Bennie Thompson: “Surely, DHS has a right to expect some predictability and certainty as it pursues its counterterrorism and homeland…”

Suffice to say, disaster response is no joke.

There you have it. House Republicans have an hour to debate a nonbinding symbolic resolution but not even a few seconds to do the job that would actually pay our DHS workers. This is the Republican DHS shutdown.

It should go without saying that administration officials should not be using Signal for discussing intelligence matters reserved for the situation room — not to mention doing so incompetently by including members of the public.

That kind of talent, you just don't find it every day.
