Ted Cruz is celebrating the thought of people getting fired because they don’t agree with him politically But you better not call him a fascist or anything
Cruz: "President Trump is going to use that as an opportunity not to tell people you're furloughed for a few days, but instead to send pink slips & to get rid of left-wing bureaucrats who are imposing left-wing priorities that are contrary to President Trump's priorities. I think that's fantastic."

Trump has decided that no jobs report will issue on Friday due to the government shutdown. But it turns out there is a different reason: that report will, when issued, be catastrophically bad.
CNBC: "Very disappointing. It's a weak number. This is private sector jobs for September. The total comes in -32,000. And that was a surprise because economists were looking for an increase of 51,000. Also, the revision was not good. August now showing -3,000 compared to the initial read of 54,000"

“If you call us fascists, we’re going to put you behind bars.”
Stephen Miller: "They say they are trying to kill the fascists & stop the fascists. It's deliberate. President Trump is saying that we as a nation are not going to tolerate it anymore & the joint terrorism task force at the FBI is going to find these terrorists & we're going to put them behind bars"

Poor science literacy is a major problem. In a large national survey, only 64% of Americans understood the statistical concept of probability, only 51% correctly defined an experiment, and only 23% were able to correctly describe the components of a scientific study. www.nsf.gov/statistics/2...

In another installment of our ongoing series Evil Ages You, let me remind everyone that Russell Vought here is 49 years old.
Any mass firing like this by Trump, as punishment for shutdown or otherwise, is deeply illegal—as Judge Illston ruled and SCOTUS did not disagree though lawlessly let the firings continue. Also, this is a sign not of strength but of Vought weakness. He REALLY doesn’t want Congress to stand up. 1/
