I don't understand the shutdown, why would threatening the party full of people who want small government with less spending in, and less public organizations in general, to shut down the government, potentially leading to less spending in, and less public organizations in general, lead to any response other than

FACT: Democrats Shut Down Government Over Free Healthcare for Illegals​

  • FACT: Democrats’ proposal would result in nearly $200 billion spent on healthcare for illegal immigrants and other non-citizens over the next decade — enough to fund the entire Children’s Health Insurance Program.
  • FACT: Democrats’ proposal would once again allow those improperly granted asylum and parole under Biden’s open borders scheme to receive Medicaid.
  • FACT: Democrats’ proposal would require Medicaid to pay more for emergency care provided to illegal aliens than it does for American patients who are disabled, elderly, or children.
  • FACT: Democrats’ proposal would allow California to continue exploiting a loophole to fund Medicaid for illegal aliens.
  • FACT: Democrats’ proposal would reinstate a special Obamacare subsidy for non-citizens — for which low-income American citizens are not eligible.
  • FACT: Democrats’ proposal would repeal a generational $50 billion investment in rural healthcare.
  • FACT: Democrats’ proposal would take Health Savings Accounts away from ten million American citizens.
 
Butter is delicious. Fuck off.
So is tofu retard.

Also you’re a fucking Mormon American. You have never had real butter. You probably eat that Country Crock shit. Or at best salted sweet cream slop. You will never be a true European. Your butter has no culture, no enzymes, no nuttiness from fermentation. Your butter is so plain it has to be salted to be good. You have no cheesefaring culture, no vineyards, your lands are littered with supermarkets. Your foodscape is a soulless projection of what was once true European cuisine.

Actually this isn’t true. America has lots of great bread, meat, and cheese. I’m just referencing Null.

Government shutdowns like this are barely more than political theater. Congress has already written into law measures that keep anything of importance unaffected for the most part. They knew shutdowns would mean their ass and jobs if the public was made to suffer for their incompetence and petty bullshit, so they removed all the teeth from them and turned them into just another tool in the party toolbox to play chess with.
 
The Senate has adjourned until noon on Thursday and will resume votes on Friday. Senators won't vote Thursday in recognition of the Yom Kippur holiday, which begins at sundown on Wednesday.

"We will be in session tomorrow, starting tomorrow afternoon. So the floor will be available if people want to give speeches," Thune said, adding that he expected it to be "fairly quiet around here" because of the Jewish holiday.

Because the GOP still has a bunch of neo-cons, who are just Dems painted red, that want to continue grifting tax dollars from government programs for themselves and their families/friends.
