UPDATES
FYI, Senator Bob Menendez will be retried on the bribery case –
Golden State Times
8:20 pm. Golden State Times reported VP Pence has departed for
his Middle East Trip. This may be a good sign, that he does not believe a shut
down will take place.
9:05 p.m. – there will be no DACA deal!
9:05 p.m.– Senator Doug Jones:
“I’ll be voting for the CR”
So, This bad wolf may be turning into a good one!
9:50 p.m. - Democrats are obsessed with DACA but they are trying to save face with their type of deal making (ugh!) The Republicans are winning!
11:05 - Fake News is reporting there is a shutdown but votes have not been completed.
Note, President Trump said in SEPTEMBER to go ahead and have a shutdown, he was prepared to clean up the trash (not exact words) but that was THEN, this is Now - they drag it out because they knew the trash would be cleaned up. From what I have read, 30 politicians have left Washington, resigned. No doubt to dodge the indictment bullet!
So we are still waiting for the results. Time: 11:10 p.m.
12:02 a.m. - the GOVERNMENT SHUTDOWN HAS COMMENCED - yet the Senators are still there, still talking.
Updates will be provided on www.goldenstatetimes.com
12:20 a.m. - Mitch McConnell motioned for reconsideration and he is making his argument right now. "The Government may be shutting down but the Senate is not shutting down"
1/21/2018: Senate is meeting to reargue the budget, while they enjoy screwing the loyal people of this country, who serve others, not themselves like Schumer and his cabal.
The sooner they approve the budget, the easier it will be for us to forgive.
Senator Schumer is speaking and emphasized that several Republicans were against the Budget, aka "CR" as part of his argument.
1/23/2018. The Shutdown is over but negotiations continue, which is what President Trump recommended just before The Senate met to vote. Schumer said no. Schumer cost our government millions og dollars in lost money because of his temper tantrum.
They cut a deal, says Gary Franchi of Next News Network. But I don't have his link right now. This one is handy: https://www.usatoday.com/story/news/2018/02/09/federal-government-reopen-after-house-passes-budget-deal/322535002/
3/31/2018 - so if they passed a budget deal, why did Trump pass an Omnibus bill like Obama did, as a way to do what he wants, when he wants? This was all obviously planned by both parties, to repeat history. Seems like we don't have real Americans, we have stooges in Washington.

Democrats blamed Republicans when a shutdown occurred because
Democrats could not get their own way anymore - Republicans began increasing so
Obama was no longer getting slam-dunk legislation. THAT was Obama's fault for
that shutdown, just as it was Bill Clinton's fault for the HUGE costoly
shutdown during his administration - yet he got media to ADVERTISE that Tom
DeLay was the cause of the shutdown! Deception is no solution!
12:38 - Mitch McConnell now says he moves to change the voting date to Feb 8, 2018. (He moves to Table the motion to refer) Apparently that means the motion which they just voted on. And to refer to Feb 8.
Oh, how thoughtful of McConnell - to pick a date PAST the military pay period!
The military would continue to operate normally, at least in the near term, in the event of a partial government shutdown. All military members would be required to report for work as usual. Paychecks would be delayed only if the shutdown lasted beyond Feb. 1, because pay is issued only twice a month, on the first and the 15th.

Nevertheless, the sound judgements coming from the President’s
Administration are continuous.
The reasons Senator Casey
claim a shutdown is needed are preposterous!
1.
We want the US Government to pick up Minors’ pensions that their companies
promised
a. Mining is the most dangerous job ever
1. THIS IS AN EXAGGERATION! WHERE IS THE WORKERS UNION? THAT’S
WHAT DEMOCRATS DO BEST – SOCIALIZE EMPLOYMENT.
THEY LOVE UNIONS.
2. Why aren’t minors filing a
class action lawsuit?
3. This is obviously a smear
campaign against our Director of Economic Security, Mr. Cohn. He owned a mining
company that had suspicious accidents which supported the democratic agenda AT THE COST OF
LIVES. And several were injured – and
consider the great loss in assets! Mr.
Cohn did not do this to get some kind of pity party and then close down the
business and make a lot of money by liquidating. He had the business for
another ten years!
2.
“Health Issue” .
a. Community Health Centers need more money.
1. WTF? They get Medicare, they get Medicaid. They are low –budget organizations which do
not need as much money as a private practice!
Do they have to pay property taxes?
Do they have to pay any taxes?
No, they do not need more money! They get enough from Federal funding.
This is BS!
3. Haitians need health centers
1. I kid you not! That is one of the few
reasons he used which is beyond absurdity!

