If GOP Senators want to deal with the debt by playing around with federal employee holidays, then they shouldn't be half-assed about it. Make every day a holiday for non-DOD federal employees. That way they can't do any more damage than they have already done.

These senators are all a bunch of socialists. What ever happen to small government? Slash the budget. Abolish entire agencies. Stop spending money.

They should be tarred and feathered.

These RINOs and they compose the majority of Republican congressmen, are backstabbing traitors.

They also screwed Trump by approving Crazy Elizabeth Warren’s amendment to the defense budget bill changing the names of mitary bases, tossing a hot potato in Trump’s lap!

That amendment NEVER should have been approved and NEVER have bern put on Trump’s desk!

Even TOM COTTON approved Crazy Warren’s
AMENDMENT!!!

BASTARDS

Johnson, R-Wis., and Lankford, R-Okla. just a couple to spineless, gutless, GOP douchebags caving to the commie left Antifa and BLM. Very few Gop’ers with guts, all afraid they’d be called racists if they stand up for America. Call their offices let them know how you feel.

WTF! We already have black history month, Lincoln’s birthday because he freed the slaves, and MLK day. What a bunch of BS. These bastards are taking us over just as the progressives and commie left destroyed South Africa and Rhodesia.

Using the same logic of substituting a made up pandering black holiday for that of someone who did something significant in discovering America, perhaps we should exchange Christmas for made up kwanzaa.

If this passes, it will be seen as a victory for Antifa/BLM.

I’m for this, as I don’t want them to have another holiday. Most of us don’t get columbus day off anyway.

I just wish Juneteenth was in August.
