STILL waiting for IBJ to ask Andre Carson why he and his staff are getting paid
STILL waiting for IBJ to ask Comrade Spartz why she and her staff are getting paid.
Better question, Chuck, is why Mike Johnson keeps the House from showing up to work.
I have not noticed the government is shut down.
But then again, I only write checks to them and am not on only welfare program.
Should I stop writing checks?
Get off the government teet, and experience freedom.
A government job is a drain to taxpayers.
Privatize it all
I find it funny how many of those who claim they aren’t on government programs are counting on (or are on) Social Security and Medicare.
Or how many went to public schools, or used public roads. Or relied on public police or firefighters.
IMO, the “privatize it all” movement is just a bunch of folks who benefitted from the generosity/grace of their parents and grandparents and have decided their kids and grandchildren should not have the same advantages they did, either from greed or just refusing to recognize that “I did it all myself” is a fallacy for almost all of us.
“Privatize it All” Libertarians have an 8th-grader’s understanding of economics.
Republicans need to either follow Trump’s bidding and blow up the filibuster to re-open the government … or make an actual effort to end the shutdown, like negotiating the bill in the Senate and sending it over to the House.
For a political party that controls the White House and both houses of Congress, it’s amazing how feeble and rudderless they are and how their own plan was “Democrats will fold because they’re weak”.
It’s almost as though they don’t want the government to be open. Wonder why that would be the case?
their own plan >> Their only plan
Republicans could’ve gone nuclear at any time. They just don’t want to be blamed for gutting the ACA & they thought they’d get good PR by blaming Dems. The latter point didn’t work out.
Those being hurt by this remember this simple FACT…..with no new legislation offered by the GOP, only to continue to operate the DEMOCRATS said NO X 13 times! There’s no legitimate spin. Irresponsible, self serving, disruptive, irresponsible Bolsheviks (Russian term for anarchy by the numbers).
MAGA shutdown.
Republicans control all three branches of government. They own this and it’s showing in elections already. Blue wave incoming
I am wondering if there was an air traffic controller on duty in Louisville tower watching the UPS plane take off role to alert the pilots to an engine on fire !
Trump is a loser. Maga is holding the country back. Broad executive tariffs are illegal. Immigration enforcement is violating the constitution. Americans are losing prosperity in almost every way shape and form. End the shutdown by negotiation. Release the files. It will all be over soon.
Republicans are incapable of governing.
Speaking of President Trump, the self proclaimed “Great Negotiator”, where is he other than ranting about nothing and continuing to show he has the mental capacity of President Biden?
Criticism of the mental capacity of Biden was just projecting by Republicans. If Biden was too senile to serve, Trump had no business being in office either.
But Republicans these days aren’t exactly known for consistency …
