Only one House Dem voted yes on it (Jared Golden of Maine). So it passed 217-213 because R’s have the majority and one of them defected as well. So House Dems are holding together pretty well, but as long as the R’s also hold together there’s nothing they can do to stop them.
Only the Senate D’s could have stopped the bill, by voting against cloture (even though Dems are in the minority, cloture requires 60 votes). But not only Schumer but 9 other quislings (8 D’s and 1 I) voted with the fascists. List of them here. But Schumer is Leader so if he had taken a stand against it, probably some of those other 9 would have followed his lead and it could have been stopped.
It’s still good for the House Dems to be doing this, though, calling attention to the problem so more people will call their Dem senators demanding that they take action as well.
Good question. I’ve been drinking Earl Grey for so long I don’t remember which came first, that or STTNG. It’s possible I first tried it because of the show.
Seize all his assets and put them into funds for universal health care, social security, WIC, etc. Then not to be cruel, provide him with food and shelter like you would any living creature; however to get to the food each day, he has to walk down a street that is lined with people who can jeer, boo, spit and laugh at him (but fenced off so not allowed to do any violence), and daily footage is streamed online for viewing by those unable to attend.
