It is amusing watching both Democrats and the media try to blame Republicans for blocking the defense bill when 5 Democrats voted against it. From that article:
“Republicans just blocked legislation to support our troops, support our families, keep Americans safe. Republican dysfunction has again derailed bipartisan progress,” Schumer said from the Senate floor, calling the GOP stance “inexplicable and outrageous.”
Funny how he places blame squarely on Republicans with no comment the 5 in his own party who also voted against.

Now had all Dems voted for it, THEN you could blame Republicans. But they needed 60 votes to pass it and got 45. That ends up being a breakdown of 10 R's and 5 D's that blocked it.

Media bias is pretty bad.

Chris Cuomo got caught with cred down. CNN gave him the heave-ho.
