@realTuckFrumper Fingers crossed, but with the #GOzP having a say, and #TheEndGame a shutdown is likely inevitable. Delaying #TheHeadCriminal’s prosecution any way possible is priority Number One.

"Every defendant charged with racketeering in Georgia is, of course, a member of the Republican Party, which until recently, at least, was known as the party of law and order. Since the multiple indictments of Donald Trump, however, the Republican Party has taken a sudden pro-crime turn, with many Republicans, including Trump himself, calling for the defunding and dissolution of the Department of Justice and the FBI."

@DeanObeidallah I wish Mastodon had more than a star for like because this would be an angry face. The #GOzP touts their fiscal/moral responsibility, that is except when they want something, to invade someone, to avoid helping when funds should be spent, they say no. Or most sinister, when Master beckons because he’s got his tit in a wringer, his plan to defraud and dismantle the FedGovt is failing, so they fall all over themselves to be the good minions. This is their End Game. 🔥👹

REMINDER to CORPORATE MEDIA: This government shutdown was because last week Trump DEMANDED the shutdown to defund the federal criminal prosecutions of him. That is 100% why MAGA is causing this. https://www.nbcnews.com/politics/donald-trump/trump-demands-republicans-shut-government-defund-criminal-prosecutions-rcna111365

"The standard practice for prosecutors who are trying to hold the leaders of a group of criminals accountable is to 'go up the chain.' …
That brings us to today and Scott Hall, an Atlanta-area bail bondsman who was facing seven charges in the Fulton County case, including a RICO violation and conspiring to steal sensitive election data in Coffee County."

@Huntn00 That, to me, is the salient question. These people are a mirror of whom almost half of us aspire to be.
@joeinwynnewood He should but it’s difficult to let go of power. Not making excuses for him, and not the first time he’s been indicted. 😳

He should resign immediately.
If he were indicted for some business or personal matter, maybe not, but this is public corruption and includes national security implications.
As Democrats, we cannot tolerate this even as allegations.
If we're going to prosecute the corruption of the Supreme Court in the court of public opinion, as we must, he has to go. Now.

“It’s hard to grasp the complete derangement of this moment. Three days before they’re set to shut down the United States government, Republicans launch a baseless impeachment drive against President Biden. No one can figure out the logic of either course of action. Why shut down the U.S. government, something no enemy nation has ever succeeded in doing?"

Approximately 30% of Ukraine — an area twice the size of Austria — has been contaminated with mines as a result of Russian aggression. Clearing the minefields will be a colossal task that will continue well after the shooting has stopped.
