Warnock on whether he’s no on the bill AND cloture, says “If I weren’t a preacher, I’d tell you what kind of ‘no.’”

As far as I understand it, 10 Democrats voted for the Republican budget because, if they didn't vote for it, there might be a government shutdown which would give Trump the power to fire federal employees and shut down agencies -- TWO THINGS TRUMP AND MUSK ARE ALREADY DOING ON A DAILY BASIS

@schatz.bsky.social spent the first month of the Trump regime claiming to be a coup fighter on Bluesky to @briantylercohen.bsky.social and others, but went back to X 2 weeks ago. He may soon cast the deciding vote for the Musk coup bill.

@amyklobuchar.com has issued a statement that does not mention cloture but is very hard to interpret at this point as anything other than a NO on cloture. Schumer needs 3 more votes out of 6 undeclared. www.klobuchar.senate.gov/public/index...

I don't want to raise false hopes, but I don't think this is over. If you haven't called your Dem Senators yet today, now's the time.

UDPATE: Staffers confirm Sen. Jacky Rosen (D-NV) is NO on cloture.

"We have to fight back. If our party isn't willing to stand up and resist, how will anyone believe that we will fight for them when we regain power? We have a new oligarchy controlling the government. This isn't the top 1%, this is the top 1/100th of the 1%!" - DNC chair @kenmartin.bsky.social

The fight going on in the Democratic Party right now is not between hard left, left and moderate. It’s between those who want to fight and those who want to cave. And Team Fight stretches across all ideological aspects of the Party. Misread this at your own peril.

Trump and Musk are decimating basic government services while driving up costs for everyday Americans. Trump wants to keep flouting the Constitution. I’m a hard no on cloture and strongly oppose the GOP’s partisan, cynical shutdown ploy.

KEEP CALLING. PEEL OFF ALL DEM SENATORS YOU CAN. ☎️: (202) 224-3121 Tell them to vote NO on Cloture and NO on CR. Vote is pushed to after 1:15ish for now. Situation is fluid. The only public YES votes are Schumer and Fetterman. They need 7-8 total. KEEP CALLING. Call retiring Senators too!

@booker.senate.gov is a Democratic deputy whip. Booker is against cloture but has not committed to bucking Schumer, Durbin, and Gillibrand to whip against cloture. Call Deputy whip Cory Booker (NJ) — 202-224-3224 (the other deputy whip @schatz.bsky.social is holding out)

@schatz.bsky.social is one of the Democratic deputy whips. He has not committed to bucking Schumer, Durbin, and Gillibrand, despite promising @briantylercohen.bsky.social a month ago: "Where we can use legislative leverage, we will do so." Schatz needs to WHIP AGAINST CLOTURE. 202-224-3934

DC constituent just talked with @hirono.senate.gov, she REFUSED to commit to vote NO on cloture for the Musk coup bill. She's wearing a "Support Civil Servants" pin but ignoring AFGE's call to filibuster. Added to the list. 202-224-6361 docs.google.com/document/d/1...

Senate Democrats can’t surrender. Make sure your senator votes NO on cloture and doesn’t cave on the extreme MAGA spending bill. 👇

NEWS: We polled our locals yesterday before Schumer's surrender asking what they would do to hold accountable Senate Dems who cave on the GOP bill. 67% said they'd show up at town halls or public events to express their anger. 78% said they'd support primary challenges. We'll see where this goes.

Why are people mad at Chuck Schumer? Is it the whole rolling over and playing dead like a dog while another dog takes a giant shit on your face thing?

I will just put this out there. If all the senators who are saying they want to block this bill really wanted to badly enough they could force Schumer's hand. This isn't 'if Mike Pence has courage'. A leader doesn't buck the overwhelming majority of his caucus. Doesn't happen.

CALLS ARE WORKING - it has bought us precious time, but we NEED to keep the pressure up. Tomorrow is the cloture vote. KEEP CALLING: (202) 224-3121 ☎️☎️☎️ Tell your Dem Senator to vote NO on Cloture and NO on the Republican spending bill. Do NOT assume your Senator will be good on this. Trust me.

Don't take this as gospel. It's not official. It's a very knowledgable source's best understanding of the situation. This persons likely Yeses on cloture are. Schumer, Hassan, Peters, Durbin, Schatz, King, Shaheen, Fetterman, Cortez Masto and Gillibrand.
