Taliban Mocks Shutdown: Lawmakers ‘Sucking The Blood Of Their Own People’
Notice all these politicians still get paid while veterans are denied access to parks and monuments. Notice that we're still sending billions a year to Israel, Egypt, India, etc. I'm just curious, at what point are these people FIRED FOR INCOMPETENCE?WASHINGTON (CBSDC) — Even the Taliban is mocking the U.S. government over the shutdown.
In a statement released to AFP, the terrorist group accused American lawmakers of “sucking the blood of their own people.”
“The American people should realize that their politicians play with their destinies as well as the destinies of other oppressed nations for the sake of their personal vested interests,” the Taliban said in a statement.

Truck drivers plan 3-day protest on Capital Beltway
Not only is the government (partially) shut down, but now a caravan of truck drivers is looking to shut down traffic around Washington -- as part of a bizarre protest against things that are "destroying America."
The group, Truckers Ride for the Constitution, is trying to attract participants for a demonstration on the Capital Beltway starting this Friday.
"Truck drivers will not haul freight! ... Truckers will lead the path to saving our country if every American rides with them!" the group's Facebook page, which had more than 57,000 "likes" as of Tuesday morning, declares.
The truckers reportedly plan to clog the Beltway by driving "three lanes deep" for three days.
