        looking like it's going to be for awhile... tsa agents walking off the job is actually more pressing at the moment, but people not getting refund checks in a couple months will start riots

        So publish the panic piece on Feb 1st when it is actually applicable. Doing it Jan 4 is political propaganda, not news

        If the IRS isn’t back to work by 1/15 there will be delays in processing returns, payments, and refunds.

        All Democrats had to do is agree to fund the border wall. They chose not to WHILE voting against even closing immigration loopholes. This is all on the Democrats.

        Shutting down the Government for years??? China, Russian, Iran, North Korea--they need not fear or seek our demise. We've got a mentally unstable and irrational person at the help, who can do more damage from the inside.
