They have been diluted to nothingness. If you have the right billionaires, judges, media apparatus, political sycophants to chip away at the things that truly made America great. The once great American empire is truly over. Bought and sold for parts.
This really screws up my scheduler- I had down January 20th as the date the wheels began to come off the American project, and now I've got to cross that out and move it up to this weekend!
They aren't raising the debt ceiling. Trump is trying to get that in this bill so that the debt ceiling is raised under Biden so he (Trump) can give his billionaire friends tax cuts again. This hurts the military and working families if not passed.
Trump said he rather be able to blame Biden for raising the debt ceiling instead of having to do it himself. What a great guy 😂 looking for a scapegoat instead of what is best for the country.

@@gregbeutel8434 'Shut it down' is just a tag line for these people. They have absolutely no idea what the consequence of that is. It's kinda funny and disturbing at the same time, isn't it?

Scuttling a bipartisan bill and cutting out the democrats parts and then expecting to get them to vote for it is insane, just like president elect Musk and his VP Trump/
Next month we can have what we need. No more democrats. This means no more funding the torture of cats and dogs at universities. democrats call those experiments.
federal holiday- they'll be paid later. Shut it down, I'm tired of their crazy actions as this Admin heads out the door. Musk is not the problem, the pork barrel bill was the problem. Congress giving themselves pay raise and more. Go Home.
It would be ludicrous to pass a 1500 page bill. Good thing someone took the time to find what was hidden in that bill, otherwise our money would be going to waste!
Congress first bill. Its time to make a stand to what is right and not be bullied or tricked into saying yes to a bill we want to say no to. Disaster assistance and the food are the only ones that sound Sensible for the "temporarily" funding. The rest sounds like a want instead of a need. 1, 547 page bill sounds like a trick to get people to just say yes in a short time so people can get some disaster relief assistance. Thats just wrong.
Remember politicians still get paid - but our military does not if shut down. That’s not how we should treat the military. So calling for a shut down is stupid. Pay our workers and fix it correctly going forward.

I think it’s funny how you guys voted for maga an against immigrants but yet let someone who is not even from here call the shots aka musk
Correction... The vote was against 'illegal' immigration.
@@melissaibarra9036 Good lady. Are you implying that Republicans are mere hypocrites? I am shocked and appalled.
It’s shouldn’t surprise anyone that since 2016 facts, science, law, journalism, history, integrity, character, morals, precedent, tradition mean nothing anymore. They have been diluted to nothingness. If you have the right billionaires, judges, media apparatus, political sycophants to chip away at the things that truly made America great. The once great American empire is truly over. Bought and sold for parts.
This really screws up my scheduler- I had down January 20th as the date the wheels began to come off the American project, and now I've got to cross that out and move it up to this weekend!
Mike Johnson a rhino ,,get rid of him
Really Republicans can't find anyone to take the job they can agree on!
He’s more of a meerkat.
Rhino?
The deal as full of pork barrel reckless spending. No..l
What budget. There is no money. Stop raising the debt ceiling.
They aren't raising the debt ceiling. Trump is trying to get that in this bill so that the debt ceiling is raised under Biden so he (Trump) can give his billionaire friends tax cuts again. This hurts the military and working families if not passed.
Then stop giving the US Treasury away to the ultra rich
Ok reatart
you have no idea how the american economy works. If there was no debt, our economy would absolutely crash.
Trump said he rather be able to blame Biden for raising the debt ceiling instead of having to do it himself. What a great guy 😂 looking for a scapegoat instead of what is best for the country.
Maybe electing a liar, felon, fraudster,
insurrectionist, sexual predator wasn't such
a smart move...?
He isnt even president, you crazy people.
You will get Sued like ABC , mind your words
Ya but Biden will be leaving office soon and we will have a real president.
Lol 😂 this is a good move
your right a democrat was never the answer dont worry trump will fix it!
We are 36 trillion in debt not counting soc sec, medicare etc...why do they nit understand that?
