The hard truth: the only real safeguards the US government has against what we're going through right now is electing and appointing men and women who take their oath to uphold the Constitution seriously. A government built on the honor system crumbles when dishonorable people are in charge.

So my understanding is that if Dems in the senate block the funding bill as Schumer has promised, it will block SIX packages:

1. Defense
2. Labor-HHS-Ed
3. T-HUD
4. SFOPs
5. FSGG
6. DHS
