Reading every headline & lede that invariably starts with “Democrats block GOP bill”, I’d like to remind everyone, the #media especially, that Trump’s party — the #RepublicanParty — controls the #WhiteHouse & both chambers of #Congress.
This shutdown is their doing.
By all accounts #Trump & #Project2025’s #RussVought absolutely wanted it because it consolidates #power under the #ExecutiveBranch, exactly what they have been working for.
