It did.

It may or may not pass the Senate.

But that depends on whether Senators want to stay in town through the holidays.

Ok McConnell, show you are a leader in other than judicial appointments; keep the Senate in session and force the Dems to actually filibuster until they give up and allow a vote on the bill. Then whip the weak-kneed Repubs like Collins, Flake, Corker etc in to line and pass it.

“Is everyone else as sick and tired of Schumer as I am. He is actually sickening.”

Don’t leave out his “sidekick,” Nancy. They are both reprehensible (I can’t add human beings, because that would be an affront to the rest of humanity).

Chuck U Schumer will have to convince his Democrats to filibuster disaster relief funding at the same time.

Schumer shutdown part II.

No one ever seems to corner Chuckie and ask him why he’s opposed to a border wall in the first place.

.......Is everyone else as sick and tired of Schumer as I am. He is actually sickening.......

Yeah, I watched this presser live on Fox. Between Schumer and pelosi at the microphone spewing their twisted views I had to mute the newscast. These two carried on for about 10min or so.

I saw desperation and panic from them. They know about the GoFundMe and it scares them. Trump has the rats in a corner and is starting to pummel them.

These two are most vile people.

Lots of action still to come.

And for everyone who wants to know what Republicans voted against this in the House...

Trump plays 3D chess and wins again... no one saw this move coming after he castled … and then BOOM checked Schumer. and Nancy asks, “did someone write a check?”

“... then there is a conference committee.”

I think going to confence is “debatable”.
Know if it’s subject to filibuster? Sounds like it is.

His party has two fewer Senate seats come January.

And before Piglosi celebrates, the Senate will be the graveyard for Rat- passed House bills.

Can’t this pass with 51 votes through Budget Reconciliation?

Schumer is one very sick narcissistic sociopath who leads a whole gaggle of the same in the democrat party. Trump needs to fire all these gay loving clowns in charge of the military and replace them with patriots. He needs to start preparing now. I can see what is coming.

Hey Chuck, do you lock your house when you leave? If so why?

Even so, I am in favor of a SHUTDOWN.

Just do it.

Leave it that way until at least Spring.

In that case he better have 67 votes to override Trumps veto.

No.
But I’m not sure what happens if it goes to conference- or how.
