How uncomfortable would she be if she had to go for a month or longer with no announced end date with NO income? Asking American families to do that is obscene.

Wow! They get paid back That will help when they don’t have food or heat etc… 🤷‍♀️🤦‍♀️

Yeah that must be the criterion. Everybody survived. First, she has no idea whether everybody survived or not. Second, everybody survived the Stone Age. Doesn't mean we should have a Stone Age every other year.

Because they just don’t care.

It wasn’t funny you bimbo! People were out of work 🤬🤬🤬

OMFG 🤦🏼‍♀️ Tell me you live in a protective bubble without telling me you live in a protective bubble

“Not a big deal, and to the extent it is a big deal, it’s all the Dems’ fault.”

Yep, working ‘hard’ at normalizing.

MAGA should turn off Fox and just watch their porn instead. We would be better off.

Fox News babe 😂😂😂

He’s a douche

F*ck them

It's nice that rich media whores can laugh at the misfortune of the poors

The poor shouldn’t be poor even though we in congress legislate to keep you bums struggling. We got one job while we’re in congress and that’s to make sure we end up rich.

Martha the asshole!

the people that think walls solve immigration also think vaccines cause autism and spread disease the stupidity is record-setting

He’s a corporate apologist from Delaware. Why do you think all the corps incorporate in Delaware. 68% of Fortune 500 co’s in Delaware 80% of ipo’s registered in Delaware in 2022.

🖕

Martha you are a total joke! What a loser.

'It's funny because it wasn't me' people are so selfish it makes me sick

The Platinum blonde network

Fox news psychopaths can't show empathy for civil servants who need that monthly paycheck to survive.

Parks department wasn’t an essential group. So when they were told to go home people came in & trashed the parks. It cost more to send them home than if they would have been paid & stayed there.

So says Mental Midget Martha MacCallum of Fox!!

She wouldn’t notice missing paychecks for a year. She spends more on makeup than we spend on mortgage or food.

She lives up to the stereotype.

Shutdown really ought to mean shutdown. Imagine if Repubs had to choose between funding government or having border guards not showing up for work. They would then truly be responsible for an open border. Why should those folks be forced to work without pay? How about no air traffic controllers?

Martha’s version of “ surviving it” is really skewed. Military personnel waited months for their back pay. In the meantime bills piled up and interest rates accumulated etc. That isn’t surviving it Bitch!

I think she meant that the rich survived it~just say it Martha!

Hateful bitch

You'll survive.

It cost taxpayers $5billion dollars so there's that

Ma’am STF! Wasted money on non-productive time and real people are put in peril because they are not receiving a paycheck.

STFU Martha! Are you going to say the same thing about spending & waste when trump wants to add to the debt by giving rich fucks like you more tax breaks? What's that? 🦗🦗🦗🦗

Tell that to all the federal employees (and their families) who had to go without pay fie that entire time. We never want to go through that again.

Martha's annual salary is $2 million a year. She’s an elitist who cares nothing about government workers.

Trump and the Republikan party brought us more of the trickle down garbage (and exploding the deficit) that they have been selling since Reagan. It never works. Don't be a sucker. We have the worst income inequality since the great Depression because of the Republikan party.

These smug, vainglorious, entitled, dispassionate people are appalling. What I wouldn’t give to have the opportunity 2 talk to her-5 min-about the real world and paycheck 2 paycheck people she knows absolutely zero about, or knows of + doesn’t care about. “Don’t mess w the momma bear” applies here.

Over a month (shutdown was 35 days) but doesn’t matter. Businesses legally aren’t allowed to skip payroll in the US. This is ludicrous. My son is a young man in the military by the way. He makes like $60k. He does fine but he can’t just not get 2 paychecks. He has rent, bills. People have kids.

She’s lives in a bubble.

What a moron

It is really starting to piss me off the way wealthy people think that the power company or gas company will just wait for their money.

Wow, she has a punchable face.

How can they still call it news?

Sure, just like people survived Trump's mishandling of covid. www.theguardian.com/us-news/2021...

Deranged lunatics

Marie Antoinette incarnate

Martha can eat shit. Last time around my DHS job was deemed essential...that meant going to work without getting paid. Thankfully my wife had a good paying job but some of my colleagues living check to check got squeezed pretty hard. Republicans/Fox are assholes.

Ridiculous fools

Exactly why I never watch Fox News. What a B!

Martha Mac Callum should have her pay held back let's see if she's ok with it

This is why Rupert wanted Lachlan to be the sole dictator of his empire. Prudence, Elizabeth and James said emphatically no - and won there case - for now.

