US Senate early this am passed imperfect compomise funding bill to keep govt open, after GOP-led House finally passed bill only with Democratic support. Wouldn’t it be easier just to vote for adults? (ie Democrats.)

–

And the Senate late night did pass a bill -unanimously – that was originally stripped by Musk from the funding bill, to make it easier for the Washington Commanders to return to Washington DC at the RFK stadium site.

The late vote was called a Hail Mary. Now, it’s good for the city of Washington DC, but Roger Goodell and the NFL also really wanted the bill passed. I’m sure the fact that it’s a multi-billion dollar league with many billionaire owners had nothing to do with it…

Again, wonder how those who only get news from Fox are brainwashed? After House Democrats compromise, again, to keep govt open when GOP would’ve let shutdown happen… Faux News headline “Congress passes bill to stop partial government shutdown after missing midnight deadline.”

–

Every headline on stopgap government funding bill that passed today in House should include – it ONLY passed for 2 reasons: 1. Johnson refused Musk/Trump demands to eliminate debt ceiling. 2. Democrats voted to save Christmas & keep Government open. GOP didn’t back Musk/Trump.

–

The CR was basically a noncontroversial non-story -three months of negotiation with the usual complaints that it was coming down to the wire but all looked settled. Until President Musk decided to try to steal Christmas.

Elon Musk is reversing the Pottery Barn rule. For him it’s “You buy it, then you break it.

Good news. Bill to put a monument to women’s suffrage on the mall in Washington DC passes unanimously in the US Senate Wonder though how long it will take some GOP members of Congress to try to overturn the 19th amendment.

–

Schumer gave tribute to Mitch McConnell, who’s not leaving Senate but stepping down as Leader. Chuck said “all my colleagues on both sides of aisle join me in offering best wishes & respect.”. Uh, to man who singlehandedly destroyed our SCOTUS by stealing 2 seats? Hard pass.

Hey Germany.

1. Elon Musk is endorsing AfD far-right neo Nazi party in your elections. Everything else aside, take a look at the US near shutdown chaos right now that resulted from American voters listening to him last November. Learn from our mistake.

2. Fröhliche Weihnachten
