I guess the National Guard will be deployed and elections cancelled?


“Democratic shutdown”? LOL! Which party is in power?


Are you really the f'ing stupid?
You need 60 votes to open.
Del are blocking.


Why can't Republican find 15 Senators willing to join Democrats to reopen the government? .



Democrat senators are the ones keeping it shut down. The republican House and republicans in the senate have all voted to end it. The democrats are the holdouts here.


Republicans own all branches of government. It is their duty to work - not close the House week after week- to negotiate and get a deal. Instead they are doing literally nothing and trumps agencies are violating the Hatch Act with the political messages about the closure. Youngkin playing politics by blaming Democrats is offensive and I can’t wait until that Trump sycophant is gone from VA government.


Newsom isn't even bothering to feed Californians. He is just blaming Trump as SNAP benefits run out in California. Newsom would rather see people starve.

Newsom today announced that President Trump’s federal government shutdown will likely delay food benefits for millions of Californians who rely on CalFresh cards to feed themselves and their families.

So well run VA with a surplus can move funds to keep SNAP benefits flowing while MD and DC cannot. Interesting story.

For the Republicans to come on here and insist that it’s not politically motivated is laughable on its face. Can we please be reasonable and straight with ourselves and others for a change?


Republicans are incapable of rational, good faith discussions.

Like kids with cancer who are about to lose their healthcare thanks to Medicaid and subsidy cuts? Or perhaps the kids with MAHA idiots for parents who don’t know the difference between the chicken pox and the measles because they haven’t had either thanks to vaccines? Or maybe the kids getting shot up in schools while Republicans think and pray,

Just trying to figure out what kids Republicans care about. The born ones, that is.

You’re projecting. Your orange clown king is killing how many kids by recklessly stopping USAID?

4.5 million kids under 5 over the next five years.

I guess California didn’t have couple billion in reserve for when Trump decided to illegally withhold benefits as a bargaining chip. They could just impound all federal taxes for every tech employer doing business in the state. That should take care of it.
