They need to hold the baby tight and not let it slip. Someone better be fucking whipping the no’s and making them fucking stick that way

Senator Ron Johnson from Wisconsin is such an asshole.

Dems are being ripped apart by all the spin. Hopefully, they stay firm.

Shutdown talk by President Trump & congressional Rs is foolish. If there's a shutdown, it's because Rs won't work weekends! We need to stay and finish budget negotiations to protect defense, education, health, Dreamers. We can do this in a matter of days. @TimKaine

Actually , they are not. What do you expect the republicans to say?

It brings great joy knowing the likes of McTurtle are probably stressed, breaking a cold sweat, and being overall miserable right now. Enjoy the feeling asshole, know what anxiety feels like for us.

Let me bask in it...

Fake news. A shutdown is very unlikely, corporate democrats fight for their donors not the people.

Time to see if Democrats can do what they say... empty promises? - we learn our fate in next 24-72 hours. We either get our GC printing or we get one way ticket

In case there are any questions about it, senior Democratic aide says Senate Democrats still intend to block the CR despite the House looking like it has the votes to advance it. @JoePWilliams31

They can vote tomorrow, but the votes aren't there. I heard on CNN, the GOP have no idea what to do now that they don't have the votes in the Senate.

Freedom Caucus Chair Meadows on if they'll have to renegotiate on the interim spending bill if the CR fails in the Senate: "That's entirely possible."

I hope Senate votes tonight, too. Waiting till tomorrow I wont be able to sleep . lol

Bet you 20 bucks that the GOP decided that if they pass it in the house, and it doesn't pass the senate, they could shift the blame on Democrats. If they fail to even pass the House, where they hold a considerable majority, there is no where to point the finger.

A bipartisan DACA and border security bill has interest from the White House, Nancy Pelosi, and key members of Congress

This is gonna pass house.. there have 211 with 19 republicans having not voted yet.

Ok...they got to 218. Real battle begins in the Senate.

Not really. Last time around the Freedom Caucus was being a cunt but they voted for it anyway. It was expected that they would do the same this time.

Well they actually understand how to use leverage.

McCain says, essentially, if he were here to vote he'd vote "no" on the House spending bill

I wonder when he's coming back :(

They told him it's either the 1 month deal by Republicans, or 5 day deal by democrats which would put pressure right before the STOU causing more problems.

@MEPFuller

Mark Meadows says the deal is they’ll vote in the next 10 days on breaking the spending caps with a defense-only funding bill and a commitment to vote on a conservative immigration bill, meaning the Goodlatte DACA bill.

White House probably trying to fool us just to buy more time. Can never trust them with anything.
