The risk of a partial government shutdown at the end of January grew more likely Saturday after Senate Democrats vowed to block a funding package over a fatal Minneapolis shooting involving federal law enforcement authorities.
Senate Democratic Leader Chuck Schumer (N.Y.) on Saturday evening said that Democrats will block a major government funding package if it includes money for the Department of Homeland Security (DHS), calling the actions of Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) officers and Border Patrol agents in Minneapolis “appalling.”
“What’s happening in Minnesota is appalling — and unacceptable in any American city,” Schumer said in a statement.
Because the only thing worse than a broken government is none at all. Do you want to be Germany 1945 or do you want to be Somalia?
Seems like the choice is more like Germany 1939 or Somalia, and at least one of those doesn’t end with 40 million people dead.
Somalia is committing fewer Holocausts than 1945 Germany, so yeah.
But not fewer genocides.
