ONCE AGAIN FOR THOSE IN THE BACK:

REPUBLICANS JUST STOPPED U.S. MILITARY MEMBERS FROM BEING PAID.

A few minutes ago in the House:

- Speaker Mike Johnson officially cancels votes next week, extending the House recess through a fourth week

- House Republicans block Democrats from passing a bill to pay the troops during the shutdown, ensuring they will miss paychecks next week

House Press Gallery: During today's pro forma session, the Clerk read a message from the Speaker designating Tuesday, October 14 through Sunday, October 19 as a district work period.

Punchbowl's Briana Reilly: House gaveled in and out of its pro forma just now w/o recognizing Rep Elfreth, who was seeking to UC a mil pay bill from Rep Sykes.

Elfreth told reporters after that House Dems stand “ready and willing to take” up standalone legislation to pay troops.

These people are all fucking idiots of the highest order. The definition of morons who think having money and influence makes them smart.

They are and will continue to find out just how wrong they are in the most painful ways possible 🇺🇸🇺🇸🇺🇸
