state audits and data compiled by groups across the political spectrum have found no indication that noncitizens are voting in large numbers.
Basically, rules imposing additional requirements on voter registration prevent vastly more citizens from voting than noncitizens, since the latter aren’t trying to vote.
I agree, shutdowns suck, but a month or 2 of crappiness is nothing compared to years of a Trump presidency.
If a shutdown is what it takes to seal a Harris presidency, so he it I say
On the surface, you’re right.
However, to some people, that month or two of pay could be the difference between having a home or not and, depending on where in the country they live, that could be permanent or even deadly.
I agree with you that Trump and his fascist cult MUST be stopped, but we still need to be careful not to irreparably harm innocents in the process…
I don’t think we need to shutdown the government to beat Trump.
Maybe, but why interrupt our enemies when they’re devouring each other / making a mistake?
Because a government shutdown could permanently destroy the lives of people who are dependent on the government to function, stave off homelessness, or even survive.
