Today marks the eleventh day of the shutdown of the US Government. At this point, it’s obvious that the fault lies with the Democrats because of their devotion to illegal aliens and Communism. They prefer their illegals over the American Citizen and they are bowing to the Communist contingent of the Party. However, it’s so much worse than that.

For four years, the Democrats maintained an Open Border policy. During that time, estimates of the number of invaders entering our country range from 15,000,000 to 20.000,000. They flew them all over the country on flights in the dead of night. Then they got upset when Southern states began bussing illegals to so-called sanctuary cities. In one case, the pro-sanctuary people of Martha’s Vineyard, after a bus dropped off a dozen or so illegals, they called in the National Guard to escort them away. I guess they are in favor of giving them safe harbor until they show up on their doorstep! Although, I sure Barack would of put up tents on his property for them. Yeah, right!

Of course, foreign gang members and cartel members were included with those who invaded our country. This antagonized our own gangs through out the Democrat run big cities, and the crime rates exploded. Then, the leaders of those cities decided to “hide” the crime stats by changing felonies into misdemeanors. Soros-funded District Attorneys and Democrat judges worked overtime putting hardened criminals back out on the streets. The crime statistics that came from the FBI was truly reflective of actual crime nationally. Some of the major cities, New York City and Los Angeles to name two didn’t turn in their numbers to the FBI.

The election of 2024 was about the illegal alien situation, crime and drugs, the economy, the national debt and the advance of Communism. Republicans ran on issues and Democrats just called them names. It turned out that the Democrats couldn’t run on issues because most Americans didn’t like the positions the Dems advocated! They wanted to keep the illegals and give them the vote. They wanted give them benefits meant for Americans. They had no problem with giving criminals their protection. They wanted to allow human trafficking and protection of pedophiles. They were in favor of a continuing $2 trillion deficit and unlimited spending for programs few actually wanted. Add in the proliferation of never-ending wars and you have the Democrat platform!

Thankfully, Donald Trump is our President. The Democrat Party is fractured. They have few moderates; most of them are soft Socialists. But now, they have a bunch of Communists running for control of the party. They still have nothing upon which to run.

That’s where we are now. Republican and Democrats weren’t serious about 12 funding bills again, for the 29th year (I believe), so we need another Continuing Resolution. The House of Representatives passed one. The Senate tried to pass a bill that added back $1,700,000,000,000 ($1.7T) for funding to illegals’ healthcare at our expense! That bill failed. The Dems call for unity as long as they get all that they want. Most Republicans don’t want to further bankrupt our country!

This is where we stand, The Democrats, after 11 days, have proven that it is easier to negotiate with a terrorist organization, Hamas, than it is to negotiate with Democrats! Schumer is trying to prove that he can be as Communist as AOC. It’s a manic attempt to garner what little power they can get. After all, When was the last time the Communist Party USA actually ran a candidate on their own Party?
