😒...No oversight, no consumer protection.

A nightmare scenario for U.S. is a repeat of 2008, but the Trump administration at the helm. Imagine a recession, then giving tech companies a bailout like the banks received. Wall Street vs. Main Street. I shudder to think.

In light of today's blockbuster news, go back and watch my interview with Cong. Eric Swalwell. While pundits were offering a dozen policy reasons for the government shutdown, Swalwell nailed it. “We have shut down the government to protect Donald Trump and how close he is to the Epstein Files.

It shows Schumer no longer has the caucus.
It doesn't actually matter if Chuck Schumer votes for this or not.

If he can't keep his caucus unified to protect healthcare for over 10 million Americans, he should resign as leader.

Remember the time Obama personally caught a fainting woman during his speech — rather than just blankly staring like a sociopath?

Character isn't something you tell people about.

😒...It took a long time for the Democrats to find their backbone, but they've finally found it.👏👏👏

It's Trump's 2nd shutdown with Repubs aiding in this fiasco. Trying to starve people and make it impossible to afford medical insurance? They're sick and inhumane.

The White House thought the shutdown would be quick. Now they’re frustrated.
White House officials, at the start of the shutdown, were certain the Trump administration was better positioned to battle the left during a funding lapse.

I'm shaking almost too hard to type. I entered SLC airport and heard screams and cries for help. I could see people gathered around, watching. I sped over to discover this woman face down on the floor, four grown men pushing her down, while she cried "HELP ME" and pled for her child.
