Too late many of us failed to recognize the combination of this to which you refer and its synchronization with the other parts of the coup launched against us.
I am not going to claim some sort of talent in prognostication. But, I have been in enough countries in which takeovers have occurred to be wary of same.
And I started feeling that Drumpf would be president on the day of Super Tuesday, 2016. Actually two days before, when I saw a big white Chevy Tahoe with the bumpersticker
**TRUMP**
It was actually the lying that made me think that, along with the volume of it and the audience to whom it was aimed. For the rest of the year I, along with all of us here, labored mightily to express ourselves logically, fairly and with integrity and I BET I am not alone with the narrative I am relating to you.
Social Security will still be paid, so will Federal pensions - ironically, because theyâre entitlements. They are considered multi-year commitments outside of the annual budget process for purposes of shutdowns (in other words, Congress doesnât need to pass a law every year that says âpay SS benefitsâ - the funds and spending commitments are already in place - so they wonât be shut down.)
But the shut-down could impact trying to get benefits started, fix problems, etc.
Our soldiers have received COLAs every year - but federal employees havenât. Federal employees went without a raise for three years as part of the Sequester.
And I think the COLA begrudgingly planned by the Congress this year over trumpâs objections is now put on hold because itâs part of the legislation stalled by trump - so even the civilians in the funded part of government wonât receive a cost-of-living raise as of January 1st.
Sometimes words fail when trying to describe the depth and range of his lies. So many people enlist because they couldnât find work or couldnât afford an education so they really need to be rewarded just because theyâre there and in harmâs way. They also make the perfect audience because they must turnout out for his appearance and show respect to him as CIC when he obviously doesnât deserve it.
As to a new budget, excerpt from NYT reporting on is it a wall or is a fence and negotiations on paying for it.
âThere is not a one-size-fits-all solution â a wall, slats, whatever â and nobody who has ever looked at this question has said that that is the solution,â Senator Menendez D-NJ added.
And the alarming part.
While a final decision has not been made, Ms. Pelosi will most likely seek a swift vote on the legislation the House spurned before funding lapsed: the Senateâs stopgap spending bill would provide funding through Feb. 8, according to a House Democratic aide familiar with the negotiations.
Because next month will herald a new Congress, the Senate will have to pass it again. And there is no guarantee that Mr. Trump will sign it.
He will completely own the shutdown if he were to not sign it, which politically could only benefit Democrats, but 800,000 Federal employees are feeling the pain right now, and how much longer can they endure it.
Yes, but also you have a bock of 38 Congressmen in the âFreedom Caucusâ that wonât be happy unless they take the country back to 1620. TheRepublicans never got that group under control.
Itâs just one more in the cascade of lies, kicked high into gear because of the government shutdown.
When asked whether he had a message for federal workers either furloughed or working without pay, he replied that âmany of those workers have said to me and communicated, âStay out until you get the funding for the wall.'â
âThese federal workers want the wall,â he added. âThe only one that doesnât want the wall are the Democrats.âdown. On Christmas Day he said,
And in the middle of this mess trump freezes federal workerâs pay.
âNo increase fer you!!! Now get back to work and let me check this monthâs golf resort and hotel receiptsâ ⌠trump would whine like nobodyâs business if he lost income but he could care less about folks trying to make ends meet.
