Representative Steve Womack (R-AR) claimed Thursday on “CNN News Central” that shutting the government “would be disastrous” to both the new Republican majorities in the House and the Senate and incoming President-elect Donald Trump.
Co-host Brianna Keilar said, “Your colleagues who are calling for a shutdown and there are some of them who are calling for a protracted one. You have Marjorie Taylor Green, Nancy Mace saying, shut the government down until Trump takes office on January 6. Your colleagues who are comfortable with the military not getting paid, it appears you’ve got multiple military installations there in Arkansas. You’ve got folks at Ebbing there in your district. What’s your message to your colleagues on that?

“...looks like meat is BACK on the menu boys!”
The government takes in $5t a year. It’s in debt over $35t and spiraling upward.
But Womack says spend spend spend!
Who were the 37 or 38 RINO’s that voted with the dems?
I can’t find a list.
They need to e exposed.
So does trump. It way he demanded 5 trillion to spend.
If it is a “continuing” resolution then there should no new spending items or spending increases - just fund it at current levels.
Loading it up with pork has nothing to do with avoiding a shutdown.
or just send stand alone bills funding each individual thing and make the Dems own the shutdown if they oppose them.
Too many in the GOP have their own hands in the cookie jar which is why that is not done.
These guys think were stupid.shut the sumbitch down.
Awfully nice of the RINOs to provide a SHOW OF HANDS for Musk to do his magic on...
CNN + GOP = BULLSHIT
Why? There isn’t another election for two years!
In office since 2010. Plenty of time to become ensconced in the beltway.
Nobody cares anymore if the government “shuts down”
It’s become a factor without a fear.
Gee...they all thought COVID shutdowns of mom and pop stores was great.
Not really.
...my thoughts exactly, this will be around the Demon-rats neck and EVERYBODY knows it.
January 6?
It’s already up to 36.246 trillion.
BS!
Trump wants to get rid of the debt ceiling and removed a balanced budget from the party’s platform. I suspect he knows better.
“A democracy cannot exist as a permanent form of government. It can only exist until the voters discover that they can vote themselves largesse from the public treasury. From that moment on, the majority always votes for the candidates promising the most benefits from the public treasury with the result that a democracy always collapses over loose fiscal policy, always followed by a dictatorship. The average age of the world’s greatest civilizations has been 200 years. These nations have progressed through this sequence: From bondage to spiritual faith; From spiritual faith to great courage; From courage to liberty; From liberty to abundance; From abundance to selfishness; From selfishness to apathy; From apathy to dependence; From dependence back into bondage.”
Alexander Fraser Tytler(1747 – 1813)
