Republican Senator Kennedy just blamed Trump for the government shutdown!
"The Democrats have offered to open up everything but ICE. Ted Cruz and I said, ‘OK let’s accept their offer…’ Senator Thune submitted that to President Trump. As is his right, [Trump] said ‘No! No deals with the Democrats.’ It would have worked. We could have had TSA paid by the end of the week but the President said ‘no deal.’”
This is the DONALD TRUMP SHUTDOWN!
Even Republicans are acknowledging it.
ICE = Trump-SSSteve Bannon: “We can use this, ICE helping at airports, as a test run, a test case, to really perfect ICE’s involvement in the 2026 midterms.
Mike Davis: “I think we should have ICE agents at the polling places”
Saying the quiet part out loud.
I'm going to need some examples of them taking down citizens in airports.ICE = Trump-SS
He will continue to deploy it against US citizens because the ones with the power to stop him don't care about you at all.
Could have had a deal to end the shutdown, but Trump would rather see images of ICE taking down citizens in airports than actually provide paychecks to TSA agents.
That's quite a campaign clip.Senator Chris Murphy: "The people we care about most, the undocumented migrants"
He actually said that
No, not SS. They were saints compared to Ernst Röhm and the SA (Sturmabteil) or Brownshirts. Look them up, because that's what ICE really resembles...ICE = Trump-SS

Just looked it up, looks like as of early 2026 his estimated net worth is over $500 million!This hypocritical, lying fraudster is worth $250 million (at least) and has voted against funding TSA ten times.
Workers in this very important sector of our government not being paid is absolutely ridiculous no matter what party you support. Unbelievable.
Rick Scott: The average net worth of a Democrat Senator is over $3 million and they are okay with TSA agents not getting paid.

Should literally put him straight into the wood chipper.NEW DETAILS: If not for ICE intervention this unvetted illegal alien pedophile released into the U.S. by Biden & the Democrats who raped a 5-year-old girl so bad she needed surgery to repair her genitalia, he would’ve been released under @GovKathyHochul’s cashless bail law.
sadly, it’s back to a goat show at ATL todayWATCH: CNN reveals that "more [TSA] lines are open than normal" at Atlanta International Airport after ICE agents were deployed. "There may be a celebration here at the airport!" "Almost no lines. No waiting. This is unbelievable at this point!"
