He has not made any move to block it 8n the house.

All it would take is a request to Read the Bill and the time would run out.

Read the Bill on over 4,000 pages is a filibuster.

Half the House isn’t even there. The Republicans don’t have the votes to delay and just pass a continuing resolution, which is why the democrats and traitor senators passed their bill.
I’d be happy to see him pull a rabbit out of his hat, don’t get me wrong.

“They pass the continuing resolution for the people so government wouldn’t shut down. What date did they pick? Well, let’s think of right before Christmas so members won’t be here. They will not read the bill. They’ll vote by proxy,” McCarthy said Friday on the House floor, slamming the Democrats’ strategy and adding, “I’ll guarantee you not a single member that will vote yes, I can tell you, knows everything that is hidden. Because no one has had the time to read it.”

The spending bill cleared the lower chamber in a 226-201 vote on Friday, with just nine Republicans joining Democrats to back the legislation, with one Democrat voting present. It will now head to President Joe Biden’s desk to be signed into law.

Nancy is still in charge and everyone wants to go home for Christmas. I’d like to know who the few Republicans that votes yea are.
