   @MariaHill This shutdown is about Kevin McCarthy's ego. When the headlines say he cannot get a deal, they leave out the part that he could get a deal with Democrats, but it'll cost him his Speaker position. He could sideline the wackos in his party, but instead, prefers to cling to the illusion of power, while kowtowing to the worst members of Congress. History will not be kind. Voters shouldn’t be, either.

     How do you negotiate with a group of clowns who don't even know what they want?

     In previous shutdowns, there was a disagreement between a Republican Congress and a Democratic White House, or a Democratic Congress refusing to fund TFG's border wall.

     Biden and House Republican leadership agreed on funding months ago. The bipartisan Senate will go along with it. It's House Republicans who can't agree with each other.

     Vote them out in 2024. All of them.
