Democratic Senator Patty Murray just EXPOSED the ugly truth about the GOP’s reckless handling of the government shutdown — and it’s absolutely devastating.

In a fiery statement, the Washington Senator made it extremely evident: Republican “leadership” doesn’t give a damn about the American people.

“It is already painfully clear that Republican leadership is not taking any of this seriously. Republican leadership doesn't care if millions of Americans lose their health insurance. Republican leadership does not care if your health care costs go through the roof,” Senator Murray said of the callous Republican reaction to the shutdown.

The Democratic Senator wasn’t finished with her condemnation of the ruling party, however. She next turned her tirade towards the man who is ultimately responsible for the heartless MAGA policies.

“And despite a lot of showboating yesterday,” Murray continued, “Republican leadership obviously doesn't care how long this shutdown goes on. Just consider, if Republican leadership and President Trump actually cared about reopening the government, Trump would not be tweeting AI deepfakes and mariachi music, or bragging about how he can't wait to use a shutdown as an excuse to inflict more pain on the American people.”

“If they actually cared about reopening the government, Russ Vought wouldn't be saying he'll fire everyone he can, no matter if firing them is necessary or not, and no matter how harmful it is or not,” the Senator declaimed.

”If they actually cared about reopening the government, Republican leaders would not be pressing ahead with the same failed bill as yesterday and refusing to finally work with Democrats to finalize a solution. If Republican leadership actually cared about reopening the government, House Republicans would actually be here.”

“Let me say that again, House Republicans are not even here. Are we supposed to believe they are taking this seriously?” Murray accusingly questioned.

It’s no wonder that the Washington Senator was so incensed. Instead of working to reopen the government, the GOP cares more about playing politics than about the people they were elected to serve.

It’s painfully clear: Republicans are holding America hostage. Democrats are fighting to reopen the government. And the American people deserve BETTER than this chaos.

Stand with Democrats. Stand with Senator Murray. Stand with the truth.
