Flight cuts coming amid record-breaking government shutdown.

You can't allow a few minority students to hold the class hostage. Rules are rules. The system is in place. Trump is in office. They don't have to cave to terrorism acts by vile DEMWitted lunatic criminals.//

If they want to reopen the government, they need some Dems to vote for their bill.

Why aren't they trying to win their votes?

 

[theHawk]

People see the Republicans doing nothing to end the shut down.

You don't think that's going to impact their electoral chances?

Cool story. Going to keep the government shutdown until next November?

Best offer on the table. Only 2MO coniunuance AND at levels the dirty D already approved.

They caised it over very little. Going forward and making changes is for later on. Keep it shut. Let them feel the pain they caused unnecessarily.

They don’t need their votes to pass the bill.

The bill only needs 51 votes.

Dems are filibustering, not allowing a vote to happen.

WASHINGTON – The longest-ever government shutdown is about to create even more problems for Americans hoping to travel soon.

Federal officials said Wednesday, Nov. 5, that flight cuts are coming to major airports amid the funding crisis, which has now lasted for 37 days. Transportation Secretary Sean Duffy said there will be a 10% reduction in flights at 40 major airports at the end of the week.

Duffy did not specify how long the restrictions might last or which airports would be impacted, but officials stated they will begin on the morning of Friday, Nov. 7.

Ha! So much for the "leverage" the dems thought they had.

In case you forgot the last 30-day+ shutdown was ended by massive flight cancelations.

This kind of begs the question: why do we need the government to run air traffic control? The airports can’t pay for them along with all the other staff they employ?

Or at the very least, the airlines and airports can setup a fund to pay the Air Traffic Controllers during the shutdown. It seems like they would easily support doing that since their business relies on it.

You need their votes to end the filibuster.

Apparently it's not good enough.

Now what?

I would wait them out. What else can you do with terrorist? You can't negotiate with criminals//

Call a NATL office conversation. Explain.....Congress asked for a two months extension (and passed thru the house) at already approved spending levels. This would give time to hammer out the next spending. DEMS shut the GOVT down over this. We can't get them to sign off. So we wait. Sorry for your inconvenience. But we cannot negotiate with Terrorist or Childish tantrums.

Do you think that answer is good enough for the American people?

The election results where democrats and a commie won in blue states? Shocking...dumbass.

Beyond the blowout victories in the New Jersey and Virginia governors' races, Zohran Mamdani winning a majority of votes in New York City's mayoral election and California voters approving a plan to temporarily redraw the state's congressional districts to add Democrat-leaning districts, the party continued its trend of electoral success in the 2025 general election.

Democrats flipped two seats on Georgia's statewide Public Service Commission by wide margins, one of many surprise victories for the party Tuesday up and down the ballot in the handful of races across the country.

Pennsylvania voters chose to retain three state Supreme Court judges that were first elected as Democrats after millions of dollars in outside spending driven by conservative billionaire Jeff Yass' efforts to reshape the state court's politics. Democrats also won special elections for a seat on Pennsylvania's Superior Court and a seat on its Commonwealth Court.

Also in Pennsylvania, Democrats swept the top "row offices" in the purple-hued Bucks County, electing the county's first-ever Democratic district attorney and defeating an incumbent Republican sheriff a year after Trump narrowly won there. Democrats similarly notched commanding victories in county executive races in Erie, Lehigh and Northampton counties, all bellwether counties in recent presidential elections.

At the state legislative level, Mississippi Democrats have broken a GOP supermajority in the state Senate after flipping two seats in that chamber plus another pickup in the state House. A federal court ordered lawmakers to redraw 14 total House and Senate districts after finding the maps drawn in 2022 discriminated against Black voters.

They voted 14 times on the same proposal.

US Senate rejects funding package for 14th time with shutdown in 35th day

But talks between factions are under way as Democrats and Republicans try to bring standoff to a close

www.theguardian.com

And failed every time.

Funny. If you try different proposals and the other side does nothing but play my way or the highway there is no point in trying anymore.
The republicans have their problems but at least they understand a few things the crazy democrats do not. We can not keep adding onto the debt to fund things no sane American wants such as cooking classes in Haiti for transgenders.
But hey I get it you want to rah rah my cult and put down the other. The problem is most sane Americans see just how crazy the dems have become.

Trump just passed the largest deficit in history adding $3T to debt on top of the current run rate. Are you totally insane???????????

Republicans haven't tried different proposals. They've voted 14 times on the exact same bill without negotiating or compromising.

Are you sure Americans aren't seeing the prolonged shutdown as a failure of Republicans to govern?

Trump thinks so.

"I think if you read the pollsters, the shutdown was a big factor, negative for the Republicans," Trump said at a breakfast with Republican senators Wednesday. "And they say that I wasn't on the ballot was the biggest factor, but I don't know about that."

Democrats priorities are clear. Screw the safety of US citizens, Obamacare subsidies are more important.

Actually it is not just ACA subsidies, which democrats promised would sunset. It is funding for NPR, so they have a party platform. It is cooking classes in Haiti for transgenders. But hey we all know that we need to fund crazy stuff no matter how much debt America falls into

An yet the democrats want to add another 1.5 Trillion on to that to open the government. So right back at you.

Problem is you don't know what you're talking about. You lied about voting on 14 different proposals. They've voted 14 times on one proposal.

Republicans aren't negotiating. The American people see that.

Dis you? Explain how Republicans understand deficits by passing the largest deficit add ever.

Your joke of a deflection notwithstanding.

Your quote:

//*With lower interest rates, tariff money, increased jobs and GDP, less illegals to house & feed. That $3T rumor is fantasy.

Without DEM chaos (even street rioting), intentional slowdown by activist Obiden Judicial tyranny that number is gone into a surplus*//

Meh, unlike the vile dems we take our loses and move on, we don't go all bat shit crazy.

I've never seen the like....Talk about a graceless bunch....They are still bat shit crazy after they won a victory.

The vile dems are beyond hopeless and have not earned any leeway from the gop just by the way they act.

The gop can afford to wait you people out.....Winter Thanksgiving is coming.
