House Minority Leader Hakeem Jeffries: "Extreme MAGA Republicans are driving us to a government shutdown."

[struth]

Good thing we're talking about budgets then, right?

Yeah so only two branches are involved. The dems run 2/3rd of the process

And can’t get it done. They can’t lead

Heck we aren’t even talking about a budget…they can’t get that done

 

[MarathonMike]

President Musk's shutdown harms military families right at Christmas!

The "Extremists" were just swept out of power in the last election. MAGA!!!

 

[MarcATL]

Mr. Jeffries got it half ass backwards.

Trump and the Republicans have a mandate, and the Democrats are trying to force their agenda in the Lame Duck Session instead of working in a Bipartisan manner to bring the taxpayers the Trumpamania they voted for.

If they truly had a mandate, they'd be able to do it on their own.

Wouldn't they?

 

[MarcATL]

Congress doesn’t deserve a pay raise and they have to live with Obiecare for insurance. There’s two.

Those two don't add up to the funds you people are shutting down.

Doesn't sound like you have anything there.

 

[MarcATL]

They have had a full year to pass a budget. THey wait until two days before the deadline to drop a 1,500 page Continuing Resolution? That kind of garbage and nonsense.

So basically, nothing.

As I suspected.

 

[MarcATL]

Federal workers get a vacation until the next Senate is sworn in.

I'm terrified.

You're playing with American citizens ' money.

Keep it up.

 

[MarcATL]

Then no one needed to listen to either, did they?

Why do you suppose they did?

Corruption

 

[Zincwarrior]

oh Seriously. You're right there the minute that piece of bs propaganda starts, aren't you. Proving AGAIN AND AGAIN..you guys don't have a honest or creative bone in your bodies. LOLOL

Let me remind you sir....we all know that Biden did not run the country for even a moment of those 4 years. And Obama's legacy, his credibility, his alleged reputation is SHOT.

Trump shutdown starts NOW.

 

[DGS49]

Each time this happens, Congress and the Media graduaIIy come to the realization that the American public doesn't really give a shit if the Government shuts down.

First of alI, it doesn't actually shut down. The people who are not just slugs stiII go to work. Second, it doesn't cost them a dime. When the budget passes, they get back pay for the hours they didn't work.

The MSM wilI beat the bushes for pathetic souls whose government goodies are delayed, turning their lives, at least temporarily into a living hell. Maybe a shutdown is what we aII need.

 

[Missouri_Mike]

Those two don't add up to the funds you people are shutting down.

Doesn't sound like you have anything there.

You asked for examples I give you some. Fuck off with your bullshit.

 

[MarcATL]

You asked for examples I give you some. Fuck off with your bullshit.

Like I said, you have nothing.

Thank you.

“I’m not just a no, I’m a hell no.” he says, after saying that the Musk-Johnson proposal is not serious.



One thing you can expect whenever Republicans are in charge are government shutdowns.

[OKTexas]

Such as what?

Can you cite three specific things?

Giving away RFK stadium, congressional pay raises, 2 new museums and paying everything to rebuild the bridge in Baltimore. And a shit ton more.

[para bellum]

List some of this garbage and nonsense you speak of.

Congressional pay raises
NFL stadium in D.C.
$8 Bn for a New FSK Bridge
$10 Bn in new farm subsidies
72 pages of "Pandemic Preparedness" policy
17 pieces of Commerce Legislation
$130 Bn to extend the Farm Bill
$100 Bn for FEMA
...

Well that's just a lie, the NDAA was passed a while back.

[OKTexas]

One of Republicans' biggest pleasures, and pastimes, is slugging away at our veterans.

It will have zero effect on any vets, the funding was passed a while back. You freaks have really short memories.

Wouldn't they?

Not when they don’t have the votes yet. They haven’t taken office. Are you that stupid?

 

[OKTexas]

No idiot. Trump will bear the blame since there was a bi-partisan bill agreed to that he and President Musk shut down.

It was negotiated by the leadership without input from the rank and file. They are violating house rules by trying to push it through without a 72 hour period to read the bill. Plus it had a butt load of unnecessary spending. They piled in a bunch of crap that would never pass using regular order.

I'm sure Jeffries knows that The New GQP™ actually WANTS chaos & disruption, no matter who or what is damaged by it.

That's what blind, manipulated rage makes people do. They want everyone else to be miserable and bitter, too.
