This shut down it back firing on the leftists. They are stuck on the island of illegal aliens or pay military. They have miscalculated the american response which wll not be a happy moment for them.the leadership of the dems is so bad they will not realise their mistake!! They will actually believe their own bs until the people demand the return full military operations. This is getting better each hour!!

My mom did the ‘physical therapy’ route because she lost her ability to walk....due to a brain tumor. 2 months later she was gone. The last month was awful.

No, people in IL will never figure out that Durbin is a “nutcase.”

Because a majority, mostly in Chicago, think and act just like him! Unfortunately, Chicago controls the state. Lot of good, conservative folks beyond Chicago. But, not enough to override their vote. (Dead or alive)

Yes, his days are numbered and they are few remaining. But, true to form, he won’t give up his seat and is too ill to vote on any issues...how self-serving.

“demonstration held by rabbis and other Jewish leaders in the rotunda calling for DREAMER protections”

So Israel has open boarders now?
Who knew?

The GOP has already stated they don’t have the votes to stop the shutdown by passing a CR.

Even though it is the rats who are shutting the government, Chuckie Schumer is blaming the Republicans

The Dems are walking into a Trump trap on this one. Most Americans do not think shutting the country down over DACA is a good idea. Trump will pound the Dems into the ground on this one.

I doubt the Left gives a damn whether the military gets payed or not. What would worry them thought is the thought of millions of union federal workers not getting paid.

Well you are right. I see no need to pay if people are sent home. They have the option to continue working. But if they don’t work I don’t want to pay them. It is not a paid vacation.The Dems are shutting the government down over Amnesty. I would urge them to let us know when they change their mind or its going to be a very long shut down. we don’t care.

As I understand it, those sent home during a shutdown are paid anyway, though not until the funds are approved in the new budget. The essential employees staying on the job will not be paid either until the new budget. The vast majority of people have little contact with the Feds. Entitlement checks still go out to the entitled, so citizens will see little effect in a shutdown.

The bigger gamble of the Left is that a protracted shutdown would encourage Trump to point out how well the government runs without the 90%+ of employees deemed non-essential & therefore accelerate the draining of the swamp with the hearty approval of the voters.

you are right but only if that is voted on in the aftermath. I am suggesting that we have no duty to pay for people not working. One thing that I think I am seeing is that this is going to be a very long shut down caused by the Democrats over Amnesty for illegal aliens and impacting out military readiness. Do they actually think that we are going to blink? That is a knee slapping belly laugh. Just let the people see that it makes no difference to our lives if the non essential government is not necessary!!_PLEEEEZE
