All of them are cowards, but especially Schumer, Durbin, and Fetterman.

They're the leaders of the party and they've been primarily the reason the Democratic party is in the state it's in. Get the fuck out of the way and let the next generation lead, you fucking losers.
I don't know if they are cowards or not but...

In the event of a shutdown, the OMB would have wide latitude to decide what is deemed "essential" government work. With the president's blessing, Vought could determine that DOGE was doing essential government work and keep it open while other agencies did furloughs, for instance, making it easier for Musk's team of employees to access internal systems and operate freely.

That Trump's arguably chief lieutenant right now and collaborator Elon Musk has actually been expressing a pretty serious desire for a government shutdown, even as Trump has been saying that he does not want one. Not only does Musk want a government shutdown, an aim that obviously, as I just said, runs totally contrary to Trump, but it's partially because it would make it a lot easier to eliminate the jobs of hundreds of thousands of federal workers. Essentially, achieving what would be a permanent shutdown.

Musk is hoping that a government shutdown could allow him to more easily fire hundreds of thousands of federal workers, a potentially existential threat for many government agencies.

Might be worse if they voted against the bill.

This is blood-boiling. Charles Rogers was awarded the Medal of Honor in Vietnam after being wounded three times leading the defense of a position.

Google his name and the entry below comes up. When you click, you'll see the page has been deleted and the URL changed to include "DEI medal."

That is highly disrespectful. The government is going to far with the disrespect. I don't tolerate it as my grandfather was a Vietnam veteran serving in the Air Force.

Five Republican state senators in Minnesota are about to introduce a bill that would basically mark anyone who's criticizing or opposing Trump and his actions as "mentally ill". ...and this administration doesn't make a secret out of them wanting to get rid of disabled people altogether, so this should tell you where they wanna go with this.

Going to Harvard just got more affordable for most of America.

The Ivy League school is significantly expanding financial aid to make undergraduate admission tuition-free for families making up to $200,000 and completely free for families making up to $100,000. Families making more than $200,000 can also qualify for aid, depending on circumstances such as the number of children in college and amount of debt they carry.
