Good. They'd better stick to their guns this time. Republicans do every time and get exactly what they want when they are the minority.

The news is a joke. I dont watch meet the press, but my wife had it on briefly this morning and the discussion was the shutdown. They all sat there and gave zero reasons why it is acceptable for them to do this and even used a story about how it effects real Americans who live paycheck to paycheck. Not one of them stated anything about how the Republicans are about to remove billions from health care or any other valid argument for why it is needed. It's sad that the news is controlled this much.

Doge and Trump have been working hard at shutting down everything the government does that actually serves the citizens despite having the funds. But at the same time they're spending trillions in making the country a fascist nightmare with secret police and concentration camps.

What's the downside to a shutdown?

I'll believe it when I see it, and I don't think there's any fucking way we're going to see it.

Props to them if they can keep the turncoats in check and actually stick to their guns.

That said, I'll believe it when I see it.

Yeah right.

The only question is which specific excuse(s) the Democrats are going to trot out after they do the bidding of their wealthy/corporate donors and cave. Again.

The democrats are just asking for all the massive cuts to CRITICAL infrastructure to be returned back to the american people. We PAID for these programs and we DESERVE to have medicaid, better healthcare, and lower taxes. Republicans don't care about the american people, otherwise they would have voted AGAINST the BBBA.

Considering Schumer was on television today waxing poetic about how he wants to have a "serious negotiation" with Republicans, once again signaling he's willing to sacrifice everything for nothing, I'm 99% certain they'll puss out yet again, giving these fascists everything they want.

If they dint oppose the administration at every turn, they are complicit

Republicans will just use this to dismantle more of the government while blaming the democrats and the democrats will walk blindly into this because people who will never vote for them can’t see the truth.

I'll believe it when I see it.

I guarantee they'll roll over and play dead even though it's just about saving some neutered nonsense of what's left (not much) of the ACA.

The government is broken

I really don’t get it. Even GOP has the majority why headlines says it’s up to Dems?

I am expecting Chuck and Jeffries to comply in advance.

Do not fail on healthcare!

roll over!! Whos a good boy?

We'll see if the cave after like a week. Their pockets arent infinite like the republicans but this isn't asking much of them.

Worthless Democrats are conspirators.

It’s almost like you don’t understand that America is a Uniparty imperialist system masquerading as a two party republic

Oh this time the AIPAC zombies are actually going to do something? I’ll believe it when I see it

It has been nine brutal months for congressional Democrats.

Oh please.

Sure, Jan.
