Comment on More lawmakers say they're rejecting paychecks as government shutdown drags on
realcaseyrollins@narwhal.city 18 hours agoHow many bothered to negotiate anything at all before hand, knowing their attempts to steal Americans healthcare wouldn’t just be agreed to?
Pretty sure all of them did
How many Republicans LEFT TOWN knowing there would not be a settled budget.
This has nothing to do with Democrats shutting down the government to be honest.
Kicking the can down the road so they can keep pushing their “every American gets punched in the face” budget bill without any compromise does fuck all but give them more time to try to shift blame as they do nothing to compromise on their “fuck Americans, the wealthy get all the money” bill. It’s straight extortion.
You're not coming off as a particularly rational person so Imma tap out of this discussion.

Pretty sure sound alike you’re making an assumption. One you’d be entirely wrong about. They slapped this garbage bill down, said vote this diarrhea through or we blame you for shutting down the government.
You think Republicans leaving town before even discussing the budget bill with the Democrats has nothing to do with the Republicans shutting down the government?
Or are you on the Republicans are blocking the release of the Epstein files train, by dismissing can Congress now that they have enough votes? At least you’d be right about Republicans protecting pedophiles at the expense of a functioning government.
And you leave because I made sense and you have no rebuttal.
