The Trump administration is blaming Democrats for the government shutdown in internal federal agency communications as well as public agency websites, in what experts say could be a violation of federal ethics laws.
A bright red banner and pop-up message first appeared Tuesday on the Department of Housing and Urban Development's website. It was updated early Wednesday morning and warns: "The Radical Left in Congress shut down the government. HUD will use available resources to help Americans in need."
Wednesday morning, a banner added to the top of Department of Justice websites reads "Democrats have shut down the government" with a link to its shutdown plans.
But when did trump actually care that he is breaking the law? Who is there who can hold him accountable, other than the compliant USSC? The Dems seem to be in disarray and thrashing themselves, instead of trump. The country is sliding rapidly into an authoritarian maze. I see National Guard units stationed at blue state polling stations in 2026. You think the USSC will do anything about the voter intimidation?
