Senate Democrats on Monday rejected a GOP-led stopgap funding bill for the 11th time as the shutdown heads into its fourth week.

Senators voted 50-43 on the House-passed bill, which would fund the government through Nov. 21. Democratic Sen. Catherine Cortez Masto of Nevada and Independent Sen. Angus King of Maine were the only senators who broke rank to vote to advance the bill. Sen. John Fetterman (D-Penn.) did not vote.

That's my understanding as well, so it not being a reconciliation pretty much means this fucker is never getting passed. At least not until they make enough concessions for the Dems, which I'll be honest I don't want concessions. I want them to withdraw their participation in this government other than to vote no on everything.

They won't do that, but that's my wish.
