This would *not* fare well in Cleveland. I might fancy that jacket, tho.

She caved. Tens of billions for farm subsidies. 8 billion for SNAP. What a hard bargainer she is.

She caved. Tens of billions for farm subsidies and 8 billion for SNAP. What a hard bargainer. I wonder how much she got to put ice cream in her Subzero freezer. It is high time for Nancy Pelosi and Chuck Schumer, and the rest of the sclerotic Democratic leadership to step aside and let the younger more energetic members of the party take over.

The fact you had to make a snide comment tells me you don't give a fuck about the people who would be hurt by a government shutdown, or have clue one about the political blowback the Democratic Party would take if they look like they were responsible.

Destruction for the sake of destruction is foolish.

You just don't get it. She had ample negotiating power here. The Thuglicans don't want a government shutdown because that might roil the financial markets and not look good come November 3. She could have gotten all sorts of concessions by playing off of that vulnerability on the part of the Hypocrite Party. Moreover, to the extent that the veil would have been ripped off the phony economy and financial system that we currently have, the easier it would be for Biden, upon his being elected, to become far more FDR like in his policies, in order to provide true and sweeping relief for the 99%. Instead, Nancy gave them what they wanted. Maybe because she was concerned about maintaining the value of her financial portfolio. Don't forget. Her husband got $1 Million in PPP money for his Northern California hotel interests. How much PPP money did you get?

Would we even notice if the government shut down at this point?

no, I just reload the OS. I never store files on my computer any more. That his has happened several times directly after i made certain comments is a clue for me that it's related to this site.

So she should cave in to Mitch's $30 billion? Wow. Nancy is the Republicans' best friend.

Again, not a techie here, but this sounds like good reason to run a malware scan. It seems logical to me that there might be some bad crap in your system that crashes it whenever you do [ X ].
