[BoogyMan]

This is infuriating. After being shutdown for 2 years these filth-bags should be tarred and feathered.

Senate Democrats are reportedly embracing a “Don’t Test, Don’t Tell” Wuhan Coronavirus protocol this weekend as they try to push a $764 billion spending bill through a 50-50 chamber.

Dubbed the “Inflation Reduction Act,” it needs all 50 Democrat votes so that Vice President Kamala Harris can cast a tie-breaking vote in its favor.

Hence the abrupt change in policy.

Democrats know that just one positive Covid test can wreck their plans to pass the hefty bill, which many Republicans argue will actually make inflation worse.

“Senate Democrats, some of whom have decried their G.O.P. colleagues’ lenient attitude toward masking, have adopted an unofficial ‘Don’t Test, Don’t Tell,’ protocol of late, particularly as they endeavor to pass the historic Inflation Reduction Act this weekend,” a Senior Senate Aide told Puck News.

“They’re not going to delay it if a member has gotten COVID… Counterparts are saying they’re not going to test anymore. It’s not an official mandate but we all know we’re not letting COVID get in the way. The deal is happening. Less testing, just wear masks and get it done,” the Senate Aide added...

Republicans should demand each and every person show a proof of COVID test prior to be allowed in Congress.

I'm not getting why the Dems are acting like this is the "big win against the Republicans" This is their two Senators finally caving. They could have had this 2 years ago.

Was I the GOP I would not only point that out early and often, but I would constantly have "Build Biden a Brain" vs what they are actually getting on display. Yes, it's more than nothing which is ideal for the right, but it's hardly what they were after.
