When questioned about whether Democrats should pass a standalone bill to fund the Supplemental Nutrition Assistance Program (SNAP), Bynum avoided giving a direct answer and instead blamed Republicans and house Speaker Mike Johnson. Further pressing on why Democrats do not agree to &#8220;clean&#8221; continuing resolutions to end the shutdown,Bynum accused the interviewer of having an agenda and reiterated that Republicans include &#8220;poison pills&#8221; in their bills. The exchange highlights Democrats&#8217; unwillingness to take duty for the shutdown and their strategic decision to use it as a political tool, despite facing criticism from allies and the public. The article suggests that <a href=\"https:\/\/amzn.to\/3YuVZYV\" >democrats prioritize political retaliation<\/a> against former President Trump over resolving the shutdown.  <\/p>\n<p class=\"readmore\">\n    <button onclick=\"showReadMore()\" id=\"readmorebtn\">Read more&#8230;<\/button>\n<\/p>\n<hr id=\"line\">\n<span id=\"more\"><\/p>\n<p><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><?xml encoding=\"utf-8\" ?><\/p>\n<section> \t\t\t\t<script>console.log(\"ad slot (AC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC1)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC2)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC3)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (IC4)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_0)\")<\/script><script>console.log(\"ad slot (REP_1)\")<\/script><\/p>\n<p>Democrats&rsquo; responsibility for the ongoing federal government shutdown has forced them to perform some hilarious mental gymnastics.<\/p>\n<p>For instance, Thursday on C-SPAN, Democratic Rep.
