Government Shutdown - March Edition

Honest question: if the Epstein files had damning evidence about Trump why wouldn’t the previous administration have released that or leaked it to damage his campaign at the least?

We already know that the DOJ had the fbi flag every time it said trump. Anyways if it doesn’t why doesn’t the current administration release it.

All correct - except neither party is fiscally conservative. They both want to spend way more than is reasonable, just on slightly different things.

The membranes are more fiscally conservative tho.

Kinda interesting how you guys are attacking each other when you're getting screwed by EVERYONE else except each other - left, right, union, management. No wonder Controllers are ineffective at progress. Now we know how you got where you're at.

Not gonna waste my time reading your right-wing OPINION article. Here’s a non-opinion article with irrefutable truth. One of REPUBLICAN president Nixon’s AG’s was convicted of crimes and served actual prison time. You’re welcome for the free history lesson. I’ll do the job your teachers failed to do:

Do you not understand the difference between a news article by a reporter & an Op/Ed? JFC, the decline in the American education system certainly explains how a pedophile conman could get elected twice to the presidency.

I agree with you. They should release everything they have to the public, but the party in power from 2020-2024 had it and didn’t release it either. Is it because there are prominent politicians in both parties who would be implicated? At this rate, we’ll likely never know until everyone in the files is dead. My guess is Trump (At a minimum) laundered money with Epstein somehow.

Why do I get the feeling with some people in here (and really a lot of people in the country) that if someone insulted them in some way... and another person stabbed them in the chest... that they'd be telling the cops 'well you do realize that both of them are bad, right?'

You mean like how you still don’t understand how voting on appropriations falls different that a lot of other things for congress? Even after I’ve tried explaining it to you on more than one occasion?

Maybe if you weren’t balls deep in your libtard articles all the time that have a one-sided narrative you’d probably know more about how the government works instead of just regurgitating intellectually dishonest media talking points all the time.

Your use of the term “libtard” tells me everything I ever needed to know about you. Definitely proving yourself to be a true cult member. I’m sure you’re loving watching the party you voted for “traumatize” federal employees just as they said they would.

Voting on appropriations does *NOT* differ when it comes to the Senate filibuster, which is nothing more than a Senate rule that can easily be discarded as has been done numerous times for various issues over the years.

A law professor at George Washington, who is the head of public interest law at a top 10 law school certainly has opinions worth listening to.

Since you are unwilling to read, his issue with Garland was the deliberate slow walking and obfuscation of the hunter Biden/joe Biden corruption and influence cases, and the simultaneous increasingly unethical and unprecedented pursuit of trump at all costs, for anything. As far as a “far right” piece goes, this is written by a guy who called for bush and co to be prosecuted for war crimes, was also critical of the Obama admin and AG holder for not going after cia torture and has uniformly been critical of executive privilege, the concentration of power at the executive office, and the increasingly imperial nature of the presidency since 2000.

If you don’t think someone with that resume and that very consistent set of beliefs is worth at least listening to, regardless of your level of agreement, then you’re truly lost.

My guess is they refuse to let any details out to not embarrass our greatest ally™️

Do you understand that all the procedures are rules that they created themselves and aren’t in the constitution?

No, what happened is that you made a ludicrous statement out of pure ignorance in not knowing that this nation actually had an Attorney General get convicted for his crimes in office and sent to prison. You tried to offer the *OPINION* of a right-wing hack to try to claim an AG who committed no crimes was the most corrupt in history. Turley is paid to appear on Fox - the Trump Family Propaganda Channel that employs his own family members - to spew right-wing talking points.

Thanks for bringing up Hunter Biden. Did you hear whose company just got awarded a major Pentagon contract to supply drone parts? Why, it just so happens to be Donald Trump Jr, who has absolutely no experience in drones or national defense. I guess there’s not much in the way of taxpayer dollars to pay us federal employees when the Trump family is busy lining its pockets with those tax dollars.

Trump’s DOD Gives Massive Contract to Company With Ties to His Son
Donald Trump Jr. joined the company as an adviser in November 2024, right around when his father was elected president.

Same as it ever was

Only right wing ******* in the US would consider liberals as a side instead of being bog standard centrists

Anybody notice some of the reasons (lies) posted on the public FAA delay website?

This morning it said BUF due to deicing. It was clear & 55 degrees. A few days ago it said volume for CVG. Trying to hide something?

Oh I do, it’s just neither party has historically done what DOD4Life is saying with appropriations for a myriad of reasons, changing majorities being the biggest.
