FOX:
Sen. Lindsey Graham, R-S.C. condemned the Democratic spending package and said during an exclusive interview on Fox News’ “Sunday Morning Futures” that, if needed, he will follow the lead of the Texas House Democrats who fled their home state in an effort to kill GOP-backed voting legislation.
“Hell yeah, I would leave,” Graham told host Maria Bartiromo. “I would use everything lawfully in my toolbox to prevent rampant inflation.”
The Republican senator made the comments five days after Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer announced that the Budget Committee had reached an agreement to allot $3.5 trillion for a spending package that would complete President Biden’s infrastructure plan.
The plan will fund a budget reconciliation package so that Democratic lawmakers can sidestep the need for GOP support and shield the funds from a filibuster. more
If Lindsey could just decide who’s side he’s actually on. Maybe he’s just on his side.
Isn’t it more effective to vote against it? Maybe he would vote for it and just doesn’t want anyone to know that.
All he wants is his name in the news.
I’m reconsidering the lifestyle of an expat. This no longer looks like America to me.
Because two wrongs make right?
Destroy the quorum all by himself. I don’t think so.
I’ve never heard of a quorum for the United States Congress. And if there is such a thing, the democrats will just ignore it and hold a vote without your input, you putz!
There are no Republicans.
DW,
Quorum requirement for US Senate.

Routinely, a Senator will suggest the absence of a quorum and the clerk initiates a roll call.
I am weary of Graham and his little quips.
Graham is a useless asshole. And that’s when he’s on OUR side.
