"Give us what we want or we'll shit in the pool and ruin it for everybody."

If they put human skin on the ventriloquist dummy from goosebumps, let it age 50 years, had its human son monitor it's web traffic for porn browsing... What would that dummy look like?

Regulate votes, not guns I see

Why break the habit of a lifetime.

Where is the "mah freedum" and "they are taking away our democracy" crowd now?

They threaten/shit down the government every other issue... Like a toddler having a tantrum.

The rest of America should follow Oregon's standards.

When Republicans walked out, Oregon said Bye Felicia.

Oregon high court says 10 GOP state senators who staged long walkout can’t run for reelection.

Do it, yah fucking whinny-ass man-child.

Shut the fucking government down because you’re afraid of fucking democracy.

Dems need to draw a line in the sand here and do some of the campaigning on this

"They are so afraid that they would rather shut down government than allow votes"

I said it last shutdown but does nobody seem to notice that whenever we have a shutdown it's because Republicans keep shitting their pants and then screaming about the smell?

Every govt shutdown in my lifetime has been because of Republicans. These shutdowns impact millions of people yet I never see it brought up.

Republicans choose conservatism over democracy, and they lose the more people vote.

Yes. Lets shut down the government over this. The furloughed workers totally won’t vote democrat in protest.

Democrats should just threaten to shut down the government unless republicans suck Donald Stumps dick in response. Super easy, next question

let the gov shutdown, lets see those stock prices tumble. You'd never get a better chance to let republicans shoot their own donors in the dick. Lets see spacex stop getting checks, stop paying the supreme court. The rule they're using to "shut down" the government is likely unconstitutional anyway.

Please shut the government down... please, please, please... while your party controls a mere one half of one of a branch of the government, please shut the government down during an election cycle. Please, please, please do it.

I was debating my father in 2020 about voting and said we should make voting laws "better." He countered that different parties might have different definitions of "better." I said, "easier and more accessible." He had no counter.

I say call their obvious bluff.

If you haven't already, follow Jeff Jackson while he's still in his position. He tells it how it is and gives inside info on why they make these futile plays

Could shutting down the government somehow be an election stealing tactic by Republicons? How would that impact the government's ability to ensure fair elections.

Cure this by actually voting. Fire these fuckers!

You can! NOW!

Johnson plans to pair a bill funding the government for six months with a Republican bill called the “Safeguard American Voter Eligibility Act” or “SAVE Act,” that would require new voters to submit “documentary proof of United States citizenship,” such as a passport or a birth certificate, in order to register to vote.

That doesn't seem like an outrageous ask but then access to such documents should also be safeguarded, that is if the actual reason was just to prevent voter fraud/illegally voting
