They can’t get enough votes to limit debate so they are going to yak right up to the limit.

Schumer has been looking upset, people keep trying to calm him down.

Watching this vote on C-SPAN makes me wonder how in the world can “We the People” elect such old biased elitists to
“run” out country’ Most of the time you see the same ones camera hogging down front. They are a joke but the joke is on us the working tax payers. They need to go.

The vote to limit debate failed, so we are headed to a shutdown. 50 -48.

And yes, there they all are on the Senate floor, talking with each other, like it is just another day at the races.

Useless.

This is all kabuki theater.

I see Dicky Turbin holding a small gaggle court, in the lower corner.

Why is Ben Sasse (the Never Trumper) standing so close to the lib gaggle?

....”This is all kabuki theater”....

And they enjoy it all.....and the all always stand in the same familiar places while the voting goes on..I think they know where the cameras are so they’ll be seen.

Precisely.

I don’t know if they plan to vote on an alternative measure tonight, They are not leaving.

But if they do, then to has to go back to the House for a vote.

They have 100 minutes, otherwise the gov’t shuts down at midnight.

What are arguing about—whether the CR will be for one week, 3 weeks, or four weeks?

Imbeciles all.

One can only pray. The larger the voter turnout, the worse for these incumbents. Time to go door to door.

The Senate has become our very own House of Lords.

The Founders are spinning.

They can (by numbers trickery) actually keep running full on until the 22nd. This is just the prelude.

It’s simple. DACA does not have to be addressed for the CR.

If Demo rats insist upon it, they are shutting down the government.
