The "on X" should be omitted from this headline and should read:
Democrats must be the dumbest group PERIOD.
BUT THE REPUBLICANS CONTROL ALL THREE BRANCHES!!!! [in this tone]
Edit: I also see "Congress and Senate" all the time in the comments. Or, "Speaker Johnson should stop criticizing the Democrats and end the shutdown," under the belief that Johnson controls both House and Senate.
Why does this bill require 60 votes instead of 51?
Call me stupid if you like, but please don't call me a Democrat. Serious question.
Understanding the 60-Vote Requirement for the Clean Continuing Resolution Senate Rules and Filibuster The U.S. Senate operates under specific rules that require most legislation to achieve a supermajority to advance. A clean Continuing Resolution (CR) needs 60 votes to overcome a filibuster, which is a tactic used by senators to delay or block legislative action. Purpose of the 60-Vote Threshold The 60-vote requirement is designed to encourage bipartisan support for legislation. It ensures that a significant majority of senators agree on a bill before it can proceed to a vote, promoting collaboration across party lines. Current Context In the case of the clean CR, the House passed the bill, but it faces challenges in the Senate due to the need for 60 votes. With only 53 Republican senators, bipartisan support is essential to pass the CR and avoid a government shutdown. I pulled this from Search Assitant on Duck Duck Go. If incorrect please someone let me know.,
Thanks!
You are welcome.
But they would say its our fault for not coming to the table to add healthcare for illegals. They really are fucking stupid.
