Must See Matt Gaetz … How The UniParty Uses “Shutdowns” And “Continuing Resolutions” To Avoid Accountability And Spend, Spend, Spend

Watch Matt Gaetz Destroy Maria Bartiromo

Indeed!
All we hear from the “Government Firsters” is that this 25% shutdown is such a horrible situation (e.g., US Senators Jeanne Shaheen and Maggie Hassan) – “WE’RE ALL GONNA DIE!!”).