Good! Shut it down for good! I’m sick of paying taxes and only having morons make things worse!
yes only pay the billionaires
We are bankrupt. Reckless spending stops
Trump wants an unlimited debt ceiling. He's about to explode the national debt. Are there any real Republicans left to stop him?
Speak for yourself.
Bankrupt because the billionaires don't pay their fair share of taxes.
@chloewilliams1112 let's tax democrats at 500% since they love taxes so much.
Shut the government down they don't need a raise...
So Congress still get paid when the government shuts down.
Why do all the Democratic members of Congress us x? Why don't they go to Bluesky or anything else
Welcome to the Trump chaos
Oh no a government shut down!!! You mean workers won't have any income directly caused by unbridled government incompetency.
Shut it down we the people
MAGA WINS! NO MORE SOCIAL SECURITY!! NO MORE AFFORDABLE HEALTH CARE!! NO MORE VETERANS HEALTH CARE!! MAGA!!!
Yep . FIRED . FIRED . YOU NO LONGER WORK FOR US .
We can't fire Musk, because he never worked for us.
A few hours ago Trum took credit for the failure. Way to help American citizens right before the holidays, President Musk and VP Drumpf.
Actually Mr. Trump soon to be our new president is doing what he promised, eliminating bs spending of our taxpayers money.
Do you Even know what's on the bill, Did you read all 1200 pages
Congress was gonna give themselves a raise I heard no @@geo745don
@geo745don it got lost in the mail
Elon, trump’s boss… both of them could care less about America and the American people… as long as they satisfy their selfish egos and fill their own pockets!
Since Trump has come onto the political scene our country has gone insane! God what in the world will the next four years look like? 😓😓
Oligarchy
This what the next 4 years will look like
Looking forward to it.
The only people who aren't are government slaves that depend on the government to live and think.
You mean democrat BS being blocked? Americans are happy about that.
A house divided 😂
You do realize the incumbents aren't in yet lol. Swear people on the left are the least educated on politics. Kamala lost, Congress is Republican, and Supreme Court is Republican. Won't be much longer now.
Let it shut down!!! This government is unsustainable.
🤡
I don’t think you understand what a government shutdown is..or does…. Congress still get paid. But absolutely NONE of the federal government employees do. TSA at the airport, UPS, UPS, military members, border control all of those employees are now expected to work for free. A government shut down stops disaster relief and blocks any kind of relief for farmers.
There is no limit to stupidity.
Too many people would suffer only the wealthy wouldn't.
"President Elon Musk"
Right on!!
Shut it down. Vote out all Rinos out in the primary.
Vote these RINOs out in the next primary? So... you wanna shut it down for 2 years?
We need the RINOS they are the are the only smart ones out of the group.
you people who voted for trump are to blame for everything
Proudly voted for Trump. We need to get our country back on track!
How is that possible??? He won everything??? People are tired of demon-crates 🐍
@@DanealLamb you mean from covid, the yhing that Trump made worse by removing protocols placed by Obama to mitigate a pandemic
Meanwhile you are actually to blame 😂😂😂
Well at least we're not trying to start world war 3 like some special guy is right my special friend 😏👉🍻
To keep the government open there is NO WAY IN HELL that additional spending is required. Vote NO.
They still won’t get 10 votes by the Dems 😂
I guess there are 30 Republicans who do not kneel and pray to President Musk.
Shut it down until the budget is balanced.
And no pay for the politicians until then, too 👍🏻
Suspend or abolish the debt ceiling? That's what we voted for?😮
They're lying to you people
WHO DO YOU MEAN BY THEY ?
@@jessietinch9145 everybody
what a BIASED little skit.
good stop spending for the government
yay only only give tax cuts to rich and wealthy!! Yes cut money for cancer research and WIC. Stop giving away money to poor, only to rich yess
Anything that makes Mike Johnson's face do that can't be wrong. 😂
Shut it down
Elon Musk is the world's richest human being. Therefore, he gets to rule (forget about democracy). All hail Elon!!
