The United States is smashing every record conceivable this year in an effort to show the world that one can indeed pull themselves up by their bootstraps and kneecapping yourself is the best way to prove your masculinity so long as you still are winning. God bless America.

Republicans are in the Wile E. Coyote off a cliff part of finding out. They could have governed with policies that improve people’s lives, but instead the instead chose to enrich themselves like feudal lords. No one likes a feudal lord.

I don’t think the shut down is a bug of the plan, I think it’s a feature. The shutdown allows Trump and company to squeeze more overreach. It’s a way to a means, of presuming more control to reshape and reform our republic. It’s a ‘blank check’ to do what they want.
For instance, they cut hundreds of billions from SNAP in the big, beautiful bill. With the shut down, they’ve been able to cut it all, even in defiance of court orders. They’ve cleaned out more federal workers. They’ve ended even more programs.
…and we’ve still added what? Almost $2 trillion to our deficit in FY2025.
