President Trump is making an announcement now or in moments regarding the government shutdown and wall funding. Use your favorite link. Me, I'm using XM Radio.

[Sacajaweau]

You want to know how this all plays out first. AND you want Nancy sitting right behind him.

[rlbedfor]

Do the emergency, start building, open up gov for three weeks, get funding. Simple. If lawsuits start, so be it.

What has the superbowl got to do with this?

[FourtySeven]

Wait so you’re *not* going into bankruptcy as we type this?

I thought all furloughed government employees were about to lose their houses and stuff like that.

[datricker]

I’m hearing no money for the wall, no declaration of an emergency. = No support from the base

He lost serious face in the SOTU Standoff this week with the Letter War between him and Nancy.

Now? Now if he loses again by reopening the government (even temporarily) while Piglosi doen’t lose a thing?

He will be in serious trouble.

[Right_in_Virginia]

Not going to happen.

Aviation and security. Per a caller to Limbaugh who claimed to be a TSA employee.

President Trump should give Anne Coulter a quick call and discuss his announcement before giving it. She would be a good, very vocal voice of reason to consider. She’s got a bigger platform than most of us, she won’t give him a pass if he folds. Same with Hannity and Rush. They’d be good for advice now at 11th hour before he walks into the Rose Garden.

Mercy. Who is the tall blonde reporter in the front row? I’m in love.

Avg fed ee $130,000 - a couple this morning on NPR - two fed employees, thats $260,000 a year (what family makes that) - they said they were going to the soup kitchen and they had no money for gas in the car.

He will be in serious trouble.

I ain't goin' anywhere. Trump is the only one who fights.

[Bullish]

This is pissing me off to no end. Pelosi must NOT be allowed any victory in any of this.

[Windflier]

If he gets a 3 week no money deal I don’t think that’s the disaster that some do. I think at the end of the 3 weeks, it will be apparent to all who was willing to negotiate and who was not.

It's already been apparent for three weeks. Another three weeks of dragging this out won't help to draw the distinction any better.

Watching Harris Faulkner and Martha MacCallum on FNC. They’re whining about “some people can’t live if they miss two paychecks”. I don’t recall that when Obama was shutting down FOREVER steel and coal.

Good plan, Sparky. Good plan. Let's pick up our marbles and go home. Pelosi is pleased with you.

[Reno89519]

Yes, absolutely. Trump’s “Read My Lips” moment.

[PghBaldy]

The FAA issue today was probably the final straw. This shutdown really cannot go on. The Rats play to win, and they will.

[angcat]

Sounds to me like the rich bitches are mocking the working people.
