Wait, aren’t they supposed to do this closer to Christmas? How can they jerk the heart strings off over taxed Americans without a holiday to lean on?

[outofsalt]

The government shut us down for a year and a half!
Shut them down!

[PGR88]

People believe “government” (especially distant, remote Fed.gov) actually does anything to benefit them or help their lives.

Yes, a lot of sheeple get checks from Fed.gov and are kept on the government farm in this way.

But in terms of nearly anything else, from education to food safety to road building, Fed.gov adds zero value. People can regulate 95% of their lives themselves or with their local government and associations.

[rllngrk33]

Shut it down. Fed gov workers need a paid vacation from all the ‘work from home’ they’ve been doing for the last 18 months.

[FRinCanada2]

Looks like they only got 48 out of 60 needed. Lol

[Alas Babylon!]

Wait a minute!

Biden said it wouldn’t cost ANYTHING.

Why would we need cloture if it’s free?

And then pi$$ on the ashes.

• Pelosi's Democrats remain at odds, which is good news for the country
• Pelosi Plays Chicken With House Progressives, Schedules Three Votes For Next Week That “Must Pass”
• Pelosi Backs off Monday Vote on Infrastructure, Which May Be the Death Knell of Biden's Agenda (For now)

[ConservativeInPA]

Schumer voted against with the Republicans. Something smells here.

Procedural game so that he can “reconsider” if/when he gets to 59

[rfp1234]

Feinstein NOT VOTING. Missing for a while. She may as well hang on; Gruesome would likely appoint an even worse radical to replace her.

Yes. That is SOP.

Who are the two who didn’t vote?

@@@@@@@@

One must have voted with the prevailing side in order to call the motion forward for another vote ( supposedly based upon a change in circumstances that would cause previous votes to change)

Tbeir shutdowns are never really true shutdowns
