On the other side, and I negotiated in the appropriations area, is actually in this bill. The yeas are 366. The nays, 34. One member voting present. Two-thirds being in the affirmative. The rules are suspended. The bill is passed, and without objection, the motion to reconsider is laid on the table.
So the government's going to be funded. Elon Musk and Donald Trump folded like a cheap napkin and Democrats held their ground. You heard it there. What ended up happening on this continuing resolution to stop a government shutdown The House passed a bill to avert the midnight shutdown. The bill passed 366 to 34. One person voted present. 170 Republicans voted yes. 196 Democrats voted yes. 34 Republicans voted no. Zero Democrats voted no. Once again, as Jake Sherman reports, Democrats saved Republicans. Another big point after Donald Trump has been saying that he would not support a continuing resolution to stop a government shutdown unless the debt ceiling was abolished or unless the debt ceiling was increased or unless an extension on the debt ceiling for several years was done.
That did not happen in this continuing resolution. In other words, what Donald Trump and Elon Musk were asking for, all of the theatrics, all of the drama, all of the wild behavior ended up being for naught. None of that happened. No debt ceiling was even addressed in this continuing resolution. After all of that, House Republicans weren't at all moved by Trump's demands to lift the borrowing cap to add more debt, which increased the deficit. Trump effectively asked for one thing. He didn't get it. Now on to the Senate, which is expected to pass. this continuing resolution. As Mr. Capra puts it, on Wednesday, here's the post, Trump threatens, I'm going to primary any Republican who votes for a clean, continuing resolution without a debt limit extension to keep the government funded. Let's get ready for a shutdown, Trump said. But then on Friday, moments ago, 170 Republicans voted for a clean continuing resolution without a debt limit extension.
