My company is closed on December 24th. It’s not like any work would get done anyway...

That’s good! No work gets done anyway, as others have commented, and it also does make life easier for people who have to travel or even just get their Christmas presents out. Plus it reaffirms what is our tradition, here, in our country.

We, the “little people”, have to work that day. Who else is going to pay the “chosen ones” their outrageous salaries? Give me a break. I’m so disgusted anymore with Washington. Fat a$$ hogs living off the scraps of the “little people”. Their day of reckoning will come someday and not too soon.

Good for him! People should be home with their families on Christmas Eve. And America will hardly be the worse off for these people not working a day.

By the authority vested in me as President by the Constitution and the laws of the United States of America, it is hereby ordered as follows:

Grant pardons to the two border guards. (would have been my choice)

Since this only affects the executive branch, I guess Congress will keep on working until 5pm on Christmas Eve.

Seriously though, does this effect the Post Office? Or will the last delivery day be 12/22?

Why not open the boarders for the holidays? Oh, that won’t be necessary as they never close? Never mind.

for reasons of national security or defense or other public need. Seems like this should be the requirement for staying open ANY DAY.

I wish the President could have put a provision in there that forced the congress to work on the 24th.
