The US government shutdown extended into its 20th day on Monday with no resolution in sight, as a prominent Republican lawmaker publicly broke ranks with party leadership over the decision of Mike Johnson, the House speaker, to keep Congress shuttered for weeks.
Marjorie Taylor Greene, a representative of Georgia, on Monday morning criticized Johnson’s strategy, calling on the House to return to session immediately.
“The House should be in session working,” Greene wrote on X. “We should be finishing appropriations. Our committees should be working. We should be passing bills that make President Trump’s executive orders permanent. I have no respect for the decision to refuse to work.”
I can’t help but feel we are witnessing one of the greatest financial crimes in American history and there is silence in the media.
The shutdown will finish after maximum profits are reached.
I just wish we could get a progressive as committed to change as Donald has shown himself to be, or a Democrat that’s able to make health care personally relatable as well as MTG has done.
