The #Republicans that showed up to the #TrumpTrial today in Manhattan were *lawmakers* who are all about disrupting legislative business & have no issue w/embarrassing their own party on the #House floor. It included many #HouseFreedomCaucus members who have frozen the chamber for days on end, most recently voting down their party’s own rules as an act of *protest*.
Idiots.

The #RulesCommittee has traditionally been an organ of the speaker, & #legislation is typically advanced to the floor in a straight party-line vote.
It reflected the extent of #FarRight anger over Speaker #MikeJohnson’s plan to push through the #legislation over the opposition of #ultraconservative #Republicans, & underscored how heavily the speaker will have to rely on #Democrats to push it across the finish line.

#HouseRepublicans took a critical step late Thurs night toward bringing up the long-stalled foreign #aid bill for #Ukraine, after being forced to rely on Democrat votes to move a plan to consider it out of a key cmte & onto the floor.
The 9-to-3 vote in the critical #RulesCommittee was an early step in the convoluted process the #House is expected to go through over the next couple of days to approve the $95B aid package.

By a vote of 51 to 48, w/ 1 senator voting “present,” the #Senate ruled that the charge was #unconstitutional because it failed to meet the requisite #constitutional bar of #HighCrimesAndMisdemeanors. #Republicans united in opposition except for Senator Lisa #Murkowski of Alaska, the lone “present” vote, while #Democrats were unanimous in favor, after arguing that a cabinet member cannot be impeached & removed merely for carrying out the policies of the admin they serve.

#Senate now going through nonsensical #Republican motions re #Mayorkas #impeachment that are all being rejected. There will likely be more before a real vote on Schumer’s point of order that article I is unconstitutional.

#TSA screeners would remain on the job #withoutPay, many of whom called in sick as a #protest after a previous #shutdown dragged on for wks, sparking nationwide #travel delays.
It would also leave #Congress w/few alternate paths to fund the govt. A likely last resort would have been another #stopgap resolution to preserve existing #funding, potentially triggering #cuts to #defense spending.

Earlier this month, lawmakers were able to negotiate & pass a 6-bill $460B spending package that just barely met the 1st deadline on Mar 8, & are now repeating the process — this time haggling over funding for more politically fraught agencies — before the 2nd deadline at the end of this week.

#HouseRepublicans, the #Senate, #Democrats & the #WhiteHouse had been at loggerheads over funding levels for the #DHS. For days, they had been litigating disagreements that threatened to imperil the spending package that also funds the #Pentagon, the #StateDepartment & other #FederalAgencies. They are facing a midnight deadline on Fri to pass the measure & avert a lapse in funding.

Sen. Amy #Klobuchar (D-MN) said #Senate #Democrats have concluded that #uninterrupted #aid to #Ukraine is their top goal, adding that aid negotiations will be saved for a supplemental request.
“I believe there’s a bunch of #Republicans who are w/ Ukraine. The big test … is going to be what happens w/the supplemental & what happens in the next few weeks,” she said.#GovernmentShutdown #shutdown #NationalSecurity #RepublicanDysfunction #Obstruction

As for the #ContinuingResolution, #Blumenthal said no #Senate #Democrats indicated they were going to vote against it over its lack of funding for #Ukraine. He expects a vote on the #House-passed CR w/in the next few hours.

“I would have preferred that a bill that had some #assistance for #Ukraine & a #border proposal which we’ve been working very hard on,” Sen Susan Collins (R) said after the House passed its bill. “But the most important goal is to prevent a #GovernmentShutdown. If we can do that today, I will feel we will have accomplished more than the American people anticipated.”
(That’s a pretty low bar, Collins, & it’s only that low because of #RepublicanDysfunction)
