Confused Democrat lawmakers were left sitting idle on a military bus near the Capitol after President Donald Trump postponed their seven-day foreign trip as the partial government shutdown continues.
Photos shared to social media purport to show Democrats on a U.S. Air Force bus traveling to the airport when they received word that their access to a military plane had been blocked:
...
House Members sitting on an Air Force bus b/t the Longworth and Rayburn House Office Buildings waiting to see if they are still going overseas after Trump cancelled the trip.
...
The bus went around the block and back to the Capitol where members eventually got off.
...
Bus circled around and dropped lawmakers off at Capitol. Rep Adam Schiff came off “I don’t have any comment”

(Many twitter pictures and videos)

Here's one explanation: when courts began to rule in favor of mandated busing across district lines - in order to achieve their idea of racial integration - many districts retaliated by creating special adjacent "magnet" schools (1-2 miles away). In this manner, they were able to re-route out-of-district students away from their natural geographic student body, and also utilize a nice Orwellian twist by labeling them as magnets. That is, the bused in students were not only getting equal treatment, they were getting special treatment.
In Long Island, this program was called Boces, and the short buses were called "Boces buses". The buses were short, of course, because the number of students to be routed away from the main student body was relatively small compared to the majority group. To this day, Boces still attempts to frame its existence as some kind of positive program, when in reality, it's always been a subtle means of preserving the demographic status quo of effected school districts.

As a Calif native, how do I know all this? Because my wife is an Ivy league New Yorker from Nassau county. And between her and her friends from home, the epithet "Boces Bus" still remains in effect.
” He has been offering terms for repairing and fixing our immigration mess; but, the Dems won’t even come to meet him at the WH to discuss the matter.”
Yep. Compromise is just not part of their nature. The only thing that will get them to the table is when they realize they have no other option.
Chucky Schumcky and those glasses, what a joke. Too bad Nasty Stretch Pelosi and Chunk FU Schummer. My heart bleeds.....
Is that Clint Howard? Creepy.
$1.50 to go around the block.
Excellent point.
Lumbergh! Uuuhhh... yeaaah... that would be greaaaat.
I wish I could have overheard the conversation on that bus when they found out what was happening. LMAO.
“Trump should say that the money saved on Nancy’s trip could be redirected towards funding for the wall. One is necessary and the other is just a waste of money and Air Force resources.”
Yes! Redirect the money and say something like:
It would be immoral to spend funds on a PR trip while so many government employees aren’t receiving a paycheck due to Pelosi not being willing to fund the wall and defend our borders.
“While they had them loaded why didn’t they drive to our southern border and toss them over the fence?”
The bus should’ve driven to the airport and parked at the Jet Blue door to the terminal.
“We are living in an awesome time.”
I’m no spring chicken, so I feel fortunate to have been around to experience the last three years.
Pelosi tries to head out on globe trotting junket while workers go without paychecks.
Stay home and do your job Nancy.
“They were visiting troops “
I don’t believe that for one minute. Pelosi pulled that line out of her ass, impromptu, when PDJT shut her down.
The wheels on that bus ain’t rolling round and round . . .
That drunk pilot in the movie, Independence Day, he is available to fly the Democrats. What was his classic line, “Up yours, a$$holes!”
Love it!
Snowflakes’ reaction on twitter is that Trump put Pelosi in danger by publicing the trip... No, thay aren’t right in their heads LOL!
you're
I would have let them get on the plane and sit there on the tarmac for a couple hours with no air, water or working toilets before making them get off!
Ah, Clint Howard.....
How much do you tip a chamber maid?
$5!!!!
I hope that bus got disinfected afterwards.
