B-Man Posted Tuesday at 04:47 PM Posted Tuesday at 04:47 PM With a government shutdown looming, Democrats are clanging like cymbals, accusing Republicans of not wanting to fund "healthcare." Of course, the truth of the matter is far different from their pronouncements. What's being "cut" are COVID-era emergency appropriations that Democrats set to expire in the Inflation Reduction Act. Then there's the issue of funding for healthcare for illegal aliens, which is part of the $1.5 trillion "hostage" deal exposed by Vice President JD Vance and House Speaker Mike Johnson (R-LA). But while Democrats are no doubt responsible for marching America toward another shutdown, given they'd be the ones blocking a clean funding bill, they would also be marching themselves into a trap. If the clock strikes midnight and there's no continuing resolution, the Trump administration will be able to go nuclear on the bureaucracies, which remain the primary power center for the left. In fact, a memo has already been set out by OMB telling various government agencies to prepare for mass firings. That leaves Democrats with very little leverage in negotiations as the deadline looms. If they choose to plow forward with shutting the government down to virtue signal for illegal immigration, they will end up taking a hatchet to the embedded bureaucracy, their primary source of policy influence. So are they bluffing? I'm starting to think so. No doubt Schumer and company are more than willing to screw over Americans, but are they willing to screw over themselves? Color me skeptical they'll give Trump that big of a win just to garner a few more backslaps from MSNBC. I think there's a good chance Democrats back down in the eleventh hour. https://redstate.com/bonchie/2025/09/30/democrats-are-walking-into-a-trap-n2194556

As they entered the opposing lane of traffic, a minivan slammed into the side of the trailer, destroying it beyond all recognition. Its three occupants were killed, and Singh is now in custody, facing manslaughter charges. That wasn't the end of the ordeal, though. As Florida authorities began to dig into the truck driver's background, they discovered he's an illegal immigrant. Worse, he was issued a commercial driver's license under Newsom's sanctuary state policies. https://redstate.com/bonchie/2025/08/17/big-update-truck-driver-who-killed-three-was-an-illegal-immigrant-and-now-gavin-newsom-is-implicated-n2192902 1
