Damn disgusting media! If you read the small print below the photo, it reads: President Trump, with first lady Melania Trump, greets and hands out sandwiches to members of the U.S. Coast Guard, at the Lake Worth Inlet Station, on Thanksgiving 2017 in Riviera Beach, Fla. Now I see that the Washington Post changed the main photo to show President Trump in the Oval Office. They are STILL making their readers think HE made that statement! And their stupid readers will believe it! [link to www.msn.com (secure)] Last Edited by nutmeg on 01/10/2019 08:53 AM |

Quoting: Lady Jane Smith Granted, WHEN they receive back pay, they will likely need to reimburse the unemployment drawn. Exactly... "Not getting paid" is a misnomer... they're still getting paid... they just haven't received the funds yet. "Things are more like they are right now than they ever have been." - Dwight D. Eisenhower In religion and politics people’s beliefs and convictions are in almost every case gotten at second-hand, and without examination, from authorities who have not themselves examined the questions at issue but have taken them at second-hand from other non-examiners, whose opinions about them were not worth a brass farthing - Mark Twain it's all mental masturbation.

Because I have a banking relationship with our banker and as a banker they'd know that your deposits come in from the govt, they'd know how much you'd generally spend monthly, they'd know exactly who your mortgage lender is, they'd see your auto insurance being debited, you car pymt, etc. They'd also know that you get a huge check when the govt reopens. Apply for a short term loan like the smart govt workers did the day they found out (December 20th). The bank puts stipulations in the short term note that is tied to that lump sum pymt you get when govt reopens. IT IS THAT SIMPLE. You work for the govt, you know this happens, you must make provisions yourself. Be smart, work smart. PERIOD! |

Quoting: SovereignMe Maybe also for any Democrats who support the Wall. That would reinvigorate them to press on. You guys should pay attention to your banks. Banks are offering 0% APR to government workers. They look at the last direct deposits and offer a loan up to 6k, and will deposit a check every payday equal to the previous direct deposit. Once government funds kick back in, they take it back. Anyone that thinks that 800k workers are out of pay, for let’s say the next six months, is a fool. If this was you, would you take the free loan? Of course. Fuck this bullshit media/dem spin. Behind every fading culture is a successful mission.---FUGUM |

U.S. Marshals are still on the job and we still get our mail. Only NON-ESSENTIAL employees are effected, like the ones that work at the snack bars in the Smithsonian and other national museums/parks that are closed. Museums/parks that have very little tourist traffic this time of year, anyway. And: since those employees WILL be paid... WHY DOES THE MSM MAKE SUCH A NOISE ABOUT IT? BTW: I'm retired USPS and we all used to growse that we never got to stay home in the winter when everybody else was furloughed! |

Others money-making ideas listed on a tip sheet compiled by the Coast Guard Support Program included selling 'unwanted, large ticket items through the newspaper'; house-sitting; turning a hobby into income; offering music lessons, and lastly, becoming a mystery shopper. 'Retailer are desperate to check how their in-store customer service is and will employee you to shop and rate their service,' the tip sheet promised. daily mail less 50 [link to www.dailymail.co.uk (secure)] Big Banks and Fed credit unions are offering NO interest and low interest loans for those Fed workers affected by the shutdown. Saw it broadcast on news network. Fed workers get backpay so that would be the way to get through the shutdown. Go get your no or low interest loan. Pay it back, along with loan money you didn't spend, when you get back to work. One of the penalties for refusing to participate in politics is that you end up being governed by your inferiors.
