Their reasons, whatever they be and however unworthy I may find them, are likely unchanged. RockRaven Jan 2026 #1

So they probably feel just as they did the day they cast that vote. Until their personal interests are impinged upon, they will not change.

To understand what the Bill actually does and does not do. The funding was set in the Big bullshit bill, was only additional funding that was tied to other services we need to keep funded, a poison pill if you will. These are put into legislation such that it must pass or worse things will happen, that's what the vote you are referencing was.

Stop defiling Democrats with partial info, please. You are playing into the divide and conquer program.

Just useless. The sight of Schumer disgusts me almost as much as Tramp. They will never stand up. Polls and focus groups and consultants and triangulation.
