On Thursday, the Senate passed a government funding bill 65-35, narrowly avoiding a government shutdown that would have begun at midnight. The Senate voted to fund the government through Dec. 3rd and also voted to provide emergency funding for Afghan refugees.
The bill did not include a provision to raise the debt ceiling
The Hill reports:
“The continuing resolution contains a number of key items that Republicans called for. That includes supplemental funds to help resettle vetted Afghan refugees and hurricane recovery,” said Senate GOP Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.), adding that it was “encouraging progress.”
Senate Majority Leader Charles Schumer (D-N.Y.) also called the vote “a good outcome.”
“I am happy we are getting this done. With so many things happening here in Washington, the last thing the American people need is for the government to grind to a halt,” Schumer said.
Senate Democrats on Thursday rejected an effort by Republicans to limit the aid given to Afghan refugees who were evacuated, as well as a separate amendment on blocking Biden’s vaccination requirements.
Now the bill goes to the House of Representatives, which has until midnight to send it to President Biden’s desk before the close of the federal government’s fiscal year.
Shut it down! It’s all a scam anyway.
Having the federal government “grind to a halt” would be the best outcome we could hope for. These DC “elites” just can’t understand that they are the root of the ills of this great nation.
Shut the government down and stop payments to globalists and their puppets; demonrats and rinos and illegal criminal invader voters and libby snow flake sheep collecting welfare all their life .
Starting with Covid-19
The corrupt Federal Government needs to be more than just “Shut Down”, it needs to be completely overhauled. The Government we have today is a disgrace.
globalists use their voter fraud to appoint/reappoint their globalist puppets; demonrats and rinos .
The “Founding Fathers and the Constitutional Framers” would be beside themselves at what this bunch of scam artists in office do the American worker! They mess up move in one week that entire nation produces in a year.
Was there any doubt they wouldn’t let the government shut down,& possibly lose pay?
They only do what helps themselves.
The government employees, including Congress, never “lose” their pay. When the shutdown is over, they get all back pay that is owed to them. Believe me, they don’t live by the same rules the rest of us do.
Every time the government does anything, all that happens is things get worse! Close it down and take their pensions to replace a tiny portion of what they have stolen!
Take away all free college funding for children of congress and the senate, they make great money, they can pay for their kid’s education for a change.
Awaiting for approval
Shut down the shit show in d,c. U have a fake president and house of Representatives who don’t do a thing for Americans
That is the sole reason why globalists use all their forms of voter fraud to appoint/reappoint their globalist puppets .
AMERICA is the WORLD,S DEBTOR NATION SINCE 1987 34 STRAIGHT CONSECUTIVE YEARS. AMERICA was the WORLD,S CREDITOR NATION from 1945-1987 42 STRAIGHT CONSECUTIVE YEARS. AMERICA LOST ITS AAA RATING in AUGUST of 2011 and SAME at PRESENT SAME STATUS $31 TRILLION INTEREST OF THE DEBT PRINCIPAL DEBT FOR THE REPUBLIC IS $170 TRILLION DEBT. CONGRESS CAN NEGOTIATE DAMAGE CONTROL but that will NOT PREVENT THE COMING FINANCIAL COLLAPSE TRIGGERING A CATACLYSMIC SECOND GREAT DEPRESSION IT IS IMMINENT. CONGRESS HAS PASSED A WEALTH TRANSFER ACT ALONG WITH ITS CURRENT BAIL IN CONFISCATION OF AMERICANS BANK ACCOUNTS. TO MANY AMERICANS HAVE A FALSE SENSE OF SECURITY PERTAINING TO INDIVIDUALS RETIREMENTS INVESTMENTS AND BANK ACCOUNTS THERE WILL BE MANY ANGRY AMERICANS AND INCREASE IN SUICIDES BECAUSE OF THE UGLY TRUTH THAT IS RAPIDLY UNFOLDING BEFORE OUR EYES.
globalism .
And the sad part out loud, they do not care!!
It’s time our country started making it own money, and eliminating the money changers, our country could be out of debt in less than 5 years. Anyone remember the blue bill? Abraham Lincoln got this country out of debt by making this country own money. And stopped using borrowed make believe finances used by money changers and allowed by our government.
Now who ever though this would not happen? Not me said I. Wonder how much was shared under the table for them to do this? We in the real world have to live within our means……which means if we spend more money then we have they come after us. But politicians seem to not have to worry about that little fact. Just print more money and pass the payment on to our children and grandchildren and on an on. Dam one heck of a cleaning is needed in BOTH houses of our gov….should have been done yesterday.
This was a “FAILURE !!!!” Swamp Republicans caved. There is no courage in Washington DC. Conservatives have no leader in McConnell. The country gets the shaft again.
These people are all right. We’re all in a serious World of Shit! Please lord help us. Please rid us of this scourge that wants to dictate every move we make in life….
lord is too busy helping his globalists and all their puppet; demonrats and rinos and fbi CRIMINAL organisation and media and libby snow flake sheep and illegal criminal invader voters and taliban terrorists AND altar boy raping demonrat priests .
F globalists and their demonrats and their taliban terrorist voters ! Exchange 1 of their taliban terrorist voters with 100 of their libby snow flake sheep voters until the USA runs out of libby snow flake sheep voters !
Spineless so called Republicans never learn. China Mitch bent over once again for lying crying Chuckles to stick it up his ass
Routine and expected. It wouldn’t be necessary without bums like Pelosi and Schumer. Next up, 3.5 plus 1.5. Routine and expected. It wouldn’t be necessary…
Shut the government down, the way u spend money u don’t have, is pure insanity,who is going to pay for a debt, that is beyond paying back. All this crap the dumbocraps want, to spend is pure pork barrel spending that doesn’t help the americam people. Everything they want to spend on, in fact,screws the American tax payer more.
No matter who shuts the government down the republicans and the public will be the losers. The media will make sure that the republicans will get blame, so the democrats really don’t care one way or another if the government runs or not because it will be the republicans fault no matter how you look at it or spin it. The next losers will be the public. Nat Parks will shut down and anything that affects the public. The public will suffer and not one person in congress will be affected. When the government shut down congress goes on vacation because there is no work to be done.
Now what to do? Keep the audits up, and make the results public front page on every newspaper, and Podcast.
Then have electoral votes rescinded, in 2022 old man Biden cannot ever run again, not like he is up to it. 2022 change congress, have many devoted former military veterans run for office, claim House, and Senate! Hang in until 2024 and keep cheats out of the voting system, yes, that means you, Zuckerbug keep your criminal ass out of our elections, go live in China with the CCP. You already have family there.
Schumer with his tail between his legs, this is a group of losers trying to one up each other and they all fail when they try, it is embarrassing that these people are in charge of where our tax money is spent!
