10 Dems Cross Line to Vote for Cloture: House Dems Tear at Hair in Frenzy

I kept looking for updates but missed it.

My absolute least-favorite subject to have to post about are these stupid CR battles.

So I'm glad this is out of the way.

Late Friday afternoon, the Senate voted yes on cloture 62-38, with 10 Democrats joining Republicans. That sets the bill up for passage on what will likely be a party-line vote after a few amendments are voted on.

Almost before Schumer's speech on the Senate floor ended Thursday, House Dems started hammering him, and that continued through the day Friday, with former Speaker Nancy Pelosi and current House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries publicly criticizing Schumer, and Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez saying that it would be "a big mistake" for Schumer to vote for cloture, which would allow the CR to pass with a simple majority, and mobilizing her base to call Senate Democrats.

Democrats were "melting down" about Schumer's cave before the vote. Kinda dog-bites-man on that one. When are they not melting down?
