The Senate unanimously moved to fund most of the Department of Homeland Security, except for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and part of Customs and Border Protection, in a rare overnight session.
The agreement would fund other DHS components, such as the Transportation Security Administration and US Coast Guard, but the House will still need to act before funded agencies within the department can reopen.
The move is meant to alleviate long lines at airports, while lawmakers continue to debate possible reforms to immigration enforcement by DHS.
How did they hold their ground? They gave up their only bargaining chip in exchange for absolutely nothing meaningful.
From what I’m hearing, MAGA is saying that, and they are fucking PISSED. They are in the exact position that Dems were in last Fall when the MAGA comedy act of Schmuck & Jeffries lost that game of chicken that they were easily winning. They knew if they screwed up again, they’d be hanging off a bridge over the Potomac.
Both of those losers still need to go ASAP.
