Chill out everyone. They’re buying time to negotiate so this doesn’t become a massive shit show and so there is a compromise.
If nothing happens on the 22nd, let’s panic then. In the meantime, brace yourself for some noise from news channels/ good and bad. Call your people, have your friends call and keep fighting.
I have a good feeling about this.

Because it's an election year... Politicians are scared to make moves.

GOP won't give BRIDGE Act for nothing, and Dems aren't going to agree to massive border security for BRIDGE Act. If nothing passes end of the year, I think there's a very low chance of anything passing. Look how GOP is robbing Americans (voters), they don't care about us.

Some articles mention that they want another CR until Mid-January so who knows. After all the hype, everything happened so fast today and Dems gave their votes, yes it was only a CR but still. Now the war begins till the 22nd but I'm skeptic of Dems fighting because they don't play dirty like the GOP, who wants to shut down a government over Christmas?

Bridge Act with unrestricted ability to travel, no Advanced Parole bullshit. Also they should negate the 10 year ban for us. This way most of us will be able to adjust legally somehow in the future.

But anyways, it's not time to give up yet. We still have a chance of DA passing. Nobody should give into the Bridge Act yet. Dems still have some leverage on the 22nd.

They were bluffing and went back on their word. Can someone post a list of Democratic yes votes from the Senate?

The fact is I think Nancy and Chuck fucked up when they canceled on Trump. That was the chance go in get a deal done get it signed today / tomorrow. Instead we will get a classic response. "We tried but we got nowhere, because Republicans are bad."

I simply don’t understand the Dems, they are so weak and have no organization, that’s why republicans are winning in everything! The had leverage and not using it, trying to save face and being PC. Fuck that shit, the real world isn’t nice! And they have to push. Progressive need to take over, or the world will be running by republicans.