When he said that it cost the country $11bn, she talked over him and insisted that nothing of any consequence happened. WTF? 😡

So happy it didn't affect her. Pathetic rewrite rationale.

I would be surprised if nobody died because of it. But of course, her friends were ok 🤮

FOX NEWS is toxic to our Country!

Martha, the perfect fauxer

Oh wow. I was way off then. Like in another universe

This is a person who's never had to worry about a late fee being the thing that makes their bank account go negative which in turn causes more fees and compounds the stress one already feels when they have to punch pennies. Fuck off, Martha.

Only because Biden is still president. They would be blaming Dems if trump was already there.

As I recall, Government workers were signing up for services from food banks, it was so bad.

Media is filled with exactly this type of privileged people

The family of somebody who didn't get to survive it, should run her over with a bulldozer, and laugh. It would make a great video on TikTok.

What an absolute bitch. Everyone gets paid back. She is so fucking clueless. The lower level enlisted troops barely make it to the next payday but she just laughs it up. Gross.

another entitled rich idiot on the magaT payroll. and they still dont understand why sane people despise them "Fox News "hard news" anchor Martha MacCallum dismisses the 2018-2019 government shutdown: "Everyone survived it. Yup! [laughs]""

hard shitting news, marta

She says debt is only due to spending. Drives me nuts. Cut taxes and then blame spending for increase in debt. I guess that nonsense does fool most people.

Remember this guy? Brandon, a boutique truffle farmer with a net worth of $5 million, saying he needed HIS paycheck.

She's just as bad as the rest of them. Maybe worse.

Ok...fire Congress..fire Trump. States will run themselves..bye USA..you won't be missed.

Chris’ face 🤣.

What an idiot!!!

She’s just another propagandist. Hard news my ass!

I took a weeks worth of groceries to my friend who was an attorney with the EEOC. These are not rich people who can go a month without pay.

She is clueless

A**holes-both of them.

And we're all made of stardust.

Fox blonde job prerequisite: brainless trollop. Minimum wage.

There were literally food lines for federal workers.

Especially White, entitled talking heads.

They only hire monsters at the Murdoch Machine

Again WTF

She realizes their trying to no cap the spending by ending research for cancer? She’s flipping the papers in frustration

She is full of shit.

Don’t bring inconvenient truths to Fox “News”

Lying bag of flesh

Let’s see how she does not getting paid for a few months.

prospect.org/politics/202...

Those damn family values! I feel it in her laugh! Feels Pro Family, doesn't it??

What an ass

I’m sure the military and border patrol will be delighted to target shoot at Mexicans and brown American citizens after they’ve overdrawn their bank accounts and stood in line at food pantries on Xmas. MAGA!

Earth to Martha: Do some research. Shutting down the government means something. But glad you were fine. 😵‍💫

DUMB BITCH

What a lovely Christmas present These people are so fuckin gross

Martha MacCallum makes all the blonde jokes true, even if she is a bottle blonde.

She and Fox are complete liars.

She seems nice! 🤣🤣🤣

DID "everyone survive it"? Do we know that? Here's some of the departments affected: Homeland Security, DoT, Ag, HUD, DoJ, Commerce, State, EPA, NASA and more. Over a month of shutdown for these. Where's the data saying no one ended up dying because of this?

We survived the Cuban Missile Crisis too. But we now know how close we came to missiles flying...

In debt through spending she says. I guess being in debt through tax cuts is better. At least when it's through spending, you actually get things to show for it.

It’s ok if you lose your good credit because you couldn’t pay your rent or bills… because did you die!?

Hey President Musk, please shut down Fox News. Our country needs a break from BS, especially, from all those blonde fake bimbo’s.

I didn’t know there was any ‘hard news’ at Faux News.

another script reader towing the corporate lie...same old shit

Overpaid fox employee says we can go a couple of months without pay. No worries at all.

It must be hard going up against the orange clown's public relations department

Nobody of any importance was furloughed. Maybe some librarians, some lowly clerks, and anybody else responsible for interacting with the public. Nobody of any consequence. We all survived, thanks to food banks.

Because he’s always been part of the problem.

She has no clue what it is like as a “non-essential” federal employee to be furloughed and not know when you can return to work. And who voted for that guy (undocumented immigrant who profits mightily off the US government) anyway? As far as I know he was not on any ballot.

Those dummies still vote against their own interests so it's like talking to a wall

Well said! Martha is a rich asshole.
