The Latest: Senate passes sweeping criminal justice overhaul

Lol

We have criminals pouring across the border and now they want to turn criminals lose, it sounds like a win for criminals.

Smells like GOP desperation.... want to look like they are doing something.

Creed63773939 This is very bad news. Why are the politicians opening the jails and putting felons back on the street? And they're sending a message that doing drugs is okay...

Congratulations

The police will still target black and brown people. There will always incarcerate the poor, while the whites with money will get a pass. 👀

Is Trump seeking lighter sentence for his family?

Everything Trump does is bad. I am confused.

It’s not about him

A win for Trump? Is that all it means? Makes one doubt the sincerity and the breadth of the reform.

It’s a win for everybody. It’s what Congress used to do — pass legislation. How about focusing on the substance of the bill and forget about horse-race politics for a day?

It’s a miracle.

Trump win? Really? What exactly did do?

Anything attached to the bill out of the norm?

Future inmates are trying to soften the laws.

What a garbage headline. Trump had ZERO to do with this. All he is gonna do is write his name, like he did on his letter of intent to build a Trump tower in Moscow

Thank You this is HUGE for millions of people and families and all of us who fought for criminal justice reform since 1994 A_Safe_Haven

Once again another example of Trump Derangement Syndrome. Quit looking at everything as a win or loss for Trump.

You mean the bill he tried to tie the wall to? Fohwtbs “a win”

Dear AP: Variants of First Step have been discussed before Trump was elected. Therefore, it's not a win for him (or Jared, or Javanka).

AP is digging super hard for 'wins' for Trump lately it seems

Think of what this country could have achieved over the last two years if the Dems had chosen a different path than hatred of a man...

It's a very good thing. Everyone should put it in perspective. Individual 1 aka realDonaldTrump gave republicans permission to pass this. He desperately needs backing from people of color. They didn't do it out of caring for those in prison. Take the win. Admit the facts.

You guys are gonna get a lot of crap for actually saying it was a bipartisan win for Trump. You’ll be out of business tomorrow

Who writes your headlines?

Bipartisan legislation is a win for the minority leader

How is that a win for Trump? Bipartisan legislation is a victory for Congress. And it’s what voters have been demanding that Republicans do for decades, which is probably about how long it will be before they do it again.

Kind of ironic that Trump would have anything to do with the term criminal justice !

Lol at this BS! Headline😂

Just for Sh!ts and G!ggs id love to see who voted NO

You had to ruin it with that last bit, huh. Ruiner.

Encouraging to see members of congress working together to accomplish something positive

Lots of salt in this thread about the title Doesn't AP know Leftists need a safe space from Trump and good news?

Same exact goddamn bill that Obama introduced 3 years ago, but they couldn't give him credit. So McConnell buried it. Fuckin' hypocrites.

Saintsfan5348 I’ll bet he doesn’t know what’s in the bill.

I think the win is to the folks being affected by the justice system - not a fat orange russian-owned dork who doesn't give 2 shots about the American people.

Where the fuck is wall funding

Breaking the government did something how amazing are those people.

I love Trump!

Change your irresponsible headline. It’s ridiculous.

Just wait for trump and his cronies take advantage of the new ruled...

“Law and order President”

I'm sure the leftist media will spin this backward.

cjsienna55 Great! Blacks, & Latinos will benefit from it! This is a big deal!

A_Smart_Liberal Good grief... Partisan win for Trump? Hardly.

So Dems and GOP can actually do their jobs when they want to? Good job! Now rinse and repeat with a budget.

This is not Trump’s victory do not glorify his name!

It's a bipartisan win for the American people and basic justice.

Ha, good one. Like Drumpf has any interest in taking money away from his private prison-owning cronies. Much less does he care about human suffering of any sort.

Not really a win for trump as it is a win for all those who actually worked out the legislation. Trump was not involved

HORRIBLE HEADLINE! I think “The Win” is for the citizens who will be helped by this bill. Although, it may eventually be a “win” in the future when trump is indicted of God knows how many crimes?

How is this A Win 4 him !!! If its A Win 4 him its a loss 4 America .... this man and his traitorous criminal enterprise r Enemies of the State .... nothing they do benefits America

Everyone is reporting it as a win to the President. Sure, that’s true, but isn’t it also a win to the legal system, those subject to it, & the American people as a whole? Why does every story have to be about the President? He’s head of one branch of govt. Many made this happen.

RosinaLucibello I’m sure Trump worked tirelessly behind the scenes to get this done! Not. His base could care less for this bill and Trump cares even less.

TY 45 🇺🇸

I hate this headline.

I bet he will walk off wondering with amnesia while Kushner grabs his hand to sign.

He knows he’s soon to be an inmate himself, so he’s trying to score some points with his future roomies.

Trump didn’t win nothing

Misleading and terrible headline. Not a win for trump.

Talk about low expectations... What kind of headline is this? Why is simply passing a piece of legislation described as a “win to President Trump”?

No mention of this on CNN & MSNBC!

What? a 'win' for potus? You mean he did something right?

One of the few things that Trump got right, though bill doesn't go far enough...

