I expect tons of protests popping up all across the USA tomorrow.

This vote happened on a Sunday evening and many people are not aware of it right now. Tomorrow when Americans wake up and see what happened they will be flash mobbing protests in large and small cities. Be prepared to join them if you can.

If they did this cave in wouldn't have happened. I'm not buying the spin they caved to put an end to the suffering due to the shutdown. I think it's more likely their big donors got in their ear and said okay you had good election night, but the shutdown is hurting our bottom line so reopen the Government. Now the Trump administration is going to cause even more suffering. I predict before we even get to the 2026 midterms republicans will pass even more bills making even more cuts to medicare,medicaid,snap etc.

But my feelings about the "deal" are more mixed.
