Firing people who are already not being paid does not save money.

We knew this would happen so the people put the pressure on Dems to cave. Its BS. Trump is a menace.


Republicans have the votes they own the House and Senate. Dems don't have to do a dam thing and if they do they are fools.



+1 Democrats shouldn't negotiate with terrorists.


Correct they shouldn’t HAVE to, but since they actually care about constituents, human rights, human welfare, et


If they cared about anyone other than illegals we wouldn’t be shutdown.


If you had half a brain and didn’t just rely on sound bites, you would under understand how utterly ridiculous that statement is.

If he's handling civil stuff, probably. If criminal, probably not.

Whatever. If they think any of this has shock value anymore they need to rethink. DOGE is already a widely acknowledged failure if not laughing stock so Vought can continue acting like Temu Voldemort. We don’t care.

This is probably the best way to deal with this regime. Half the stuff they do is to get a rise out of people. Mocking, taunting and giving zero Fs!