Elon musk giving orders
SHUT IT DOWN!
For what reason?🤔
Not very practical. Kinda' like storming the Capitol.
@@gregbeutel8434 Trump the Putin agent right🤡
@@gregbeutel8434 'Shut it down' is just a tag line for these people. They have absolutely no idea what the consequence of that is. It's kinda funny and disturbing at the same time, isn't it?
Like a 9 y/o not getting what they want.
This guy is not in office yet where is Biden in this... He still here ?
Right on!!
The republicans control the house. After they pass the bill it will go to the senate. If the senate passes it President Biden will be able to sign it or veto it. Basically the house is holding it up because of musk and trump.
If I was Biden I wouldn't do or say a thing. Biden already had a bipartisan deal in order. America wanted Trump so deal with your own mess
Biden hasn’t been in office for 4 years
We are failing as a nation 😔. Our founding fathers are being let down by these politicians 😢. It's a shame. Greediness - selfishness - Careless = Government Fall 😢
Everything has an ending. Governments are born and they die. We just happen to be around to see this one first hand. Not pleasant, I know.
Imagine how much that $113.4 billion sent to Ukraine could’ve been used here
Congress dosen't run like your wallet... a Bill must pass 4 funds to be spent, the Ukraine funds were approved already, this Bill didn't pass 'cause it included increasing the debt ceiling 🤷♀️
Most of the "money" we sent to Ukraine was in fact weaponry which was produced decades ago.
Not much use here unless you can convince federal employees to accept 155 mm shells in lieu of paychecks.
FTA
President Musk, doing a bang-up job… 😂😂😂😂
Trump was for it before he was against it. 🙄
Scuttling a bipartisan bill and cutting out the democrats parts and then expecting to get them to vote for it is insane, just like president elect Musk and his VP Trump/
Cutting out the crap is neccessary
@@Ap_twshthen vote the nonsense in yourself don’t expect people to just fall in line and listen.
Next month we can have what we need. No more democrats. This means no more funding the torture of cats and dogs at universities. democrats call those experiments.
A democrat cult bill created with uniparty members behind closed doors is not bipartisan.
So there are 30 RINOS now we need to find out who they are
Shut it down until January 20th
Ok!!
federal holiday- they'll be paid later. Shut it down, I'm tired of their crazy actions as this Admin heads out the door. Musk is not the problem, the pork barrel bill was the problem. Congress giving themselves pay raise and more. Go Home.
So Americans voted for chaos when they voted for Trump.
Yes, what is the problem?
This American didn’t vote for tRump.
It would be ludicrous to pass a 1500 page bill. Good thing someone took the time to find what was hidden in that bill, otherwise our money would be going to waste!
@@FreddyConde it's vital to preserve it for billionaires.
Vote for stupid people get stupid events 😂
Congress first bill. Its time to make a stand to what is right and not be bullied or tricked into saying yes to a bill we want to say no to.
Disaster assistance and the food are the only ones that sound Sensible for the "temporarily" funding. The rest sounds like a want instead of a need.
1, 547 page bill sounds like a trick to get people to just say yes in a short time so people can get some disaster relief assistance. Thats just wrong.
What a much of bs! Federal works will get payed, they always do. Spend and spend money America doesn’t have!
@@curtbennett8402 just like most of the country. Spend, consume, spend, consume
we the people have spoken the dems don't get their way anymore honor your oath or get out of office!
Unfortunately for all of us it turns out trump rigged the election but the republicans won’t investigate further.
Remember politicians still get paid - but our military does not if shut down. That’s not how we should treat the military. So calling for a shut down is stupid. Pay our workers and fix it correctly going forward.
They do get back pay.
@@webportal6659 you can’t pay for food and pay your bills on back pay 🙄🙄🙄
Sorry no raise ! 😂😂😂😂😂 nowyou know how Americans fell I hope it’s last for a year 🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥🔥
Yes, watch the world slide into a depression when the United States defaults on its debt having been shut down for a year. Did you even graduate high school?
