OAN reported the government is officially shutting down, after Democrats in the Senate refused to agree to a continuing resolution okayed by the House.

The website has not yet posted this, as of my posting, but the news channel has.

I hope the president goes through with the proposed idea of cutting thousands of government jobs, most of which, if not all of which, are unnecessary.

Only if the Trump admin denies "furlough back pay" and carries thru with his "RIF" idea...a couple of hundred thousand would be a good start (out of 3 million federal employees).

A DOGE “attack” needs to be made on Social Security software and processes.

More than half of the staff could hit the door and the system would work fine until Congress’ lack of interest would make it go bankrupt.

It’s always worked for the Donks before. Why would they change?

Four dead bodies in the street so far here. Many more to come.

Apparently FR’s multiple posting with just one [meatball] mouse click is still currently a thing.

[Given all of the hardware and software variations out there, it’s really amazing that Al Gore’s Internet works at all.]

Thank you, Al....

“Operational Status Important Message: We are operating under a shutdown furlough. Employees should report as scheduled. Check e-mail when you arrive for further instructions.”

Above means furlough folks go in, sign furlough acknowledgment. DOD employees will get paid regular paycheck after furlough is over.

Bottom line: paid vacation.

Your mouse clicker microswitch might be worn out...might be time for a new mouse. I have had that “switch contact bounce” issue before (causes double posts) and a new mouse/microswitch fixed it.

I’d like to thank the Democratic Party for their artful contribution to the elimination of a large number of worse-than-useless bureaucratic positions. Hopefully arrangements to begin negotiations to end the shutdown can be postponed... indefinitely...
