The following Democrats [and one independent] voted to advance the Republican continuing resolution, which was backed by President Donald Trump:
- Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer
- Senator John Fetterman of Pennsylvania
- Senator Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada
- Senator Brian Schatz of Hawaii
- Senator Dick Durbin of Illinois
- Senator Kirsten Gillibrand of New York
- Senator Gary Peters of Michigan
- Senator Maggie Hassan of New Hampshire
- Senator Jeanne Shaheen of New Hampshire
- Senator Angus King of Maine, an independent who frequently caucuses with Democrats
I don’t care if it’s cloture or the actual bill itself…
There should be zero Dems voting “yes” on any-fucking-thing these MAGAt bastards want.
Blatant and complete obstruction is the only way to play this hand for the foreseeable future.
Those Dems that do vote yes… 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕 🖕
The cloture vote required 60 senators. That was the only chance for Democrats to stop this bill. He (and the others) then voted no, so they could say he voted against the bill, but they knew damn well that only in the cloture vote they actually could stop it.
Jeanne Shaheen already announced that she’s not running for reelection…and she STILL voted for the CR. Not to mention that 4 of the other Dems are from the bluest of states.
What fucking bullshit.
Dick Durbin always seems to find a way to be on the wrong side. I have no idea why he keeps getting reelected.
Doesn’t want to jeopardize her payday after her term ends.
Cowards. All of them need to go
But Fetterman just blasted the Dems for showing up at a fight with a casserole. How did he turn to then serving the casserole?
His brain is casserole after the stroke.
Hey that’s an insult to casserole
It’s interesting that no one in the media talks about how Fetterman was one of the most progressive politicians, then he had a stroke and started taking the maga side on a lot of things.
It tracks with a lot of other anecdotal evidence (e.g. Tila Tequila becoming a nazi after an aneurysm, some lady in a recent Channel 5 video said she became pro-Trump following a head injury in a car accident, a couple of people in my personal life, RFK Jr. obviously). I’m not saying all magas are brain damaged - there’s many different reasons I’m sure. But someone’s gotta at least start asking the question. There is at least this study which ties brain damage to religious fundamentalism, which isn’t exactly politics but it’s pretty darn close.
Yes, let’s not forget the country has been taken over by religious zealots who believe in the rapture among other things.
Ironically we are the ones who are cooked
This is why we need a real party of the left rather than fascists and fascist-lites. Because when push comes to shove the fascist-lites will always side with the fascists and betray the common man
When party stops representing the people it is time for the people to begin representing themselves.
Most of these Senators have a net worth of tens or hundreds of millions of dollars. They love Trump. He is cutting their taxes. (but not yours)
If you believe the Democratic leadership is truly against the Republican agenda, you are being duped. It’s all kayfabe. They’re all rich and corrupt, and they all stand to gain from this.
Seems like he did it, because he has a very important book tour https://www.dailykos.com/stories/2025/3/14/2310308/-Schumer-s-Book-Tour
And fighting for us would mess up his schedule.
Do you have any info on these traitors stopping in Illinois? I’d like to pay them a visit.
It is just Schumer and this list looks better (sorry for Reddit link):

I don’t see Illinois though
Fucking scumbags
Schumer, the fuck dude?
Collaborators will not be forgiven.
A terribly difficult choice. Not black or white at all.

If they wanted to shut down the government they could just not present any bill at all.
Now the changes they did are codified.
