""The Radical Left are going to shut down the government and inflict massive pain on the American people unless they get their $1.5 trillion wish list of demands.""
""The Radical Left in Congress shut down the government.""
"On another page, a "shutdown clock" ticks above the words, "Democrats Have Shut Down the Government.""
"An email that was sent out broadly to several agencies across the federal workforce blamed Senate Democrats for "blocking" the House-passed continuing resolution "due to unrelated policy demands," multiple outlets reported on Wednesday."
Federal agency websites displayed partisan messaging that blamed Democrats for the government shutdown. HUD's page showed a pop-up accusing "The Radical Left" of moving to shut down the government unless a $1.5 trillion package was approved, and it later read that "The Radical Left in Congress shut down the government." The White House site streamed looping clips criticizing shutdowns with a "shutdown clock" declaring "Democrats Have Shut Down the Government." The Justice Department banner echoed that message, while other agencies posted closure or limited-update notices citing a lapse in funds. An email circulated across agencies blamed Senate Democrats for "blocking" the House-passed continuing resolution "due to unrelated policy demands." Public Citizen called HUD's message a "blatant violation" of the Hatch Act. Republican officials, including Vice President J.D. Vance, publicly blamed Senate Democrats and characterized services as being taken hostage.
