What I think people fail to understand is that shutting down the government is a hostagetaking situation. And hostagetaking scenarios only work if the other party cares about the hostages. The reality is the Democrats have limited leverage because the Republicans don’t give a damn.

I am absolutely concerned that there will be large scale operations in one or more theaters and that there will be some catastrophic loss of life us service members and potentially, hostagetaking. When blood lust is not enough anymore, what then?
I think we're going to get a high profile special operations raid failure at some point in this administration simply because Donald got addicted after Venezuela and is going to keep spamming the SEAL button until it breaks and 2029 is still a long time away.

So much evil in this situation that cannot be remediated by the steel. The impact of terrorism never ends. Hostagetaking and torture and holding human remains hostage have no place in this world. I pray for their healing knowing they will always carry these scars.

I’m so tired of this hostagetaking attitude fringe left to keep having. They’re zero help and they don’t show up to vote so why the fuck do we need them?

The problem with this theory is that we keep testing it and testing it, and this sort of hostagetaking doesn’t sway primary voters, but does seem to convince a lot of voters to sit the general out or vote third-party

Hey! I hadn’t found your account yet so I’m glad I saw this and, yes, republicans cannot govern. Every single time they’re in power we end up with these hostagetaking fights where the energy of the fight is around, which Americans are going to lose benefits. These people are awful.

No, ICE should be in jail arrested by the local authorities in Chicago. They show no identification of themselves as any kind of federal agent. They do not show their faces and they do illegal kidnapping and hostagetaking. They should be incarcerated for life

This has backfired spectacularly! They've made Rep Collier our biggest hero now. The world is watching the hostagetaking. She will NEVER sign. Who's in charge of her kidnapping? Has she any protection? I don't trust them. #ReleaseNicoleCollier
Huge applause from crowd outside the Texas House after Rep. Nicole Collier, who spent the night inside after refusing a police escort, briefly appeared from the hallway into the chamber.

Hostagetaking is horrendous, barbaric and morally and ethically damnable whether soldiers or civilians or cities or an entire population.

It sure is going to be interesting to see that happen. With the numbers showing that a majority blames the Republicans it’s not the hostagetaking situation that he thinks it is. It’s going to make the administration even more unpopular.

Apparently Photobucket has been begging me for $5/month because "they no longer support free accounts". Which, lol and lmao, but don't you just love when they don't let you export your stuff?

If the deal is what’s being broadly reported, it’s a plain W for Biden - minus the hostagetaking this is the type of deal you would expect in a divided government, but there’s very little hugely objectionable to Dems in it while Rs got virtually nothing large
