So the people causing the shutdown are getting paid. The people keeping the country running don’t.

And Speaker Mike Johnson won’t let the House come back to work. So basically they’re on a paid vacation while Americans miss paychecks.

I share your cynicism. Been disappointed countless times and it's a struggle not to be numb.

Sometimes even in MAGAville a level of outrageousness is reached. More of this please.

Only if Trump doesn't cancel midterms. He can declare some convenient emergency.

westphelan💙🔬🧪🐱🐓 @cwphelan.bsky.social · 3d

But not an issue.... ballroom being built not with tax money but donations and Trump's personal contributions...so he says and nobody believes.

westphelan💙🔬🧪🐱🐓 @cwphelan.bsky.social · 3d

Because the Democratic position is always the law.
