As I sadly grow more cynical with increased age, I wonder if this move towards reopening the government is at its core propelled by the fear of riots and mayhem if food stamps are really suspended for 42 MILLION people, an astonishing number.

Wait. Democrats said Republicans were to blame for the shutdown, now they’re mad at other Democrats for ending it?

Obese women of color gotta eat. Their little spawn need Skittles, pudding cups, chips, and sugary sodas. Somebody gotta pay.

How many people in Virginia work for FedGov?

Assuming the article is accurate, “more than 140,000” federal employees live in Virginia.

Another misleading headline. Omitting important details is a from of telling lies. Anyone reading these kinds of headlines on the fly is going to get the wrong idea.

“Turban Durban”

O’Hare might have lost a lot of flights.

I was thinking of flights via Milwaukee, South Bend, etc. instead.

The pressure was on to end the shutdown with the Holidays coming up. No other real reason to do so.

JACKIE ROSEN:

WHEN DEC END COMES-—SHE WILL HOLD OUT FOR LOTS OF ILLEGALS & OTHERS TO KEEP OBAMACARE & GET SUBSIDIES TO KEEP PAYING THE OUTRAGEOUS PREMIUMS.

USED COVID & PEOPLE NOT WORKING TO GET SUBSIDIES.
