Unbelievable...I was trying to find out how much protein I should be consuming and was directed to govt website

[helpisontheway]

for a calculator. They had this at the top of the page:

“Due to the Radical Left Democrat shutdown, this government website will not be updated during the funding lapse. President Trump has made it clear he wants to keep the government open and support those who feed, fuel, and clothe the American people.”

This was on the USDA website. F….that…I’m not believing a damn thing on the website.

1. The VA sent out e-mails blaming Democrats for the shutdown. I suppose every government agency has.

[MaineNative]

17. When did that happen?

I am service-connected and didn't see that. Got a link?

[Kaleva]

[doc03]

31. I got an e-mail a week or so ago, that put

the shutdown on Democrats.

[Seinan Sensei]

26. VA Secretary Collins is one snarky SOB

[dalton99a]

2. They forgot to add his portrait to the website

[Blues Heron]

3. It's unreal that nothing can be done about this clear hijacking of our public resources

[travelingthrulife]

4. Our judicial system is just letting him run wild.

He needs to be removed from office.

[William Seger]

12. Something COULD be done -- it's called the Hatch Act -- but...

... the people who should be enforcing the laws are even more partisan.

[multigraincracker]

16. Vote Blue-mid-terms.

What you CAN DO.

[Kid Berwyn]

5. Get a screen grab.

It would be evidence for the coming trials -- and they will come for all these fascist traitors.

The Traitor Trump to members of the United States Navy:

“We have to take care of this little gnat that’s on our shoulder called the Democrats. They want to give all of our money to illegal aliens that pour into the country,” Trump said, making a flicking gesture from his shoulder as he spoke.

6. A clear violation of the Hatch Act. But who's to enforce it? nt

8. cdc.gov has a similar banner across all its stuff (eg descriptions of diseases)

"The Trump Administration is working to reopen the government for the American people. Mission-critical activities of CDC will continue during the Democrat-led government shutdown."

When it's Trump and Brainworm Bob trying to hack the CDC into little pieces, it's doubly offensive to plaster their partisan lies over what should be a factual site.

10. I feel anxiety rise when I read stuff like this

My anxiety level has increased a lot since January.....maybe because I'm 86 or maybe because reading Trump news triggers it!

[William Seger]

11. The only thing that could save them next year is lying their asses off

15. And I can't access

critical aviation safety information from the FAAs public database. This isn't your garden variety informaition, it's the technical data necessary for aircraft and part conformity. My head is about to blow.

[maxsolomon]

19. Yeah, it's every Federal website - except NHS.

They have something more rational up there, shockingly.

Elect a clown expect a circus.

22. US Dead on Arrival.

I went down to the sacred store
Where I'd heard the music years before
But the man there said the music wouldn't play
And in the streets, the children screamed
The lovers cried and the poets dreamed
But not a word was spoken
The church bells all were broken
And the three men I admire most
The Father, Son, and the Inventgor of Toast
They caught the last train for the coast
The day the music died

[Beowulf42]

23. The Republicans keep telling the big lie, that it's the Democrats who shut us down, just like Germany in the 1930s.

[spanone]

24. Weaponization of all of our government. Cheating fucks.

They hold the House, the Senate and the presidency and they blame it on democrats.

[GoodRaisin]

25. We have a criminal government that promotes their propaganda at every opportunity.

It is like an infestation of cockroaches. They need to be exterminated.

[Frasier Balzov]

27. Bobby says eat more road kill.

29. If I had some money to invest I would start a guillotine company.
