Typical villify the squad as usual.
The squad are loved by America’s enemies.
@Fraudster Biden-Dickknuckle Except this time they agree with conservatives about taking the fence down and sending the troops back.
If the shoe fits.
👍!!
Hopefully this will make it through the Senate 😁👍it’s a start.
We r watching senators…Make this happen,make this right!
@Danger Close i bet your used to hear that your whole life huh beta boy
@Another Mortal he’s a s!mp for TR45H
@Another Mortal lol! You mad bro?
@Sarah F. 4.1 not a Trumper lol!!!! Congratulations foreigner
And we are only watching you on msm…clearly and focused
Kevin McQarthy and the insurrectionists GOP are against democracy
Of course they’re against democracy. They’re spineless and brainless Trump front men.
He is definitely an insurrectionist but not republican
@1776 SAR SUSAN CONSTANT Well, yeah unfortunately he is.
There’s only truth and they got to stop being like kids and telling the truth 🧐🧐⚖️⚖️
Kids are better than that.
Manchin, Sinema, if you vote No on this bill, we can’t be held responsible for what we’re about to say to you.
Oooooh ….a stern talking-to! That’ll show them!
Can’t Republicans vote for anything? I am sick of them being so negative on EVERYTHING, and it has only been 5 months!
The leader of their party Mr. Turtle said his SOLE goal is to block the Dems from doing anything, and passing any bills. (and you know he’s good at it because he said, and successfully did, the same thing when it came to Obama’s nomination of Supreme Court Justice Merrik Garland, and much more from the Obama era)
So no, they really can’t vote for anything. But at the exact same time they scream for bi-partisanship. They’re a satirization of themselves at this point
Yeah — 5 months of a Dem majority. And they STILL can’t get anything done. No $15 minimum wage
5 months? They had been the party of do nothing or obstruction since 2010
@Harvey Manfredsenjenson You need 60 votes in the senate for that 1 and the republicans are not on board. 50/50 split is just not gonna cut it
Of course Republicans voted against supplementing Capitol security. They’re have zero respect for Capitol law enforcement.
They apparently thinking that beating up Capitol police officers is “typical tourist behavior”
@Jock Young Pretty disrespectful, right?
You win Bozo Post of the Day
@Harvey Manfredsenjenson Trump lost. Get over it. Womp womp.
@Harvey Manfredsenjenson Hate to tell you but Trump lost. By eight million votes.
get it done, don’t let the nay sayers slow you down
SHOW THEM how to get the job done.
They can’t even get $15 minimum wage done
As somebody who was massively in favor of the Jan 6th commission, I am actually against this bill. Weirdly enough, I agree that whenever there is an issue, we tend to just throw money at it hoping that the problems get fixed. It’s not the money that I’m against, but I just dont feel the bill is in-depth enough. I wish they would have waited until findings about Jan 6th are complete so they could really go after the root of the problems.
We have to protect people now. We can retool this act later.
@Sarah F. 4.1 We now have a competent president who will actually call in the national guard in case of an emergency. I dont think throwing more money at the problem, without properly addressing the root of the issues, will make the Capitol much safer than it is.
@Joey Fletcher I can see your point. I live in D.C. and want to see everything possible done to deal with this, however, and feel comfortable that this bill will help. Have a good day.
Congratulations, you are outside the sheeple fence. That is huge !
@1776 SAR SUSAN CONSTANT Q is a lie.
To apply what the GQP is saying about the AZ “audit”…. “Hey republicans! What are you afraid of them finding??” 😂🤣
$1.9 billion is alot of money for signs at the Capitol stating ‘Lethal force may be used by Police’
Ultimate deterrent.
Stop acting ignorant. You know better than this.
Defund the “GOV” !!!!!!!
$1.9bn is $6 per citizen. Total non-issue.
_”$1.9 B, oh no!_
_That’s ¼% of the defense budget!_
_How will we ever afford it?!”_
The republican party turned my brother into a nut case. Practically have to do a drug like intervention just to pull him out of the Qnmoron cult. Thanks republican party.
Mike Pence own brother voted against it.
Keep the life support on our even most remote honest government, we are dying
WOLVES GUARDING THE HEN HOUSE.
