Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on Tuesday tried to hold a vote to suspend the federal debt limit.
Republicans blocked Schumer again on Tuesday after blocking his efforts on Monday.
Government funding expires at 11:59:59 pm et Thursday.
Schumer failed again so now he’s threatening Republicans and accusing them of “playing games with the American people — political, nasty, and destructive games.”
Schumer said if he can’t get Republican votes, he will get it done with only Democrat votes.
“Democrats are ready to do it! Let’s have that vote today!” Schumer said threatening to go around GOP lawmakers.
