Debt ceiling compromise clears the US Senate 63-36, Republican Senators extract pledge from Chucky Schumer for more defense spending which amounts to a pig in a poke so 31 vote against it anyway

Hello, all spending bills must originate in the House.

Some Senate Republicans are pretending you don't know that.

What a joke.

 CNBC:

Majority Leader Chuck Schumer spent much of the day Thursday hammering out an agreement with a group of Senate Republicans who demanded that he pledge to support a supplemental defense funding bill before they would agree to fast-track the debt ceiling bill.

The current House debt ceiling bill provided $886 billion in defense spending for fiscal year 2024, an increase of 3% year over year. That figure rose to $895 billion in 2025, an increase of 1%.

But GOP Sen. Susan Collins of Maine called this “woefully inadequate” Thursday, arguing that a 1% increase did not keep pace with inflation, so in practical terms, it was actually a decrease in military funding. The solution came in the form of a rare joint statement from Schumer and Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell, R-Ky., which was read on the floor.

“This debt ceiling deal does nothing to limit the Senate’s ability to appropriate emergency supplemental funds to ensure our military capabilities are sufficient to deter China, Russia and our other adversaries and respond to ongoing and growing national security threats,” Schumer read. “Nor does this debt ceiling limit the Senate’s ability to appropriate emergency supplemental funds and respond to various national issues, such as disaster relief, combating the fentanyl crisis or other issues of national importance,” said Schumer.

The Hill:

The normally slow-moving chamber raced through a dozen votes in just over three hours. ...

A total of 31 Republicans voted against the measure ...

Just four Democrats voted against the measure: Sens. John Fetterman (Pa.), Ed Markey (Mass.), Jeff Merkley (Ore.), Elizabeth Warren (Mass.), along with Bernie Sanders (I-Vt.). ...

The legislation would provide $886 billion for defense, which negotiators described as a 3 percent increase, and $637 billion for non-defense programs, according to a White House summary. ...

Senate Republican Whip John Thune (S.D.) said McCarthy didn’t sign off on the agreement between Senate leaders and defense-minded GOP senators. ...

Asked how confident he is about a defense supplemental spending bill passing later in the year, Thune said, “hard to say.” 

“It was important for some of our members have folks on the record acknowledging there clearly could be a need, will be a need for our national security interests,” he said.

Before Joe Biden came down with COVID-19, he was at Brayton Point Power Station in Massachusetts, where 1530 MW of electricity used to be produced from cheap, plentiful coal

 Torn down starting in 2019, the former coal power plant will become a hub for just 804 MW of offshore wind energy, 52% of what used to come from that location.

Biden was accompanied by the usual suspects.

More.

Democrat Senator Crockagawea Warren's solution to the Supreme Court's so-called "lost legitimacy" is to pack it and make it even more illegitimate

 It's always helpful to see the lunacy of Democrats put on public display by themselves while at the same time providing the people with further evidence of their complete disloyalty to America and its institutions:

This court has lost legitimacy. They have burned whatever legitimacy they may still have had after their gun decision, after their voting decision, after their union decision. They just took the last of it and set a torch to it with the Roe v. Wade opinion. I believe we need to get some confidence back in our court, and that means we need more justices on the United States Supreme Court.

Remember, 1 year ago California Democrats preferred Pocahonky for president over their own Senator Kamala Harris by 3 to 1

 

Which is why Kamala dropped out on Dec 3, just days after this poll was released.

Pennsylvania Democrats aren't stupid, the ones paying attention believe Biden +8, Klobuchar +7 and Bloomie +6 are better than anti-fracking Comrades Butt, Pocahonky and Bernie

Pennsylvania kinda slow on the uptake about Comrade Butt +4, however, who hides his anti-fracking unlike Bernie +2.6 and Pocahonky +3, who both would end it and plunge America into deep energy trouble.

Pro-life Democrat Dan Lipinski of Illinois is opposed by both Pocahonky and Bernie in the primary March 17th

The left is trying again to root out every last thing which offends in their party.

There it is again: Pocahonky say "I grew up fighting"

Trail of tears.

Pocahonky on warpath against everybody on stage

Trail of tears.

Democrats forced Obamacare on the country and Pocahonky says Americans are suffering

How would any of these people do anything different?

Democrats are supposed to be about choice, but are not.
