Yet another GOP shutdown?

Anonymous
How many people are now stuck in DC until this gets resolved? Don’t federal workers have to go in to shut it down and be close by when it reopens to open it up again? Or can they do it remotely for now?

I was looking forward to easy commutes next week

ATCs and TSA won’t get paid during the busiest part of the year.


It would be kind of cool if Trump trashes Christmas. Kind of a “welcome to my second term”.

Something will pass by Friday because Congress wants to go home. They will find an excuse to give Trump the middle finger and Trump will accept it because his a weak, lame duck and Musk will Xhit some lies and we'll all move on.

I doubt it. Trump shut the government down right before Christmas in 2018 for 5 weeks. He isn’t even President yet, and somehow these fools are letting him run the show. How is that going to look in the history books? “The GOP followed the President-ELECT’s lead and shut down the government for…. Costing the government $XX… “ It’s so stupid.

Trump will say "it happened under Biden" and his idiot followers with a 5th grade education will cheer it on.

Then President Doge will convince Rs in Congress to raise the debt ceiling to bankrupt the country like every Trump company, and his idiot followers will cheer him on.

I like that.

Shutdowns cost more than regular funded government operations. 💡

These two things right here.

Shutdowns cost more than keeping government running. Every time Congress goes to shutdown they spend taxpayer money to do it.

Also, Congress has given themselves a raise even as they fret over spending, create DOGE and associated committee to look at feds (feds are not Congress), etc.

Please be aware of these things.

That is correct. Trump I think wants the year to end with some disorder so that he can blame the baseline condition on Biden.

It is titled: “ Statement from Press Secretary Karine Jean-Pierre” and includes no statements or messages attributed to the President. I think we are now at the Weekend at Bernies point of the Biden administration.
