This hidden provision is so crooked and selfish, it doesn't even apply to US Representatives. Just US Senators.
Look at this new outrage. To open govt, we're retroactively letting 8 Senators sue for $500K each over having had their J6 phone toll records looked at. www.nytimes.com/2025/11/10/u...
Spending Bill Would Pave Way for Senators to Sue Over Phone Searches

Senators whose phone records were sought by Special Counsel Jack Smith would gain authority to sue for millions in damages under a provision buried in the Senate-advanced deal to reopen the government.

Giving in to Trump doesn’t make you a moderate.

It makes you an accomplice.

If I was a Senate Republican, I would be on every TV news program saying, "we knew the Dems would cave but it took a little longer, but we knew they would cave. Dems are weak.

Just want to say, Fuck you @democrats.senate.gov . We know the game you played and more of you were really yes votes. Once again you failed to read the room and destroyed the momentum. Why should I vote for losers?

Trump is executing people in the Caribbean and sending others to El Salvador to be tortured and raped.

This is the party that Chuck Schumer is making a shutdown deal with.

@schumer.senate.gov @democrats.senate.gov
Trump kidnapped 200 Venezuelan men in the US and sent them to the gulag in El Salvador.

The New York Times interviewed 40 of them imprisoned there.

They described being beaten, sexually assaulted by guards, and driven to the brink of suicide.

Trump will end up right there with Pol Pot.

After everything, Senate Democrats still haven’t figured out that surrendering to Trump Republicans will end badly? Unbelievable.

I'd like for someone in the dem caucus to tell us which senators were real no votes and which ones voted no because they were allowed to.

Somebody repost the Senator that tells the truth, about 30 Senators wanted this outcome. Then, they found the eight that could most withstand the blowback and had them cast the votes while the others hid behind them. More than 8 spineless cowards here I'm convinced.

The only thing you can count on from the GOP - other than them being accomplices to every single Trump crime - is for them to never, ever, act in good faith.
Q: Will you assure House Democrats they'll get a vote on ACA subsidies by a date certain?

MIKE JOHNSON: Ah -- no. I'm not promising anyone anything.

Republicans are going to laugh at Democrats and do nothing on healthcare. They will continue helping Trump fulfill Project 2025.

Dems learn nothing.

Trump is 30 points underwater. Dems swept the special elections. People know the GOP is responsible for the shutdown. So the Dem Senators pulled out their big guns... and shot themselves in the foot.

Listen guys, as soon as the Dems cave, the republicans will be on every TV news program still blaming it all on Dems. Our momentum is gone.

Chris Murphy: "There will be pretty substantial damage to a Dem brand that has been rehabilitated if on the heels of an election in which the people told us to keep fighting, we immediately stop... if we surrender without having gotten anything, I worry it'll be hard to get them back up off the mat"

Here is something else to piss you off today.
1/ The US Government has quietly removed a memorial to Black soldiers who died in World War II from the Netherlands American Cemetery in Margraten, South Limburg. The move follows a complaint from the right-wing Heritage Foundation to the American Battle Monuments Commission. ⬇️

This is not a deal — it's an empty promise.

Trump and his Republican Congress are making healthcare more expensive for the middle class and ending it for working families.

Time for Democrats to stand tall for affordable healthcare. www.politico.com/news/2025/11...
