Isn’t it interesting how willingly Congress gave over the power of our purse to the Executive Branch, robbing all citizens from our representatives having a vote on this appropriation. No vote, no voice. Taxation and spendthrifting without representation.

Absolutely. If Congressional Republicans had jobs in the real world they would have all been fired years ago.

There is no doubt about it. This is a Republican shutdown. Speaker Johnson is keeping the House in recess for another week . American taxpayers are paying members of the House $174,000 a year, and they are doing nothing on orders from Republican Speaker Johnson. Vote them out ! 🫩

I just called Mike Bost Office in Washington DC. Told his answering machine, Republicans costing me over three hundred dollars a month. I don’t want to pay higher medical costs. And to get back to work. It’s not funny how these Republicans are ignoring all of us. It’s flat out criminal.
