All federal employees should remember this at the polls. Especially if Trump refuses to pay the required back wages once we get reopened.
That said, 20m Americans are at risk of losing health insurance through ACA.
For the rich, Trump cancelled taxes. For the middle class, he cancels insurance.

Boy, bet Xi is scared now.
Does Trump really think China gives a shit?
They’ll just raise our loan rates so high we can’t afford to keep borrowing from them.
Who’s gonna be loser then?

This headline can be explained in three words.
“Trumps a dick”.

Come mid-terms, all of America needs to remember that the party in control caused this crisis. They shit the government down by not listening to what the rest of their needed votes would take.
Seems Susan Collins can always be wined and dined to get her vote. All while they go alone w/out dems

So everyone says the employees will receive back pay, except DAPOTUS.
It’s a tool. A weapon to try to get the dems back to open govt.
what it really should do is get EVERYONE to the polls to vote to end this admins non-sense opinions to drum up support from the right.

I’ll never shop Publix again. Rest assured. Waiting for their first “accident” to happen now.

OMG! He’s gonna shut the doors on Antifa! The sky is falling, the sky is falling!

Case is already falling apart.
Comey wins! Trumps still a loser.

So in other words, he’s an ambassador where we’ve not needed one. I bet he figures out a Trump way of fucking this up.

Now we know mind isn’t plural in this case. Carneys mind met with Trump. Trump has no mind, unless he’s told what it is.

robert64.bsky.social @robert64.bsky.social · 3d

And dems should stand firm. Congress (dems only ones to stand up to Trump) should require conditions that Trump HAS to pay what has been funded. Period.
He’s not King, and I’d rather we have no government for three years than a Trump only government.

robert64.bsky.social @robert64.bsky.social · 3d

And the dems see this for what it is. Use this to our advantage. In 47 presidents, none has ever NOT paid federal workers for the back pay. Until this one.
Broadcast this fact far and wide and often.

They’re only insurrectionists if they DONT donate to Republican Party.

robert64.bsky.social @robert64.bsky.social · 4d

Why didn’t Obama think of this?
Cause Obama is a DECENT HUMAN BEING.
Another example of how low Trump will go to “blame” the evil democrats. Every federal employee should vote straight democrat next election. There not a republican out there who will stand up to Trump.
Party over country

Trump demands Dems 'open our government' as shutdown enters seventh day and more top headlines

Funny how just a week ago the GOP was in full control and didn’t need the democrats. My how the tides have changed. Now the Dems are controlling the country. Perhaps Trump should be a negotiator.

Diddy will be included . They both have dirt on Trump and it’s the only way he will keep them quiet

It’ll be hard to turn the military against the American public if the military isn’t getting paid. Dems should continue to vote NO until they get ACA bill AND assurances that Trump won’t continue stopping Congress approved funding. Why vote to fund if TRUMP ends the payments?

robert64.bsky.social @robert64.bsky.social · 4d

JUST RELEASE THE EPSTEIN FILES SO WE CAN END THIS ADMIN.

Time for Trump to pardon both Diddy and Maxwell.
You know, just to keep them quiet so they don’t OUT Trumps secrets.

Journalist Edward R. Murrow used his platform on CBS to criticize the witch hunts led by Senator Joseph McCarthy in the 1950s.

This is what real journalism should do — hold power to account, not capitulate to it.
