Senate rejects Trump's national emergency in 59-41 vote

Trump breaks his promise the Mexico will pay for the wall, with this action.

Does that make you happy Ron?

Steve, you was being gaslighted on that subject, that's all.

I think it makes you happy Ron, but it doesn't matter. It will be a big, beautiful wall.

Still Steve, the Republican Control Senet rejected Trump's request for the monies for that wall and that is something you can't REFUTE, now can you?

Remember Ron, it was the House and Senate democrats that opposed the President and kept the shutdown in force.

Still Steve, the Republican Control Senet rejected Trump's request for the monies for that wall and that is something you can't REFUTE, now can you?

There is no Republican Control Senet.

What do you mean?

As long as the Senate rules include the filibuster, neither party can control the Senate without holding at least 60 seats.

Hey Steve, you remember what Mitch McConnell did in 2017 don't you (that GOP member) went a step further by extending the ‘nuclear’ vote to include SCOTUS nominees in 2017 which gave the republicans rule over the filibuster.

What is the nuclear option

The nuclear option (or constitutional option) is a parliamentary procedure that allows the United States Senate to override a rule – specifically the 60-vote rule to close debate – by a simple majority of 51 votes, rather than the two-thirds supermajority normally required to amend the rules.

You do remember that don't you, Steve?

We're talking about the most important fuction of Congress, the budget.

Steve, where do you see any mention of the budget, in these words of yours:

"As long as the Senate rules include the filibuster, neither party can control the Senate without holding at least 60 seats."

Can you point that out to me and the people, here on Black In America, where is the talk about a budget in your LIE you told us Steve? WOW!!!

The budget is the topic of YOUR blog Ron. The National Emergency is a result of the Senate filibuster of the budget.
