If this is really the Senate D plan, it's a joke. Come on, @schumer.senate.gov, this is too clever by half.
The test is this: If you don't use your power to stop the Trump-Musk reign of lawbreaking and destruction, and instead facilitate it, you've failed. This plan could end up doing the latter.

Any CR is a punt. A clean CR is better than what Republicans have proposed. And the final tax cut bill will never ever be passed.

The Dem base will grab their pitchforks and head for DC.
If @schumer.senate.gov allows any version of a 6-month CR to go through because he allows cloture -
Senate Dems must FIRE HIM ON THE SPOT. That means YOU, @baldwin.senate.gov
No one cares about show votes, Chuck. Just results.

The Dems are now full-on fascist collaborators and the kkkristofascists will be winning their permanent minority rule plutocracy.
F’ing embarrassing.
I know the smart ones see through this, and are pissed.

Maybe call your senators tomorrow. For today, do what you need to feel safe.
Come the fuck on
Vote NO on cloture. Vote NO on the House CR!!!

But only 2 before I can vote against Warner.
Called yesterday and asked each if they were planning to become Republicans.
They really don’t care.
We're all trapped in that West Wing episode where Sam will not shut up about as language and Bruno is like I want to win, quit being babies.
Stop with the Marquess of Queensberry crap and channel the dam turtle.
Just once.
You are proving that you are owned by the billionaires, too. A vote for cloture is a vote for permanent (or nonexistent) minority status in Congress. Is that your goal?
So yeah. Sadly they can be.
I hope they all die badly.
they are really that stupid
well, we wouldn't be here if they were smart
whether by incompetence or self-serving, doesn't matter why they won after the die is cast
I stand by difference w/o a distinction
This is not 2024. It is 1933.
Indistinguishable = redundant and half of us are not being represented
Can they?

He’s the democrat equivalent to Mitch McConnell.
Chuck, not so much.
We have too many overly passive candidates. This is beyond politics. It’s war. We couldn’t even put the leader of the insurrection in prison⁉️ after he tried to overthrow our government⁉️
People died from his toddler tantrum. Murderer, thief, liar & rapist, selling Bibles. 🔰
I'm hoping there's more to this. Seems to have been a common GOP tactic during the Obama years--ask for amendments, knowing they wouldn't be offered. Could be the Dem inspiration.
Who do they THINK they are impressing? The writers' room of The West Wing? A middle school debate club?
The way you win is to get the GOP to run away from headlines.

It'll be the rest of you sooner rather than later.

The Dem party leadership and most of the rank and file must be replaced.
This is a play for "R votes on amendments that we can run against in 2 years" ???
No bigger indication that they don't understand what's happening right now.
Geez.
