Air traffic controllers expected to miss their first full paycheck Tuesday, while military pay deadline looms

Recommended Posts

I hope the democrats are enjoying all of this. And I hope they stay home for the rest of Trump's term in office. 

Enjoy your holiday travel this year. :thumbsup: :banana:

 

https://www.foxnews.com/politics/federal-workers-brace-missed-paycheck-shutdown-enters-5th-week

Washington is barreling into its fifth week of a government shutdown, and despite a handful of payday deadlines for federal workers fast-approaching, there’s been little progress made toward turning the lights back on.

The Senate is expected to again vote on a House-passed plan to reopen the government this week but has failed to advance the continuing resolution (CR) 12 times.

As before, the legislation — which would reopen the government until Nov. 21 — is expected to fail again. The same dispute that triggered the shutdown nearly a month ago remains unresolved.

Senate Democrats, led by Senate Minority Leader Chuck Schumer, D-N.Y., want an ironclad deal to extend expiring Obamacare premium subsidies, while Senate Republicans want to address the issue only after the government is reopened.

Senate Majority Leader John Thune, R-S.D., argued that Democrats’ position had little to do with the actual premium tax credits, nor a desire for negotiations.

"It's politics," he said.

"Well, they’d like you to believe that it's about healthcare," he said on the Senate floor last week. "It's not. Republicans have been perfectly clear that we're willing to have a discussion about healthcare, just not while government funding is being held hostage and all the federal employees that come with that. So if this were really about healthcare, Democrats would be voting in favor of the clean CR as the quickest way to reopen the government."

In the meantime, payday deadlines for air traffic controllers, military service members, and a funding cliff for federal nutrition assistance programs are right around the corner.

Air traffic controllers are expected to miss their first full paycheck on Tuesday after being partially paid earlier this month.

Why does this keep happening with Trump as Prez? I thought he was the worlds best deal maker 🤔

Because liberals hate this country. And they are babies when they lose.

For you to blame Trump on this is stupid. Go to work and if you get out voted, suck it up buttercup.

The world's best deal maker has refused to negotiate with Democrats.

Because the conservatives respect the system and how it works. When liberals don't get their way they cry and go home. Conservatives just keep working through things the best they can and go do their jobs even when they get outvoted.

Right! Biden and the Dems give things up in the negotiation. That’s why it’s called a negotiation.

Biden got major legislation through a Republican Senate. Obama got ACA done among other things. Crazy how they did this. Must have been magic!

Because republicans have a lot of RINOs and because they don't go home crying and refusing to work because they got outvoted. 

Unlike the democrats. Nasty freaking Pelosi stood up on world wide television and tore up Trump's address to the nation speech. The liberals all coordinated outfits. Jeez dude. How juvenile can liberals get?

They'll be OK for at least 3 months as long as they followed the golden rule of home finance. Have enough liquid funds available to cover 3 to 6 months of living expenses.

Oh it’s the RINO’s 😂

If you know you don’t have the votes you kind of have to give something? Right? That seems like some basic level negotiating. 

Mike Johnson sent everyone home prior to this shutdown…take a guess why!

They care about the people and didn't do what the libtards are doing. Simple as that. Democrats have only one motive, win or cry constantly and take their ball and go home.

Chuck Schumer and his mob of Nazi's are trying to kill Americans to protect ILLEGAL IMMIGRANTS. 

@thegeneral @Ron_Artest @The Real timschochet @TimHauck

Shame!!!! 

It's amazing they are so blind to it. Their hatred rules their lives as well as those who don't care about it but suffer from it because they are not getting paid or are not going to be able to fly safely over the holidays.

Schumer is powerful enough to shut down the government. Trump is powerful enough to get past it and implement what he wants. :thumbsup:

Maybe Trump can call up Biden or Obama and asked them how they did it.

Maybe the liberals can go back to work and do their jobs like the republicans did.

Art of the Deal. Trump can’t figure it out.

Has to fall back on freaking out his antics talking to to the media. His perfect cognitive tests where he identified a giraffe, getting pissy when asked about the WH he is blowing up, etc. 

It’s his main move,

You can't deal with people who refuse to go to work. You can thank your leaders for that.

Who knows? Can’t be worse. Government keeps shutting down with Trump in charge. He can’t seem to figure out leverage, negotiation, etc.

Johnson sent the House home early on vacation to avoid the Epstein vote 😂

Trump can’t figure out a way to get like 10 Dem Senators to vote with him.

Yeah. The  government will stop writing checks very soon. This will all end up costing way more. It’s pretty bad. The buck stops with the Prez, like Donald said.

He doesn't know. He's a liberal. 

He thinks Trump, the guy who goes to work every day, is keeping the liberals from going to work every day.

He can. You need to make it worth his while or give him something. Kind of the negotiation part as he has this leverage. Art of the Deal and all!

This is all part of politics. Up to this point it seems Trump is taking the blame. His own words in the past support that - it’s on the Prez.

When people don’t get checks and basic services we’ll see what happens.

The point remains…why does this happen when Trump is Prez. Why does he suck at this part of the job?
