Trump: We're Ready for a Long Schumer Shutdown — Thanks to Tariffs Ed Morrissey Democrats have put themselves in a historically bad spot by choosing to reject a clean continuing resolution offered each day by Republicans anyway. The track record for government shutdowns has been grimmer than a roulette wheel on a dodgy casino on a secondary highway. The house, or more accurately the White House, always wins. Presidents control the designation of essential services and the use of funds when Congress refuses to budget, which is why Democrats -- who know this better than the GOP, usually -- have never opted for a shutdown as a bargaining tactic. After winging his way back from a global triumph in the Middle East, Donald Trump comes back to the Schumer Shutdown with an even stronger hand politically. However, Trump's foreign policy also offers him fiscal strength that previous presidents have not had in shutdowns, or at least not to the extent Trump will enjoy. Punchbowl explains: The White House is girding for a long shutdown and has found several new funding streams for critical programs, according to top Trump administration officials. — The Office of Management and Budget is “working on ways” to get paychecks to federal law-enforcement officers, according to an administration official. This is similar to what Trump ordered over the weekend for 1.3 million active duty military service members. — The Trump administration will ensure the Special Supplemental Nutrition Program for Women, Infants, and Children — known as WIC — can continue to operate for the foreseeable future, a White House official said. The administration says it will use hundreds of millions of dollars in Section 32 tariff revenue. This is a vital nutrition program that serves more than six million participants per month, including 40%-plus of U.S. infants. https://hotair.com/ed-morrissey/2025/10/14/trump-were-ready-for-a-long-schumer-shutdown-thanks-to-tariffs-n3807818 .

"There's no place to cut in education spending" Maryland Inspector General for Education estimates over the last 6 years, Democrats spent over $990 million dollars to educate students who couldn’t be accounted for. They weren’t in class This sounds like nearly a billion dollars laundered “The funding of missing students” “This letter, written by the Maryland Inspector General for Education, Rick Henry, is eye opening. It's very alarming. In his letter, Henry includes this chart, which shows the number of instances where students were labeled whereabouts unknown — designations and estimates this issue could have cost taxpayers nearly $1 billion over the past six years”

Peace in the Middle East pushed to the second page.........................great work. Push play
