In a move that screams desperation, Democratic Senator Andy Kim (D-NJ) declared on NBC’s “Meet the Press” that Democrats are ready to shut down the federal government over President Trump’s recent actions. The party that claims to be the “adults in the room” is throwing a temper tantrum because Trump is doing what he promised: draining the swamp.
“I cannot support efforts that will continue this lawlessness,” Kim huffed, referring to Trump’s dismantling of bloated federal agencies like the U.S. Agency for International Development (USAID) and the bold moves by Elon Musk’s Department of Government Efficiency (DOGE) to expose waste and corruption.
Let’s get this straight—Trump cuts government bloat, exposes fraudulent spending, and suddenly Democrats are screaming about a “constitutional crisis.” Funny how that works. When bureaucrats funnel billions into foreign aid with zero oversight, it’s “business as usual.” But when Trump demands accountability? Cue the outrage.
Kim even admitted, “I’ve worked through multiple government shutdowns. I would be the last person who would want to get to that stage.” Oh really? Because it sounds like he’s rushing to get there faster than Biden forgetting where he left his ice cream cone.
The so-called “crisis” revolves around Trump’s moves to:
- Shut down USAID—an agency that’s spent billions on foreign pet projects while Americans struggle at home.
- Grant DOGE access to the Treasury’s federal payment system, uncovering billions in waste and fraud.
- Propose bold foreign policy measures, including his plan to stabilize Gaza—which Democrats ridiculously claim amounts to “ethnic cleansing.”
Senator Kim even threatened to withhold Democratic votes for the upcoming government funding bill, whining that Republicans shouldn’t “count on” their support. Well, good. Let the government shut down. Most Americans won’t even notice—except for maybe the D.C. bureaucrats whose paychecks will be paused.
What’s really happening here? Democrats are terrified. Terrified that Trump is exposing how useless and corrupt their beloved government agencies are. Terrified that Musk is revealing where the money actually goes. And terrified that Trump’s bold leadership is exactly what Americans want.
Shutdown or not, Trump’s draining the swamp—and the swamp is panicking.
