Republicans want to cut health care by trillions of dollars and they keep blaming the Democrats. Republicans control the White House, Senate and the House. This is 100% on Dumpster wanting to make cuts to the middle and lower class while the rich get richer.

A new non-equity tour started in October 2012 played its final performance on March 23, 2013. Another non-equity tour launched on January 20, 2018. The tour ended its US run in Kansas City and then toured throughout Japan August & September 2018.

It's just a game to these people. A team sport. Consequences on the lives of citizens are irrelevant to them.

Is anyone beginning to feel (or see) the effects of the shutdown?  Not all National Parks have been affected.  But our local Cabrillo National Monument has shut down, with a guard turning away visitors.  It's a popular site, so its closure is a disappointment for all.

It's not going to end anything soon. There might be pressure to end this prior to the busy Thanksgiving travel weekend. But anyone not getting paid now should be trying to secure other potential sources of income.

Exactly. The GOP doesn't give a f*ck about the average citizen in America, so them losing their jobs doesn't affect them in any way. They have no reason to talk to the Dems because they refuse to compromise or even communicate. God, I can't wait for the midterms.

Yes. In the meantime however, unarmed immigrants and US citizens are being victimized with the use of deadly weapons. Here, in Chicago, residents and citizens are being shot and killed by masked, unidentifiable people who may or may not be ICE agents. 

Meanwhile, those elected to protect us, and defend the Constitution are trading adolescent memes back and forth. According to the Vice President they are "having a good time".

Our government is completely shutdown. The commander in chief is golfing, and the secretary of war is preparing our generals to fight "the war within". The president has said that cities like Chicago should be used for military practice.

THERE IS NO TIME TO WAIT FOR MID-TERM ELECTIONS.

Begin by calling and emailing your state representatives (including senators and governor), EVERY DAY. Request IMPEACHMENT and every tactic they can think of to remove Trump and his administration from office immediately. 

Please do not wait, or count on mid-term elections to solve this problem. It is already too late.

Citizens and neighbors are being gunned down without consequence or retribution. Maybe not in your neighborhoods right now, but it is certainly happening in mine. The writing is on the wall. The time to act is NOW.

Our neighbors are a married couple with two small children.  Both are career employees with the U.S. Federal Government, but different agencies.  They live in fear that their jobs and their incomes will be swept from underneath them, especially now that thugs in D.C. are making the decisions about their employment.

Should you know of anyone in similar circumstances, please take a moment to offer a bit of understanding and kindness.  

We are all in this together.

Kdogg expressed concern over this in another thread, and you told him to "SHUT THE FCK UP".

That's not fighting the good fight.

Please correct me if I am wrong.   As understand, Democrats have shut down the government because they want Americans to pay for medical care for illegal aliens, people who have committed the crime of entering our country illegally.   I was always of the understanding that if a person violates our immigration laws, that is a crime.   What do we tell all the people who came to America legally, obeyed our laws?  What do we tell all our veterans, all those who have served, and the relatives of all the soldiers who died for our laws, our constitution, our culture?  As I understand, America has the most illegal aliens than any industrialized country in the world.  Some estimates go as high as 20 million.

Aw sweetie, how can the Democrats shut down the government when we have no control of it? Look at your party of MAGAts who are currently on a PAID vacation from their jobs doing absolutely nothing, while the American people want them to simply stop bitching and get back to work. Ease up on the Truth Social, it just makes you dumber.

We've successfully evicted the 3 freak show GOP members and you're the last to leave. Don't let the door hit ya........

"Aw sweetie, how can the Democrats shut down the government when we have no control of it?"

Babe, you need to freshen up with a few civics' classes. See below.

"The Republicans currently control both chambers of Congress. But in the Senate - or upper chamber - they are short of the 60 votes needed to pass the spending bill, which gives opposition Democrats some negotiating power."

You don't need to shout honey, very impolite and rude. Control of the House and Senate does not mean a damn thing if you can't get passed the 60-vote threshold. If it was just simple majority there would be no shutdown and just another 3-month CR to fund the government. Remember darling, when your party held control of the entire government, they wanted to get rid of the filibuster so the minority would have no rights.

Your juvenile name calling does not bother me a bit or probably others you do it to on BWW. Who is your favorite rapist POTUS, is it Clinton? Sorry darling, you can't get me to go away. Your post was typical, when you are proven wrong, you change the subject and start name calling.

