Another Government Shutdown Thread

[BigOrangeMojo]

Because it isn’t budgeted for such use. Maybe Chuckie should allow a vote on funding?

I was asking a rhetorical instead of an actual question....

No offense man but that's absolutely inaccurate. If it was, Trump wouldn't have to be literally begging for support in Iran right now.

And he also wouldn't be doing the same pathetic kowtowing to world leaders we made fun of Obama and Biden for. I voted for him three times and regret the third vote greatly. I didn't vote for a weenie that literally pulls the chair out for another world leader.

The longer you argue over how imminent the threat is the closer they are to having a button to push.
Who are the straits most important to?

Why arent the $11.20 in security taxes paid per roundtrip ticket being used to pay TSA employees?

Why not put tip jar before TSA for TSA, I’d drop a $20 every trip through to speed things up

China? And if the CA oil fields were pumping and the shutters CA refining units were to come back on on line, who could solve their energy shortage?

And europe. Japan.
Ca. is going to fight against it. Lawfare to stop trump at all costs. Even things democrats have said they would do themselves.
Just as a bit of unrelated thought but it says a lot about the democrat party. When was the last election the democrat voters actually picked their presidential candidate. Hillary screwed Bernie with super delegates. Clyburn rescued biden from 3rd or 4th place , and nobody voted for kamala. They elected mamdani in n.y. They endorsed his warmth of collectivism. Hard to trust them on just this, let alone their history of proven lies and propaganda.

Trump can invoke the National Security act for strategic reserves and enough politicians pockets will get lined that there will be opposition posturing but he won’t be stopped

They are also saying no imminent threat.

what does it actually pay for then?

Trump asked Germany to help keep the Strait of Hormuz open. They asked him, what's 5 + 4. After several minutes, and consulting with Imcompetemt Pete, he said "9". The Germans replied, "Exactly."

This will bite them in the ass so fast. I think back to 2018 when they laughed at Trump when he told them they would be dependent on Russia for natural gas. This time will be much worse for them.
