OldSalz The evil smirk the look of insanity

Cry babies!

Doing their own agenda, not the people's. Term limits is a must.

Bunch of babies

Typical Democrats. Obstruct to the end.

Love it. Trump and McConnell need to start feeling pain from ridiculous shutdown.

*in order to keep focus on stopping the shutdown and getting 800,000 the paychecks they were promised. (This is irresponsible journalism)

Why the hell do we even need politicians anymore? Direct democracy, vote with your phone. Afraid of hacking? Learn basic computer science and stop being afraid

Good for them.

There is no other way to deal with the pampered child who has never heard a no!

low

Will the Principal breakup the food fight in Washington.

Hey Chuckie how about we negotiate. We will reduce the amount from 5 to 3.5 billion and in exchange you Nancy and the rest of you left wing nut case go to Iran and get back the 1.5 billion Obama gave to terrorist.

Chuck petty

They would block a bill that cures cancer if Trump was for it.

Trump Derangement Syndrome... Its that simple. TrumpAddress buildthewall

kudos to TheDemocrats

Obstructionists all the way. Block any and everything for political reasons. Low life’s

Let him pay for that dam wall since he wants it so bad!!!!

They represent the people, not their own personal vendettas...

They blocked the Middle East bill until the Senate votes on the bill sent to reopen the government.

Kids in a sandbox!! A national disgrace and Chuckie has done nothing but become a millionaire as a politician!! Millions on a salary under $200,000. Explain that one They are all parasites!!

You mean like Trump not signing any bill that doesn’t include the $5+ billion for a wall? Good. Stay strong and don’t fall for his political stunt. Trump is to blame for this shut down. He owned it, so if you don’t blame him and him alone, you are...

Excellent, this should have been done regardless of the shutdown. It is unconstitutional. Why would we suppress companies from boycotting Israel because they are KILLING people, including children in Gaza?

Filibuster Schumer at again - TheDemocrats are obstructionist SchumerPelosiShutdown BuildTheWall SenSchumer MSNBC

Proves they’re just obstructionists

No it wasn’t a “Middle East” Bill. It was an anti-Israel Bill.

They are not doing it in regards to the border wall if it's unrelated. That's a pathetic excuse. CNN is logically challenged.

Does anyone see this wall will bring more problems built then non existence, check you history people, POTUS don’t no! This is’nt the answer but a gate-way to more problems for our country

Womp womp

Very good! Why should they give aid to other countries when Americans cant pay their bills because the president is holding the American people hostage, for a wall that Mexico was going to pay for.. open up government and take care of Americans first..

Schumer just lost a lot of the Jewish vote because he likes illegal immigrants, who can't vote vote, better.
