Jeffries: In our nation's history, 25% of our nation's debt was accumulated during the four years of the former president, 25%. How dare you lecture America about fiscal responsibility ever.

The Republican House has the Majority.
The Republican Speaker controls the Gavel.
Republican’s have rejected a bipartisan bill and chosen to put forward policy that prioritizes pain over the American people.
The shutdown is on Republicans!

Spent the day talking to Europeans, and nobody can think of any precedent for what Musk just did to the US Congress. There is no businessman with that much power, the power to stop a routine spending bill, anywhere else in the democratic world.

So my take on King Elmo ordering the government to shut down is that Dems better get their freaking messaging together and make sure everyone in the country knows who's responsible.

The United States has a population of 346,148,608 people at this moment. Nearly 350 million and this is the guy we’re inaugurating as president? These are the people being nominated to “lead” our nation? We have a lot of work to do to fix a system in which such reckless incompetents rise to the top.

To underscore: Kennedy Jr. will actually kill people. Mostly children. And only a contemptible monster like Trump would position him to do that and think nothing of it.
