TKC MUST READ!!! KANSAS CITY CONGRESSMAN CLEAVER TALKS PREZ TRUMP SHUT DOWN TEMP SOLUTION!!!



An important note on the nation hopefully getting back to work soon from Kansas City's top ranking elected official . . .

Congressman Cleaver Released the Following Statement Regarding President Trump’s Announcement to End the Government Shutdown

(Washington, D.C.) – Congressman Emanuel Cleaver, II released the following statement regarding President Trump’s announcement today to end the partial government shutdown.

“I am pleased that President Trump has agreed to reopen the government so that federal workers can get back to work and receive the paychecks and backpay they have rightfully earned. 

Over the past 35 days, I have advocated for this very move: reopen the government and allow Congress to conduct negotiations on border security through the regular process. But let’s be clear, this continuing resolution is for just three weeks. Although the President stated he was willing to shut the government down yet again if Congress does not bend to his will, I hope he has learned that it makes no sense to shut down the government. 

We have seen the emotional damage the shutdown has caused, not just for the 800,000 federal workers, but the more than 1,000,000 contract workers and their families as well. We’ve heard security experts relay the significant impact shutdowns have on national security. We’ve heard from economic experts convey the harmful effects this shutdown will have on the American economy. Governing by shutdown, as we’ve learned time and time again, isn’t only irresponsible, it’s untenable. We expect the continuing resolution to clear the House and be signed by the President today. After this bill is signed, I look forward to working with both sides to fund a bill for Homeland Security to ensure reasonable border security.”

  3. Dem's won nothing. Workers would be twisting and swinging in the wind while the Dems smirked so Trump revised the deal and temporarily reopened the Gov for business.

  6. Trump got taken to the woodshed by Pelosi and the Dems. They beat him like a rented mule! Such a strong negotiator! No concessions, no money for the wall. A complete and utter failure!!!! MAGA!

  9. The Texas Department of Public Safety has identified 58,000 non-U.S. citizens who voted in one or more Texas elections, according to Texas Attorney General Ken Paxton's office. And that is just in Texas.

    This is why we needs secure borders and tough immigration laws.

    Trump is going to use the powers afforded to him under the laws and the Constitution of the United States to address this emergency in 3 weeks when Cleaver and his fellow dumbocrates fail once again to produce what they said they would do in years pass.

    Trump agreeded to a short-term solution to re-open the government when it became clear too many areas of law enforcement, officials were not being able to do their jobs at full capacity.

    Pelosi might think she has won but in the end I think we will see she has won nothing. Never before in American history has a major political party put the interests of lawbreaking foreign nationals ahead of the interests of law abiding Americans. Yet that is exactly what the Democrats have done in holding the government hostage to extract special favors for illegal immigrants.

  12. No wall. Obamacare still in place. No infrastructure projects. Foreign wars still going. Massive spending and new debt.

    2 years in and nothing but broken promises from Trump. Complete failure. Sorry folks. No more "winning". MAGA is done.

  13. 6:46 you loser your wrong. Over the past year, Trump has turned the economy around. Overall unemployment and female unemployment ar at an 18-year low, unemployment insurance claims at a 45-year low, business and consumer confidence at or near record highs, and black and Hispanic unemployment at the lowest levels ever recorded. Jobs are growing and wages are rising.

  14. Super Dave, are you calling the President a LIAR?
    He has stated several times over the past month (plus) that he was proud to take "ownership" of the shutdown, but now you're telling us that he is a BIG FAT LIAR, and that the minority Party in the House of Representatives forced this shutdown!

    If you don't like this Country, and if you don't think our President is truthful, leave (if that is, you can find some place that will let you in).

  15. Worst stock market since the Great Depression, no money for the wall, huge tariffs on everything, terrible trade imbalance, almost everyone involved in his campaign has plead guilty or been indicted for multiple felonies, the world laughing in our face, ISIS still killing Americans, still involved in forever wars, he lost the house, yea....so much winning.

  17. President Trump, please get that wall. Thanks for getting my family a check. But don't stop trying to get the wall. Mr Cleaver, how about you getting off your ass and doing your job for once you flipping phony. Next time our President shuts the country down I hope you as well go without pay and then maybe you'll do your damn job.

    ReplyDelete
  18. It's surprising that Cleaver is still around and has the time to write this letter.
    You'd have to guess that he's be in Atlanta with the King family celebrating the $350,000/year windfall he just helped them get from screwing over the taxpayers in KCMO.
    Champion grifters have to stick together.

