McConnell pushes for another Govt Shutdown - Ombligo - 09-22-2020
With only nine days until a government shutdown, McConnell rejected an emergency funding measure put forth by the House. The GOP Senate dictator claimed it was because the measure had no funding for the Commodity Credit Corp. The fund is generally regarded as an untraceable slush fund for the Republican party.

I might actually welcome such a shutdown as it would most likely damage the GOP election hopes.

Recess appointment for the court.

Bingo. At this point, I'm in favor of a shutdown, because it will hurt the Republicans across the board at this point.
