"Working people are done with performative solidarity," said Rep. Delia C. Ramirez in response. "Either you stand with us against the Republican CR, or you stand with the Musk-Trump authoritarian agenda."
Are you guys idiots? The republicans are already fucking up the government, cutting left and right without regard to laws and congress. So you want the democrats to shut the government down to protest … what exactly? How does this help? This basically takes the narrative that fucked up government programs are now the D’s fault when the R’s are currently 100% in control.
Too many people here are like kids just wanting to break things. I’m pissed too, but shutting down the government would be the stupidest thing Schumer can do right now. The R’s don’t care if you shut down the government. They’d be happy. They’d then blame all the liberals for social programs that wouldn’t be funded and broken things. If you want to negotiate and play hardball, find something they care about and use that. This aint it.
You are actually brain dead and clearly do zero research at all. This budget literally codifies all these bullshit changes into law and allows the president to do whatever the fuck he wants with the budget. It is congress’ responsibility to decide what gets spent where and how. The president can’t just hire a random asshole to make government cuts.
You want to hand him that right on a silver platter for what? Because we’re already fucked and a government shutdown means people don’t get paid? The union that represents the federal workers came out and DENOUNCED this spending bill. The families directly affected by the shutdown want to shutdown the government.
Go read a book or something before coming to the big kids table.

The GOP is the one shutting down the government by refusing to put forth a budget that doesn’t include its actual dismantling.
