Update: Johnson just killed the 3 separate bills plan.
GP:
In a last-ditch effort to prevent a government shutdown, House Speaker Mike Johnson (R., La.) and Republican leaders are advancing a new strategy involving three separate bills.
This move comes after previous Schumer-Johnson and Trump-endorsed proposals failed to secure sufficient support.
According to FOX News host Harris Faulkner, Republicans are working on Plan C to avoid a government shutdown.
The proposed plan divides the spending package into three distinct components:
Shut it down for goodness sake….
If the Leftists and RINOS try to add PORK to these 3 separate bare bones bills just pull them back until they are willing to pass them as they stand,
Johnson’s on his way out anyway. But they’re going to have to rope him, blindfold him, and leave him on an island – because he’ll try to find his way back. 🤣
I make a pretty decent living manufacturing parts for the military. I could use some time off. I’m tired. Shut it down.
Johnson’s not worried he’s already signed a contract to be the next Wally Cox..https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=E-4p4WwoZss
We are only several years from receivership.
One should take these close calls as fair warnings.
The Libtards Dems are going to shut it down. That’s probably why someone had to remind Brain Dead Biden and Kami that they were still in fact Pres and VP. And why they decided to stop working from home. This won’t look so good for Biden’s “Legacy”.
The Libtard Dems are under estimating the impact of Elon and Twitter. He’s killing them.
^ and I should remember to key in my name
If they shut it down Biden will be unable to add any more regulations into the Federal Register. He’s already on a pace to beat Obama’s record of adding to it per American Thinker.
“We are only several years from receivership. ”
Do yourself a favor and look up who holds that debt. There’s much more danger of a monitory collapse than getting your wife and kids repossessed.
I’m all in for plan D….none of the above.
They are debating the new bill right now, apparently will vote in a few minutes. They added just a little (well in number of pages) to the last one. Probably a lot more of our dollars.
And the noise is that the Dems are on board, which is crucial because it requires 2/3 aye votes. Of course my thinking is that if Dems will vote for it then I don’t want anything to do with it.
Here is the livestream, I recommend volume off: https://live.house.gov/?date=2024-12-20
The only people speaking are in favor of course. Not many actually present, I am sure each already knows how he/she will vote. I expect they will all show up at the appointed time to cast their vote.
They are voting right now, ends at 5:50 EST. Link above.
It passed easily. As usual, every single Dem voted the same way while a few Republicans voted against.
Any chance the Senate will make it difficult?
