If there's money for a wall, it's DOA
Tying disaster aid to a bill for the wall as a negotiating ploy is not only disgusting, it's an indirect admission that they know Democrats care more about human suffering & helping those in need than Republicans do. Very simply, they don't give a ship.

Mitch senatemajldr , not negotiating with anyone cruelly holding massive numbers of hostages is hardly a radical position. Adding 'sweeteners' of things that should have been independently passed in any event only adds insult to injury. Get a f***ing clue. OpenTheDamnGovernment
Until you start paying the federal employees vote no. Ending this shutdown now. TrumpMcConnellShutdown
R.I.P GOP
So the walking dead has emerged to allow legislation approved by Fox News to be voted on by our illustrious Senate. Sad to see the Senate degrade itself—again.
The old price-creep trick! For a few dollars more you can get it with fries.
The anti-deficit party has morphed into the biggest spenders and lowered taxes on the rich. Look out middle class America as this money has to be found somewhere and the US already has borrred too much from the Chinese; middle class to pay again.
WOW.. THEY HAVE BILLIONS TO SPEND.. WHY TF ARE WE IN SHUTDOWN..? GTFOH!! THE GOV. MUST BE PRIVATELY FUNDED.. TAXES SWALLOWED!! YA COULD HAVE YOUR STUPID 'WALL' OR FENCE.. QUIT PLAYING US.. AMERICANS WILL LEARN SOON.. DONT THINK THESE KIDS ARE STUPID!! ;)
NO!!!
You can put glitter on dog shit, but all you get is shiny dog shit.
My vote is the same, don’t agree to anything until the government is open
Why aren't they using that money they pulled out of their ass to build the stupid wall then?
SenMajLdr Needs to OPEN the government and do his job and realize that he works for the people not his puppet master, djt who has a Putin puppet master.
The GOP will lose all power for decades.
How is that a bargaining chip? If there is 12.7 billion available for disaster relief. These assholes better use it.
Hmmm, doubt the obstructionist Schumer and Pelosi will see this as a positive as they work to destroy the US citizens with their shutdown.
Gee whiz...
Who is paying for all of this and where is the money coming from? The GOP Is anything but fiscally responsible! Hannity MAGA
Why aren't Nancy & Chucking working to end the partial government shut down? is it because they're on the payroll of the Mexican drug cartels?
At this rate there won't be Republicans in any branch of the government for the next decade, what a fantastic way to ruin public perception.
👍👍👍 Hopefully obstructionist Democrats will accept this deal so the partial Govt shutdown will end
He thinks we would take his disaster money at the expense of asylum seekers? He must think we are as morally bankrupt as he is.

Senate GOP leader rips Rep. King over white supremacy remarkSenate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell on Monday denounced Rep. Steve King over his latest remarks on white supremacy, saying, 'There is no place in the Republican Party, the Congress or the country for an ideology of racial supremacy of any kind.' McConnell is the highest-ranking... Romney should try to primary Trump. In today’s GOP, you can give racist dog whistles. But do not be explicit. I am glad there are some morals left in the GOP. This is better than none. 'Now, I love being home in this place where Ann and I were raised, where both of us were born. Ann was born at Henry Ford Hospital, I was born at Harper Hospital. No one's ever asked to see my birth certificate. They know that this is the place that we were born and raised.'

GOP senator: Trump’s ‘straw man proposal’ not meant to become lawOklahoma‘s James Lankford says the proposal was meant to launch a constructive debate. So much winning. 😞 Trump needs to get over his tantrum and reopen the government now. We get it. Like a con, from a con man Much of the American public seems to have forgotten that the government shutdown started on December 22 when Republicans controlled both houses of Congress and Paul Ryan was Speaker of the House...

Barr confirmation hearing: Trump’s attorney general nominee likely to face tough questioning today from Senate panelWilliam P. Barr is set to appear before the Senate Judiciary Committee. In written testimony, he has pledged to allow special counsel Robert S. Mueller III finish his investigation into Russian election interference. He Prayed, He Hung, He Died, He Bleed, He Rose, and He Lives For all of Us! This will be the first confirmation hearing since the Kavanaugh debacle so I'm sure the Democrats have a lot of pent-up wacky emotional feelings they want to unleash.
