Hey Michael, seems like people are hoping for the short term resolutions. What's the strategic benefit for Dems there? Just that Republicans have to go through this mess constantly and could mess up big time?
the benefit is the GOP doesn’t want to have this fight over and over and in order to give them that concession, you gain concessions from them. ideally those concessions including ending DOGE and reasserting Congressional authority over spending
Yeah, I would have been livid if they allowed the vote. I just started seeing positive messages about short term CR's and hadn't seen anything about that strategy until now so wanted to make sure I understood why they would be a good thing.

They shouldn't make is beg. And they still have no plans.
They aren't making demands in exchange for votes or messaging at all
