Sen. Cory Gardner (R-Colo.), who faces a potentially tough re-election in 2020, says Congress should re-open the federal government, even without a deal on funding President Trump's border wall.

Gardner is the first Senate Republican to call for ending the partial shutdown even without a deal on President Trump's demand for $5 billion to fund a border wall.

"I think we should pass a continuing resolution to get the government back open. The Senate has done it last Congress, we should do it again today," he said.

Gardner says the onus will then be on Democrats to explain why they don't support more money for border security after they voted to spend an additional $46 billion on the border in 2013.

lets see how this briefing goes....

[Norah]

The volcano smoke of this wall shutdown fight is set to become a full scape eruption over subpoena power, privilege, investigative responsibility, and finances. Between unfilled posts, furloughed departments, temporary acting appointments, funding stops, and intransigent demands, our government is the most disfunctional and least operational it’s been in our lifetimes. Everything is a mess, but the pressure to act in a bipartisan manner has never been weaker for either side.

2019 recommendations: protective eyewear.

The goggles do nothing.

God help me, this is a perfect synopsis of our current state:

(on Pelosi) “The mother of five knows not to negotiate with an unreasonable child."

other than the type of accord that is signed at the end of a war where the loser agrees to pay reparations,

it's a basic premise of diplomatic negotiations that you need to strike a deal that allows both sides to walk away saving face

Trump completely dug in on the wall and there is no way the Dems will give it to him

this may get a lot worse for everyone before it gets better

the charm of watching the Trump trainwreck may fast give way to tangible fear if markets keep tanking

Funny how all of the Republicans with hard fights coming up are like "hey, let's work together!" all of a sudden.
