In addition to doing nothing to extend the enhanced ACA tax credits, the bill lacks language “saying that Trump has to spend the money,” The American Prospect‘s David Dayen lamented.

“He can keep withholding funds, and even rescind them with a party-line vote,” Dayen added. “None of the problems that inspired the shutdown are resolved.”

Schumer personally voted against the legislation, which progressives dismissed as a face-saving maneuver.

It is time to take the trash out.

      They totally do, obviously. But, I don’t know what to tell you, if a person is so stupid they don’t see people mentioning Fetterman’s stroke based heel turn since it happened, it says more about that person. If you didn’t notice, you might either not be paying attention, or you are being purposefully obtuse, no one forgot Fetterman’s conservative stroke. Are you an aussie? That would def explain it.

      These comments are the same comments I’ve been seeing on posts mentioning Fetterman for years. People hate John Fetterman. I’m also people.
