Manchin Buries His Head in His Hands, Tells Schumer His Unhinged Senate Speech Attacking Republicans Was “F*cking Stupid”
Senate Minority Leader Mitch McConnell on Wednesday caved to Joe Biden and said he would agree to a debt limit increase through December.
Senate Majority Leader Chuck Schumer on Thursday filed cloture to end debate and the senate voted Thursday evening.
The Senate voted 61-38 to end debate and advance the debt limit increase bill.
The US Senate then held a final vote on raising the debt limit after voting to end debate.
A simple majority was required.
The Senate voted 50-48 to raise the debt limit by $480 billion.
But this still wasn’t good enough for Chuck Schumer.
Schumer shouted from the senate floor late Wednesday evening and blasted Republicans.
