Liberal media figures are calling out the Democratic Party after eight senators voted with the GOP on a plan to reopen the government, accusing the party of caving as they try to end the longest shutdown in history.
Ex-CNN host Don Lemon, „The View“ co-hosts Sunny Hostin and Whoopi Goldberg, former CNN journalist Chris Cillizza and more were among members of the media lambasting the Democratic caucus members who voted to advance a plan to re-open the government on Sunday.
Sens. Angus King, I-Maine, John Fetterman, D-Pa., Catherine Cortez Masto, D-Nev., Jeanne Shaheen, D-N.H., Maggie Hassan, D-N.H., Jacky Rosen, D-Nev., Tim Kaine, D-Va., and the number two Democrat in the Senate, Dick Durbin, D-Ill., broke with the rest of the Democrats on the funding vote. King is an independent who caucuses with Democrats.
Lemon posted on TikTok and said the Democrats „caved.“
Goldberg said during „The View“ on Monday, „eight Senate Democrats threw in the towel by siding with the GOP to advance a vote that could lead to the government reopening.
