The Presidency of Donald J. Trump: Harm to Ongoing Matter - Page 215 - Politics and Economics

A high number of air traffic controllers took sick days on Friday, delaying planes at LaGuardia and Newark airports, as well airports in Washington D.C. and Jacksonville, Florida...

“Presently, I view my position to be a hostage for a racist fantasy, which is what I view the wall as... I'm not going to work on both moral grounds and there are bad precedents being set in terms of mistreating workers and specifically federal workers," [an] air traffic controller added. “We’re taking time off, which is why you’re starting to see what is happening today... I’m proud our workforce flexed some muscle today... I want us to be willing to do it again when this tactic is used.”...

It was the Air Traffic Controllers who got this problem solved... why is the MSM giving the patently useless Donkeys any credit ???/?

Israel does not have a wall around its country border. He’s confusing reality with the movie “world war z”

If they don’t cave, then march and April will be shutdown months and we’ll have a new record for longest shutdown

Guys, trump just got bitchsmacked hard. There is no way he shuts down the government again in 3 weeks after this. These are incorrect takes. He either declares an emergency, or just lies about whatever “deal” eventually emerges and calls it a day. Most likely it’s the latter.

Trump: "I didn't lose, I just decided to end it because I'm very sensitive to the federal workers being hurt, but also I'm going to **** them again in 3 weeks if I don't get my wall"

lmao

If there is a Hannity indictment there will be no need for blue pills, I’ll spontaneously and continuously ejaculate.

The Dems are going to do a deal with money going to "border security" and Trump's going to say that's what he wanted all along and he pulled a quick one on the Democrats

Why wouldn’t she at this point? She won, flawless victory. The only question si whether there is not enough time, from a pure logistics standpoint, to go ahead with the normal date.

For free entertainment head over to Bogleheads where a bunch of MAGA turds are learning that their taxes are indeed going up. Hilarious.

Pelosi could wait for Donald to beg for his SotU.

D: Shutdown's over, so 29th for SotU?
P: What? Oh, I thought you said alternate plan for that.
D: I want dual session.
P: Well, we need to vote on that. But after gov going good again. Ask me in a week.
D: ...

once you take that off the table, there's just zero incentive to concede anything.

He’s also clearly not doing the national emergency. If he was going to do that, he would have done it today.

Saw something on Twitter about Nancy saying there is no SOTU until the government is fully open for good.

So Ted Lieu is saying if Stone goes on Carlson tonight, he’ll be waiving his 5th Amex. Rights. God, I hope so.
