The United States of America is not a "Democracy"
It is a "Constitutional Federal Republic"
The difference?
In a pure "democracy" the majority can override minority rights leading to the "tyranny of the majority".
In contrast, a "Republic" is a form of government where the state is ruled by representatives of the citizen body, and sovereignty is exercised through elected officials rather than direct popular vote.
The key distinction is that a republic operates under a constitution that establishes fundamental laws and protects individual rights from being overridden by the majority.

The entire framing of this government shutdown relies on people not understanding the 60 vote threshold. You must have 60 Senators vote for the clean CR bill.
It is not a "simple majority" vote.
In the Senate there are:
Republicans: 53
Democrats: 45
Independents: 2
Here is what the vote totals look like after 13 votes to open the Goverment and fund SNAP.

Thursday Night, September 25th, 2026, 9:25pm: Several clickbait sites have already started appearing across the US regarding potential impacts from Potential Tropical Cyclone Imelda.
The system has yet to develop a low-level center of circulation, but it is expected to further develop over the next 24 hours.
Avoid sharing and allowing hype-casts to spread across your social media feeds.
Prepare now for the possibility of some type of impactful storm. Tropical systems bring heavy rainfall, severe weather, and gusty winds with them. Any of these impacts are possible in Burke County but no one knows to what degree yet.
Don’t panic. We know a lot of residents have PTSD from last year’s Helene. Follow trusted media outlets and our social media accounts. We will all work together to stay ahead of whatever this system may or may not bring our way.
