The Shutdown is Over, and Schumer's Toast

 By Rich Kozlovich

Well, in spite of all the support Schumer and the rest of the nitwits in Congress were getting from the media supporting the shutdown, it's over, and no conservative is shocked at the outcome.  In the past the traditional invertebrate Republicans would crawl to the Democrats begging for crumbs while giving away the store.  

But there's a new sheriff in town, who refuses to play their game, and their game strategy always needed the media to control the narrative in their favor, and it failed.  The media can no longer control the narrative as demonstrated in this interview where little Georgie Slopadopoulos got his marshmallows toasted by Treasury Secretary Scott Bessent.  Little Georgie's response?  “We Don’t Need a History Lesson Right Now”!   Bessent refused to be sidetracked forcing exposure of Little Georgie's hypocrisy.  Something these media types aren't used to.  

But they'd better get used to it, at least as long as they're still in business, because their halcyon days are over.    We always need a history lesson because history is everything, and the reason the left doesn't want a history lesson is because history and reality are the two greatest enemies of leftism since they never align.  

The shutdown was theatre by Schumer trying to save his seat in the Senate by appeasing the far left, the dominant force in the Democrat party.  But he couldn't defend his position with any degree of intelligence as demonstrated when Schumer fled the Senate when he was challenged by Ohio Senator Moreno over health care subsidies.

He's been abandoned by seven of his Senate colleagues, but but make no mistake, it's not only the left who are anti-Trump, but there are those who proclaim to be conservatives who hate Trump.  Mitch McConnell didn't hold power without support of people like Thune, Cornyn, Graham, Collins, Murkowski, and even Rand Paul with some of the positions he's taken in recent days.   

Now the Democrats are demanding Little Chuckie's head and now it appears AOC will be the next Senator from New York instead of Schumer, which will be interesting to watch as she faces people like Senator Kennedy.  Make no mistake, she's far dumber than Schumer, in spite of her degrees in economics and international relations from Boston University.   Lesson to be gleaned from that?   Don't send your kids to Boston University.
