How would you have handled negotiations differently with the Republicans in this situation? It didn't seem like Republicans were willing to listen at all to any sort of ACA subsidy renewal proposal and the House certainly would not have voted for it

These people have been voting for the same party for most of their life. They've allowed the party to become their identity. It's like rooting for your favorite sports team and now you're being told that team is the scum of the earth and you need to pick a new team

Trump won't be convicted of anything. He's too old and will be able to delay any trial of his. Vance on the other hand....

There's a ton of modifications Boeing needs to make to these commercial 747s. It was a really terrible deal Trump made during his first term. At this point the AF should be looking at a 777 or even an A350

That's kind of what they want us to do I suspect

What are your thoughts on states charging the operators of these flights, whom are private companies, with human trafficking? And how about victims families suing these charter operators in civil court?

There's also the fact that furloughed employees still have protections and are entitled to backpay if/when the government reopens

There are a couple things that concern me about passing this CR. The first is giving up Congress's power when it comes to tariffs. The second is Trump has already said he's going to impound some of the funds in the CR. So regardless if the CR passes he's still gonna do what he wants
