      There’s only one way this is gonna get better – it’s gotta hurt everyone. All the Magats and all the people who „dont pay attention to politics“, ie 40% of our country. It needs to hit everyone hard enough to shake this country out of whatever the fuck stupor its in and take the country back. If it’s too comfortable, it’ll continue. As Churchill said, Americans can always be counted on to do the right thing once every other option is exhausted.

      Man, what the actual hell? Trump’s turning a shutdown into his personal purge party—mass firing federal workers like they’re yesterday’s trash, all to bully Dems into caving on funding. Even Collins is calling it a disaster! Unions are suing, experts say it’s illegal, but nah, the GOP’s just flexing that Project 2025 muscle to gut the government.

      This isn’t governance; it’s a tantrum that screws real people. Insane.

    3. President Vought FAFO – we get to live in his world with no govt services now. Oh boy!

    4. This is all by Republican design. The top priority of course is to eliminate environmental regulations. Republicans would be all but extinct without campaign contributions from the fossil fuel industry and access to their think tanks. That’s why their unamerican proposal to do permanent damage to affordable healthcare for short term government funding.

      Let’s be real clear about this situation: He could have fired these people anytime before the shutdown. Oh, and come to think of it, he was *doing exactly that*. These people being fired is not because of the shutdown; it’s part and parcel of Project 2025’s stated and well-established plans.

      Anyhow, release the Epstein files.

      I am a state government employee that works with a federal government employee.

      We both are married, 4 kids, stay at home wife.

      It is very discouraging to watch him suffer through this and not get his paycheck that he relies on.

      What is really interesting to me, the day he didn’t get a paycheck, the state government gave us a 13k pay raise.

      Susan Collins can take her concern and shove it if shes gonna do jack all about it.

      This is a slow motion train wreck orchestrated by Grindr Mike and the Orange Pedo. They will own this shutdown.

    9. Always after Stock market hours on a Friday, because he’s a weak, old, smelly Puck.

      Democrats should state they won’t vote for any reopening bill that doesn’t fully restore these employees.

    11. No one exemplifies the out of touch, out to lunch career politicians who couldn’t understand the dangers Trump presented more than Susan „I believe the president has learned from this case“ Collins.

      Donnie Dipshit and the Reich are only a symptom of the problem, the REA:L problem is the 77 Million that voted for this. Direct all your anger and rage at them, you know who they are, everyone does

      “The blowback includes Sen. Susan Collins, pictured here pretending to care.”

    14. LucidOndine on

      “If only we had the power to stop him!”, yelled congress, ironically.

    15. Maine yall so far have 2 great candidates I’ve heard of running in the primary to get the opportunity to challenge her.

    16. news_sponge on

      Chickenshit Collins has the power to tell Trump he doesn’t get her votes unless he backs off. But no. She continue to give him the procedural votes he needs then get self-righteous about voting against something. She’s toast in the next election.

    17. Dreadful_Bear on

      Oh shit! Look out guys! Susan Collin’s is “strongly opposed” to the layoffs. What a brave woman. 🙄

    18. FlyingSolo57 on

      Gee, how many people did the previous Trump administration fire during shutdowns? I cannot find any.

    19. It can all end. Tonight. All of it. Ask McCarthy how long it took once Congress was done with his shit.

    20. boogahbear74 on

      Where the hell have all these rethuglicans been? Not like he didn’t say this is what he was going to do. Jesus, will no one get a spine and gather all your balls and ovaries together and stop all this bull shit.

    21. 49DivineDayVacation on

      Oh no! He did exactly what he said he said he was going to do!

      I’m shocked and have no plan for this completely foreseeable outcome!

    22. This isn’t a thing the Executive can actually legally do. This seems like it should be a more stressed facet to this discussion.

    23. Vandelay_Industries- on

      Whenever I see a picture of Susan Collin’s I hear her saying “I’m very concerned.”

    24. First_Stop8824 on

      Stand firm Dems. Inch by inch citizens are finally standing up to Trump and his illegal policies. Unfortunately for the employees, Trump’s absolute lack of knowledge and revenge is now brightly on display. He only knows dirty tactics; no knowledge of how our government operates . He has no interest in working with Dems. Let your elected officials know that you stand behind their position since you are the one
      Who ultimately suffers the consequences. All these years and they are
      No closer to rolling out that „great“ health care plan than they were on day 1.

    25. Trump will go down at history as the biggest and most successful attack on this country.

    26. Upper right hand corner of the screen a notification appears:

      “Susan Collins disliked that.”

    27. No_Mastodon_7896 on

      My prediction is both houses of congress will shout, scream and wring their hands. Then crickets. They are so scared of Trump they will not say shit even with a mouthful.

    28. You could have stopped this Susan.

      But it’s too late now. Your place in history is secure. A useless, feckless pretender.

      Dumbass maga thought hurting libs wouldn’t hurt themselves, their family or their friends. Maybe the democrats aren’t devils and the pedophile billionaire is the bad guy. Turn off Fox News

    30. Old-n-Wrinkly on

      Kicking people when they’re down is a sadist’s dream. Saying he’s going to target democrats in the civil service workforce to fire sounds illegal…but of course nothing is illegal for him.

      He’ll go out in a blaze, shooting up pedestrians on Fifth Avenue. Just because.
