Before I die, I would like to hear the sound of a prison door slamming behind Russ Vought. And while I believe 8x8 cells in a Supermax are crimes against humanity, I would make an exception for him occupying one.

These federal firings have nothing whatsoever to do with the government shutdown, and if that is not the lede of every report discussing them, and if you are the author of any such report, quit your job and learn to surf or something instead
