Yo , no one is picking up your Senate phone and you don’t even have a voicemail. Vote no on cloture and the spending bill or I will do whatever it takes to make sure the next Senator from Illinois has basic constituent services set up during business hours.
i think shutting the government down is preferably to nullifying article i of the constitution
The weeks of performative “resistance” from those in my party were limited to undignified antics.
Voting to shut the government down will punish millions or risk a recession.
I disagree with many points in the CR, but I will never vote to shut our government down.
UPDATE: From the original poster of the letter on FB:
This letter appeared in the Bloomsburg PA Press Enterprise this morning. I am assured the writer is who he purports to be, an Air Force veteran.

Reminder that I don't argue with fascists here, I block them.
I also block people who whine that I won't listen to the fascists.
Who gets to determine when someone is acting like a fascist and/or fascist book licker? Why, I do.
If you don't like it, try not being a fascist and/or a boot licker.
I just turned on the joint press conference between Trump and the Irish PM in time to hear the President say:
"Chuck Schumer is now a Palestinian. He used to be Jewish, now he's a Palestinian."
I have nothing to say about this. I just wanted to tell you.
I’m not anti-science but let’s be honest: it’s kind of bullshit that planes work. Seems like a scam.
Honestly this might be *the* question of our time.
(great thread, btw)
This is what it's all about. Republicans are making it easier for their rich friends and donors to cheat on their taxes while the rest of us pay.

The government claims Mahmoud Khalil was already in NJ on his way to Louisiana by the time his habeas petition was filed—an argument that the NY federal court lacks jurisdiction.
But Khalil's lawyer checked the ICE locator when she filed and even 4 hrs after, and he was listed as still being in NY.
AUSA Waterman: The petitioner was in New Jersey by them. Jurisdiction never vested here under the caselaw. He was not present here at the time of filing.
Judge Furman: But you agree to the law as I've stated it? Where is he now?
AUSA: Jena, Louisiana.
