      Only the house is down. The only reason the house is down is so they can avoid swearing in Adelita Grijalva and having to vote on Epstein stuff. House GOP are huge sore losing cowards.

      The government shutdown doesn’t interfere with either house or senate doing business.

      Iirc, only the House is shut down. Someone said this is symbolic, with the House shut down this would never reach the President, who would certainly veto it anyway.

      Republicans don’t cross the aisle when it would mean anything. They just want to say they voted for something good, even though everyone can tell it won’t pass
