters keep giving them their seal of a approval.

House votes to keep on spending like drunken sailors. Woohoo! Let's be proud of them preventing a government shutdown!

‘President Joe Biden is prepared to sign the House-approved government funding bill if passed by the Senate, a White House official said Tuesday.

“If it passes the Senate, the President will sign this continuing resolution that maintains current funding levels and has no harmful policy riders,” the official said.

Beyond the pressing government funding fight, the official also called on House Republicans to abandon “extreme, partisan appropriations bills” and work with Democrats on fully-year appropriations bills. The official went on to call on Congress to pass funding for Israel, Ukraine and border security as well.

“Looking ahead, House Republicans must stop wasting time on extreme, partisan appropriations bills that break the bipartisan agreement two-thirds of them voted for and instead work quickly with Democrats on full-year appropriations bills,” the official said. “Congress must also address urgent national security and domestic needs—including funding for Israel, Ukraine, humanitarian assistance, border security, WIC, and other critical priorities that have bipartisan support.”’ ibid

We’ll see if Republicans stop wasting time on extreme, partisan appropriations bills.

This will happen again in January.

It's not a duopoly. It is a political class. They masquerade as two parties to keep the rubes in line. If they are a Dem, they are political class.

If they are a RINO, they are political class.

The political class is the enemy of the People of the USA.

Same thing, different words.

The political class is the enemy of the People of the USA.

And yet we the people keep voting for them. When is the last time you did not vote for a Repub?

And the beat goes on.

The House can't really be holding the purse strings if they write blank checks!
