Now try not to fuck it up.

Welcome to the discussion of US Politics!
Rules:
- Post only links to articles, Title must fairly describe link contents. If your title differs from the site’s, it should only be to add context or be more descriptive. Do not post entire articles in the body or in the comments.
Links must be to the original source, not an aggregator like Google Amp, MSN, or Yahoo.
Example:
- Articles must be relevant to politics. Links must be to quality and original content. Articles should be worth reading. Clickbait, stub articles, and rehosted or stolen content are not allowed. Check your source for Reliability and Bias here.
- Be civil, No violations of TOS. It’s OK to say the subject of an article is behaving like a (pejorative, pejorative). It’s NOT OK to say another USER is (pejorative). Strong language is fine, just not directed at other members. Engage in good-faith and with respect! This includes accusing another user of being a bot or paid actor. Trolling is uncivil and is grounds for removal and/or a community ban.
- No memes, trolling, or low-effort comments. Reposts, misinformation, off-topic, trolling, or offensive. Similarly, if you see posts along these lines, do not engage. Report them, block them, and live a happier life than they do. We see too many slapfights that boil down to "Mom! He's bugging me!" and "I'm not touching you!" Going forward, slapfights will result in removed comments and temp bans to cool off.
- Vote based on comment quality, not agreement. This community aims to foster discussion; please reward people for putting effort into articulating their viewpoint, even if you disagree with it.
- No hate speech, slurs, celebrating death, advocating violence, or abusive language. This will result in a ban. Usernames containing racist, or inappropriate slurs will be banned without warning
We ask that the users report any comment or post that violate the rules, to use critical thinking when reading, posting or commenting. Users that post off-topic spam, advocate violence, have multiple comments or posts removed, weaponize reports or violate the code of conduct will be banned.
All posts and comments will be reviewed on a case-by-case basis. This means that some content that violates the rules may be allowed, while other content that does not violate the rules may be removed. The moderators retain the right to remove any content and ban users.
That's all the rules!

It sounds to me like they didn't get nearly what they wanted. None of the restrictions or guardrails on ICE or border patrols were even considered and ICE is already funded for a good long while without this.
I guess at this point my bar is so low I was expecting an ice or border patrol funding anyway.
So I dunno man I just want my hollow victory.
Yey! Here's to y'all who like me are poorly informed citizen bystanders! We won! We wanted to win n we won! Yey! We're winners!
Just let me know how hollow? Too much so far? A couple of YMCA dance moves perhaps? A little hurra hoop hoop?
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.
"unanimously"
The vote was held at 02:20...
Considering the age of the average senator, I really want to see the actual votes and how many were even there.
house repbulicans blocked it already.
Sweet a manufactured solution to a manufactured crisis from a manufactured solution to a former manufactured crisis
