House plans Thursday vote on government funding bill to extend spending through November
Republicans can only lose two votes to pass spending bill on their own as Democrats signal opposition

This is cobbled together from speaking to multiple sources on both sides of the Capitol.

The House is now aiming to vote Thursday on the "clean" interim spending bill which would fund the government through November 27.

But Republicans must first get the bill through the House. Several senior House Republican sources said that they were still talking to the "usual suspects." Republicans can only lose two votes to pass a bill on their own. House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries (D-N.Y.) expressed confidence he could hold all of his Democrats together and oppose the bill.

Jeffries said that will be the focus of a Democratic Caucus on Thursday.

It is also still not a done deal that the House would move on Thursday. This could slip to Friday.

There is now the distinct possibility of a weekend session in the Senate, potentially Saturday.

Pass a budget instead.

"Clean?"  Does that mean it pees in a cup for weekly drug tests?

Great, setup the next Government shutdown fiasco for Thanksgiving.

Oh, no!  The US Senate may have to "work" on a Saturday!  The horror!  Someone call the UN Human Rights Commission.

I bet they could pass a budget on time if it contained a pay raise for themselves.

Bunch of amature wankers.
You don’t become cooler with age but you do care progressively less about being cool, which is the only true way to actually be cool.

They don't want to be on the hook for real budget cuts.  "Interim" spending at current levels keeps the pork a' flowing without have to do any heavy lifting.

They are unimaginative, lazy, cowards.

Wankers for sure but definitely not amatures. The know exactly how to keep the slop buckets coming.
