Good Grief, pink! What a find.
So, this is the mystery reason behind that big story about a court room being cleared and media removed, all over the news a couple of weeks ago
High profile reason, indeed.
Exactly.
Oooh. How do you like this one?:

Senate Passes Stop-Gap Spending Bill to Avoid Shutdown, Wall Fight
Now that the House has passed its version, the two versions must be reconciled.
Resolving Differences (Transcript)
A bill must be agreed to by both chambers in the same form before it can be presented to the President. (Notably, the U.S. Constitution requires that any bill with revenue provisions must be a House bill. With this exception, it does not matter if a bill is passed first by the Senate or if it is passed first by the House.) Once one chamber passes a bill, it is engrossed that is, prepared in official form and then sent (or messaged) to the other chamber. In a majority of cases, the second chamber simply agrees to the exact text passed by the first chamber, in which case Congress has then completed its action on the bill.
In some cases, the second chamber instead decides to amend the first chambers bill. The second chamber is often proposing, in effect, an alternative version of the bill, which may differ from the bill in minor or substantial ways. In some circumstances, the alternative may even embody a proposal on a different topic. Once the second chamber agrees to this proposed alternative to the bill, it may send the proposal back to the first chamber for possible consideration and a vote. The receiving chamber may also respond with a counterproposal, and so on. This back-and-forth trading of proposals by the House and Senate is called amendment exchange, or sometimes simply ping-pong. For the bill to have a chance of becoming law, one chamber must eventually agree to the proposal that the other chamber sent it.
Sometimes, the resolution of differences between the House and Senate proposals may instead be accomplished through a conference committee. A conference committee is a temporary committee formed in relation to a specific bill; its task is to negotiate a proposal that can be agreed to by both chambers. Each conference committee is made up of members of the House and members of the Senate called conferees who are drawn primarily from the committees with jurisdiction over the bill. Through a combination of informal negotiations and formal meetings, the conferees try to hammer out a compromise, drawing on elements of the competing proposals that were adopted by each chamber. If a proposal can garner the support of a majority of the House conferees, and also separately, a majority of the Senate conferees, then the negotiated proposal is embodied in a conference report. This conference report can then be considered in one chamber, and, if agreed to, then considered in the other chamber. Regardless of which chamber goes first, the conference report is considered under sets of procedures used for other business. For example, note that reaching a vote on a conference report in the Senate may require a cloture process. For the bill to move to the next step in becoming law requires both chambers to agree to the conference report without changes.
I know, I’m just being Captain obvious for any unaware lurkers.

Trump Warns Shutdown Will Last “For A Very Long Time” If Dems Vote ‘No’ On The Wall

From the article:
“...If Democrats vote no on the wall (and yes for open borders and crime) Trump warned there will be a shut down that will last “for a very long time.”...”
WOW!!! I started laughing when I saw that! Did he do what I think he did?
He either gets the funding for the Wall.... or the Govt shuts down,... which means that the Derp State is not as active.... which means the Swamp can be cleaned out some moar!
The Dems/DS are inside the Trap! Wall in place kills their feeder system... shut down govt leaves them vulnerable and easily contained.
Nevermind the political ramifications.
To me, more than possible!
Supit Democrats. Been here so many times, we know the drills.
Don’t they know the Shut Down Government no longer plays among typical Christmas readying Americans.
Congress honesty ranks at 8%! (This would be one of the reasons why that is.)
It is well-known that the city of Rome was built on seven hills or mountains, but did you know that Washington DC was also built on seven hills?
Yes, Washington D.C. really does have seven hills:
1. Capitol Hill
2. Meridian Hill
3. Floral Hills
4. Forest Hills
5. Hillbrook
6. Hillcrest
7. Knox Hill

As the proud people of #Iran celebrate the longest night of the year & the victory of light over darkness, I wish for them prosperity and freedom. As the Persian poet Nezami said, even in hopelessness there is hope; at the end of a dark night there is light. Happy #Yalda!

Senate procedural vote to call up Hse bill with wall changes started at 12:31 pm et. Flake voted no. Senate is 51-49 GOP. They may need Pence to break a tie. But GOPers need all of their members here. Otherwise, they cant even start debate on the bill
Even if they do get Hse bill w/wall money on the floor, McConnell has to file cloture to end debate on the bill. If you do it by the book and file cloture today...you cant even take the cloture vote (which would fail, because it needs 60 yeas), until SUNDAY.
There are no side negotiations going on now to avert a government shutdown.
So unless something drastically changes, we are cruising toward a government shutdown.
In order to handle existing spending bill which has been ricocheting between the House and Senate for some time now, the Senate NEEDS TO GET ONTO THE BILL. Otherwise, they are stuck. So far, Senate lacks the votes.
Process #1 for Hse passed bill ) Vote to concur with the House changes. If the Senate does that, the House and Senate are aligned and the bill goes to the President for signature.
Process #2 for Hse passed bill: Senate concurs w/hse changes, but also make ANY change to the bill (called concurring with an amendment”). Then the bill goes back to the House because, again, the House and Senate are not aligned
Process #3 for Hse passed bill: Senate could disagree with Hse. The Senate would actually take a vote to disagree in tHse changes 2 the bill & ship the measure back to the Hse because, again, they are not in sync. Each of 3 options is “debatable” which could entail cloture
Thanks for the B&B meme.... what a contrast!
