Trump budget chief at a loss on military pay

Yes, we admit it when our imperfect human leaders are wrong.
Our opposition should try that kind of candid honest approach.

 

In 2013? What office was he holding. Do tell and remember you are under oath Counselor.

 

The Schumer Shutdown is incredibly stupid politics for the new DDP.

 

Note Egoboy trying to look for an out. Trying to say some only some Reporters said the shutdown is the Demos fault. Not the entire organization.

He still hasn't figured out why the Editors didn't retract the stories.

Damn those Headlines!

 

There is zero requirement that a politician actively hold office in order to qualify as a politician.

 

Editors don't retract opinion pieces because they are opinion pieces and not something which requires a retraction (unless factually incorrect or objectively offensive).

 

Couch Potato Politician, huh. LMAO.

Note that my brethren of the Right. The Counselor cannot admit to the truth.

 

Here is how simple it is for you Egoboy. Link up my post. Rather than parse statements. Your not as good as Hillary.

 

He was actively being interviewed by nationally televised media for his opinion about political events like the government shut down.

That makes him professionally involved in politics. A politician.

 

Then why did GOP shut it down? DACA is unimportant. GOP should give in to DEM and get billions to spend on army & wall. Because that's how they roll. Increase deficit if they're in power and whine about budget if dems are.

Come out of your little bubble. Reality is worth living in.

 

Takes 60 votes to end debate, democrats are holding the budget hostage to DACA. All democrat.

 

No idea what that means... all I ask is for you to post 1 AP link saying d's are to blame... that's it... then you can take your victory dance...

 

Right-wing racism over American ideals. There's really no other way to see it.

 

Great.

Show us where in the law the POTUS was given the authority to waive immigration law, or the congressional law that gives the POTUS that power.

 

A budget is racism? Fascinating.

 

Not yet, indeed. But that does mean your first post was complete and total BS that you just pulled out of your ear. Typical.

 

So what.....they do the same thing with Television Stars and Movie Stars and even Late Night Comedians.

That doesn't make them Politicians.

Face the facts.....you just can't admit to the truth that Trump wasn't a politician then.

 

So the right didn't stop military pay ?

 

yep, they wanted to blame dems, but dems knew that was coming and made sure to try and get the military paid, republicans blocked them

 

republicans choose to shutdown government rather then protect Dreamers

republicans could open the government now, but they refuse to protect dreamers

 

Oh you now don't know what that means. You say I said one thing. But fail to produce the link of what I said.


Associated Press, NYT Torpedo Democratic Narrative On Government Shutdown.....

The other event is that the Associated Press and The New York Times called out the Democrats for being responsible for the shutdown. Some left wing publications were not happy.

Not just the NYT, either. This is from the AP: "The Latest: Senate Democrats derail bill to avert shutdown"https://apnews.com/9cd8d25dceed4191aaaa1f02321d6f5d?utm_campaign=SocialFlow&utm_source=Twitter&utm_medium=AP_Politics …

11 p.m.

Senate Democrats appear to have derailed a Republican bill aimed at preventing a federal shutdown set to begin as soon as the calendar flips to Saturday.

Friday’s late-night vote means at least a short government closure is all but unavoidable. There have been no clear public signs that the two parties have significantly narrowed their disputes over immigration and the budget.

The House approved the measure Thursday over Democratic opposition. It would keep agencies afloat through Feb. 16, but Democrats want a package lasting just days in hopes of intensifying pressure on the GOP to compromise.

Republicans control the Senate 51-49. The GOP needed 60 votes to prevail, but the tally was 50-48 as of 11 p.m. Eastern time. The Senate is awaiting a final vote from Majority Leader Mitch McConnell.


12 midnight

The U.S. government shut down at midnight after Congress failed to resolve a partisan standoff over immigration and spending.

In a late-night vote, Senate Democrats joined to block a bill that would have kept the government running for another four weeks. A flurry of last-minute negotiations failed to beat the deadline.

Democrats have tried to use the Friday night funding deadline to win concessions from Republicans, including an extension of an Obama-era program protecting some young immigrants from deportation. The program is set to expire in March. Republicans sought more time for talks, but Democrats refused.

The shutdown is only the fourth government closure in a quarter-century. It will only partially curb government operations. Uniformed service members, health inspectors, and law enforcement officers are set to work without pay......snip~

Same as it ever was. lol.

 

We'll agree to disagree this says what you think it does...

 

Do you even know who Ed Morrisey is? Because one thing is a fact. Those political pundits sure do, so to does the AP and NY Times.

government is reopening, dems and repubs have about 3 weeks to address DACA or we go through this all again

 

The Schumer Shutdown is now another Trump win. The DDP needs to fire its political "expert" advisors befire the RP fires theirs.
