The United States government runs out of money this week unless Congress gives the president something to sign. And we can all be grateful that the Republican majority in the House of Representatives has things in the proper perspective. From the Washington Post:
“People want to give Mike grace to be able to move forward. But at the end of the day, we have a job and the clock is ticking. You’re storming the beaches of Normandy and somebody goes down, you don’t sit around and form a committee,” Rep. Chip Roy (R-Tex.) said about Johnson’s approach to listening and incorporating requests. “Time is ticking and we got to go get it done.”
(Did Congressman Chip ever “storm” anything more dangerous than a buffet table? Please. Pull the other one now.)
