Time for a recall

Maggot · 2025-10-09T18:16:32-0400

I think its time for a recall vote. Recall Trump, and both houses of Congress. If these morons cant learn to work together and not shut the government down, they dont deserve to be in their position. They dont give a rat's ass about us, they get good pay, insurance, expenses, and a salary for life.

To paraphrase Tiny Tim, "Fuck these morons, every one.

The results speak for themselves.

Just waiting for the Cheerleaders to start singing “Stand By Your Man.”

Caveat: I really don’t think it matters which administration’s at the helm. We have demonstrated a definite, consistent pattern of “handing ourselves to hell in a handbasket.”

Milf Dots · 2025-10-09T18:37:36-0400

We American Citizens elected Trump and team to STOP compromising with the party of Leftism. Fuck the Dems for their Schumer Shutdown.

Compromise with the Left is how our Republic has gotten so fucked up, moved so far Left.

Personally, I'd vote to shut it down forever.

WaltHer · 2025-10-09T18:57:02-0400

Well, when America is divided, pretty much 50/50, it's hard to believe you'd get anything besides a deadlock. I'm disappointed enough in the "compromises" that have already been made. Not really into anymore.

And in all fairness, I don’t really blame Democrats for not compromising what they believe in either.

Demotwats gets all the blame for being fucking petulent whiney lil bitches especially when they have no power in their hands.

dimwits!

How is the shutdown impacting you?

Badjujuu · 2025-10-09T19:41:21-0400

Shut it all down. Then shut down congress and senate pay and all benefits.

And yes, I do have a dog in the fight.

Compromising with mentally ill people is the epitome of going full retard; it has never and will never get you where you want to go.

The only way it’s directly affecting me is the ATC controllers are considered essential, but they are not getting paid, so they may or may not be instigated slow downs. I think essential employees like them should be getting paid. I think all of congress should not only not get paid, they should not get back pay, and they should actually have to pay a daily fine for their failure, taken out of their future pay. There should be a law that if a shutdown lasts more than two weeks, everyone automatically looses their seat in congress and a special election is held to vote new people in; also, if you have already served two terms, you can no longer run in a special election.

Yeah, none of that is ever going to happen….

Bullfrog08 · 2025-10-09T20:08:45-0400

Yes....we need a super long shutdown! 25 year shutdown should work for starters!

918v · 2025-10-09T20:26:41-0400

The only people complaining about the shutdown are Feds

This brings up an interesting question. Why are air traffic controllers federal employees? Perhaps airports should just hire controllers, like most private businesses hire employees.

Trouble is, if you scratch just a bit below the surface, their both the same. They do what their owners tell them.

I don't think people want to see what's underneath the stupendously lustrous, albeit really thin, veneer.

Some of the RINO leadership does. I don't believe the rank and file conservatives want our civilization to fail. The same can't be said for the Left.

Agreed. But I'm past expecting them to have a revalation and suddenly change their minds. And remember, they are saying the exact same thing about us. And then shooting us.

Hint: its a level above "essential"...

My youngest son sold calves today

He has a $44,000 check in hand

He also has a beginning farmer/rancher loan from FSA

(It is common for young people here to get started this way)

They have to sign off on the check so he can cash it to pay expenses and debt

The shutdown is affecting local businesses

sirhrmechanic · 2025-10-10T06:07:00-0400

Time for a new Constitutional convention…

How about no more Gerrymandering?

How about ID to vote. Period.

How about electoral colleges for states… so cities can’t control huge swaths of the country.

How about preventing fed govt from bribing us with our own money.

How about preventing judges from legislating by writ

How about no more stock trading by elected officials. Blind trust for financial assets.

How about no foreign-born allowed to run for office. At all. Not even dog catcher.

How about a ban on Sharia or other shadow legal systems on our soil.

How about English as our one and only official national language. Learn it or GTFO.

How about no UN business to occur on American soil. Let them do their shit in Lesotho or some craphole. In fact, dissolve it and stop paying dues.

How about enforcing laws against communists in government (they are in the books) or immigrating to USA (also on the books).

How about we act like the Republic we are, not a Jacksonian rabble shouting “our democracy” which we know is bullshit and means “voting ourselves your money and property and labor.”

Well, I can dream…

In addition, no member of the communist party can vote or hold public office.

Gunfighter14e2 · 2025-10-10T06:25:07-0400

Past that shit, then turn off the Internet & cell phones, the problem will self sort.

ZiaHunter · 2025-10-10T06:31:26-0400

When you come to the realization that government fucking hates us things become very clear. They impose laws on us that fuck us in so many ways ie ACA that drove up the cost of health insurance while exempting themselves from the negative effects. Pay into SS your whole life only to get taxed again on it if you continue to keep working once you reach retirement age. Take away all the perks for being in congress and apply the same laws on them that they impose on us. No government lifetime pension or healthcare for starters.

Believe? They don’t believe 90 percent of the shit rolling out of their mouths. They’re like a 16-year-old boy with a hardon. They will say anything to ge5 laid.

Well we're into the 10th day of gov shutdown. I have yet to see/feel any impact on my life, everything running just like it always does. People get up, go to work, come home and watch fake news.

Other than maintain a military, what does the federal government do that has an actual meaningful impact on your life?

Funny, though. I see all kinds of ads online for expensive shit with "I need to sell now due to government shutdown."

Watches, knives, guns, motorcycles, campers, you name it. All those big paychecks and not able to last 2 paychecks without the McMansion and the Porsche SUV getting repo'd. More like the spendy loft and the Rivian. But you know what I mean.

Suck to be half the IRS, though. 48,000 of them were just furloughed permanently. You're Fired! Awesome!
