House Democrats ensure funding of Trump’s global military rampage and domestic dictatorship - Divisions by zero

>These votes demonstrate that the Democratic Party functions not as an opposition but as an enabler of the Trump administration. Its priority is to ensure the uninterrupted funding of the US military while diverting popular opposition with calls for meaningless cosmetic changes to the administration’s efforts to establish a presidential dictatorship.

I really don’t understand how this can be viewed as anything other than a win.

Necessary social programs, including taxing and auditing the rich, are getting funded through September while the entire DHS runs out in 2 weeks. That’s fantastic. That’s the best fucking news I’ve heard since before the second Trump term began.

Lmfao DHS will not run out of money. Remember when a private donor gave $130m to the military to cover wages? Yeah, that will happen again.

DHS got 75 billion to spend over the next decade in the BBB already…

The funding bill that just passed covers most of the government till September, but DHS just till end of next week, like 10 days.

They’re not gonna run out of money, but they have to burn that 75 billion down while all the good shit that wouldn’t have gotten any money gets funded.

Like, if you’re not happy with this, what would it have taken?
