You feel better that trump will now have more unchallengable power to mess with your SS???? Think. Again. Friday #1

You don't think it's a good thing that Chuck has managed to secure Social Security for our time? Lancero Friday #3

Schumer has not done that... Think. Again. Friday #5

ONE Democratic vote for the CR makes the party "enablers and collaborators"? OilemFirchen Friday #17

And 10 for cloture. Think. Again. Friday #18

No one gives a shit about that. OilemFirchen Friday #21

It will definitely be used against Dems. Think. Again. Friday #22

Nope. OilemFirchen Friday #30

Members of our Party have voted with the repubs. Think. Again. Friday #34

2, counting Angus King, who caucuses with us. Shaheen was the other Yes on the actual bill, and she is retiring so Celerity Friday #24

King is not a member of the Democratic Party. OilemFirchen Friday #26

He caucuses with us (which I said). Without King/Sanders caucusing with us, we wouldn' have had control of the Senate Celerity Friday #31

And what would have happened if the government shut down? mcar Friday #20

It would not have stopped them, it would have stopped the Democratic Party... Think. Again. Friday #33

I think the joke went over your head... regnaD kciN Friday #27

It sounds like they feel better that dump will have less power than if a shutdown happened. Eko Friday #4

He will not have less power, the CR grants him power that even the Constitution reserved for Congress. Think. Again. Friday #6

And a shutdown will allow dump to decide what is essential and non-essential. Eko Friday #8

Which he could do anytime he wants to with an emergency declaration. Think. Again. Friday #10

An emergency declaration can let him shut down federal angencies? Eko Friday #11

Doesn't matter, he now has the full authority to do that through the CR, backed by Democratic Party votes. Think. Again. Friday #12

What you said is not true. Eko Friday #13

Ha! Yeah, get back to me when the agencies start closing down. Think. Again. Friday #15

Why dont you just show me where the CR allows dump to close down agencies? Eko Friday #16

By transferring Congress's Constitutional control of spending to trump, he can defund any agency he wants to. Think. Again. Friday #23

Here is where the CR says funds to SS continue. Eko Friday #25

Starting on page 14, line 4 Think. Again. Friday #32

Nice job! Eko Friday #35

Yes, over-riding the Congressional authority over spending is why the CR is considered unconstitutional. Think. Again. Friday #36

I 100% agree. Eko Friday #37

Without it's "discretionary" spending, the agency will not last long.... Think. Again. Friday #38

Once again I 100% agree. Eko Friday #39

Unfortunately, the option of a 30 day CR developed by the House was ignored by schumer, and so here we are. Think. Again. Friday #40

Yup. Eko Friday #41

The courts would side with trump per the CR unless and until the CR is successfully challenged first. Think. Again. Friday #42

I agree. Eko Friday #43

always grateful for the replies that show up as numbers instead of posts bigtree Friday #2

#7 bigtree Friday #9

The largest bank in NY city gab13by13 Friday #7

If the government shuts down, much of it might not reopen. nt Comrade Citizen Friday #14

Probably the same parts of it that trump will close with the power of the CR. Think. Again. Friday #19

The House was working on a 30 day CR gab13by13 Friday #29

Bahahahahahahaha! BannonsLiver Friday #28
