We are now going on Week two of Chuck Schumer theater and a government shutdown. Just yesterday afternoon, Senate Democrats have once again voted against reopening the federal government.
However, they will continue to blame Republicans for keeping it shut down. You see how this works? The Senate voted 49-45 against H.R. 5371, the House-passed continuing resolution. Why? Because Republicans don’t want to fund a LGBTQ+ agenda in the Balkans, and “climate change” initiatives, to name a few at the steep price tag of $5 billion dollars. Let’s not forget the trillions Democrats want to fund healthcare for illegals. They are digging in their heels. THIS is why Americans are losing their jobs. Cryin’ Chuck continues with his Kabuki:
Stop the political grand standing and pass the clean CR as you have done on many occasions in the past. Willingness to inflict the pain of a shutdown on our nation is not leadership.

Did AOC approve this message, Charles?
Speaker, Mike Johnson is not amused, nor is he messing around:
Chuck Schumer has been in Congress for 44 years. He was first elected to the House in 1981, just for reference. I was nine years old. I was in the third grade when Chuck Schumer came here to Congress. Throughout his entire career, he has been very consistent about the necessity of keeping the government open, until just now.”-Speaker, Mike Johnson, R-LA
Yes, why now, Chuck?
Flashback to March 13th, 2025:
While the CR bill is very bad, the potential for a shutdown has consequences for America that are much, much worse. I believe it is my job to make the best choice for the country to minimize the harms of the American people. Therefore, I will vote to keep the government open and not shut it down.”-Chuck Schumer
The most vulnerable Americans. Schumer said this himself. Meanwhile, in Napa Valley:

But they’re busy fundraising whilst sipping the Shiraz. Kabuki with a shot of tone-deaf:
Senator Gillibrand “ let the American people eat cake”

The gaslighting is real. The Democrats could solve this easily. They don’t want to. And now, they have the octogenerians camped out in front of Rachel Maddow and MSNBC thinking they are going to lose their health care. Just in time to make those holiday get-togethers real awkward.
I don’t want to bore you with the fact that Schumer said 100 times, ‘You should never close our government. But Schumer is a weakened politician. I mean, he’s going to finish his career as a failed politician, as a failed politician. He’s allowed the radical left to take over the Democrat Party.”-President Donald Trump
Schumer capitulated to someone. And now, he is stating that Republicans are not willing to negotiate. Trump is not willing to negotiate, they say. How is it the President can negotiate a deal between Israel and Hamas but not the Democrats? Trump negotiated with terrorists, for crying out loud. This, though the Democrats and liberals alike, will deny it, is very telling. They are so blinded by the fact that Donald Trump is President again and making progress in so many ways, they want to thwart any progress, if they have the ability to do so. This is a testimony to how much they hate any opposition. And, to how much they truly hate some Americans. It’s pathetic and it’s a damn shame.

Keep with the theater, Chuck. We’ve seen it all before. We can only hope for more dismal approval ratings and ticket sales to plummet before you and your band of feckless idiots do even more damage.
