Senator Fetterman is the only common sense democrat in the democrat party.

[Rep. Anna Paulina Luna @RepLuna]

TSA AND AIRPORT SECURITY SHOULD IMMEDIATELY STOP ALL ESCORTS FOR EVERY SINGLE SENATOR HOLDING UP DHS FUNDING AND THEIR PAYCHECK!

[Senate Republicans @SenateGOP]

WATCH: @SenTedCruz outlines what Americans need a photo ID for:

✅Drive/rent a car

✅Check into a hotel

✅Shovel snow in NYC

But Democrats don’t want to require photo ID to vote.

[American Woman (Michele) 🇺🇸 @1True_American_]

This was written by a friend of my sons fiancé who works for TSA. The DEMOCRATS are bankrupting families, causing people to lose their homes, stop treatment and starve. 

The Democrats hate America. 

🚨 DAY 43 OF THE DEMOCRAT SHUTDOWN 🚨

Because while some people are sleeping peacefully and planning vacations…DHS workers are silently breaking and yes, I am one of them. 

I’m tired.
I’m angry.
I’m embarrassed.
And mentally… I am NOT okay.

I wake up every single day to go to a job that would replace me in 60 seconds if I died today! Then my position would be posted before my family even finishes grieving. We’re replaceable…

What isn’t replaceable is the stress, the fear, the humiliation and the anxiety of not knowing how you’re going to make it another week.

While people keep saying “be strong” and “hang in there”… this is our 3rd Democrat shutdown within FOUR MONTHS!! Some of us didn’t recover from the last shutdown, some of us JUST got done taking out loans, some of us JUST got done borrowing, some of us JUST got done pushing back mortgage payments, car notes, credit cards, and everything else life requires and now we’re being forced to do it all over again! No savings, no backup plan, no extra money, no credit left, no more loans to take out, no more people to ask. Some of us are literally at $0.00.

And I’m so sick of this little “shutdown letter” to our creditors like that’s supposed to fix something. Unfortunately, that letter doesn’t pay rent, that letter doesn’t buy diapers, that letter doesn’t fill up a gas tank, that letter doesn’t stop the lights from being cut off, that letter doesn’t keep food in the fridge, that letter doesn’t stop late fees, that letter doesn’t stop repossessions, that letter doesn’t stop eviction notices! That letter means NOTHING when life is still billing you! 

And please stop saying, “at least y’all will get back pay.” Back pay doesn’t help me right now! Back pay doesn’t help when the gas light is on TODAY. Back pay doesn’t help when rent is due TODAY. Back pay doesn’t help when kids need food TODAY. Back pay doesn’t help when I’m trying to figure out how I’m even getting to work TOMORROW. We cannot survive off promises.

And THE MENTAL TOLL this is taking? Because this isn’t just financial anymore. This is waking up every day with anxiety, crying in silence because you still have to get dressed and show up, smiling in passengers faces while your own life is falling apart behind the scenes, trying to be “professional” when you’re mentally exhausted, emotionally drained, and financially drowning all while not getting paid!!

Imagine giving 10+ years of your life to a job, some of us have given 20+ years. And now our ability to survive is being decided by people in suits who still get to go home, sleep peacefully, and collect THEIR checks while playing political games with OUR lives.

People are mentally exhausted, emotionally unstable, financially overwhelmed and still being forced to perform in high-stress environments like everything is normal.

And if Congress doesn’t make a decision in the next 2 weeks, they go on a “spring break recess” for another 2 weeks which means by the time they return this will push us to 60 days with no pay!! So while they go on vacation, they relax, they enjoy their families, they eat good and sleep peacefully. We’ll still be here trying to figure out how to survive, trying to figure out how to feed our families and trying to figure out how not to lose everything.

I’m not posting this for pity. I’m not posting this for sympathy. I’m posting this because too many people think federal workers are “fine” just because we’re still showing up.

