Congratulations, Chuck! Your Schumer Shutdown Has Officially Made the Record Books – RedState
As of today, Tuesday, November 4, Schumer’s shutdown is officially the longest in federal government history. Well done. Along the way, they have harmed millions of Americans, from flight controllers to SNAP recipients to national park personnel to our military. And what have they accomplished with their theater, what have they done to improve the lives of our citizens?
Nada. Nothing. Nothing.
And why are they doing this, and why are they likely to vote to extend it on Tuesday (or at least, refuse to vote for the clean, apolitical continuing resolution that would fund the government and end it)?

The most recent vote, on Oct. 28, failed by a vote of 54-45, with three Democrats crossing the finish line but five more needed.
Remember this from 2013?
Ohh you will love this one!!

Trump should repeat this over and over again.
There are rumors that Democrats are considering ending the gridlock after crucial elections are held across the country today – including California Gov. Gavin Newsom’s shredding of the state constitution, Prop. 50, gubernatorial races in Virginia and New Jersey, and don’t forget that New Yorkers are likely to elect radical extremist Zohran Mamdani as mayor of the Big Apple. For now, however, they will likely continue to prolong the pain:
The previous record was held by the government shutdown in 2018-2019 during President Donald Trump’s first term. Trump signed a law ending this shutdown at 9 p.m. on the 35th day.
Tuesday marks the 35th day of the current budget impasse. And since no agreement has yet been reached between Democrats and Republicans in Congress, it is almost certain that the dispute will continue into the 36th day.

Texas Republican Senator Ted Cruz is disgusted that they are playing with people’s lives. They want to “eliminate their radicals” in today’s elections, he said:
Schumer’s shutdown is now the longest in U.S. history.
The Democrats are keeping the government closed only because they want to eliminate their radicals on Election Day.

Democrats brought us men in women’s sports, discriminatory DEI policies, a rise in political violence, democratic socialism and much more. They have now broken the record for the longest and most futile shutdown ever recorded.
Today’s elections are important – but the midterm elections will be even more important, and then every patriot should remember what they’re doing right now.
Editor’s note: The Schumer ruling is here. Rather than putting the American people first, Chuck Schumer and radical Democrats forced a government shutdown on health care for illegal immigrants. They own that.
