I want to thank Senator Schumer and the other Senators for doing the right thing and keeping the government open. The other Democrat Representatives really showed who they are and how they really don't care about government employees getting paid.

This is all theatre. The bickering back and forth. The dramatic last minute resolution. They're playing good cop, bad cop.

@giannidarienzo5781 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Schumer a chump

@TravelWithGus March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Mr President please hurry up as we need you to get more done before the midterms. If you make enough changes, it won’t matter anymore.

Yall must not be looking around everybody hiring right now 35,000 new jobs nation wide

It's mind boggling that all we are doing is suing everyone & everybody..no wonder we are regressing as a country 🪖

The only Democrats that are worth keeping are the ones that helped to prevent the shutdown. The progressives have to go -they are only out for themselves – they don't care about the poor, they only care about getting their own way and staying in power.

Let me get this straight. Our GOV passed another CR that expires in SEP;

although the fiscal year (FY) ends in SEP;

therefore, in essence, our Congress would not have passed a budget this FY, correct?

Question: If it took you a year to complete a critical and mandated product to the CEO of your company; would you still have a job?

Government shutdown is like 2 kids fighting over a toy and when mommy can't find a happy medium to settle them down, they both have temper tandrums and the diapers have to absorb it the crap that follows..

@PaulXiong-q4r March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

All republicans NOT appreciate those democrats who help vote the funding bills… passed? Trump and his republican allies point their fingers at Democrats for sure?

@teryl4708 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

This is morally and ethically wrong, and the Dems that helped the Russian assets in Congress are complicit. We need to track these votes and ensure everyone knows who NOT to support during the next election!

The Democratic Party is not for the American people. Turning into a trash party.

I enjoyed watching Democrats do a complete 180° on government shutdowns being terrible 😂

@Troyl-w3w March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Lol. Not surprised 🤣. Doesn’t matter who is in office. This ALWAYS Happens 🤣

@Chica-l6g March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

CHUCK SCHUMER STOP FOLLOWING TRUMP!

TRAITOR!

@jeffreybays March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Ket the government shut down for a week. Let the American people see what is going on. Nobody even pays attention to a possible shutdown, since this happens every time and they extend the last measure at the last minute… for the last 2 years.

Disgusting

@TomZart March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

POLITICIANS & GOD’S BEST?!

By worthiness we must partake

For our days to be complete.

Our goodness of deeds magnifies life

No matter time’s tests of defeat.

Most the time as a politician stands up

Along with the truth, their brain sits down.

Promising anything and everything to anyone

While posing to the public, to be on common ground.

Some question why study history

Does our future depend on the past?

When we forget history, we repeat its mistakes

As the outcomes of all are cast.

I’m so angry with the Senate Dems for allowing this bill to pass! Stop giving up what limited power you have!! 😡

@Sir_Charles1558 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Does anyone else getting annoyed by the little “uh” sound people make when talking sometimes. It’s like they’re trained to do that to sound smarter?

@PetsandGiggles009 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Cutting domestic spending while boosting defense is a slap in the face to every taxpayer. This bill is just more proof that both parties are failing us.

@ronbennett4241 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Thank you thank you thank you thank you. We need it and you know it.

@irenegarcia4982 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

As always there are other things on the bill that were mentioned.

@rovingnomad8397 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

If they shut it down, trump would run around without anyone doing anything about it. It would be a free for all for Maga

@DottieGentry March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

It was just a continuation of pelosis 2023 bill.

@DavidPalen-zw4rt March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Schumer: "We don't have any leverage" – because you gave it all up by letting the CR come up for a vote. You are giving Tommy Tubberville a run for his money in the 'dumbest Senator' race. America's poor, elderly, children and veterans won't be any better off under the CR than if you showed some courage and let the government shut down. In fact they would be better off under a shutdown because the Democrats could have gotten some concessions in order to pass a bipartisan budget. Now MAGA can continue the assault on agencies which help the powerless. Time to step down Schumer!

@openedeyes3 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Ya'll seem oblivious to the fact that there is massive government waste and fraud, which partially explains the massive debt! For the first time in our history, we are shrinking the government. DOGE is conducting an absolutely necessary audit. Our country is in SEVERE DEBT!! Please pay attention. Do you want your kids to barely make it? Fraud in Medicaid. Fraud in social security. Fraud in FEMA. Would we have learned this without Trump and DOGE?

@peterweber3830 March 21, 2025 - 10:31 am

Chuck moving in line with Trump, money issues are guieted for 6 months, lets get down to business and move on

Stupid CNN did not even know what the vote was for. It was only to stop cloture.
