Republican senators clashed with one another and confronted Vice President Pence inside a private luncheon on Thursday, as anger hit a boiling point over the longest government shutdown in history.

“This is your fault,” Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) told Majority Leader Mitch McConnell (R-Ky.) at one point, according to two Republicans who attended the lunch and witnessed the exchange.

“Are you suggesting I’m enjoying this?” McConnell snapped back, according to the people who attended the lunch.

 

Also during the lunch, McConnell made clear to Pence and others in the room that the shutdown was not his idea and was not working. According to Republicans familiar with his comments, he quoted a favorite saying that he often uses to express his displeasure with government shutdowns: “There is no education in the second kick of a mule.”

McConnell started using that saying after the 2013 shutdown, which lasted 16 days and ended after the public largely blamed Republicans.

That specific exchange was first reported by the Hill newspaper.

Doesn't mean much on when it might be delivered.  For example, Comey wrote the memo clearing Hillary but waited for his investigation to be done before delivering it.  It could be quite  while.

Shutdown Exposes Another Government Agency Ripe For Privatization

 

Original Article

 

As the partial government shutdown drags on, the nation´s air traffic controllers warn that it´s putting the safety of air travel at risk. Here´s a solution: Privatize the air traffic control system. In a statement released along with pilots´ and flight attendants´ unions, the National Air Traffic Controllers Association says that "air safety environment … is deteriorating by the day."

CRACKS IN THE BLUE WALL: Growing Number of Dems Buck Pelosi on Federal Worker Pay.

 

 

The problem with the shutdown for the Democrats is that it hits a Democratic constituency — federal workers — harder than anyone else.

So... Trump will open the government, keep the SOTU on track for Tuesday...

 

And a National Emergency will be declared sometime before or right after the SOTU.

No one is mentioning that we are reopening the government without a wall?

 

?

 

Trump got spanked. Hard. I thought he had to go to Moscow for that.

 

You're so programmed you cannot even read what's been written before you decided to post. 

 

Sad.

WTF are you even talking about? When did I call for the repeal of DACA? 

 

You're unhinged.

How is closing the government down to get funding for a wall, and the opening thing government without a wall a win?  Sincerely?

 

the whole national emergency plan will get wrecked by courts...

 

this whole thing has has been a joke by both sides. Saying Mexico was going to pay for the wall was a joke.  Being willing to shut down the government for over a month and harm lives was a joke.  And both sides refusing to strike a compromise (fund some walls) once there was a shutdown was a joke.

 

 

And this whole thing isn’t about winning and losing, what’s the matter with all of you?  If it opens with a wall, who cares if trump won.  If it doesn’t, who cares dems won.  The country has lost over this stupid shutdown.

Most of us have learned to wait til the actual announcement, rather than listen to the braying of the media.

 

 

 

The only interesting 'rumor' that I read was that the cabinet was called to the WH................for a temporary re-opening ?
