These stunts should be ignored by the media now. Stop giving the clowns the attention they seek. It is every single bloody time. I’m not even American and still I’m sick of hearing about the idiocy of this small group of extremists.

Thank fuck. My wife and I have two mortgages currently because I’m transitioning out of the military and these fuckwits were going to cause us problems.

Glad they can do the bare minimum of their jobs.

I’m glad for all the federal workers and military who’ll get paid on time. I know that in a shutdown, they’ll eventually get paid what they missed, but most people can’t go much more than a single missed paycheck (if they can even do that).

But they’re just kicking the can down the road until November. I guess it’s good that they’ll all have more time to negotiate (“negotiate”), but it’s not like these people like Gaetz and his cronies aren’t doing to pull this again.
