John Fetterman, a strange Democrat Senator from Pennsylvania, is trying to urge his party to change course but is not being successful. He realizes that the government shutdown being pushed by Chuck Schumer and other Democrat leaders in the U.S. Senate will turn all the power of the government over to the executive branch, something that Trump would probably take and run with in directions that the Democrats do not watch. Trump has already instructed his cabinet to begin lining up areas that are not required by law. People staffing these areas are not to be put on leave until the government is refunded, but will be RIFd (Reduction in Force), a term used by the government to indicate a layoff that may not be reinstated. This falls under his powers as President in order to save money when the government is not operating under Congressional funding.

The upcoming shutdown is already being referred to as "The Schumer Shutdown", an alliteration that will probably play well in the upcoming midterm elections. Schumer, among other things, is demanding the deportations stop and that the existing illegals already in the U.S. be restored to Medicaid and Quest/Food Stamps. He has reportedly also made other demands that he knows Trump will never accept. It may also show the American people how little they need many areas of the government.
 
Fetterman is an odd duck, for sure.

"Democrats" aren't the problem by themselves though, many Republicans have been acting against the interests of America as well. The Uniparty is alive and well.
 
I think that it is possible that Fetterman will change affiliations. He has been dissenting on some of the other things that Democrats are pushing, and was supporting of people who were having the memorials after Charlie Kirk was killed.
If he continues to disagree, they will probably reject him like they have done with other democrats who disagreed with the public proclamations , and he will have to either go independent or as a republican.

This is what happened with Robert Kennedy when he ran for president against Biden in the democrat primaries, and the democrats refused to let him run, so he changed over and ran as an independent instead, and then they denied him the security that he should have had as a presidential candidate.

Not just Kennedy, but Elon Musk, Tulsi Gabbard and many others. Gabbard was a congresswoman from Hawaii as a Democrat, and she just couldn't deal with how wacky the Party elite had gotten. Fetterman seems to be suffering from the same thing. Even Bill Maher is having trouble remaining a Democrat. Joe Rogan was once a Democrat too, but I don't know what he is now. He is not a Democrat though. That is pretty clear.

Charlie Kirk's death seems to have turned the corner for many Democrats. RICO investigations and Antifa arrests as terrorists in Portland yesterday means things have changed. If RICO charges are brought against George Soros, it will allow the Justice Department to freeze his assets within the U.S. until it goes to trial. That would hurt him greatly since it would label him an Organized Criminal gangster.
