Sen. Ruben Gallego for the messaging win! [View all]

According to Sahil Kapur on bluesky, Gallego told him he is a NO on the House funding bill and that means he will also vote NO to advance it procedurally.

Yeah, I don't get cute with this shit, said Gallego.

I have to say I like his style. Take heed, older Dem Senators. This is how you play the game now, Take notes or get out of the way.
