    Why did Trump decide to push this issue after the Dem’s took control of the house? He had a republican house and senate for two years. Why is this now suddenly a crisis that requires a shut down affecting 800,000 federal employees? Are there ulterior motives behind the timing?
    Because he was about to fund the gov’t and then changed his mind b/c Rush Limbaugh criticized him for not sticking to his guns on the wall.

          Oh great food inspections are going to suffer. I feel safer already.

          Foreign food inspection continues, but the FDA’s domestic food inspection has effectively ceased due to the Trump shutdown. Roughly 7,000 of the agency’s 17,000 employees are currently furloughed and others are working without pay.

          “It’s not business as usual, and we are not doing all the things we would do under normal circumstances. There are important things we are not doing,” FDA Commissioner Scott Gottlieb told NBC News on Wednesday.

            I went out to lunch with 20 people on my team today, and got my food 10 minutes after everyone else because "the health inspector was in the house and was slowing things down". So I guess this hasn't hit NC yet.

                I am actually aware of this but still upset that I had to wolf down my Pad Thai in 5 minutes so I thought I would post it anyway.

                    Trump's numbers since the government shutdown are going the opposite way he would like, according to the RCP average of approval polls. Rasmussen showing Trump 9 points underwater between "disapprove" and "approve" is kind of tellling because they tend to always be the most favorable toward him on all the polls they track, and rarely show him more than 4 or 5 points under water.

                      What do you do if most of the white house has ben furloughed? Order out for Mickey-Ds... served on the silver platters.

                        Wow- and to think some people really thought they were probably going overboard calling Trump a kitschy, orange piece of white trash.

                        No-- please don't have the event catered by a local joint hurt by the shutdown. By all means-- get some burgers and shit the team could have gotten at a rest stop on the way to the White House.

                          Yeah, if it was the dems in charge the team would most likely be eating a big bunch of nothing burgers.

                          BTW, what happen with that NYTimes "BOMBSHELL" report? When do the impeachment hearings start? I can't wait for that cool cat Pence to be president!

                            Good one.

                            I'm confident Obama, Romney, George W., or Ross Perot would have at least treated them to a meal. I mean here they are one of the only sports teams to actually show up and this is what they get? Big Macs and Whoppers. I'm starting to think the Warriors knew something we didn't.

                              I’m enjoying reading all the libs that are now suddenly experts on college athlete nutrition. It’s like they think these kids, errrr finely tuned athletes, aren’t eating fast food at all and are instead micromanaging their food intake.
                              "Discipleship is not a spectator sport. We cannot expect to experience the blessing of faith by standing inactive on the sidelines any more than we can experience the benefits of health by sitting on a sofa watching sporting events on television and giving advice to the athletes. And yet for some, “spectator discipleship” is a preferred if not primary way of worshipping." -Pres. Uchtdorf
