Fml. How are they allowed to go on recess while there isn't a budget


I just looked it up. Neither the House nor the Senate will be in session next week.

No, but it seems like it's all Trump's base cares about...football and idiots hugging the flag.


I can tell you right now, I have ardent Fox News following Republicans that I work with. I’m even friends with some. They want their paychecks too. It’s tough to support a family when you’re missing a paycheck. This idea that all government workers are Democrats was always an obvious lie. The Republicans I know would gladly give up the Super Bowl for their pay.

That will impact the Super Bowl.

Low priority


If you say so.

Football is stupid. Who cares? We have folks being forced to work with no pay.

Surely these meetings are essential. They must be!

I hope you are being sarcastic!

I think they only have funding for one pay period. After, everyone essential will be working without pay again. The guidance was very unclear.

No one has really been talking about State, which is a little weird given all the BENGHAZI cries.


Because State has been decimated.


Well, I agree with you. Unfortunately it’s a very different place than it was 2 years ago. Pompeo’s statement that morale is good is laughable.
