OK.

Here’s where I show my stupidity but I don’t mind because I will be that much less stupid when I know the answer :)

I thought ALL bills originated in the house?

[Sheapdog]

I don’t see how any of this matters unless the vote fraud is dealt with. Motor votor and now the felon voting in FLorida. Seems that everything is just a crumbs on the floor and distractions until the Democrats and Republican lackeys can get back to their destructive agenda of techno feudal enslavement full throttle.

All taxation bills must start there. That’s why the house had to vote the exact Obamacare bill to make it lawful to pass

[dp0622]

Those are the ONLY bills that must start there?

Thanks for the reply.

It’s kind of very good news to someone like me who thought we could not originate a bill now.

If dems kill something the senate sends that the people want, and they will, it will be ammunition at election time.

OF COURSE I’d rather have what we need done.

But a killed bill will at least be useful for something.

Could have done a lot of things the last two years.

But the House and Senate would rather huff and puff against Trump.

Too late now.

Republicans in the House are in the minority where I think they’d rather be.

Look for them to be agitating to be placed back in the majority and what they could do. Lies, all lies.

[9YearLurker]

All spending bills too, IIRC?

[butlerweave]

Celebrate the loss and hope it hurts Trump ?

[central_va]

It’s going to be investigation on investigation which will ironically drive UP Trump’s approval rating.

[Buckeye McFrog]

so.....two more years of passing show bills on to the House to score cheap political points on things the Republicans would not pass when they had the ability to do so, all while the country circles the drain.

Swell.

[trebb]

Did a quick search and found that “Theoretically, any bill can start in either of the Houses of the Congress - tax/spending bills need to be sent to the House because they control the purse strings...but if the House starts a Bill, the Senate reviews/amends it and sends it back so they play ping-pong until all the compromises (torts against the People) have been manufactured....or sumpin’ like dat.

[Starboard]

We’re at war and congressional Republicans need to start acting like it.

******************

No, they think they’re at the country club.

Republicans are now right back where they feel comfortable. They are followers, not leaders.

[Alberta's Child]

This slop must be some kind of joke. This guy wants the GOP to vote on bills that have no chance of being passed — after failing to do this for the last two years when they WOULD HAVE passed?

[dp0622]

Thanks!

I’m sure somehow we get screwed in the end :)

[phothus]

Agree on the vote fraud. If we don’t get to this now, we may never win another election.

For the Senate

- Judges, Judges, Judges
- Force through what they can in reconciliation
- block all the idiocy that they House is sure to send along
- Investigate the FISA, Russiagate scandal (or at least let Whitaker do his job)

[dp0622]

Great quote at your home page and thank you for your service.

[trebb]

Yep - the only absolutes are death, taxes, and the People getting screwed by their “representatives”....
Hope your Thanksgiving is a good one...

[dp0622]

lol

Thanks.

You too.
