    Who said anything about the FBI or intelligence agencies? The federal government is huge and there are many other departments. One federal worker estimated that only 12% do actual work with the rest spending time as place holders that only do what they are told to do and if they are not told to do anything, do nothing, and at our expense. Also about 40% working against this administration at all levels.

    We don't negotiate with extortionists or man-boys who have temper tantrums because it produces more of them. The Senate GOP can feel free. Trump has shut down the govt. He admits its his fault and it will stay his fault.

    You mean democrats will hurt government workers by refusing to negotiate while they play in the sun and spend time with their lobbyists. Trump is waiting for them to come to the table. They refuse.

    We don't negotiate under terrorist tactics. Your republican Senators may cower under this fat ass bully , but we stand up for ourselves. No wall, no deal. When the man-boy gets contained or slapped down , and a real adult shows up, we will talk.

    Not much for logic or evidence, are you? What are you doing at a debate site, without an understanding of either?

    I did not post this honey of a statement, "One federal worker estimated that only 12% do actual work with the rest spending time as place holders that only do what they are told to do and if they are not told to do anything, do nothing, and at our expense. Also about 40% working against this administration at all levels." I hope you feel less constipated now.

    It's essentially Class Warfare masquerading as something else. The affluent want their domestic servants, landscapers, other immigrants to do their nails and pedicures and they are allied with the government class. They serve each other, not us.

    Donald Trump is a symptom of a new kind of class warfare raging at home and abroad.

    Talking about the yellow-vest movement, French geographer Christophe Guilluy observes: “Immediately, the protesters were denounced as xenophobes, anti-Semites and homophobes. The elites present themselves as anti-fascist and anti-racist, but this is merely a way of defending their class interests. It is the only argument they can muster to defend their status, but it is not working anymore.”​

    That’s right. It’s class war masquerading as something else, but people have seen through the mask.

    Oh come on. The head rider shut down the rider in Trump's case so being fair so did the head riders, Ogama and Blip Cliton.

    That is why trump should increase his demands and should refuse to call another meeting.

    There is every reason to negotiate and the Democrats are refusing.
