  1. **Cackling** There's a partial gov't shutdown going on - but only DHS is affected. For the last 3 days, those ICE bozos have been working in subzero temps without pay. But they can't stop working because they're "essential personnel". Couldn't have happened to a better group of fash-ists.

  6. . Dictators don’t leave because they think the system is fair they leave when it’s forced. Trump is showing us which side he’s on. BELIEVE HIM AND REMOVE HIM NOW! #SNAP #Jefferies #MikeJohnson #GovShutdown #30DayStrike .

  9. . Here’s what nobody’s talking about. The government is shut down because they’re waiting for the Supreme Court to shut down the voter rights act. There, I said it. #GovShutDown #MikeJohnson #Epstein #SupremeCourt #VoterRightsAct .

  11. . Republicans didn’t “start” this shutdown they’ve just been continuing it. When you only work 5 days out of 80, that’s not a new crisis, that’s a lifestyle. #GovernmentOnVacation #AccountabilityPlease #MikeJohnson #Congress #GovShutdown .

  12. . Come on y’all this is how we fight back Step up it’s not gonna be fun. It’s not gonna be comfortable growth never is. We cannot keep getting up and going to work like nothing is wrong. #GeneralStrike #NoTaxes #GovShutdown #Epstein #Strike #FIGHTBACK #Resist

  14. «The choice is clear. We can resist Trump’s tyranny at some unknown future date — when his tin soldiers are stationed across the country, when the media has been totally neutered … and when the odds for success will be extremely difficult. Or we can stage that battle now, mustering all the liberty we have left. Democrats simply cannot pass a budget that pays for the destruction of the American Experiment.»

  16. . 🇺🇸 is addicted to the myth that everyone has to rise 🆙 for change. WRONG. Civil resistance studies prove it only takes 3.5% to force real systemic change. We already have the # ers. What we lack is coordination. #STANDUP #GeneralStrike #30DayStrike #Epstein #Medicaid #GovShutdown .

  17. Air Traffic Controllers - just may be the piece of straw that will break US Gov shut down!

    Over 13,000 Air Traffic Controllers are classified as essential employees and currently NOT being paid!

    A "slight increase" in sick leave at key FAA facilities that handle high-altitude traffic could cripple the US air travel system by limiting traffic at key airports.

    Premiums will more than double for millions of Affordable Care Act enrollees next year if Congress does not renew enhanced marketplace subsidies by year's end.

    DEMS do not cave to the GOP. Stand firm on healthcare.

  23. @dalfen

    The #GovShutdown is a preview of life after Dems win the House in the mid-terms.

    Trump will embrace shutdowns to stop normal governance - and things will only be done through corrupt favors and contacts.

    And the things he wants (military and ICE) will be exempted and taken from money allocated elsewhere.

    #Dems need to prepare now - and realize this shutdown is just the first testing phase.

  25. Herr #Drumpf hopes that #Democrats will quckly cave over #OMB threats to terminate #federalworkers if they don't vote to support #GOP budget...

    While I know not how threats are playing out across Congressionalandia, at least the #Maryland delegation seems not to be buying into it, with Sen. Chris Van Hollen calling the mass potential layoffs “likely illegal”

    Dem MD #Congressman #JamieRaskin Issued Statement on #DJT Administration's #Threat to CONTIINUE His Mass Firings of Federal Workers :

    “After illegally sacking tens of thousands of federal workers, Drumpf’s now trying to use the livelihoods of the ones who remain as coercive leverage while refusing to come to the table and hold serious #government funding negotiations with Democratic leadership. "

    #DJT has spent his time in office dismantling the federal civil service and destroying the critical programs that #Americans rely on. His lawyers should tell him that a #shutdown gives the administration no additional legal authority to justify the #lawless dismissal of federal #workers. "

    “Democrats won’t be intimidated into supporting #MAGA’s #government funding proposal which does nothing to protect the #HealthCare millions of Americans need."

    #Senate #MinorityLeader Chuck Schumer of #NY also commented “#DJT has been firing federal workers since day one—not to govern, but to scare … This is nothing new and has nothing to do with #funding the government. These unnecessary firings will either be overturned in court or the administration will end up hiring the workers back, just like they did as recently as today.”