Haha. I didn't change the subject, I stated what everyone else on the correct side of history has said for the past week: We have no control, the GOP shut the government down and everyone knows that. Everyone. Real simple. Your small MAGAt brain doesn't comprehend things (you literally stated the election was stolen in 2020) and you don't matter, in any capacity, here. You don't travel to NYC, review shows, offer discounts, and the list goes on. Go away, don't go away, nobody cares. The fact that you quote me constantly shows how much space I take up in your head. It's a common theme with the other assholes on BWW. Enjoy jerking off to Mango Rapist and Charlie Kirk's ghost tonight tho. Gasp! Did a straight woman just say that?! I sure did, bitch.

And if you think my words are SO OFFENSIVE and HORRIFYING think of Katie Johnson, who was brutally raped at only 13 years old by the elderly pedophile you voted for to be in the highest office in the Nation. And I will scream at you whenever I want, you absolutely horror of a human being. Thank God your generation is dying out. Kiss Kiss.

"Haha. I didn't change the subject, I stated what everyone else on the correct side of history has said for the past week: We have no control, the GOP shut the government down and everyone knows that. Everyone. Real simple"

Wrong again sweetie. The Democrats were offered a clean CR for a couple of months which means that there will be no changes to current spending levels and they turned it down. That kept the government shut down. Is it that hard for you to understand?

"Your small MAGAt brain doesn't comprehend things (you literally stated the election was stolen in 2020) and you don't matter, in any capacity, here. " 

Nice try but untrue. If you can prove me wrong, I will stand corrected. One more time, election was not stolen. I believe every court case Trump filed in that regard was lost. I don't care about mattering here. Maybe you enjoy and get a thrill out of being a "keyboard warrior".

"You don't travel to NYC, review shows, offer discounts, and the list goes on"

Actually, I went to see "Just In Time", "SMASH" and "Maybe A Happy Ending" this year. I shared thoughts about them in PM with Jay Lerner-Z. (this can be proven). I am sure I mentioned it in other posts but not in the mood to do research. The year before I also gave my thoughts on "Stereophonic" which I loved. Not all of us can see as many shows as a lot of BWW posters.

"The fact that you quote me constantly shows how much space I take up in your head. It's a common theme with the other assholes on BWW."

I quote you constantly because I want to continue to inform everyone every chance I get you are a liar (Jay did not threaten to kill you) and your rant at me was delusional. Amazing, you never apologized for your lie.

"And I will scream at you whenever I want, you absolutely horror of a human being"

You lie about death threat and I am a horror of a human being -lmao. 

"Thank God your generation is dying out. Kiss Kiss."

Really, please tell me how old I am - ha ha.

"And if you think my words are SO OFFENSIVE and HORRIFYING think of Katie Johnson, who was brutally raped at only 13 years old by the elderly pedophile you voted for to be in the highest office in the Nation"

It was an allegation, just like all the Clinton allegations. You have no idea if it was true. We do know Clinton had oral sex in White House with intern who worked for him.

Historically a clean CR like the one the House did pass was the standard which the minority party (regardless of who it was) generally accepted to support comparable legislation in the Senate.

But historically we did not have a President who:

  • uniformly disregards spending bills Congress passes
  • uses funding to extort college campuses and law firms to do his bidding
  • makes highly questionable rescission decisions for funds Congress previously appropriated
  • f*cks the economy with his unilateral tariff declarations when only Congress is given that power, and who
  • failied to enforce the bi-partisan ban on TikTok that Congress passed and then subsequently negotiated its sale to one of his supporters

In short, Trump cannot be trusted to honor anything Democrats would support to fund the government and Republicans cannot be trusted to hold him accountable.

I'm not going to judge the Democrats harshly for failing to honor norms of the past when this President blasts them all to hell and almost everyone in his party and by idly as he does so.

Senate Republicans could have used the nuclear option" on the filibuster, as they have already done twice in nine months, if they truly wanted to keep the government open.

I actually don't care about that very much, since it was consensual, but I do care that Clinton lied under oath about that relationship to protect himself in a sexual harassment lawsuit. On that basis, I supported impeachment and removal at the time (which was admittedly easy because I hated him for other reasons) and I still do now (when those reasons have faded and now seem rather quaint).
