At a time when the Republicans want to twist the nuts to the Democrats to those who love the government and their natural aversion to work stops, the Trump administration stumbled conveniently on a new legislative interpretation, which, as it threatens, can deprive federal employees of wages after stopping work.
The law on fair handling of civil servants of 2019 guarantees that all federal employees receive paying off by retroactively after the termination of allocations. Trump administration, Through the draft Notes of the Office of Management and BudgetHe reveals his plans, arguing that this law is applicable only to quarantine in 2019 and that the congress should allocate money specifically to reimburse the federal leave.
“The alleged“ New Legal Analysis ”is, expressed by the technical legal term, the Nonsense of the Dog,” the former chief legal adviser of OMB Sam Bagenstos wrote on Bluesky. “In fact, the law states that when Congress adopts a law that terminates the law, dismissed employees receive payment as soon as possible.
Senator Tim Kane (Democrat from Virginia), who represents a disproportionately large number of federal employees, threatening Legal actions.
Speaker Mike Johnson (Republican from Los Angeles) is perplexed, shrugging his shoulders that this newfound information had just reached his table, but, oh my God, he wouldn’t like it if federal servants were paid.
President Trump, as always, voices barely veiled strategic maneuvers under this new legal interpretation.
“I can tell you the following: the Democrats have subjected many people with great risk and danger, but it really depends on what you are talking about,” he told reporters. “But for the most part we will take care of our people. There are people who really do not deserve care, and we will take care of them differently.”
Trump and OMB Director have already confused his simple messages: we, adults in the hall, would like to open the government again and begin to work for the benefit of the American people, but the democrats are rebellious hooligans – with their thirst for blood to use the shutdown as a weapon. The VOUT publicly announced the retention of federal funds from the Blue States projects, and the administration continues to declare that it is going to start mass dismissals (which have not yet been materialized – at least one agency has been employed). Restoration previously dismissed employees).
This makes their turn as a party opposing the closure, even more dangerous when they continue to use it (or threaten to use) in order to indulge in one of their favorite hobbies: cruel treatment of civil servants.

Bond: OPPO above all
The Prosecutor General of Pam Bondi on Tuesday was present at the hearing in the Senate Law Committee, which were in the focus of attention in Washington, the District of Colombia. Epstein, political persecution, Tom Homan's money in a bag – many democrats sought to put pressure on her. The Republicans prepared for the story of political problems, announcing on Monday that the FBI checked the recordings of telephone conversations of several legislators as part of the investigation of the uprising on January 6.
In the end, Bondi almost did not testify, either refusing to answer, or evading the questions of the Democrats.
The Prosecutor General held most of the almost five-hour hearings, personally attacking Dick Durbin Senators (Democrat from Illinois), Richard Blmental (Democrat from Connecticut), Maiy Hirono (Democrat from Hawaii), Alex Padille (Democrat from California) and Adam Shiffonia) and Adam Shiffon (Democrat from the state of California) – instead of answering their supervisory questions. Each time she came across questions that she did not like or she did not want to answer, Bondy came off from a bunch of studies of the opposition in the style of the election campaign, with whom she was ready to reject and attack, playing her audience in the White House.
“I would like you to love Chicago as much as you hate President Trump,” Bond Durbin said when Durbin tried to ask her about the placement of the National Guard in Chicago.
(She used the same phrase, but instead of the name of another city to evade questions from other democrats.)
“I have been working in this committee for more than 20 years. It is precisely such evidence that you expect from this administration,” Durbin said in response. “A simple question about whether they had a legal justification for the introduction of troops of the National Guard, it becomes the basis for a personal attack. I think this is a legal question. This is my responsibility.”
Bondi also repeatedly tried to blame the Democrats of the ongoing closure of the government, saying that they were the reason that law enforcement agencies and its employees in the Ministry of Justice worked without payment. Despite Bond's statements, the Republicans control the White House, the Senate and the House of Representatives and refuse to negotiate with the Democrats.

Rino Marjori Taylor Green
The day is unusual when both the leader of the minority in the Senate Chuck Schumer (Democrat from New York) and the leader of the minority in the House of Representatives Hakim Jeffris (Democrat from New York) approvingly quote the words of representatives of Mardzhori Taylor Green (Republican from the state of Georgia).
On Monday evening, Green wrote on Twitter in support of the extension of subsidies of the law on affordable medical care, writing that although she does not like the law on healthcare, she supports extension to prevent a sharp increase in insurance contributions.
“Not a single Republican in the leadership spoke with us about this and gave us a plan for how to help the Americans cope with the doubling of their insurance premiums !!!” She wrote.
“I think this is the first time I say this, but on this issue, a member of the House of Representatives Green said this perfectly,” Schumer said on Tuesday in the Senate. “The representative of Green is absolutely right.”
During his press conference on Tuesday, Jeffris supported the poster with Green's tweet: “Hello, this is your daily reminder that insurance has become inaccessible to most Americans. Health, cars and house. I would like my party to make this a priority.”

Vice President of the summit
On Monday evening, the former vice president of Kamal Harris held a public conversation With Nafis Collier, the star player of Wnba as part of Minnesota Lynx and vice president of the Union of Players.
The league is currently covered by a labor struggle, since players are negotiating on higher salaries and a more fair agreement on the division of income in their collective agreements (WNBA players receive 9.3 percent of the league income, and NBA players – 49-51 percent). The negotiations that had come to a dead end flared up last week, when Collier used her output interview to call the Wnba commissar Katie Engelbert, who rejected fears about the ridiculously low minimum salaries (Catlin Clark earns about 78,000 dollars a year) and allegedly stated that the players, including Clark, should be “grateful” for the platform, which is provided to them by the League.
“We have tried to conduct these conversations for so long and move the needle at the meetings that we were going to hold with the League and with our leadership,” Kollier said during her event with Harris. “I saw that nothing is changing. The coaches and players, both winning and losing, complained about the same thing again and again.”
“Regardless of whether they were going to destroy me for this or people were going to support me, I felt that what I was doing was right,” she added. “I felt that it was necessary to say.”
Harris called Kolere “a living example of courage.”
The trade union of players and the league must agree on a new collective agreement until October 31; If the agreement is not reached, the locout may follow.
