... and don’t stop until the $3+ trillion, 80%+ unconstitutional, rogue, totalitarian, and anti-American portion of the federal gov’t has been dismantled.

They should have a Million Man March, where a million federal employees are marched out.

Lay them off Friday afternoon and they cry all weekend on camera and to their Democratic Senators.

The further the dims get backed into a corner the more their backs will bow up.

It is going to take 5 or 6 additional Democrats to make a surprise commitment to open the government. Not only will they be doing the right thing they will be saving the other democraps from themselves for the time being.

Does anyone recall what it took to end the 35 day shut-down under Trump his last term?

The President’s post signals that these changes may not simply be temporary austerity measures, but irreversible restructuring.

Irreversible restructuring will require Congress to act. The shutdown will pass sooner or later. In the long run, if Congress authorizes X and appropriates money for X, then X is going to happen.

Congress needs to revert to regular order. This is what Mike Johnson is attempting to do in the House. Let the authorizing subcommittees and committees do their jobs. That's ultimately where agencies are realigned.

But if the big spenders in the Senate continue to filibuster anything substantive in order to block any and all reform, everything collapses into CR's and massive omnibus appropriations bills. The authorizing committees are cut entirely out of the action. That's been the problem for over 20 years now.

They were 5 Democrat votes away from opening last time. 5 votes out of all those Democrats. That was with 3 Dems voting yes. Yet they and their lapdog press will still lie and claim Republicans are keeping it shut.

IIRC, only 3 Republicans voted no so they wouldn’t have been enough to end it anyway.
