💥NEW: Stephen A. Smith: "I wanna emphasize: you're a Republican, you somebody that wanted our border closed because Biden left the border open — I ain't got no problem with you! As far as I'm concerned, the liberals and Democrats need to shut the h*ll up on that issue!"
"When Obama deported 3.1 million people, you ain't say anything! You had networks doing features on ICE! Suddenly, they the bad guys! They're the scourges of the earth!"
"Shut the h*ll up! I don't wanna hear from you!"
Europeans in the weeks leading up to the World Cup: “Nobody’s going to go to this tournament because of US politics! The stadiums are going to ruin it!”
Actual World Cup: Packed with Europeans visiting the US and amazing stadium atmospheres
There is a lot of “Paraguay isn’t very good” talk. Full stop.
Under Alfaro, they lost just once in WCQ and went 9 straight without defeat. They beat URG, Brazil, & Argentina.
They were one of the best defensive teams in the 🌎.
Paraguay isn’t bad.
#USMNT made them look bad.
The TSA meltdown is the Democrats fault!
The TSA meltdown is the Republicans fault!
No.
The TSA meltdown is the GOVERNMENT'S fault.
Their job, the one we pay and elect them for, is to keep the government running efficiently and serve the citizens.
Hold them ALL accountable.
After Sen. Schumer (D-NY) said Democrats don’t object to photo ID, Sen. Husted (R-OH) introduced a bill that would implement a nationwide photo ID requirement to vote, accepting passports, driver’s licenses, or tribal & military ID.
Democrats blocked it.

I have been a Democrat my entire voting life. I said this after October 7, and I mean it even more now. This is not the Democratic Party I once knew.
I do not like Trump, and I have never voted for him. But Trump Derangement Syndrome is real. The inability to think critically or rely on fact-based reasoning, driven purely by disdain for one person, is deeply disturbing. It shows how ignorant and detached from reality some people are.
If Democrats want to keep pushing people like me to question our continued commitment, middle-of-the-road, tax-paying, contributing members of society, and yes, the bar is embarrassingly low these days, in favor of champagne socialists and fake revolutionaries who flirt with domestic extremism, they will do so at their own demise.
You know, you guys can always just accept the clean CR—that is, the budget you *already voted for* under Biden—and reopen the government whenever you want.
What the Democrats are doing on the government shutdown is genuinely unprecedented, and while the administration has shielded the American people from the worst of the consequences, all of this is coming, and soon:
An aviation emergency that will lead to significant travel delays for all Americans.
Food stamp and other assistance programs running out for needy Americans.
Great strains on our military and national security.
The shutdown has now passed from farce into tragedy, and the consequences of this national emergency fall on every senator and congressman who refuses to open the government.
Not this Democrat.
@AFGENational, now @Teamsters—I back the unions and always have.
I back our military and the Capitol Police, and paying them for their work.
I back the 42M Americans who rely on SNAP to feed themselves.
End this shutdown.
If there are any Democrats out there who care about the damage this shutdown is doing, then I have a bill at the desk:
A clean, nonpartisan CR to fund WIC, SNAP, troop pay, air traffic controller pay, farm programs, housing assistance, national defense, and more.
It’s becoming clearer by the day that Democrats don’t want an outcome, they want a political issue.
They’ve refused to reopen the government – 12 times.
They’ve refused my offer to discuss Obamacare’s failures.
They’ve refused my offer to hold a vote on their own proposal to address a problem they created.
They’ve refused to pay the troops and federal employees who are working without a paycheck.
The only thing they’ve said yes to? The Schumer Shutdown and political “leverage.”
