      XPost: alt.business, sac.politics, alt.politics.trump       XPost: alt.politics.republicans, alt.fan.rush-limbaugh, talk.politics.guns       From: democrat-criminals@mail.house.gov              https://nypost.com/2021/03/06/kyrsten-sinema-takes-page-from-john-mccain-       with-thumbs-down-vote/              Arizona Sen. Kyrsten Sinema gave a nod to her late predecessor Sen. John       McCain with a flashy thumbs down vote in the Senate on Friday.              Video captured in the Senate chamber showed the newly elected Sinema       making the move to reject a proposal from Sen. Bernie Sanders to include a       $15 minimum wage increase into the Senate’s $1.9 trillion coronavirus       relief package.              Sinema was joined by seven other Senate Democrats as well as all       Republicans.              McCain famously voted no on a Senate plan to repeal Obamacare in 2018 with       a thumbs down that ultimately sunk the effort.              Though she supports raising the wage, Sinema said she would support the       ruling of the Senate Parliamentarian who determined that the minimum wage       could not be included as part of the Reconciliation process, a Senate       protocol, which is allowing the coronavirus relief bill to pass with 51       votes as opposed to the customary 60 necessary to override a filibuster.              “Senators of both parties have shown support for raising the federal       minimum wage and the Senate should hold an open debate and amendment       process on raising the minimum wage separate from the COVID-focused       reconciliation bill,” Sinema said in a statement explaining her vote.              The sentiment didn’t go over well among many in her own party, with       Progressives taking particular ire. Sanders took the floor Saturday to       urge his colleagues to disregard the Parliamentarian’s ruling, dismissing       him as an unelected employee of the Senate.              New York Rep. Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez was even blunter.              “Imagine having the ganas to go home and ask minimum wage workers to       support you after going back on your own documented stance to help crush       their biggest chance at a wage hike during their longest drought of wage       increases since the law’s very inception. Sin vergüenza,” she said in a       tweet.                     --       "LOCKDOWN", left-wing COVID fearmongering. 95% of COVID infections       recover with no after effects.              No collusion - Special Counsel Robert Swan Mueller III, March 2019.       Officially made Nancy Pelosi a two-time impeachment loser.              Donald J.

Obama sold out heterosexuals for Hollywood       queer liberal democrat donors.              President Trump boosted the economy, reduced illegal invasions, appointed       dozens of judges and three SCOTUS justices.              --- SoupGate-Win32 v1.05        * Origin: you cannot sedate... all the things you hate (1:229/2)    |
