At least I don't have to deal with the rest of the world, though. It's very nice where I live.

Wouldn't want to upset the people funding your re-election.

Get them all out. Clean house in our government.

I hope the Democrats who simply don't get other continue to be primaried and lose. Being one of 5 democrats who helped defeat this is proof that you don't don't get it.

It doesn't, but it's insanely common to tack random shit like this onto "must-pass" bills because they wouldn't pass on their own.

It looks like it was blocked for being a rider and not on its own merits.

So what?

Why would any decent human being want us to keep propping up Saudi Arabia's war efforts in which they routinely commit atrocities and target Yemeni civilians, unless they're just one of our numerous out-for-self, bag-of-dicks career politicians who based their decision on "I'm not getting that sweet delicious Saudi money next re-election if I help pass this" ?

I shouldn't have to pass a pukestain bill just because it'll pull us out of Yemen.

I don't know what the context is regarding the rest of the bill but I can't fault anyone for voting against it with what I do know.

Okay so basically, the rider on this Farm bill was that the House can't vote on a bill related to US support for the war in Yemen. So there's not going to be a vote to either reaffirm support or to cease support.

Of course it has nothing to do with the Farm bill.

Well now it sounds like a really sneaky way to force us to continue supporting them since that's our current position, right?

Fuck that noise then.
