Last I saw they were taking final roll for a vote... and the screen was captioned that they have an agreement on a final bill and they were about to vote... on what? I HAVE NO IDEA... hut I have to assume this is bad.

I went to C-SPAN2 hoping to see Cruz... but there was Reid asking for rollcall for a vote...

Huskrrrr @2: "Hopefully this will be Reid’s last stand."

No, after his trial, conviction and sentence, Traitorreid needs to stand one more time - on the trapdoor of the gallows just before that short drop and quick stop rids the U.S. of his hellspawned life.

That’s what I’m watching and it says “Alert- vote to advance $1.1 trillion spending bill”.

"A few good men..."

God plus one is a majority! I personally think Cruz is God's man of the hour. He has certainly been exhibiting a kind of Godly wisdom that none of the others have.
