If we are going back, can we at least go back to when we vaccinated our kids, drank pasteurized milk, and inspected our food?

Huh well it turns out I heard from a few federal workers about this and well
"We civil servants organized to help our colleagues face the hardship of the shutdown, we put up with the pain and our only request was to not be betrayed like this. Trade our pain, make it count."

Basically Dems got us:
- Reversal of (some) RIFs ALREADY known as illegal
- No new RIFs for a whopping 2 months
- Guaranteed back pay that was already in statute.
Nothing on healthcare.
Nothing on impoundments.
Nothing on the rest of the illegal firings.
This was a capitulation.

It is not a victory to have our salary paid when it is already codified. Both Chucks should know better.

Dems just won a major set of elections, and Republicans are taking the blame for the shutdown according to polling. So why would we cave and give Republicans everything they want with no concessions? Would be such a waste of energy, taxpayer dollars, and political will. Please reconsider. #democrats

Prediction is that the gov will finally reopen after Dec 2nd. Right now Mike Johnson won’t open the House bc he’ll have to swear in AZ Democrat Adelina Grijalva. When he does, that’ll give the Dems enough votes to push for the release of the Epstein files.
