Respect that they just had one martini over two hours. There you go. If they had more than that, thats fine as well. They were entitled to it. They were groundbreakers. Alex, have a good weekend. You too, ali. With 25 hours to go, the countrys on the verge of another republicanled shutdown of congress. Kevin mccarthy has no plan.

The shutdown will happen, because a fully republican controlled house has failed in its constitutional responsibilit

And well begin this morning with Tens Of Thousands of United Auto Workers hitting the picket lines. The union officially went on strike against detroits big three auto makers at midnight. Nearly 13,000 members walked out of three plants in missouri, ohio, and in michigan. The strike is against general motors, ford, and stellantis.
