VERY IMPORTANT: This is just a trick. It's a way for Democratic senator to say they oppose the bill while letting it pass. It's not much of a trick. I mean, everyone will see it. But still this is simply a way of hoodwinking constituents. If they want to vote for it just vote for it.

One more thing: Punchbowl reports that some Democratic senators are considering allowing the CR to proceed to a floor vote, lowering the threshold from 60 to 51 votes. Any such vote is the same as a vote for the CR but with even less integrity. Please encourage your colleagues to be better than this

It's functionally no different from Susan Collins sighing with relief when there are enough votes for a nominee's confirmation to pass, allowing her to cast a "principled" no vote in impotent opposition
I have come to the conclusion the US should have lost revolutionary war.

there is no doubt about the outcome.
you either resist or comply. And if you comply, you aren’t representing our interests.
They aren’t going to save us, only the people can. Revolt against all of it. Do nothing Dems and fascist republicans.
Yep. This is the behavior and logic of a small child. With them it funny, here it is pathetic.
In truth, there is no government to save.
MAGA have violently attacked our Capitol and filled our government with grifters & fascists.
If Democrats help MAGA out of this mess, we'll know America is dead.
We have to cut out the dead wood. And god, there is a lot of dead useless wood.
That is how the Senate works on items where debate is unlimited (most things).

when asked how not disclosing differed from concealing her intent, they said, after a long pause, that “this is not disclosing, which is not concealing”
and @schumer.senate.gov wants to roll over and give up
