Republican Speaker Mike Johnson predicted Monday the federal government shutdown may become the longest in history, saying he “won’t negotiate” with Democrats until they hit pause on their health care demands and reopen.

It’s this attitude that makes it a Republican shutdown.
Elections have consequences, Republicans did NOT get the 60 votes they need. They NEED to offer something to get 9 Democrats to vote with them.
By saying they aren’t willing to negotiate, THEY are shitting down the government.
This is the Trump/Johnson Shutdown of 2025.
Earlier this year, we had the Trump/RFK Measles Outbreak of 2025.
Call them what they are.
The measles outbreak earlier this year? It’s still happening and getting worse.
So glad they fired everyone at the CDC. /s
