  1. The only thing they're "trying" to do is show what useless failures they are, while getting paid for it.

  2. No to spending cuts no to trumps garbage wall we must fund ukraine and the government

  3. Hahahahah, lol, jajajajajajajajajajajajajaja

  4. In the meantime, Biden supporters UAW to shut down the auto plants around the country.πŸ˜‚

  5. Can we just split the country into 2? Technically we are still split in 2 since no peace resolution was signed after the civil war. Remember how Lincoln became president even though no one in the south voted for him. LOL we never learn.

  6. Why doesn't the mainstream media tell the public what exactly is in these Bills. These bills are absolutely not America first..Shut it Down..enough is enough!!

  7. Defund the kleptocratic idiocracy!

  8. Good shut it down hahahahaha

  9. Im sure funding a war with billions of dollers helps!

  10. How much money can the government save by just shutting down the Republican party?
    Would there be anything else noticeable, other than the government working as it should?

  11. The funny thing is after next election, there will be more MAGA members in the house and senate as all of these RINO POS get removed. Keep outing yourself β€œrepublicans”, because we’re coming for you!

    As someone who will personally be affected by the shutdown, I’m putting my money where my mouth is. Shut it down! Shut it down! Shut it down!

  12. We must spend more as a nation. We don't have the money, but we can borrow it. If America is going to lead the world, it has to spend more. Trillions is the new billions!

  13. Politicians; failed to do job.
    Government: you can still get payed you little :3
    People that did nothing wrong/3.5million people.
    Government: naanhhhh

  14. STOP GIVING UK $$$$ AND STOP PAYING FOR ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS!!!!

  15. They’re going to shut it down!

  16. Goetz was happy with the Trillions Trump added to the debt. He's lying about caring now

  17. They have all year but spend their time insider trading. cough Dan. How yall gonna send millions to Ukraine but can't hook up your federal employees

  18. Maybe if you said this was a Ukrainian bill it would get passed

  19. Better US govt should shuts down at least for 2 weeks until inflation under control

  20. Every rep and senator in office, who could not work within their budget and decrease the deficit, should not be eligible for reelection.

  21. More War please!!!πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚

  22. So now they changed it to Saturday

  23. I appreciate your zeal Rep. Gaetz, but on the other hand, I really dislike your level of federal funding ignorance since we are now in and we forevermore shall be in the quantitative easing (QE) era or what I call Equity Spending (ES) which is the more appropriate nomenclature to use when describing the electronic generation of we the peoples' ES $s in order to meet federal expenditures (and a whole lot more) when there are insufficient funds available from our defunct federal tax revenue system that will never, cannot ever, never be revived.
    Succinctly stated, if you don't have the intellect that enables you to be able to grasp the Equity Spending reality then you should not be a member of Congress, nor should you be presiding in the White House.

  24. They don't care about their paychecks. Their kickbacks is the real money. And they can't get that while government is shutdown.

  25. McCarthy and GOP Republicans are stupid shutting down the government and let American people suffer while being out of work. This is a disgrace.

  26. Republicans in congress should NOT be paid for not doing their job!

  27. The republicans and kevin mccarthy is goi n g to shut down the givernment.

  28. Here we go again another government shut down not surprised

  29. I am afraid of riots and all the evils in their minds. Please stop this @$_#_$#2_– and fix this!!!!!!!!😒😒😒😒😒

  30. No more money to Ukraine – we badly need it here. America πŸ‡ΊπŸ‡² πŸ—½1st – not LAST

  31. And Mc carthy wants to serve the people? πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚πŸ˜‚ more like he wants power!πŸ’™πŸ’™πŸ’™
