Dem Sen Heard Yelling: ‘This Will Not Be A Normal Shutdown’ talkingpointsmemo.com/live-blog/se...
This is what we mean by "obeying in advance". Trump might declare a State of Emergency if the Dems don't cave on the Continuing Resolution? So what? He might declare it when he loses a case at SCOTUS.

Asimov is the answer to the trivia question: only author with a book in every major (100s) division of the Dewey Decimal System.
Right, but history remembers Asimov as the author of the Foundation and I,Robot series, not the author of a guide to Shakespeare or the Bible. Fame isn't about volume, it's about impact.
