Schumer Orders Democrat Senators to Filibuster the House Passed Budget

[Rawley]

I'm not a Trumper.

Not even a DEM.

If you mean an Anti-Trumper Republican? Yep that's me.

WW

Got it. You're one of the ones that got us into this $36T shithole that we're in.

 

[kyzr]

The Schumer government shutdown....

I remember when there was a Trump-45 shutdown.
It went on for a few weeks, then Trump caved.

 

[jwoodie]

Schumer will allow just enough (retiring?) Democrat Senators to end the filibuster.

 

[Rambunctious]

If the government does shut down Trump and Musk can make all the cuts they want and no one can challenge them... so dems had better be careful....

If you voted for Trump or any other President in the last 100 years.

You are part of the club.

Nope

 

[Seymour Flops]

None of us will fall for it but for the liberal loonies who fall for everything.

Come on, man!

Could they really be that stupid? No, right?

I already blame maga republics for the shutdown.

I stand corrected . . .

What do you mean it doesn't shut down?... its called a government shutdown for a reason....

We don't have government shut downs. We have government slow downs. So SS checks still go out? Yes. Do air controllers work? Yes. Do FBI agents still work? Yes.

Shouldn't we dispense with this nansy-pansy type of "partial" shutdown bull crap.



If Congress is going to shutdown the government than they should be required to actually shut it down. None of this "essential" work force bull shyte.

Shut it down and make it painful so that Congress will really hear from constituents.

• Government workers (all of them) are sent home with no back pay for time missed. This includes EVERYONE.
• Air Traffic Controllers get to stay on the job until aircraft have landed, no new flights are allowed to take off or enter American air space from other countries if they took off after the shutdown time.
• FBI, Border Patrol, NSA, CIA, etc. - Go home. We'll call you to come back.
• Government processing of financials stops.
• No Social Security checks issued.
• No Medicare checks issued.
• No VA checks issued.
• No pay for the military.
• Payment to State and School districts for everything stops.
• Federal Courts shut down.
• Federal Prisons? Lock the inmates in their cell with a weeks worth of MRE's.
• etc.

Congressional staff is sent home. The only ones allowed to work in the empty Capital Building are the actual members of Congress because under the Constitution their compensation cannot be reduced during their term of office so they are the only ones getting paid.

If a shutdown was a real shut down Congress would think twice before ignoring their responsibilities and pulling political stunts.

But MSM will finally Sugar coat the Schumer Shutdown like that and not act like it’s the end of the Republic like a Republican engineered Shutdown

It is a Republican engineered shutdown.

The passed a bill in the House with no compromise with the DEMs. Then the House left town. Not the GOP is wondering why the DEMs don't want to vote for a bill they had no part in creating.

LOL when is the last time Dems compromised on the Budget with republicans when dems were in power?

 

[Concerned American]

So, looks like a "shut down".

And watch how the Dems with the full aiding and abetting of the liars in the MSM try to blame Republicans.

Don't fall for it.


Oh! The humanity. Democrats are about to inflict horrible damage to people, people losing Medicare and Medicaid en masse, with their filibuster of the House budget.

Senate Dems set to filibuster GOP budget resolution, raising shutdown fears

Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer has said Democrats will stand in the way of efforts to pass a Republican-led budget patch that passed the House earlier this week with almost no bipartisan support.

Democrats are up to their typical obstructionist crap. I can hear the screaming from Schumer already---"Oh Noes that might work, shut it down." Trouble is, this time the shut down will fall squarely on democrat shoulders and there isn't much the MSM can say to justify it.

 

[WorldWatcher]

In the days prior to MAGA types getting to power with their slash and burn.

Used to be compromise and negotiations weren't bad words, they were a means of coming together to achieve common goals.

Some Senate Dems are already caving and Schumer knows it’s on him and may relent
