At this point, if they do know what's coming down the pike, perhaps their only goal with all their blathering is to try to coax public opinion as far in their favor as possible before the hammer drops. Because the more believers that they have when it does go down, the more people that they might have to claim that they (the dems/globalists) are innocent.
Can only pray and hope!
What I’ve seen is that CS totally gave in on last shutdown, it lasted an hour with only Rand Paul filibustering (well intended if not for the ongoing coup etc) ... And then Obama military sequester was ended. All TBD of course ;)
Satan’s demeanor never changed when God caste him from heaven. I don’t expect the evil ones today to mellow. In fact they will be worse.
