DeanObeidallah,

REMINDER to CORPORATE MEDIA: This government shutdown was because last week Trump DEMANDED the shutdown to defund the federal criminal prosecutions of him. That is 100% why MAGA is causing this. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-demands-republicans-shut-government-defund-criminal-prosecutions-rcna111365

Spartan_1986,

@DeanObeidallah "Because of its importance to the “safety of human life and protection of property,” many Department of Justice activities are exempt from shutdown restrictions under the Antideficiency Act. Critically, all criminal proceedings are exempt, meaning prosecutions will continue uninterrupted. Exemptions for the protection of human safety and property also allow federal law enforcement and national security agencies, including the FBI, to continue their activities as normal during a shutdown."

I think it shuts down the civil service. I don't think the courts are affected.

Jack Smith's group is funded, and they can't stop it.

That's no exaggeration. He really does want the government shut down to stop the justice system from charging him.
“This is also the last chance to defund these political prosecutions against me and other Patriots.” - Trump, 2023
The entire country must suffer because of his bloated ego. Again.

That's pretty close to a coup d'état: first eliminate the judiciary.
Well...he has experience there.

Hellbent,

@DeanObeidallah The insanity of the people Republican voters continually put in power has been on full display for enough election cycles to vote them out. It's well past time to blame all Republican voters for the state our country is in. Time for public shunning of all Republicans.

Huntn00,

@DeanObeidallah I wish Mastodon had more than a star for like because this would be an angry face. The touts their fiscal/moral responsibility, that is except when they want something, to invade someone, to avoid helping when funds should be spent, they say no. Or most sinister, when Master beckons because he’s got his tit in a wringer, his plan to defraud and dismantle the FedGovt is failing, so they fall all over themselves to be the good minions. This is their End Game. 🔥👹

Hm.

Just because Trump is crazy and the GOP house does what he says does not mean the GOP house is not independently crazy.
