While the Dems are out there pretending that the shutdown has everything to do with Republicans and nothing to do with them, the evidence speaks loud and clear. This is why Speaker Mike Johnson said what everyone already knows to be true.

According to Johnson, the Dems are terrified of their “radical base,” which is why they are keeping the government shut down. That tells you all you need to know about the left’s priorities — which is that they don’t intend to represent you.

The reason the government is shut down is that they are demanding free healthcare for illegal aliens — despite their claims otherwise. So, if they are horrified at upsetting people, it would go without saying that the radical base they are beholden to might not be what you would call a “legal citizen.”

According to NJ Media:

Johnson opened the news conference just after 10 a.m. Tuesday, saying the U.S. is now in “Day 21 of the Democrat shutdown.”

“It’s now three weeks since the Democrats decided to shut down the federal government,” Johnson said. “And yet again, Senate Democrats voted to prolong the pain and keep the government closed.

“So far what this shutdown has caused to the people of this country is really unconscionable and the U.S. economy has now lost hundreds of billions of dollars. We have federal workers who are desperate for pay and uncertain the they will get their next paycheck.”

Actions speak louder than words — and in this case, actions, words, and inaction speak VOLUMES. The Dems don’t care what this is doing to the economy, as the best they can do is point the finger and blame the other side for their doing. This is them barely even pretending to care, as they fight to fund healthcare for foreign nationals who should not even be here in the first place.

Johnson again claimed that Democrats are demanding for “taxpayer-funded health benefits to be restored to illegal aliens.” He singled out Democratic leaders Chuck Schumer and Hakeem Jeffries for “giving into the demands” of their “far left base in New York and around the country.”

“And they’re demanding that we spend billions of dollars overseas for ridiculous programs that American people do not support,” Johnson continued. “It is unforgivable.”

The American people have made it clear that they despise illegal immigration. What part don’t the Dems understand? As Johnson said, “it’s unforgivable” that they have taken the country de facto hostage, as they fight for everyone but you. But what else is new?