4. Voila! Military funding will but shut down! Certain Federal employees won't get paid! What a great way to destroy our economy!
5. There is NOTHING in the Trump Budget Plan that is not needed and certainly frugal! Yet Democrats want him to spend MORE!
Impending Shut Down is really pissing off a lot
of Patriots!
Video of Kirsten
Gildebrand:
So
far, there are 568 comments – at least 90% have told her off because we are
sick of this! No Shutdown should ever be necessary in a sophisticated
society!
My comment: That is an outright
lie, blaming Republicans! You are pathetic! The Democrats are causing the
shutdown because there are not enough Republicans to get it to pass. Congratulations,
you diiscusiting worthless government parasite! YOU are contributing to holding
our government hostage! Senator Claire McCaskill has created a bill to withhold
ALL Congress representatives' pay if they cause a shutdown because they prove only
that they are incompetent to do their freaking jobs! YOUR party caused the last
shutdown! What you want is blank checks - so you can embezzle, launder, fraud.
I heard Senator Casey complain about not funding unnecessary programs! And the
big elephant in the room is DACA. You should be expelled for stating this.
Danny Cirino No Senator! It is you and your
party and your New York colleague, Chuck Schumer who will be responsible for
shutting down the government! YOU choose to put illegal immigrants ahead of the
US citizen, US military and thousands of government workers and the services
they provide to our country. DACA does not have to be finished today...so your
statements are hollow.
Carole M Coyne Kirsten it is 100% avoidable
why are you Dems pushing this now? It has nothing to do with the budget. Fight
for Americans like you do for illegals. Always thinking of votes! 2020 will
remember you didn't care for Americans
Alex Panagacos Yes, a shutdown is avoidable,
stop holding the country hostage by demanding amnesty for illegal aliens. You
represent the American citizens of New York not illegal aliens, try putting US
citizens first for once in your life.
Stephanie Badi Its the
Schumer Shut Down.
Martin Murphy 324 million American citizens are going to suffer a Government shutdown to
protect the rights of 800k non citizens? What other country works like this?
Seain O Ceallaigh I think we need to do a recall vote on Gillibrand she no longer represents
the people who elected her.
David Mattice She should be taken out of office and Schumer should go to, then maybe we
can have a gov't that will work for the people and not for themselves
Mark Thomas
Wheeler To
those that don't know. A four page memo concerning the illegal FISA warrant
that Obama used to spy on the opposing party's candidate. The house ethics
committee read this memo and their jaws hit the floor. It was clearly a
treasonous act and our democracy is under attack! Its worse than anyone
thought. Dems are trying to stop this from being released! This affects ALL of
us!
Erika Greenberg I can hardly believe some of the commenters here. Totally disregarding
what's being said in the video and stuck in their own ignorance and bigotry. So
pathetic, and sadly, very representative of the beliefs that scumbag in the
whitehouse promotes. Good luck, Senator Gillibrand. Thank you for representing
ALL New Yorkers, with strength and compassion.
Mary Gilbert This is the 2nd item I have from her this morning on facebook. She is a self-serving
person; she is running for president. I wish all the people running for
president would wait until after the 2018 elections before they start this
every-day campaign messaging. I don't like Biden or Bernie and their
campaign messages, but hers I dislike the most because she takes up causes and
trys to make herself liook like the most caring and honest Senator in the
Senate. That's nonsence; she is hyper-ambitious person who will walk over
anyone to get to the top. New Yorkers, her constituents, know her better;
perhaps she should communicate with them until after the 2018 elections at
least. I wouldn't vote for her for president, I'm just one person though.
Danny Cirino No Senator! It is you and your party and your New York colleague, Chuck
Schumer who will be responsible for shutting down the government! YOU choose to
put illegal immigrants ahead of the US citizen, US military and thousands of

New York not illegal aliens, try putting US citizens first
Jade Davis France It's avoidable only if chubby little senators from New York decide to
represent American citizens instead of irresponsibly representing criminals.

John Lichak This pollution from Indoor woodboilers was avoidable but for 7 years she
has not even uttered a word. ! I asked her for help and got nothing ! https://1drv.ms/f/s!AnHB14Zawwm5kXvhwpTj9h-q4XXz
THERE ARE AT LEAST 568 DISGUSTED AMERICANS WHO HAVE POSTED ALREADY! WE KNOW THIS SHUTDOWN IS ILLEGALLY-BASED
DEMOCRATS WANT TO REINSTATE DACA, KEEP THE ABORTION RATE HIGH, AND FLOOD THE COUNTRY WITH REPLACEMENTS THAT THEY GET SOFT-KILLED, SO NOBODY WILL NOTICE!
This is a disgrace! The officials who fail to pass the budget
are using the government as a political weapon!
Bill Clinton did this! Obama did
this! Now the democrats in Congress are
doing this!
Please pray!
Father, I know that time means nothing to you. However, the older I get, it seems the faster it goes. When we are young we really don't pay much attention to time as it passes. unless we are wishing for time to pass so that we can experience something we are looking forward to. Too many of us take time for granted. thinking that we can put off things for a later date. So many forget that none of us are guaranteed tomorrow. Plenty people that woke up with plans for today have breathed their last breath and now face eternity with the choice that they made. For those that chose Christ's great gift they are glorifying your name and singing praises. However, those that rejected Christ's gift now realize what a terrible mistake they made. Please help those of us that are still alive to realize that only you know when our last day on earth will be and we need to be ready everyday to kneel before Christ as our Savior or judge.
You know that the Democrats are playing political games and are not working for the good of America. Please help people to realize that Democrats are fighting for illegals because they want their votes. We all know that illegals are not even allowed to vote, but that doesn't seem to matter to Democrats. These people are more concerned about keeping their control over us than they are about doing anything that would ever really improve the lives of anyone including the illegals. Please help more and more people to face this truth and show these Democrats that they are no longer going to support their evil actions.


It is so sad to see how well Satan has worked to deceive so many people. I know that the things you see going on breaks your heart because you love us all so much and only want what is best for us. Your desire is to bless us and not to punish us. Please open the eyes of our hearts, Lord, to see you as you really are and to see the truth about ourselves, as well. You are a God of love, mercy and grace, but you are also a God of wrath. You have given us a set of rules to live by and you demand punishment for the sin of disobedience. Because of your great love, you sent Christ to suffer that punishment for everyone that will turn to you in repentence. We continue to pray for a great revival to open the eyes of people to see how deceived they've been.

Father, you know that President Trump is doing a great job in trying to return America back to you and to undo the harm of the last decade. Please guide and direct him and keep him safe from all harm. Shine the light of truth to dispel the lies that are causing so much division. We ask that you continue to work to unite America as one nation under your authority once again so that we can continue to live in the freedoms that comes from you. In Jesus mighty name. Amen
