“As the government shutdown enters its fifth week, we wonder when Democrats in Congress will regain touch with reality, or if that’s even a thing for most of them anymore. LAX shut down for hours last weekend thanks to an air-traffic-controller shortage; flight delays and cancellations will only get worse nationwide the longer this goes on. And the pain is starting to hit what used to be core Democratic values: Food stamps (SNAP) won’t be funded after this week, nor Head Start.” [editor’s note: The Republicans control the White House and both houses of Congress. They can end the shutdown any time they want it ended. Right now, they don’t want it ended – TLK] (10/27/25)
