BOHICA: It's Congressional budget time

It's deja vu all over again. A 2300 page bill with 24 hours to read and pass it. Or else the government will shut down. As if that is a bad thing.


Mark Meadows @RepMarkMeadows
- Record spending levels
- No wall/border security
- Obamacare intact
- Funds Planned Parenthood
- Sanctuary Cities funded
- Barely 24 hours to read a 2,300 page bill

This Omnibus is so far from what the forgotten men and women of America voted for. I will oppose it.

When you can't afford a prostitute,

VOTE REPUBLICAN.


No one left unscrewed as long as there is a GOP.


What a worthless bunch of losers.

A preliminary procedural vote was needed before the House could actually vote on the budget bill. Ryan needed help from Democrats to bring the bill to the floor.

Quote:
The procedural vote passed 211-207. Only 25 House Republicans had enough spine to stand up to leadership and vote no.
The actual vote on the bill was 256-157, with 90 Republicans voting against it.
