It's their fucking job to prevent this.

They were doing a good job before the voters cut off both of their arms by giving MAGA majorities in the house and senate and the presidency.

How is giving police departments, now working to enable the authoritarian agenda which WE ALL KNEW THEY WOULD DO, even more money "doing a good job?"

There was no right choice with the continue resolution. Both outcomes were shit and cause pointless death and suffering.

So be mad at the people who wrote it.

Yes there was a right choice, as shown by the polling I literally just linked. You're supporting the wrong choice.

EDIT: Sorry I didn't realize you weren't SatansMaggotyCumFart, but please see the links below.

I would have preferred the CR got struck down, but I also realize there are more avenues of resistance with continued government, so I'm very ambivalous to both options. If the general public always decided right and wrong to minimize suffering and casualty, Donald Trump wouldn't be president, Biden wouldn't have won the 2020 primaries.

Right but again, we don't have to wonder what the public would think because this has happened multiple times in the last decade and they blame Republicans. This isn't an unknown, pretending like it is doesn't help anyone.
