And while the House Freedom caucus making radical demands and treating this like a political stunt, that Saturday Night deadline very real in terms of the harm it can cause for Hundreds Of Thousands of americans. I am old enough to remember the last time that the Government Shutdown because republicans wanted something ridiculous. Its right around christmas of 2018. The federal government shut down because President Trump demanded funding for a border wall that he never ended up finishing. And on capitol hill, it was a but for 100,000 Government Workers, these antics and 35 days without a paycheck.
