The galaxy brains working for Trump didn’t anticipate a shutdown or bother to educate themselves about the consequences. https://www.washingtonpost.com/amphtml/business/economy/millions-face-delayed-tax-refunds-cuts-to-food-aid-as-white-house-scrambles-to-deal-with-shutdown/2019/01/04/b5b58616-0fa3-11e9-8938-5898adc28fa2_story.html?noredirect=on …pic.twitter.com/JwFDlArDVc

I say this in all seriousness — the conservative obsession with AOC is one of the more enjoyable trivial parts of this website these days.

Yeah, to steal from
@jbarro, this is going to end with people marching on the White House. Relatedly, kind of wild to watch a president self-immolate out of sheer pique.https://twitter.com/damianpaletta/status/1081329731235016704 …Thanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -

Somebody needs to tell Cuomo about
@alon_levy’s blog and then suddenly New York could make real progress (he should maybe delete the Cuomo-bashing posts first).Thanks. Twitter will use this info to make your timeline better. UndoUndo -
Is the Metropolitan Transportation Authority staffed by idiots? I do not mean that as a rhetorical question. There is no non-embarrassing analysis of the L-Train shutdown cancellation. But I am ready to believe Cuomo made the right call, too late.http://nymag.com/intelligencer/2019/01/two-cheers-for-andrew-cuomo-subway-savior.html …

Remember that "pro-pedophilia" account whose tweets were being bandied about on Twitter in an "I can't even" manner last week? Yup, a 4chan troll.https://www.nbcnews.com/tech/tech-news/posing-gay-men-twitter-troll-goes-viral-attempts-falsely-tie-n954721 …

Note also this, about how JFK airport manages the shortage of TSA officers: "Officers from a morning shift were required to work extra hours to cover the gaps." The strategy is to require those workers who do show up to work more hours, but not pay them. How sustainable is that?

CNN:
@KSoltisAnderson: “Spoiler alert here—this is how it ends: something gets passed at some point. Pelosi & Schumer come out, give a press conference that says, ‘we have reopened the government & haven't given him his wall’... then Trump signs it & says, ‘they gave me my wall!’pic.twitter.com/LisUaELJqtShow this threadThanks.

TSA sick callouts at 300% of normal at DFW. You know who flies a lot? Members of Congress. I don't think Trump will be able to hold the GOP congressional line as long as everyone seems to expect -- shutdown is for symbolism, but its effects will get more real for MOCs & voters.https://twitter.com/tripgabriel/status/1081302833373294594 …

Obviously nobody would have argue that the videos should stay up (in their original context, with comments and links intact) BECAUSE a future Congresswoman might be in them. But that sort of unforeseen conversation is exactly what fair use enables!

You could probably get the necessary GOP votes in the House to override a veto by promising the $1.6B to accelerated renovation on gate 35X at DCA instead of the Wall.

Because they're required to, and because they have a strong expectation the shutdown won't persist that long and they'll collect their pay in arrears pretty soon ... unless they cease to have that strong expectation.https://twitter.com/JoelShoe/status/1081280517247590401 …

"Who needs the government anyway?" is a good glib line when all the "essential" employees are still working without pay. But it turns out, there are parts of the government that we will notice fairly quickly if they go missing.

I'm telling you, this thing ends with work stoppages at the airports and federal workers marching on the White House.https://twitter.com/Sarah_Boxer/status/1081279317303119872 …

Trump on whether he said shutdown could last months or years as Schumer related: "Absolutely I said that"
