Reminders:
1. Republicans could pass the continuing resolution with a simple majority in the Senate right now but are refusing to do so. For reference, they passed the initial One Big Beautiful Bill Act this CR stems from with a simple majority of 51 two months ago.
2. There is nothing preventing the House of Representatives from reconvening during the shutdown, and as Speaker Mike Johnson has full power to block any attempts by Democrats in the House from introducing an amended resolution.
3. Speaker Johnson refusing to reconvene the House does allow him to delay swearing in Adelita Grijalva, a Democrat representative who won her special election last week. She has also pledged to be the 219th signatory of a petition to force a House floor vote on a bill that would require the DOJ to release all files connected to the Jeffrey Epstein child sex trafficking ring.
4. Speaker Johnson refusing to call the House until the shutdown ends also forces Republicans in the Senate to only offer the CR as it exists now and prevents them from making any changes or amendments, as doing so would require those amendments, once passed, to go back to the House for approval. Meaning even if Senate Republicans wanted to compromise to gain the last handful of necessary Democrat votes to end the shutdown, Speaker Johnson has unilaterally made it impossible for them to do so.
5. A continued government shutdown allows the Bureau of Labor Statistics, under the umbrella of the executive branch headed by President Donald Trump, to postpone releasing September's unemployment and inflation reports. For reference, their August report showed inflation and unemployment ticking up to their highest levels since Trump took office.

Reminders:
1. The government is shut down because Democrats won't vote to fund the government.
2. Democrats are trying to force the use of the nuclear option so future budgets will pass with no opposition
3. Both sides are happy about the shutdown
4. Retards are bending over backwards trying to blame this on Republicans to influence the midterm elections.
5. OP is a brown terrorist dyke that firebombed Teslas and routinely attacks ICE agents.

Reminder: if the House reconvenes, the Speaker will have to swear in the new Democratic Congresswoman and Dems will have enough votes to force the release of the Epstein files ... and the GOP will do everything to prevent that.That's what this has always been about.
