it won’t work
Then I guess we’ll have to cut spending to balance the budget.
C’est la guerre!
To flip the script like this means they are desperate.
No, it won’t work.
More winning!
Oh! NOW they want to control the debt.
What timing!
Take the money from npr and dei garbage. There’ll be plenty when Musk gets thru.
What a tremendous opportunity to cut the “progressives’” pet program down to zero!
I didn’t go behind the paywall but in the first paragraphs I didn’t see mention of the fearful term “shutting down the government.”
Isn’t that what the democrats have in mind: “shutting down the government?”
I am scared half to death.
Trump wants to take an axe to the wasteful federal government. Shutting it down only helps him do it. If/when the shutdown is resolved all those Democrat federal workers will not be getting back pay for sitting on their asses like they usually do. If they blame Trump, well they didn’t vote for him anyway so no loss, but if they blame the Democrats for being stupid guess what. It is still a win for Trump.
I have exactly zero confidence in the Republican congress.
But silly stuff will not get past a POTUS veto.
He has the balls to take the heat, and turn the tables.
More insurrection from the turd rolling lefties.
That’s cute. Democrats are threatening to not fund the government. Oh please, stop, don’t do that. Lol
Medicare, DoD, SSI, Medicaid and interest on the debt are the largest expenditures. Unless the first four are cut, the rest is peanuts.
Sorry, at some point Trump very may well have some problems. He’s made a lot of promises to a lot of people and some of those promises are at odds with different groups and with each other. I get the Laffer curve and all but it’s going to be tough to lower taxes and reduce the debt. The Marxists don’t care about the country - only their power.
‘Please don’t throw me into that briar patch !!!’
Empoundment.
Oh no, don’t throw me into the briar patch. Shut it down, shut it all down.
[WAPO] Last week, the national debt hit the legal limit of $31.4 trillion....
