The Spending Bill That The House Passed Is What Krasnov Wants, The Senate Bill Is A Smoke Screen

I was shocked when Senate Magats were prepared to pass a Bill that segregated DHS spending from the rest of the spending. I erroneously thought that Magat Senators were going to buck Krasnov.

A Krasnov call last night to Lindley Graham( IMO) shut down the vote, I predict deja vu all over again.

The House passed the bill that Krasnov wants so now all he has to do is get his rogue Senators on board and kill the Senate Bill.

Then after the government is shut down for a while it will be deja vu all over again, back in March when Schumer gave Senators permission to vote for the CR that paved the way for the Big Ugly Death Bill to be passed.

Hope I am wrong. Talk me off my cliff.

There will be a demand for the Senate to vote on the House Bill and it will be up to Schumer to stand his ground.

separates DHS spending from the rest of the spending. DHS is only temporarily funded under the present Senate Bill.

The House Bill funds DHS to the gills, DHS will have more money than most countries Defense Departments.

The Senate can't make the Bill any worse than it already is in the House Bill which was already passed.