WE ARE NOT FINE.

Some of us are one missed payment away from losing everything. Some of us are one more week away from a full breakdown.

[ThePersistence @ScottPresler]

The reason why the democrat party is such a joke

is they forced you to show vaccination cards to enter restaurants during COVID,

but are completely against ID to vote.

[Derrick Evans @DerrickEvans4WV]

🚨 BREAKING: Airlines face calls to stop letting members of Congress skip TSA lines as waits near four hours amid DHS funding dispute.

[Nick Sortor @nicksortor]

If TSA is going to be forced to begin shutting down airports as the Democrats withhold DHS funding, they should start with Reagan National in DC.

Shut it down when Congress tries to go home this week.

As soon as Democrat politicians start being inconvenienced, they’ll fold.

[Nick shirley @nickshirleyy]

🚨 Here is the full 40 minutes of my crew and I exposing California fraud, Minnesota was big but California is even bigger... We uncovered over $170,000,000 in fraud as these fraudsters live in luxury with no consequences. Like it and share it, the fraud must STOP.

We ALL work way too hard and pay too much in taxes for this to be happening. These fraudsters have been able to defraud American taxpayers for years without any pushback from the public and politicians.

It is time to EXPOSE IT ALL and end America's fraud crisis.

[Jason Chaffetz @jasoninthehouse]

Dear Airlines, stop escorting Members of Congress to the front of the TSA lines. Let them experience what the Democrats are doing to travel. @Reagan_Airport

Good morning to everyone but Pittsburgh, #HereWeGo fans & the officials that ruled Mike Renfro’s grab against the #Steelers in 1980 wasn’t a catch. Sometimes you have to win ugly to exorcise your city’s football playoff demons. And retire a legend in the process. #HTownMade 🤘🏼🔥

[Adam Clanton @adamclanton]

Good morning to everyone but Los Angeles, #BoltUp fans and Justin Herbert Truthers. Your precious, developed-in-a-lab QB might be the most overrated in football. Once again @CJ7STROUD outplayed him, and once again his team won the game. Now go away. #HTownMade🔥🤘🏼

[Adam Clanton @adamclanton]

Good morning to everyone but Kansas City, #ChiefsKingdom fans & She Who Shall Not Be Named. I don’t need her minions in my mentions for the next week. But you can rest assured she saw her man play hot potato with that football before Houston sent his team packing. #HTownMade🤘🏼🔥

Everyone in College Football might want to hear this 👇

🚨Coach Vic Schaefer is on🔥 and says it best...

We asked coach Schaefer how he feels about @TexasFootball being in the CFP.

... and he does NOT sugercoat his words

Good…afternoon to everyone but Buffalo, #BillsMafia fans and anyone who doesn’t respect this defense. It was so exhausting *watching* those eight sacks that I passed out and had to hit you guys with a nooner video. Anyway, hope Josh Allen enjoys his weekend! #HTownMade🔥🤘🏼

[John Kennedy @SenJohnKennedy]

What’s good for the goose is good for the gander.

I’m introducing two bills tomorrow to stop Congress from getting a paycheck during the shutdown.

[The Vigilant Fox 🦊 @VigilantFox]

John Fetterman brings the Kennedy Center to complete silence as he delivers this emotional message on stage:

“I know and I love people who voted for President Trump. They are NOT fascists, they’re NOT Nazis, they’re NOT trying to destroy the Constitution.”

“I REFUSE to call people Nazis or fascists. I would never compare anybody — anybody to Hitler.”

“Like Charlie Kirk, all I could say is let people grieve — give people the space. I’m not going to use that terrible thing and that assassination to make my argument and try to put out my views.”

“It’s like, my God, he’s a father that had his neck blown out by a bullet. And now people have forgotten: President Trump was in my state — was shot in the head. Could you imagine where our nation would be if he were hit in the same way as Kirk? We really got to turn the temperature down.”
