Aww, what a clever little monkey. Make sure the government doesn't shut down and tank the republicans at the polls over the next month or so but also make sure the government DOES shut down to hinder responses on Jan 6 2025

Biden will still be President on January 6th. He can flood DC with national guard troops if he feels the need.

I'm just thankful that there's actual adults in charge this time around. Unlike last time, they no longer have the benefit of a co-conspirator in the Oval Office.

Getting appropriate resources in place when so many offices have furloughed much of their staff and are wary of any bad optics for having too many active staff? That slows down responses.

And you can bet that republicans (and fox and cnn) will criticize Biden for spending on security for Jan 6 regardless of who wins.

Ooooooh, 3 whole months. WTG Mikey. Perhaps you should also eat 1/4 of your food and sleep 2 hours a night.
