(3) Fetterman''s Vote on CR Sparks Debate Within Democrats / X
2025-03-14
[X] Senator John Fetterman has indicated his intention to vote in favor of the GOP's continuing resolution (CR) to prevent a government shutdown. This move has sparked a significant reaction within his party, with some Democrats
...every time you hear the phrase white people, white supremacy, white anything but paint, you're listening to a Democrat. Ask him/her/it to reimagine something for you; they do that a lot, though not well. They can hear a dog whistle a mile or two away. They invented the spoils system and Tammany Hall, and inspired the addition of the word (Thomas) Nasty to the English language. They want to stop continental drift and repeal the law of unintended side effects...
viewing it as a departure from expected party lines, while others see it as a pragmatic decision to avoid economic turmoil. The debate around this decision reflects internal party dynamics and the broader implications for government stability.

That vote for the gender dysphoric in the realm of the ladies notwithstanding, yeah, I'd still have a bourbon rocks with him.

#5  He still votes with the Dems.

Senator Fetterman is an old-fashioned liberal Democrat, not a rabid Progressive. Some issues he’ll vote with the Republicans on, others with the Democrats.

#2  Fetterman's point of view is, if it's pointless, why are we doing it?

#1  Fetterman is demonstrating that he's one of the last few liberals left in what is now a commie kleptocracy party. The rest have gone RINO joining the country club GOPe.
