Poor Mark, still peddling the same old tired tropes. Republicans control the House, the Senate, and the Presidency, if they can’t get a CR or budget passed exactly whose fault is that again?? IF they need Democrats to get to 60 in the Senate then negotiate with them, that is how democracy works. Why is it that the Dems kept the government working in 23 & 24 with a Republican controlled House? Because they negotiated with them.

Make no mistake, this is the Trump shutdown. Release the Epstein Files!

This is all on republicans so please stop lying and trying to blame Democrats. Republicans control the House, Senate, Executive and Judicial branches. You can’t be this stupid.

Trump always said in the past that it’s the president who is to blame for shutdowns so why don’t you just take him at his word on this?

Btw, what has happened to this blahg? $20 billion bailout to Argentina for…reasons. Forthcoming bailout to farmers due to tariffs. Masked goons in unmarked vans randomly snatching people off the streets. Free speech being stifled by Trump and his quislings on a daily basis.

Where’s the outrage? Is Will ok?

Carrying water for the Guardians of Pedos isn’t a good look. It’s a Republican shutdown because it continues to distract from the Epstein files.

Not giving in to the Republicans may be a mistake, but it’s not for any of the reasons you state. They are trying to keep 500,000 South Carolinians and millions in other states, like Georgia, Florida, and Texas from seeing a dramatic increase in their health insurance premiums in January, because Trump wanted billionaire tax cuts, and needed money for that. They should probably just let it happen and make sure everyone knows who is responsible.

Yes, it’s not fair. Yes, Trump will lie about it and blame it on someone else. Yes, Republicans will continue to lie and say the shutdown is about illegal aliens and a far-left agenda. But anyone with a brain knows all of that is total BS. Nothing the Democrats proposed would change the current law regarding health care for undocumented people in this country. Trump needs money for the billionaire tax cuts, and that’s it. So maybe just say and let it happen, since I don’t see Republicans disappointing the people who give them brib… er donations anytime soon.

One more solution: why not offer to release the Epstein Files in exchange for your billionaire tax cut money? LOL
