    McConnell says bill passed by the House to reopen government is a "non-starter" w Senate Republicans. YOU ALL VOTED FOR IT UNANIMOUSLY TWO WEEKS AGO. YOU ALL VOTED FOR IT UNANIMOUSLY TWO WEEKS AGO. YOU ALL VOTED FOR IT UNANIMOUSLY TWO WEEKS AGO. YOU ALL... ah screw it

        McConnell refusing to allow his own bills up for a second vote is kind of McConnell in a nutshell. He's a pioneer in the field of "yes I am a hypocrite, wtf are you gonna do about it."

        Did I miss where we no longer can override a presidential veto? Why is it that if the legislation passed with 100 votes two weeks ago that we can't simply override? Isn't that what checks and balances are all about??????

        The issue isn't overcoming a veto, it's getting a vote in the first place. Same issue Dems had with the bipartisan immigration bill that passed the Senate: John Boehner refused to bring it up for a vote in the House.

        I agree with Amy, the only reason turtleman won't bring it to the floor is because donnie won't sign it, which is a bullshit excuse if both the house and senate agree on the language.

        It bothers me that mainstream media immediately began reporting their expectations that the Democratic House Majority should compromise. You cannot compromise with the Republicans. It's not about being obstructionist; it's that they refuse to negotiate.

        This is why compromise hasn’t worked for Dems(and especially the American people) since 1994. As long as private defense corps get paid, they dont care about government operating in any capacity whatsoever. Fun refresher on the Father of Modern Republicanshttps://www.theatlantic.com/magazine/archive/2018/11/newt-gingrich-says-youre-welcome/570832/ …

        And of of course our profit-driven corporate media(all of them) can’t just come out and say one party is trash. First - there has to be two sides to every story or else its not “objective.” 2nd - Republican policy benefits the owners/shareholders of CNN/MSNBC/ABC/etc.

        WHEN are the corporation owned news outlets on the left going to actually not let up on the truth? It is corruption at the highest level and none of this gets pounded in. Aka the millions Judge Kennedy‘s son gave to Trump foundation via his connection to Trump Junior at Yale?!!!!
