Basically the existence of commercial air travel in the United States right now rests on the willingness of a bunch of security guards to show up to work to do a thankless job, for no pay, indefinitely, in the middle of the hottest private sector job market anyone can remember.

Shanahan is the first acting defense secretary since 1989. Even when they're pushed out, defense secretaries have traditionally stayed on until the next one is confirmed so that DOD always has a permanent leader who can manage global and domestic crises https://politi.co/2Vti8o3 https://twitter.com/realDonaldTrump/status/1081305634115674112 …

Trump also claimed that McConnell wasn't at the Rose Garden presser "because he's running the Senate." Except the Senate isn't in session. And McConnell's spokesman told reporters he'd have stayed *if he'd known* about the presser. Awk.

Among the president's false claims: - "new border wall" in San Diego (built in 1990s, simply updated) - furloughed federal workers want him to keep it up (polls show the opposite) - Obama told him DACA "wasn't going to work" (he didn't)
