Members of the Congressional Black Caucus have condemned the House-passed spending bill and vowed to vote against it when it comes up in the Senate, even as other Democrats say they’ll support it to avert a government shutdown.

All four Black Democratic senators said they will vote against the continuing resolution.

    The continuing resolution had to be approved by the house before it went to the Senate. Hakeem Jeffries was certainly involved.

    I’ve never been more disappointed in all my life

    Except for when I learned it that both of my parents were malignant, narcissist and neurologically, incapable of perceiving the concept of “love”, but at least they had the good sense not to run for public office.

    You may call that bias, I just say that it’s further motivation to support a pluralistic and equitable democracy

      Yes, he was involved in organizing all but one of the Democratic caucus members to vote against it. And the one vote they lost wasn’t the difference in it passing. That was pretty close to the maximal amount of opposition for the thing you’re pretending to be angry about.

      I’m assuming that you’re trying to do some kind of bit, but it’s too confused a character to actually have an underlying statement or joke.