  19. You cult 45 dummies know that in 3 weeks the Dems will still not allocate the wall money right? Then he can either shut the govt down again, which he will never do after this ass kicking, or invoke a national emergency which is likely going to happen. You know that by simply declaring an emergency will not get the wall built right? You know the Dems will sue and any and all funds Trump plans to divert will be held up while an injunction is filed, and held up in the courts until Trump is indicted, quotes, or loses the election. That wall is never getting built. He lost bigly!

  20. 7:00 she did, and she made it clear she wasn't going to accept any blame but it was her party that caused it all. Dave is trashing the democrats who are to blame. Our President took the blame but the democrats plainly are the cause of the issue.

  21. 6:54 weighs in with the fake stats.

    Job growth slowed last year as Trump's tariffs begin to end the 9 year Obama recovery. Trump inherited a long recovery and is killing it. The stock market was down 6% last year. GDP is not the 5% or 6% Trump promised.

    The corporate tax cuts triggered nothing besides stock buybacks. CEOs gave themselves big bonuses, but real wages for everyone else are flat. Trump's shutdown and not paying the Coast Guard and law enforcement only proved people are still living paycheck to paycheck.

    Even by your own 18 year unemployment stat, best case is things were actually better under Bill Clinton. MAGA lost and "your" wrong.

  22. This is why democrats can't get anything done they are stupid.
    Jack, a handsome man, walked into a sports bar around 9:58 pm. He sat down at the bar next to Alexandria Ocasio-Cortez and stared up at the TV as the 10 o'clock news came on.
    The news crew was covering a story of a man on a ledge of a large building, preparing to jump. Alexandria looked at Jack and said, "Do you think he'll jump?" Jack said, "You know what, I bet he will." Alexandria replied, "Well, I bet he won't." Jack placed $30 on the bar and said, "You're on!”
    Just as she placed her money on the bar, the guy did a swan dive off of the building, falling to his death. She was very upset and handed her $30 to Jack, saying, "Fair's fair... Here's your money." Jack replied, "I can't take your money. I saw this earlier on the 5 o'clock news and knew he would jump."
    Alexandria replied, "I did too; but I didn't think he'd do it again." Jack took the money. Alexandria went back to work in the U.S. Congress.

  25. I support the President 100 percent. Finally a President that puts the American People first. Our President is the only one that cares about paying these government agencies affected by the shutdown. Democrats are unmerciful and are ruining this country. Thanks for being the bigger person and making sure these important agencies get paid. Mr. President, you are doing what’s right and sometimes you have to make tough decisions to make America great again. That’s part of being a leader. You have lowered the unemployment rate and more people are working more than ever. Your doing a great job and never lose who you are. Remain true to yourself despite all the negativity in the world. Just always do the right thing no matter what it costs you. Keep the American people first always and abide by the constitution at all times. That will protect you and guide you as President. As a fellow veteran, I’m proud to have you as a commander in chief. Keep the faith in God and it will all work out because light always prevails in the end.

  27. Pelosi just dog walked Trump on this shutdown. As if that wasn’t delicious enough, she also gets to impeach his dumb ass too! You can’t make this shit up! She owns him!!! You just know it’s killing him too! She can’t be intimidated. A childish nickname is no match for neuterin’ Nancy!

  28. "Good news for George Herbert Walker Bush:

    As of today, he is no longer the biggest wimp ever to serve as President of the United States."

    MAGA is done. Those cheering the shutdown and the fake reduction in workforce can pack up and go home now. The failure is complete.

  29. The tragedy in all this is that the greatest country in the world is going to hell while its two political parties do nothing but bitch at one another. In a perfect world, I would love to see everyone from the president to every member of Congress, both GOP and Dem kicked to the curb and replaced with middle class Americans from both parties. REAL people know how to work together and compromise. During WWII “the greatest generation,” black and white, men and women, GOP and Dem, turned this country into a superpower. Everyone in the world admired and respected us and for good reason. It’s a damn shame that the TRASH that occupies DC, including Trump, Pelosi and the whole outfit, are doing their best to ruin our country and are succeeding more everyday. People need to start looking at middle of the road independent candidates and let the two party system go to hell.

  30. Trump owned by a Nancy girl.

    She told him no SOTU speech.

    He caved. Taking away TV from a child was the answer.

  31. The dummocraps have one thing to blame for their lowlife behavior of putting themselves above everyday ordinary Americans who are the ones that make America great, not them, their pure unadultered hate of one single person, the one who is actually trying to do good for everybody, they could care less about anything but their wealth and power and have endangered and threatened an entire country for what? People like aoc are starting to become popular because of the dummocraps who really are too stupid to realize they are making things worse for what, greed, power and control. The dummocraps are anti America. #timetowakeuppeople
