"The Senate approved a resolution from Sens. Jon Tester and Ron Wyden (pictured) that would block the recent Treasury Department change to IRS forms allowing political nonprofits to avoid listing some donors."

Politico

"Prior to the vote, Senate Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) said the resolution was an "attempt by some of our Democratic colleagues to undo a pro-privacy reform. ... In a climate that is increasingly hostile to certain kinds of political expression and open debate, the last thing Washington needs to do is to chill the exercise of free speech and add to the sense of intimidation."

I guess Trump isn't really is into transparency as he says.

You forgot this part.

The measure is unlikely to be taken up by the GOP-controlled House, and it was opposed by conservative groups, including the Koch-backed Americans for Prosperity.

And when the House brings it up in the next Congress, I get it won't pass in the new Senate.

Right.

Because GOP will have a bigger majority next year as this vote just barely passed with Susan Collins voting yes, 50-49.

Collins won't be a problem next year.

I'm having trouble keeping up with your point of view. Do you think the government should have more transparency or less because Donald Trump is saying that it should be more transparent but he's doing something else. I know you catch on slow but you should be able to notice at this point

I guess you're missing my point. You guys keep saying you want to drain the swamp and Trump keeps saying he wants transparency but this looks like something completely different. Don't you want to hold your lawmakers accountable? Or only when it's Democrats?

Trump now has a Murkowski/ Collins proof Senate.

Judges will only be more conservative moving forward

I'm pointing out the hypocrisy which now you're pretending like you don't care about.

No you aren't. You have never actually debated me because every time you start to try, and I presented facts or numbers of any kind, you run away. You just say a sentence or two, usually an agreement with people smarter than you, or something smarmy and then you run away. You're a weak-minded arse clown and I'm pretty sure even your own people know that.
