I TOTALLY agree! WATCH as Sen. John Fetterman calls on Republicans to “nuke”the filibuster... but only in cases of the government shutting down. That means it would no longer would require 60 votes to remain open. REPOST if you agree! #thinblueline #lawenforcement | 111 comments on LinkedIn

Does this Fetterman proposal make sense to you?

It does to me.

John Thune doesn't want to end the filibuster.

He knows the Big Ugly Bill and the ending of Obamacare subsidies is a disaster for the MAGA Nazi Party. He is secretly hoping this shutdown lasts forever.

The Schumer Shutdown should continue

The Schumer Shutdown should continue

It has to end sooner or later. When it does, it ought to be on terms that embarrass and frustrate the obstructionist Democratics.

Nope.

Fetterman is a fool on a mission

The partisan nitwitticisms of the OP ruin what could have been an interesting thread.

No. They all need to do the work and come up with a solution.

Not likely, simp.....since 57% of MAGA voters want the Obamacare subsidies to continue.

This is a no-win situation for the Republican Party....but Trump and his band of MAGA imbeciles are too stupid to understand that.

 

[kyzr]

No. They all need to do the work and come up with a solution.

The House isn't even in session. The senate votes and democrats stop the CR. Totally ridiculous.
The only work that needs to be done is to change the senate rules for CRs, Appropriations, and Rescissions, so that the BBB budget items can all be passed as the election results dictated.

Then get on with governing.

Pass Trumpcare, the ACA with subsidies paid for by the DOGE savings and tariff revenue.
Then fix SS & Medicare.

How is the Fetterman proposal different? It will end the shutdown by allowing a solution to pass by a simple majority.

It should be a federal offence to shut the .gov down with a million dollar mandatory fine for each member if it happens....I bet congress would get their heads out of their collective ass then.

We elected a clown as President, we shouldn’t be surprised at the complete circus that followed.

The clowns were Joe Biden and Kamala Harris. Both flunkies.

The new clowns are Chuckie Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries. Trying to extort the US senate.

Meanwhile back in reality, the US House remains out of session; the democrats continue to work fo the American people while the GOP presides over total chaos.

Ask Harry Reid

Meanwhile back in reality,

You clearly don’t recognize where reality is. Hint: you ain’t in it.

the US House remains out of session;

No kidding.

the democrats continue to work fo the American people

Nope. They are actively ******* over the people.

while the GOP presides over total chaos.

Nope. There is no good reason to accept this cynical blackmail effort from the Dims.

It remains the Schumer shutdown.

Even your sock puppets would agree that it’s hard to negotiate when 1/3 of the law making apparatus is not even on the job. Who manages that absent wing; the GOP at the behest of your blob.

The Trump shutdown (this latest one--he has had several of them) continues unabated.

I have no sock puppets. Never have.

Maybe you do and you’re just projecting.

Anyway, troll; there is nothing left to negotiate. Schumer is engaged in an attempted blackmail effort. The entire blame falls on him and the Democrap brain trust.

It’s on him to end it. His ransom demands must be rejected.

Normally I would be against it BUT I’m getting really tired of leftists claiming the shutdown is Republican’s fault because they have total control of the government. If that’s their narrative then let’s show them total control.

Why does the affordable care act need subsidies?

Then fix SS & Medicare.

How?
