Another decision by a loser, lefty, libtard, activist judge, Edward Chen, (an odumdum appointee), gets shot down by the US Supreme Court.

Supreme Court allows Trump administration to end Venezuelans’ temporary status, again

Quote:
The Supreme Court on Friday granted the Trump administration’s request to end temporary legal protections the Biden administration extended for hundreds of thousands of Venezuelans.

It marks the second time the justices have intervened on their emergency docket to lift a ruling from U.S. District Judge Edward Chen keeping Temporary Protected Status (TPS) in place for some 600,000 Venezuelans.

There is a GOP President, a GOP majority House and a GOP majority Senate. If they can't put together a bill that will pass, that's on them.
.


I guess you were out sick the day they taught about how the US Senate works? Unless you have 60 senators, most bills can be blocked by the obstinate minority. Which is EXACTLY what the Democrat Senators are. The filibuster certainly was not meant to be a means to prevent a stopgap spending bill. You voted for those loser Democrat Senators. You get the day you voted for. Giving Trump free rein to control the purse strings with essentially no Congressional oversight. This bill was a ‘keep the government open’ bill with no strings attached. The Democrats are being petulant children. Plain for all to see. Let’s see how this shapes the Georgia Senatorial race!?!

If they want the Dem vote, they should put together a bill the Dems will vote for. If they don't want to put together a bill the Dems will vote for, then no bill will pass.


Something tells me this is not the position you had when the government got shut down under Obama when the Democrats had POTUS, House, and Senate.

Reality is the Democrats think that the GOP will get the blame so they are holding out for the most silly things just to try to make Trump look bad. Except Trump is not Bush. Trump is taking it right to them. They already have a couple defections. Democrat Senators know that next year ads will go up saying how they shut the government down over free health care for illegal aliens. And they will end up losing big time.

The Democrats think they run things when they run nothing. This is all about obstructing to obstruct.

Gotta agree with Duffy here. This is just plain bad strategy. Fetterman is the adult in the room amongst the Democrats. That’s why they hate him now!

Not only was I not out sick, I got extra credit for knowing about the one-time-per-session availability of the reconciliation process for certain bills.

No rule against it. All's fair in love and war.

And proudly so. Looking forward to reelecting Healey as governor in 2026, and possibly giving Seth Moulton a promotion from the House to the Senate, and reelecting Stephen Lynch.

Democrats are being Democrats and fighting for the little guy. I'm proud of them and hope they hold the line and hold fast. If Johnson, Thune and Donnie want a bill passed, they have Hakeem's and Chuck's number.

You see, this is precisely where I judge you unprincipled. When Donnie and Congress passed the rescission bill to reduce foreign aid, you said we should use that money here to help Americans. Now Democrats want to restore cuts to domestic aid programs. You know, the kinds of programs you think we should spend our foreign aid money on instead. But, not really. You don't want that money spent on domestic aid programs.

And that something would have told you wrong.

Since illegals aren't eligible for those programs, why are you spreading lies? And if the American voter believes those lies, then they deserve an America where their elected officials sell the country off for parts to Donnie, Elon, Barry Weiss, and all the other MAGA donor cronies. *That* is the true swamp.

Thank God for the modern Democratic party.

Shut down are good and Trump pushed for shutdowns under Obama saying Republicans should keep the government shutdown until Obama conceded. Democrats should do the same.

So Democrats, who are in the minority now because THATS HOW THE PEOPLE VOTED, should intentionally interfere with the workings of the government, in what will be a failed effort to get some health care funding restored?

And you wonder why the Democrats are held to lower esteem than NYC monster rats?

It’s thinking like yours that allowed the WORST CANDIDATE IN HISTORY to trounce your ‘eminently qualified’ candidate!

So, far Trump and Republicans are getting more blame for the shutdown than Democrats.

Sure, Jan. Is that from the same poll that had Clinton over Trump? And Harris over Trump?

The American people are stupid, but not THAT stupid. This one is crystal clear. The Republicans continue to put forth ‘clean’ funding bills. The Democrats keep voting against them. Heck, they even admit they are doing so in the effort to keep the healthcare funding they want. They are CLEAR they are willing to shut down the government to add what the minority wants and the majority doesn’t.

Sorry Rx. This one is squarely on the Democrats. It’s really hard to argue otherwise.
