I still don't understand why you appear to totally ignore the factual info i gave you re the courts during a shutdown

"Are you seriously going to tell me 240 democrats were wrong about letting the reps shut down the government."

And your continued dogmatism on the 240 ...

[...]Latta's info, in fact, supports the limited court access position i've posted here. The two weeks (Latta said about 10 days) normal activity then after appropriated money runs out non-essential civil cases take a back seat. Or indefinitely delayed. So anti-DOGE cases could in a longer than normal shutdown face long delay. Musk and Trump would have salivated over that.

Also, should add, holding certainty where certainty does not exist is not always the wisest position to take. Just saying, pardner, we will never know for certain. It is too bad we will never know in absolute certainty which would have been the best path to take. You guys could be right, then again maybe not. There should be no certainty there on either side.

I still believe though that the evidence, the actual facts on the matter lean to Schumer's position, and am guessing
there are many more than we know of who agree with him. Noted that more also includes Democrat Congresspeople ..

Furthermore, Schumer was likely honoring the wishes of members who wanted him to save them from themselves. Punchbowl reported Monday that “based on our conversations with Democratic senators, many more Senate Democrats than just the nine who voted with Schumer agreed with his ultimate decision.” This is a familiar strategy in Washington, known as “vote no, hope yes.” Leadership can be a lonely job when tough decisions like this one are required. After all, a leader with no followers is just a guy taking a walk.

And again, just the fact that Musk wanted the shutdown

Elon Musk Has Wanted the Government Shutdown
Sources tell WIRED that Elon Musk has wanted a government shutdown in part because it would potentially make it easier to eliminate the jobs of hundreds of thousands of federal workers.

surely in itself could be seen as a damn good reason for Schumer to refuse to give it to him.

And the facts i have given you against the shutdown are not Republican reasons
for not going for that shutdown, as you have also claimed in the past.

It was Plato who said, “He, O men, is the wisest, who like Socrates, knows that his wisdom is in truth worth nothing”
