Up to date facts of Democrats shut down of government.

[Robert W]

The news allows Democrats in the house and Senate to plainly lie to you. Why would the media play a key role in helping Democrats lie to the public? For one reason, Democrats decided years ago that when they control the news, they own the USA.

So, let's post only facts and you judge for yourself.
