DHS’ website says that during a funding lapse, the department “may only continue ‘exempt’ activities such as law enforcement and maritime protection.”
So they're shutting everything down EXCEPT for the Nazi squads and killing people on boats outside of US waters.
But they won't get paid during the shutdown either way.
I bet they'd mostly do it for free, anyway.
And/Or rob the people they're kidnapping.
Someone had the foresight to give them a $50,000 signing bonus handcuff. Quitting will cost them the $50k that they've already spent so they're stuck
And I'm afraid giving back the lifted F150 they bought, with frame damage from rear-ending someone, isn't gonna cut it.
They've already been doing that second bit. Remember how they've been driving vehicles of people they've stolen away? It wouldn't surprise me to learn that they've been stealing personal possessions and identities.
They'll get paid for that time when it ends (aka when Cuck Schumer caves again, not even making it an entire pay period for them)
Let's go democrats, go for the record of keeping them shut down.
Countdown to the Dems folding a winning hand, and receiving nothing in return. It's all theater, they don't really want to stop any of this, not seriously. They just want power back so they can do their version.
Good. Shut it down forever
DHS' website says that during a funding lapse, the department "may only continue 'exempt' activities such as law enforcement and maritime protection."
Un-hunh. Press [X] to doubt. According to The Hill,
funding for key agencies such as the Transportation Security Administration (TSA), the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA) and the Coast Guard will lapse Saturday without further action from Congress.
The agencies that are the main targets of Democratic fury, however, Immigration and Customs Enforcement (ICE) and Customs and Border Protection (CBP), will be able to continue operations without much disruption. Both agencies received tens of billions of dollars through the One Big Beautiful Bill Act
Even this article says,
The shutdown is not expected to affect the Trump administration's controversial immigration enforcement campaign, thanks to the $165 billion cash infusion from last year's One Big Beautiful Bill Act, including $75 billion for Immigration and Customs Enforcement and $65 billion for Customs and Border Protection. The funding goes well beyond the annual allotments that the agencies typically receive and means they will be able continue operations despite the shutdown.
Happy Valentine's Day!
