Wasn't it just 2-3 yrs ago when Sen. Manuchin demanded $$ from Biden for this very issue or he'd refuse sign off on the budget?

If you want to know who Republicans really are, just watch what they do when they get absolute power.
In North Carolina, one Democrat’s betrayal gave them a veto-proof supermajority.
So what did they do with it?
Not a damn thing to help anyone. #Voices4Victory #DemVoice1 #USDemocracy #ProudBlue

The Republican bill is incredibly unpopular. It would hurt millions & give tax cuts to billionaires.
Make the politics SO toxic that Republicans have to rework the budget framework completely. Protest! Resist! Join together to fight back!

Let's show up. Let's organize. Let's win.

It appears as if this story is void of 1 fact. 1. Are these ballots Pa residence in the military, deployed overseas?

Because the UOCAVA is a Fed and state law that protects absentee voting.

47's-GOP bill is dirty. Their CR and GOP appropriations website is dirty. The GOP have problems that are intricately connected to the notion of a representative democracy. They've forgot this is our govt, regardless of minority-majority positions. Time their reminded.

Carol @1961carol.bsky.social · 1d

Democracy doesn't mean much if you are hungry or homeless or have no health care or your children can't go to school; even if you have a vote, democracy is not effective. We ousted the 1st KING and if @repmikejohnson.bsky.social & 47 think the ppl won't, then we will show, better than we speak.

The Democrat Counterfeit Resolution: A $1.5 Trillion Ransom Note to Taxpayers

Washington, D.C. – Democrats are gambling with a shutdown and misleading the public by calling their $1.5 trillion spending spree a “clean” counter proposal. It is nothing more than a dirty, Counterfeit Resolution that crams in partisan policy and extraneous provisions, while pushing the nation closer to crisis and risking FY26 appropriations progress. The American people deserve to know what is in this partisan grab bag.

These Christian European invaders (1492-1620) came to this sovereign land, fleeing their own oppressor, only to inflict the same upon non-white people, by defaming them as savages for the purpose of claiming-possess their land, and desecrating their autonomy of self-governance and sovereignty.

The fact that these suits we've hired, can lie and gaslight so effortlessly should tell us all it is time we stop allowing them to destroy our govt. We can't continue this lawless abuse of power, or financial heist. They're in full chest in our face bonified criminal enterprise created by 47.