'win to President Trump' Give us a break AP. In case you missed the latest news, he's not actually the president and the last thing he is doing is winning

What are you on? It hasn’t even gone through the house yet. And he had shit to do with it. Also government shutdown is looming.

good timing for Trump to want to work on prison reform Indictments

USAMINDJOB you would really have to convince me that Trump has anything to do with whatever success that is...

Win? Trump? I’m confused

realDonaldTrump paving his way out from jail. His scamming tactics still effing this country.

My God. Who’s writing these headlines ?

burcham_don Just in time for all Trump's admin to catch a break in early release from jail.....

Democrats will vote for good bills. They are not refusing to support bills solely on the fact that Trump supports them. That's the way politics are supposed to work.

Believe in people and people will believe in them. Good Job all

Master Distractor art of the deal then over here 👈🏻 hammers out a MAGA victory

Sad day when choosing to not veto a bill that everyone supports is your big victory.

More like a bipartisan win to jaredkushner

An important First Step, congratulations to America and Americans

Thank you Trump and Congress for a bill that makes this country better.

Mr. Trump wins again! So much winning from this president. He will be overwhelmingly reelected in 2020!

I prefer it to be a win for the American people. 👍

Headlines you’ll never see from the AP: Trump dealt bipartisan L.

Win for tRump?

Kochs support this, which made it possible...if they had not, we would have gotten a different result. The GOP is beholden to the Kochs, Mercers, NRA, and apparently also Russia...

So the Senate works for the executive branch now, interesting. I kinda liked the checks and balances system

How is this a bipartisan win for Trump? Why are you framing it as such? Isn't it a win for prisoners and justice first? Just because dude was swayed by a few celebrities and the prospect of his own families pending incarceration? Come on AP I expect better from you guys at least

Wow, a positive headline for Trump from AP!

Got tip my hat to Trump on this on. Can’t stand him, but this is amazing.

Cuz the trumps and the gop are going to jail

Thanks Trump

The President took about 20 L's in the past week and it's only gonna get worse.He is toast

Fantastic! 🇺🇸

AP-whaaat? Headline much?

He is going to use it to pardon himself! so much maga!

And now to prison he goes. Great plan man

trump is still going to jail

Talking about the consequences of people’s lives as wins and losses, yes

Great

First major bipartisan bill in years

Jared was just prepping for the future needs of his family.

Win for Everyone.

I think it’s a win for the country, no?

MAGA

The Latest: Senate to take up Trump plan to end shutdownWASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the partial government shutdown (all times local): 4:50 p.m. Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell says he plans Senate action this coming week on President Donald Trump's plan to end the partial government shutdown. But the plan faces an uphill path in the Senate and virtually no chance of survival in the Democratic-controlled House. The Kentucky Republican calls Trump's proposal a 'fair compromise' for ending the standoff. Trump's plan would protect from deportation hundreds of thousands of young 'Dreamer' immigrants in the U.S. illegally, in exchange for $5.7 billion to build 230 miles of border wall. McConnell says, 'Everyone has made their point — now it's time to make a law.' Top Democrats already oppose Trump's plan. It will be difficult for the measure to get 60 votes needed to survive in the Senate, and it seems certain to die in the House. Temporary solution for Permanent Debt?!....No Thank You....Next! By quickly you mean before he even gave the announcement and offer? Dems are a joke. No wall.

The Latest: Senate approves stopgap spending billWASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on the fight over funding for a U.S.-Mexico border wall and a potential partial government shutdown (all times local): 10:03 p.m. The Senate has approved legislation to temporarily fund the government and avoid a federal shutdown over President Donald Trump's border wall. Senators passed the measure on voice vote Wednesday without a roll call. It goes next to the House. Congress faces a Friday deadline when funding for part of the federal government expires. Trump has not yet said he will support the measure, but the White House says he'll take a look. It does not provide $5 billion Trump wanted for the wall. Instead, it funds border security and other agencies at current levels through Feb. 8. Without resolution, more than 800,000 federal employees could be furloughed or ordered to work without pay days before Christmas. Voting was pushed back to late Wednesday and some senators sang Christmas carols in the chamber. kylegriffin1 Yeah but he get his artistically designed fence? Nice work, scumbags! Keep kicking the bucket. You’re only making it worse down the road

The Latest: Senate adjourns, guaranteeing partial shutdownWASHINGTON (AP) — The Latest on efforts to avoid a government shutdown (all times local): 8:25 p.m. The Senate has adjourned without a deal on spending, an hour after the House ended its session, guaranteeing a partial government shutdown will begin at midnight Friday. Senators expect to return at noon Saturday as talks continue. Vice President Mike Pence and other White House officials were on Capitol Hill late Friday trying to broker a compromise as President Donald Trump pushes for $5 billion in border wall funding, a proposal Democrats staunchly oppose. Without a deal, funding for about 25 percent of the government expires at midnight. Nine Cabinet-level departments and dozens of agencies, including the departments of Homeland Security, Transportation, Interior, Agriculture, State and Justice, will be affected by the shutdown Good. TrumpShutdown Well Trumpy got his shut-down, Republicans must be sooo proud 👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾👏🏾
