The Senate on Thursday passed a massive $1.7 billion omnibus spending bill, sending the bill House for a hasty vote before Friday midnight to avert a partial government shutdown.
The bill includes at least $44 billion in additional money to help Ukraine thwart Russia's invasion and was thrown into peril overnight by a GOP efforts to force a vote on an amendment to the measure to extend a Trump-era effort to stop immigration amid the pandemic by using a decades-old law known as Title 42.
The one-year funding measure passed by a 68-29 vote in the Senate, according to the Associated Press and is expected to pass the Democrat-led House.
Independent Arizona Sen. Krysten Sinema reportedly brokered a deal to end the partisan stalemate by purposing her own amendment that also delays the ending of Title 42 but also includes more funding for the Homeland Security Department, which gets enough Democrat votes to extend the immigration ban and pass the entire funding measure.
Took ill in 1992 DOA 2008 2016 was a fluke.
And a condom.........................
The money advanced towards DHS specifically can’t be used for border enforcement.. it can only be used to process border jumpers... this OMNIBUS throws our border completely open.

All need to be primaried. Not a one is worth a warm pitcher of spit.
Rubio voted to advance the bill but didn’t vote for passage.
“ Thanks to sinema.”
And 18 Republicans, who were given the green light by McConnell
The GOP works for billionaire big donors, especially the military industrial complex. They sneer at you and me.
We once had a beautiful republic . . . but, we couldn’t keep it.
So long, America . . . we hardly knew ye.
Hello, Amerika. Can’t say as I’m happy to meet you.
Biden should have to personally sign each and every page.
There are two views:
1. Ayn Rand’s “Atlas Shrugged”
and
2. The Cloward–Piven Strategy - A political strategy outlined in 1966 by American sociologists and political activists Richard Cloward and Frances Fox Piven.
Both claim the the current political order must be destroyed in order to rebuild it in their political ideology.
One radio pundit recently remarked, “To defeat a Liberal, you must give them everything they want.”
We will soon find out who wins.......................
I’m shocked, shocked I tell you DC is full of corruption.
This is what happens when those empowered evil POS don’t fear the people anymore. If there would’ve been a red wave, those bastards would’ve been shaking in their boots. I blame the American people they continue to vote these pieces of shit in office. Sorry, but I am so done with these pieces of garbage. This country is finished and the sooner we realize it the quicker we can move on. 😡 please China, or Russia nuke the effing out of DC!
Shameful
The republican party is a lost cause.
We truly need a conservative patriot party
We have a single party administration that I would call Communist...
We have a single party administration that I would call Communist...
Oops, double Communist
Patriots and conservatives need to find a new party.
