Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA) and Majority Leader Chuck Schumer (D-NY) are rushing through a three-month spending bill Wednesday in a whirlwind development that will send Congress home through the election.
The agreement gives Schumer what he has long craved – the opportunity to pass a spending bill in the lame duck session after the election but before the new Congress is seated in January, locking in spending levels and policy priorities before an expected Republican takeover in the upper chamber relegates him to minority leader.
Tuesday evening, a jubilant Schumer announced he reached an agreement to speed the bill through the Senate that very night.
“I just locked in an agreement to pass the government funding bill tomorrow without amendments, avoiding an unnecessary government shutdown,”

Dems Win. Illegals will Vote.
Surrender! We see the same Republicans claim to be great Conservatives that actually take actions to pass Dem Legislation over and over.
DEMOCRATS ARE LAWLESS BECAUSE REPUBLICANS ARE BALLLESS !!
GROW A PAIR, MIKEY!
.
You knew the GOP was going to talk big while eliminating the Voter Integrity elements. Now, they will feign outrage after they orchestrated this very outcome.
Dems always Win, Republicans surrender.
Pussies
To hell with the Uniparty!!!
Eff the Deep State!
Burn it down!!!
At this point, you can’t blame the Dems. They are doing what they need to do to win. Our side capitulates. We know the Dems are the enemy. It is time to realize few Republicans are our friends. Some are worse enemies than the dems, as they only pretend to be on our side. Pretty much all of them need to go.
No wonder Mikey was voted in as speaker so easily.
They should have gotten more than just a promise to release the J6 tapes. The only good thing he’s done.
he’s a RINO(?)
Only way that happens if Mikey gets trans surgery with transplanted pair.
Mike Johnson is a beef sandwich
Hes a COWARD.....PERIOD.
“Speaker Johnson Caves”
They can just use that phrase as a cut ‘n paste from now on
Won’t ever change
We could use at least one more if not a lot more mean te
Weathers
People hate Trump for mean tweets they prefer this complete wimpiness.
They prefer non citizens voting as long as there’s no fighting
It is disgusting Jesus Himself said He cannot deal with lukewarm people
All is not lost.
These spending bills are not written in stone.
If Trump wins and Republicans win healthy majorities in both houses of congress...
And IF Johnson can be deposed as Speaker in the next session,
This spending bill can be easily modified by legislation mid-stream.
Big “IF’s”, but that’s the reality.
I hate to say it but too many evangelicals are clueless boobs. I still have many telling me to back off “deep red” Lyin’ Mike.
Tell me, again, why it was good to get rid of McCarthy?
Agreed!
Did Johnson have the votes to do anything else?
At this point, the guy is just trying to limit the size of the Democrat majority in the new House to <50.
I swear if Brad Sherman gloats,”we rolled them again” i’m gonna punch someone.
Trump will never ever utter the words balanced budget. He believes in using OPM’s.
He blew up the federal debt to heights unimaginable.
