I hope all democratic senators understand this. We know for sure that one does not. Hope there are no others.

All that glitters is definitely not Golden.

Idiots.

If a UK Opposition MP voted with the government, they would be expelled from their party, and they would not be able to stand again under that label.

If Dems want to be independent, they should stand as independents.

The dogs are catching the teslas and the cars of the people that live there!

Not one democrat should be voting with republicans or anything out of the party line right now. this is what I hate about dems, they don't get it, they think they are more cavalier or someone wants to be a maverick and it fucks up the message, it's engaging. Maybe primary threats are needed

69metsfan.bsky.social•2 days ago

Word is that my Senator, John FetterMANCHIN, will vote to approve the CR. He has turned into an A-#1 jagoff.

egoncap.bsky.social•2 days ago

Perhaps they weren't actually given a mandate from the American people.

gumshoeless.bsky.social•2 days ago

👍

sokyle2.bsky.social•2 days ago

No Democrat votes for the CR !

solotraveler66.bsky.social•2 days ago

Oh except for Fetterman because he, my friend, is no democrat.

tr3esquire.bsky.social•2 days ago

Facts.

enoughistoomuch.bsky.social•2 days ago

Seems right to me!

napinglionfarm.bsky.social•2 days ago

We had about the same majority and we got it done with our their help

1970cj5.bsky.social•2 days ago

But if the democrats don't vote for it grandma and my goldfish will die.

hookcity.bsky.social•2 days ago

What an amazing concept Art Candee

I think there's an actual word for that, oh yeah, bipartisan

duna1.bsky.social•2 days ago

I've heard that John Fetterman said he would vote for the bill cause he doesn't want a government shutdown...

I think his stroke may have caused some permanent damage. Not the same guy since then.

jenzunleashed.bsky.social•2 days ago

Why do they need to negotiate if Schumer will just give them everything they want?

jackdelecto.bsky.social•2 days ago

How much more damage would a government shutdown do compared to what DOGE is doing? Probably not much. So what are some democrats afraid of?

sawitcoming.bsky.social•1 day ago

They have no spine and continue to act as if what was normal still is. These ARE NOT normal times and the old ways will not work. But dems will cave and give the Felon another win.

@schumer.senate.gov PLEASE VOTE NO!!! Do not yield!

gumshoeless.bsky.social•2 days ago

Compromise and Negotiation.

Two words that dOge has deemed verboten and stricken from the Republican King's English,

luckiiyu7.bsky.social•2 days ago

And how about not trying to steal our Social Security, Medicaid and Medicare!! Literally STEALING FROM WE THE PEOPLE!!!

doge-bag.bsky.social•2 days ago

Yes! Voting for cloture and allowing the CR to move to the floor for an up and down vote would be a huge mistake by dems. They would be enabling the further traumatization of federal workers by Musk and his DOGE-bags, and the gutting of key services for the American people, all the way to October! 🤦‍♂️

vesemir66.bsky.social•2 days ago

100%

bakerbrown6.bsky.social•2 days ago

Guess we can write off Fetterman again

gumshoeless.bsky.social•2 days ago

His stroke may have affected his one time considerably more appealing and resolute manner.

He needs to be pushed and prodded.

Otherwise, we are doing precisely what this WH is ferishly hoping to accomplish: splinter, divide, and conquer.

I won't give up on any Democrat right now.

batfink.bsky.social•2 days ago

just like the sun rises everyday....democrats will cave

reallydebs.bsky.social•2 days ago

And kept all those poison pills out! Ds need to stand strong against the things that will harm Americans

I agree. Democrats, do not support Republican Fascism., https://cbwrong.blogspot.com/2025/03/american-exceptionalism-we-have-always.html?m=1

jimmar1.bsky.social•1 day ago

Apparently, Schumer and some Democrats thought that if Republicans shut down the government, it would be bad for the country and that the Republicans actually wanted to shut down the government. That is what Musk and Trump are doing at the moment. I don’t get it, but I think that’s the logic

politicsarehard.bsky.social•2 days ago

The MSM has been priming the public for days now, that if a shutdown occurs, it will be because of the Democrats.😞😞😞

solotraveler66.bsky.social•2 days ago

Negotiated rather than threatened.

toireasaoflinn.bsky.social•1 day ago

If Republicans really want Democrat's attention then perhaps they might consider impeaching Trump or forcing Musk out. Maybe use the 25th Amendment.

pastanotnoodles.bsky.social•2 days ago

But fuckin Chuck says, sure, I'll do it 🤬🤬🤬🤬🤬

revbug.bsky.social•2 days ago

If government shuts down, will trump ands musk just keep pillaging unchecked

sawitcoming.bsky.social•1 day ago

This is dems one chance to stand up for the people. And it seems they won’t.

Exactly. They filled the sandbox with dog piles and are complaining that the other kids won't play in the sandbox with them.

jayszip.bsky.social•2 days ago

@schumer.senate.gov , the US Government is a #criminal enterprise led by a #felon and a thug. SHUT IT DOWN.

lenday.bsky.social•2 days ago

That should be plainly simple for those simpletons.

mrtruscott.bsky.social•2 days ago

See also “collaboration,” Dems. People had a lonnnnng memory for that before the internet.

mickandhisdog.bsky.social•2 days ago

not sure they are smart enough to figure that one out with The Orange Blob in charge......

leorap.bsky.social•2 days ago

Don’t give an inch Democrats. Hold strong 💪 Let the republicans wallow in their lies and misery.

sevenoaks1815.bsky.social•1 day ago

And yet @schumer.senate.gov is now showing an incredible lack of courage. 😡 What a f*ing disappointment. @democrats.senate.gov

trickledown.bsky.social•2 days ago

Or they bypass the filibuster, like the Dems did a bunch of times *except* to save abortion or the VRA or anything that helped what’s left of the middle class

Cloture isn’t protection

Except people like Gillibrand are going to bend the knee because she'll actually have to do something.

What a cucked mindset.

These are our 'leaders'.

disillusionedme.bsky.social•2 days ago

My Senators @michaelbennet.bsky.social and #SenatorHickenlooper (who for some reason isn’t on BlueSky) better not waffle!
