Hey GOP fraudsters - You’re 18 days late and $5.7B dollars short. End the TrumpShutdown or you’re all toast.

Vote Republicans out! They have went along with UNFIT DJT DISGRACEFUL acts.

Like with all good SenateGOP it's all about their pockets. If income is threatened they're willing to act. They're afraid to loose their 'get rich quickly' tickets. They don't represent the people. They're opportunist and self-centered. They are GOP.

Too early for such speculation.

Sounds like the a day late and a dollar short bring the bill to the floor open the gov

Gardner is toast in CO no matter what he does now.

All Republicans better think twice about supporting Trump. People are pissed about losing pay and are not going to forget.

I don't think there's a single politician in DC that's there for the right reason, all they care about is their own ass.

The Republican party has been destroyed by this president and administration. Why don't they care. America deserves better.

Profiles in Courage!

To little to late boys!!

Fakeooooooo

It shouldn't be about their job, it has to be about what is best for 'the people'

A little bit too late. These dead beat brought 800,000 workers and their families to the brink of devastation during the holidays, when they should be enjoying themselves. REMEMBER who did it. THE WHOLE DAMN GOP AND THEIR DEAD BEAT EGOISTIC NARCISSISTIC MORONIC PRESIDENT.

Distance is fine but I will tar and feather them with tRumps taint until each one of them is...UNEMPLOYED. I will NEVER forgive them for what they did to President Obama. Trumpshutdown TaintedRepublicans Obamacare

FAKENEWS Brought to you by the mouthpiece of the evil Progressives. They won't be happy until you're not happy !

N they will be voted out

It’s about time spineless jerks

Won't be far enough Tiger!

If necessary, Congress can pass a bill without the President's support. They can override a presidential veto and end the shutdown if two-thirds of each chamber of Congress agree. Sadly, the GOP would have to stop being shills for Trump and think for themselves. DREAM ON

The Emperor has no clothes & many more can see that now.

What to do? Our Fraud-in-Chief demands airtime to propagate his quest for bribes from construction contractors and prison companies...disguised as 'border security.' You can say no, and act ethically, but alienate his peabrained supporters. Screw 'em. Ethics it is! 🇺🇸😂🇺🇲

In the end it’s every rat 🐀 for themselves. leavethesinkingship

Pelosi wants to hold Homeland Security hostage and fund the rest of the Govt. The Dems stance right now, is to fund Homeland Security with a CR. How is that negotiating? Pelosi knows what her vote will be on the Wall now and a year from now. Do you think she will change her mind?

Have a few finally come to the realization there is no Republican party.

Lol. We have your number lump dickers. 🤣🤣🤣

NBCNews only way republicans will disagree with Trump is when they feel they'll lose their them out in 2020

Too late….you guys are next in 2020. Enjoy your time while you can.

BuzzFeed: Trump Directed Cohen To Lie To Congress About A Trump Tower In MoscowA BuzzFeedNews report, citing two law enforcement sources, says Michael Cohen told the special counsel that Donald Trump 'personally instructed him to lie' to lawmakers about negotiations for a Trump Tower in Moscow. 'Not Accurate' is VERY DIFFERENT from 'Not True . . . ' It seems to me that the Special Counsels office is just saying the leaks didn't come from them. Hahaha
