Another Government Shutdown Thread

Wonder if they realize that the more they over claim that the Dems' goal is to fund health care for illegals, the more suspicious people are of that claim.
Only folks with very low intelligence believe anything a presidents sock puppet press secretary says, especially when its a woman.



Can't get blue font to work for the woman comment..

Bucking for Frank's VN Susan B Anthony award?

Spoiler alert: He never gives you all the Frank bucks. It's always "I'm a little short this month. Can I make it right next month?" Then he disappears like a fart in the wind.
 
Yes.

Context.

The GOP is taking the destination of a sliver of the money and characterizing it ALL as going there.
.
Thats like saying that ALL of Trump’s money came from mortgage fraud when it was only a small part of it.
If CNN is showing what you are asking for and it’s in black and white for you to read you have a problem
 
Well the true context isn't that the Dems want to protect anything. They want changes to law that was passed. And in that demand they want to include healthcare for noncitizens. They are lost. How many times do I have to deal with Trump bc you idiots can't understand how the majority of this country feels about money going to non citizens, open borders, and open sanctuary? Let me help your independent brain out. You will lose until you understand the American public is pissed about open borders and the extreme left embracing of everyone is whatever they want to identify as and you have to accept it

Taxpayer money isn’t going to healthcare for “undocumented migrants.” Stop the gaslighting, dems.

He wanted to be called the secretary of war. He isn't extreme but, like every single Trump henchmen, is a buffoon and is way in over his head.
"Way over his head". Right.

Rep. Maxine Waters Admits Dems forced government shutdown to Get ‘health care for everybody’ — including illegal immigrants​


WASHINGTON — Longtime Rep. Maxine Waters (D-Calif.) acknowledged that her party forced the government into a shutdown on Wednesday in order to secure “health care for everybody” — including illegal immigrants.

Waters, 87, was questioned outside the US Capitol Tuesday about Democrats’ opposition to a stopgap funding bill in both chambers of Congress that would have kept the government’s lights on until Nov. 21.

“Are Democrats demanding health care for illegal aliens?” asked LindellTV reporter Alison Steinburg.


“Democrats are demanding health care for everybody,” Waters responded, hours before her Senate colleagues blocked the spending measure.

“We want to save lives,” she added. “We want to make sure that health care is available to those who would die not having the help of their government.”

“So you’re good with a government shutdown, even if it means giving health care to people who aren’t American citizens?” Steinburg followed up.

“That’s what you’re pushing on,” Waters shot back. “You’re standing here and you’re trying to make me say that somehow we’re going to put non-citizens over Americans.

“Quit it! Stop it!” she fumed. “This is the kind of journalism we don’t need. You’re divisive.”

Jeffries, in a viral interview with CNN anchor Jake Tapper, also said it was a “lie” that Democrats want to give away health insurance benefits to illegal immigrants.

“But what you support does bring back funding for emergency Medicaid to hospitals, some of which does pay for undocumented immigrants,” Tapper pushed back.

Between fiscal years 2017 and 2023, “federal and state governments spent a total of $27 billion on emergency Medicaid services for people who were ineligible for full Medicaid coverage because of their immigration status,” the Congressional Budget Office found.

Provisions in Trump’s One Big Beautiful Bill Act will eliminate non-citizens’ access to the services starting next year.

 

Dems Mocked after gov’t shutdown Livestream Gets Only 400 Viewers: ‘Party of 18% approval and sinking’​


House Democrats struggled to attract eyeballs to a livestream meant to rally the party faithful over the government shutdown — which at times drew only a couple of hundred viewers, despite a cast featuring some of their most charismatic members and top influencers.

In what was originally supposed to be a 24-hour stream from 2 p.m. Tuesday to 2 p.m. Wednesday, House Democrats took turns trying to blame Republicans for the partial government shutdown, which began at 12 a.m. Wednesday.

These shutdowns have worked fabulously in the past, just look how much our debt dropped after previous shutdowns....
The Republicans suffered the blame for the last shutdowns and The Democrats appear to have learned nothing from it. They more the Democrats speak about the shutdowns and try to explain their position, the more they own it. This comes as the Democrats are polling at a record low approval rating.

Hegseth is a textbook beta. Blowhards aren't alphas
This isn't necessarily any kind of defense of Hegseth but that's not necessarily a true observation. The whole concept of the saying "It ain't bragging if you can back it up." is predicated on being a blowhard doesn't by definition exclude you from being a BA. (Ali comes quickly to mind)

I'm not a fan of the self-aggrandizing approach as I personally find it off putting but I can acknowledge there's been plenty of people that are quite legit but also more than happy to tell everybody about that being the case.

We can safety assume that VN is full of beta’s?
Don't know. I personally only know one poster who occasionally comes into this sub. He isn't a beta. Can't speak for anyone else with any certainty. I do know from experience that blowhards aren't generally alphas, but you can never really no anyone for sure from their personas on an anonymous message board
