A Hostage They Can’t Shoot

The Washington Times reports the U.S. Senate has voted to override a filibuster and will approve short term (till Feb. 8) continuing funding. I like this Majority Whip John Cornyn quote, characterizing the Democrats’ failed tactics:

They’ve got no exit strategy. They have no plan. You really need to ask yourself how does this end, and they really can’t answer that question. They can’t get what they want. They’ve taken a hostage they can’t shoot. 

Proving it truly was the Schumer Shutdown.
