Secret Service agents won’t take a bullet for free. So it’s best to reopen that government 😂

Because they can’t pay their mortgage, buy food and gas! How would you feel? StopTheShutdown help

Anonymous agents?

All of secret service should go on strike! 😊

Democrats need to open government, stop the democrat shutdown.

Maybe Ms. Pelosi thinks the threat to President Trumpsky may come from the Secret Service agents who have not been paid.

Are they consciencious objectors? If so, they should look into contractor positions. The office they are sworn to protect has managed to cheapen the definition of public service....

rhonda_harbison They should take a fews days off. They have earned it.

Wish I had that job I'll work for free until the shutdown is over.... I love the USA and i like to keep the home land safe what ever it takes to stay on watch I'll do so....... I Support the LAW of America...

Just think if the money spent on illegal immigration was spent on people showing them the proper way to immigrate instead. We could up immigration 's in this country. That's all most republicans want. Just do it the right way.

As they should. They have more integrity than trump.

Ok not good

Well may I offer a suggestion? Pull tRump's detail first. I'm sure they'd appreciate it

Maybe they will cut off his phone...throw him in the WH basement...lock the door & the whole detail call in sick. Leave him there til he re-opens Govt. Or, better yet...turn him over to ISIS.

Bad morale and no money not a good combination soon the quality of work will drop then the mass call-ins...

Watch trump become the first (faux) president in history to sue the secret service because of something that happens while they are not being paid during trumpsShutdown

WE ARE ELDERLY AND DISABLED. NEXT MONTH WE WON'T GET OUR FOOD STAMPS. (PICTURE IS OF OUR FLOOR. DON'T FEEL SORRY FOR US, WISH US PLUCK BEFORE YOU WISH US LUCK. JUST COULDN'T GET THE STAINS OUT - 威廉)

Yes, when will the DemocRATS learn to cooperate?

Correct me if I am wrong, but did fakenews cnn ever, even once report about the moral for years of the United States Border Patrol CBP during the Odumbo years I know first hand just how low moral got for years when that fool was in charge LiberalHypocrisy maga trump2020

BS those guys are professionals and take their job very seriously. FAKE NEWS! HOLD FOR THE WALL!

I'm calling 🐂💩 on this article. These law enforcement officers are the elite and anyone showing low morale should be removed immediately.

What happens if they don’t go?

So democrats should fund border security. 81% of Americans want no illegal immigration and less legal immigrantion.

This is why the president has not left the WH to go golfing, he knows they no longer SIX him

Individual stories v individual stories?

Anything for a cheap story CNN. Bravo!

Nancy Pelosi is one of 435 in congress. She wasn't elected Speaker of the House by the people, she was given the position by 235 Democrats in congress. She's not the president. When are the people going to wake up and give her the boot?

We stopped flying to the Moon because the military is constantly increasing the costs of endless new wars all over the world, they starting new wars and continuing the old ones, we can't even fly to the Moon now, and to Mars ... But we very want it 🌒🌕🌘

Fake News,. MAGA

Put the wall $ in the legislation and move on - or generate clickbait stories for their benefactors in the MSM - Dems choice

“In CNN’s opinion” I think you meant to write, there may have been a typo when constructing this.

When is enough going to be enough? The Senate and Congress have kicked this down the road for over a decade. Barry did nothing. Senate did nothing. Congress did nothing. You weren't elected to get 're' elected. Do your f****** job.

Pelosi was right! Seriously I feel for the Secret Service. They have such an important and difficult job.

AKimCampbell They have literally missed one paycheck, 6 days w/o salary. Stop making shit up. It makes u look stupid. We know ur bias, but hold out hope there is, errr .... was intelligent life there.

The job of government is to protect ALL its citizens. Not just protect 800K workers that happen to have govt jobs. Build the damn wall SchumerPelosiShutdown

TRUMP considers himself to be 'Daddy Warbucks'! Perhaps he should foot-the-bill for his and his family's personal Secret service detail!

BUILDtheWALL

Dog whistle by cnn

FakeNews

Well if anyone would know the importance of barriers and the importance of security, it would be the brave men and women of the Secret Service. I'm sure most of them know what's at stake.

Says who ? CNN

We understand and you don’t have to work so hard, I’m pretty sure he can protect himself

Then tell your comrades pelosi and schumer to build the wall

So WheresMitch ?
