There's no way. As soon as TSA stops showing up to work, there will be a national fury.

This, and it’s 3 million people not getting paid (and the majority are still having to show up to work).

We’re trying to protect all AMERICANS, and those here legally, from skyrocketing healthcare costs. That’s it. When will MAGA finally see that Trump DOES NOT CARE ABOUT YOU? Only himself and his mega wealthy friends. If you are still falling for his blatant lies, you are severely uneducated and uniformed.

The Democrat bill has a provision specifically eliminating the provision from the Trump budget that removes illegals. This has nothing to do with expiring of the temporary additional ACA subsidies.

No it doesn’t.

CNN put it on screen.

Link?

I was thinking these aholes will probably pass something to keep TSA, FAA, DHS, Military happy and then the rest of us excepted suckers will be working without pay for months.

Except wouldn't passing something like this require the House returning to DC? Which MAGA Mike refuses to do for some Epstein. I mean reason.

There are very few genuine GOP or Dem politicians remaining in Congress. Most are RINOs and DINOs who no longer represent their GOP and Dem constituents. Most represent the interests of their wealthy campaign financiers first and foremost with little time or money left over to worry us common folk. Come on RINOs and DINOs, sign the bill!

Are you folks asking Dems to cave in and sign the bill scared types afraid of losing jobs or not getting paid until this gets over?

Grow a spine, if so, because there is more than your own monetary benefits to staying put based on principles. Giving in to bullies who already are running roughshod over you is how they figured they could do it and get away too.

PP here, if you are MAGA, asking Dems to sign the bill then I say go pound sad, because I thought you all do not want any dialog, so why you asking anything. Go do whatever. FAFO.

Federal employees know ending the shutdown without a commitment from Vought to faithfully administer the budget would be a terrible idea. The only feds that want the dems to cave are MAGAs.

Got it, thanks for clarifying that. Why are MAGA asking anything of anyone, they don't want compromise on anything, and now time to see what a deadlock means when everyone does same back. Not interested anymore in any dialog with MAGA types, tried it in past, did not work, and now over. All I say is go pound sand.

This is correct! The government is shut down because the Republicans are too incompetent to be able to use their majorities to pass the legislation needed to keep it open.

Indeed. They think that silly tradition known as the filibuster is more important than having a working government. Sad!

No- they think that keeping the Epstein files secret and keeping an autocratic government are more important than having a working government. Sad.

There are people with close ties to the mega-donors of our corrupt major political parties mentioned in those files. They won't be released as long as the GOP and Dem Parties are in control of Congress.
