House Republicans on Tuesday advanced four full-year spending bills, handing Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-CA) a small win but doing little to stave off a government shutdown at the end of the month,” The Hill reports.
“The chamber voted 216-212 to begin consideration of spending measures to fund the Department of Defense; Department of Homeland Security; Department of State and foreign operations; and the Department of Agriculture, rural development and Food and Drug Administration.”
“Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was the lone GOP ‘no’ vote.”
“Rep. Marjorie Taylor Greene (R-GA) was the lone GOP ‘no’ vote.”
Thought she wasn’t a member of the “burn it all down party” anymore?
Not a member in name, but still “burn it all down” in spirit.
She’s taken Rohrabacher’s spot on Putin’s payroll. Right, Kevin?
Honestly, she’s so dumb she might be doing it for free.
I was just thinking earlier that there are two groups in congress that are advancing Russia’s agenda. The ones actively working and following Russia’s plan and the fucking idiots who have no idea what they are doing. I also think Greene falls in the fucking idiot category.
Greene spoke out against the aid for Ukraine following the vote. “I just voted NO to advance Ukraine funding bills. After tonight, we will find out who is actually against sending YOUR money to Ukraine. No more stump speeches. No more red meat. No more chest thumping in letters,” Greene wrote in a post on X.
What a piece of shit she is. You republiQans in Georgia really shat the bed good with this one. “Grow a brain, morans.”
They want to shut down the government so they can attack it again.
Thats what the con-artist Republicans want.
This is the best summary I could come up with:
House Republicans on Tuesday advanced four full-year spending bills, handing Speaker Kevin McCarthy (R-Calif.) a small win but doing little to stave off a government shutdown at the end of the month.
Her opposition did not come as a surprise: ahead of the vote, she said she was a “hard no” on the rule because two of the spending bills include funding for Ukraine.
The successful procedural vote marks an incremental win for McCarthy, who has struggled to advance spending measures this month amid conservative opposition.
The House tried to advance the Department of Defense appropriations bill twice last week, with hardline opposition sinking the measure both times.
Leaders in both parties and chambers have recognized that a continuing resolution will be needed to keep the lights on in Washington beyond the Saturday deadline, but the path to clearing such a measure is unclear.
House GOP leaders are hopeful that moving the four appropriations bills will make some of those Republican holdouts more open to a continuing resolution.
The original article contains 480 words, the summary contains 168 words. Saved 65%. I’m a bot and I’m open source!
Needs some work. In the second paragraph, who’s opposition?
“Her opposition” = “The fact that she opposed the bill”
The summary doesn’t indicate who “she” is. The previous name to be dropped was Kevin McCarthy.
Yeah, I got that from reading the article, the summary doesn’t include that information. The summary also doesn’t indicate who the 'her’is referring to. I think the summary needs some work to get all of the pertinent information.
Ah, I got you. Sorry, I misunderstood the original comment.
No problem. Have a great day!
